The article provides an analysis of the decision farmers need to make between ARC-CO (Agriculture Risk Coverage – county) and PLC (Price Loss Coverage) for the 2022 crop year. It explains that for most commodities, the decision indicator suggests that ARC-CO is expected to pay more per base acre when the December cash – reference price ratio equals or exceeds 100%, while PLC is expected to pay more when the ratio is less than 100%. However, both programs are expected to make little to no payment for most program commodities in 2022. The article also mentions that crop insurance Supplemental Coverage Option (SCO) is available only for acres elected into PLC, not ARC-CO or ARC-IC, and farmers need to consider the potential tradeoffs of buying SCO and crop insurance Enhanced Coverage Option (ECO) when making their decision.
