What percentage of approved yield can a producer insure under the yield protection plan?

Under the yield protection plan, a producer can insure a percentage of their approved yield that typically ranges from 50% to 85%. This range is designed to provide a safety net for producers facing yield losses due to factors like adverse weather or pest infestations, while still allowing the producer to remain invested in the success of their crop.

By offering coverage that starts at half of the approved yield and extends to 85%, the policy encourages producers to manage their production risks effectively, while also ensuring they have adequate financial support in case of yield shortfalls. This level of flexibility allows farmers to choose an insurance level that aligns with their risk tolerance and farming practices.

The options that do not fall within this specified range do not reflect the established parameters of crop insurance yield protection, so they do not represent the correct coverage percentage available to producers.
