RFD - TV Television

AgriLogic, Inc. and Ag Lifestyles have put together a series of television programs discussing agricultural risk management and crop insurance products, for New York growers, with funding provided by the USDA - Risk Management Agency.

Ag Lifestyles will air 6 different programs on RFD-TV. The Specialty Crop Show will focus on crop insurance products for specialty crops, such as Apples, Grapes, Onions, Sweet Corn, and Greens, covering Actual Production History (APH), Adjusted Gross Revenue (AGR), and AGR-Lite. The Row Crop Show will focus on crop insurance products designed for traditional row crop growers, covering APH, Crop Revenue Coverage (CRC), Indexed Income Protection (IIP), and Group Risk Plan (GRP). The third show will include additional risk management techniques such as hedging strategies, forward contracting and put options, and the importance of documentation. Another show will be an updated Specialty Crop Show that will include farmer interviews and roundtable discussions with a farmer, agricultural lender and crop insurance agent. The fifth show will focus on Row Crop Yield insurance programs and includes an interview with the Director of the RMA Raleigh, NC Regional Office. The last show will focus on Row Crop Revenue insurance programs with both the Crop Yield and Crop Revenue shows having farm visit footage.
