Abstract

The 2024 price discovery period used to determine projected prices and volatility factors for Federally-sponsored corn and soybean crop insurance products is completed for areas with a March 15th sales closing date (SCD). For the majority of the corn belt, the approved Projected Price (PP) for corn is $4.66 and the Volatility Factor is 0.19, and for soybeans, the Projected Price is $11.55 with a Volatility Factor of 0.15. These represent substantially lower prices than in recent years and will result in lower premiums in general and correspondingly lower insured revenue levels.
