Farmer Response to Modified Crop Insurance: A Case Study of Corn in Indiana
调查印第安纳州玉米生产者对更精细的产量风险分类、替代保费设定方法以及更高产量保证加共保的反应，并评估区域产量保险的效果。
Abstract This study examines the potential effects on crop insurance of more detailed yield risk classifications combined with alternative premium‐setting techniques, and higher yield guarantees combined with coinsurance. Corn producers in Tippecanoe County, Indiana, were surveyed for their responses to these changes. Response to area yield insurance is also evaluated. The modified MPCI program, area yield insurance, and two types of disaster payment programs are also compared in terms of their costs and coverage.
