Annual Forage is a federally-reinsured pilot program that provides coverage for acreage planted annually to forage, used for grazing, silage, chop, grains, or as hay for livestock. This program consists of twelve growing seasons to cover crops planted any time during the year. Producers may select from a variety of coverage levels, productivity factors and two-month index intervals to personalize their plan. Losses are calculated based on the deviation from normal precipitation for the grid and index interval(s) selected.
