Abstract

(APH) yield—The basis for determining the producer’s guarantee under either the multi-peril crop insurance program or most federally subsidized revenue insurance policies. The producer’s APH yield is calculated as a 4to 10-year simple average of the producer’s actual yield on the insured parcel of land. If a producer does not have actual yields, the series (up to 4 years) is filled in with a “transition yield,” based on either county or program yields.
