Yield Protection

Yield Protection (YP) protects against a production loss for crops for which revenue protection is available but was not selected.  Yield Protection (YP) also provides prevented planting and replant protection. Coverage is expressed as a production guarantee (approved yield times the coverage level).

The Yield Protection (YP) yield guarantee is approved yield multiplied by the selected level of coverage and the insured acreage.  Coverage levels are available from 50% to 75%, in 5% increments (80% and 85% coverage levels are available in limed areas) of the approved yield up to 100% of the projected price, which is determined by the Commodity Exchange Price Provisions.
