1 An Example Kansas Soybean Claim.  A Kansas Soybean grower with a 50 bushels APH X 70% coverage X higher of harvest, plant price of $6.18 would have had a revenue guarantee of $216.30.  If this grower produced 15 bushels, then based on today's price of $5.93 the revenue to count would be $88.95 and the indemnity payment would be the difference between the revenue to count and the revenue guarantee for gross indemnity payment of $127.35 (before premium deduction).
                     
2 RA uses the same Harvest Prices for Soybeans as CRC but November average for Corn.
