I strongly recommend it, especially in today’s environment of both production and price risks. I’d also recommend they purchase the highest level of coverage they can afford.” The amount of protection varies from 65 to 75 percent, with the cost typically being $3 to $5 per acre. Bulling said the cost varies from county to county and with the amount of protection desired. The cost typically is slightly higher than multi-peril crop insurance but less expensive than crop revenue coverage. “This is a revenue product rather than just crop insurance. It essentially is a money in the bank guarantee for wheat producers,” he explained. Wheat producers still are allowed to sell their crop traditionally as well as collect the guarantee when they purchase the revenue assurance coverage. Oklahoma wheat growers saw the average yield of assurance coverage -- “a money in the bank guaran- “OFB simply is trying to give producers options to reduce their 2002 crop sag to 31 bushels per acre, the lowest tee” -- can help producers eliminate some of the risks the risk of producing a crop.
