Appendix I to: Crop Insurance Savings Accounts: A Viable Alternative to Crop Insurance?

Author

Listed:
  • Ramirez, Octavio A.
Abstract
This appendix is comprised of two sections. The first section entitled “Yield Variability and Premium Estimation Error” establishes a range of plausible levels of crop insurance premium estimation error corresponding to typical corn production scenarios in the Midwestern US. The second section entitled “Distribution of Crop Insurance Subsidies” assesses the potential impact of such levels of premium estimation error on the distribution of the Crop Insurance subsidies across participating corn producers.
