Yields are based on actual production records reported to your crop insurance agent and/or company. Sugar beet production guarantees are based on two stages. The first stage provides 60 percent of the final stage guarantee. The first stage is from planting until July 1 in the Pacific Northwest. The final stage provides 100 percent of the final stage production guarantee. The final stage applies to all insured beets that complete the first stage.

Price at which you are compensated per ton in the event of a loss. Choices vary by level of guarantee. Please check with your crop insurance agent for price election changes for the current crop year.

A replant payment is provided for within the crop provisions. A replant payment is not available with Catastrophic Risk Protection Coverage (CAT) policies.

Coverage for late and prevented planting is currently provided within the basic provisions and the sugar beet crop provisions.

This option attaches to the existing sugar beet crop provisions and removes the first stage guarantee. The option provides the opportunity to buy coverage at the full guarantee and receive a full indemnity in the event of a total loss during the early stages of growth. All indemnities are calculated using the final stage guarantee in exchange for the additional premium designated in the actuarial documents. This option is not available with CAT coverage. Indemnity reductions by the failed first crop provisions of the basic policy remain applicable.

CAT coverage is $300 per crop per county. Additional coverage is $30 per crop per county.

Assume 65-percent coverage and a 100-percent price election of $44.00 and an average yield of 26 tons per acre.
