Abstract

"Livestock risk protection (LRP) insurance offers producers a way to manage risk associated with declining livestock prices (see Figure 1 for feeder cattle future prices). It does not protect against other perils such as disease or death. The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Risk Management Agency (RMA) administers LRP insurance products. It is sold by approved livestock insurance agents throughout the year (running from July 1 to June 30). LRP premiums may be subsidized by the federal government if the producer meets conservation compliance. Policies are available in Missouri for feeder cattle, fed cattle and swine. Insured producers receive an indemnity when the actual ending value of livestock, as determined by RMA, is less than the coverage price chosen by the producer."--Page 1.
