Premiums are Revenue Neutral Administrative costs are subsidized, all premiums are used only to pay indemnities, which are intended balance over time High price volatility - higher premium Insure 10 consecutive months, pay less per month than when fewer months insured $0.00 deductibles costs more than $1.50 deductible

49 Dairy Gross Margin Federally reinsured Flexible Contract size Time periods Deductibles

50 Time Periods. Twelve insurance periods each calendar year All or any portion of expected milk can be covered Maximum milk enrollment 240,000 Cwts. Annually Portions of expected monthly production can be stacked
