Area Revenue Protection Insurance

Crop insurance that provides protection against widespread loss of revenue, yield or a combination of both in a county.

Product Overview

Understanding Area Revenue Protection Insurance

Area Revenue Protection is an insurance product designed to protect farmers' revenue by offering coverage based on the aggregate revenue of a specific geographic area rather than individual farm-level data. By considering the revenue performance of a broader region, Area Revenue Protection provides a more comprehensive risk management solution that accounts for both yield variations and changes in crop prices.
