SCO and ECO Crop Insurance
The Supplemental Coverage Option (SCO) and Enhanced Coverage Option (ECO) provide additional bands of coverage on top of your individual crop insurance policy. These policies allow you to increase coverage to 86% (SCO) and up to 95% (ECO). SCO and ECO use area yields and revenue to determine loss, regardless of your farm’s actual production.
