Crop Insurance Pricing
RMA uses various methods to determine crop price and value for crop insurance policies. Prices are based on CME, CBOT, and local markets, depending on the policy.
Row crop policies use two prices to determine revenue coverage. The “Spring Projected Harvest Price” (announced March 5) is set using the average closing prices of December corn contract and November soybean contract during February. The “Final Harvest Price” (announced November 5) is the average of the closing price of December corn and November soybeans during October.
