Prices for many farm inputs remain high compared to commodity prices heading into this year’s planting season. The number one question grain producers need to answer is, “how best can you protect the heightened investment in your crops?” This session will review the basics of insurance and how to optimize strategies for corn, soybeans, and wheat growers.
