Claim price
The claim price is 80 per cent of the weighted average contract price set by licensed buyers and approved by Agricorp.
Calculating your annual premium
Your annual premium is based on:
- Base premium rate
- Guaranteed production (GP)
- Industry price
The premium is calculated using this formula:
Annual premium = GP × base premium rate × Industry price
The industry price for 2023 is $2.2994/lbs.
Base premium rate
The base premium rate is determined at renewal time each year and is based on your chosen coverage level. It may change due to factors like past performance of the plan, changes to claim prices and the level of the Production Insurance Fund.
Volume discount
Your premium rate incorporates a volume discount. This sets a different premium rate per acre based on the volume of your GP and your coverage level.
