PRF insurance calculator: what your grid would have paid, every year since 1951
Sigurd Lindquist ( October, 2026 )
Summary
This resource provides an interactive calculator to help livestock producers and hay growers evaluate Pasture, Rangeland, and Forage (PRF) rainfall-index insurance for the 2027 crop year. Users can select their geographic grid, enter acreage and ownership share, and compare coverage levels, productivity factors, and insured two-month intervals. The calculator estimates insurance premiums, USDA premium subsidies, potential indemnity payments, and historical payouts using precipitation data from 1951 through 2025 and 2027 insurance rates. It also explains enrollment deadlines, eligibility requirements, program changes, and limitations of rainfall-index coverage. This resource helps producers assess forage production risks, compare insurance options, and make informed decisions about managing drought-related financial uncertainty.
