Fixed Cost Margin Coverage:

You cover your inputs, we’ll protect your fixed costs

Confident you’ll earn enough to cover your input costs?

Fixed Cost Margin Coverage offers producers a unique approach to insuring a portion of their fixed costs, and it stacks nicely with other insurance products. If you’re a farmer that typically earns enough each season to comfortably cover your direct input costs, you’re still faced with fixed costs that aren’t protected by traditional farm insurance products. With the Fixed Cost Margin option, you’ll be responsible for your input costs while our coverage will insure a gross-margin you select to guarantee enough revenue to cover a portion of your fixed costs.

Your revenue is guaranteed at gross-margin you choose.

Features & Benefits

Strengthen your existing crop insurance portfolio

Fixed Cost Margin Coverage (FCMC) was designed to bring the unique benefits of production cost insurance to farmers with existing crop insurance products. If you’re confident in your current mix of coverage but want to add protection for your fixed costs, the FCMC option will increase your protection while stacking effectively with existing products.

You’ll cover your direct (input) costs, we’ll protect your fixed costs

With Fixed Cost Margin Coverage (FCMC), you’re responsible for covering losses up to the point they meet your farm’s direct input costs. Most often, farmers that choose this option have other coverages in place to help bridge any shortfalls. FCMC stacks with those other coverages effectively and offers protection for your gross-margin above your direct inputs. With FCMC’s revenue protection, your ability to fund your fixed costs and keep farming your way is protected.
