 Short crops have long tails with early peak, 5 of 8

For RP holders, Consider Hedging
           Production
 Nov 2012 contract on 7/25/2012 was at
  $16.00 per bushel

 Many hold RP policies at 75% and higher
  coverage levels
   Uses higher of projected or harvest price
   When harvest price is above projected prices,
    RP makes payments on yield below yield
    guarantee (TA-APH yield times coverage level)


                                                    15
RP and Hedging

 TA-APH yield = 45 bushels
 Coverage level = 80%

 Make payments when yield below 36
  bushels (45 bushels x .8)

 Shortfall at harvest price, when
  harvest price is above projected price
  ($12.55)                                 16
 Current prices are not good price

 Can hedge up to production guarantee




                                         17
Pre-harvest Hedging


 Good strategy to spread sales, including
  pre-harvest

 Hedging losses are occurring on spring
  hedges

 Be consistent
