1 Livestock Risk Protection Insurance: How Does It Work James Mintert, Ph.D. Professor & Extension State Leader Department of Agricultural Economics Kansas State University
2 LRP-What Is It? Livestock Risk Protection Insurance LRP for feeder cattle available in KS Provides protection against a decline in CME Feeder Cattle Price Index while you own cattle CME Feeder Cattle Price Index is a 7 day weighted average of cash feeder cattle prices across the U.S. LRP for slaughter cattle is also available in KS Provides protection against a decline in the 5 Area Weighted Average Price reported by USDA
3 LRP Similar to Buying Put Options CME Feeder Cattle Index is used to cash settle Feeder Cattle Futures Since both CME Feeder Cattle futures and LRP use the CME Feeder Cattle Index to settle, purchase of LRP for Feeder Cattle is similar (but not identical) to purchasing a CME Feeder Cattle put option USDA s 5 Area Weighted Average Price is used to settle LRP for Slaughter Cattle Purchase of LRP for Slaughter Cattle is similar (but not identical) to purchasing a CME Live Cattle put option
4 Restrictions On Cattle Eligible For Coverage Feeder cattle must weigh less than 900 lbs. at the end of the insurance period Fed cattle must weigh between 1,000 and 1,400 lbs. at the end of the insurance period
5 What s Eligible for Coverage? Can insure steers, heifers, Brahma and dairy breeds Coverage is now available for 13, 17, 21, 26, 30, 34, 39, 43, 47, or 52 week periods Cattle weighing less than 600 lbs. (at end of insurance period) can now be insured and will receive a 10% price adjustment to reflect the fact that lighter weight cattle generally trade at a premium to heavier cattle
6 How Does LRP Work? To use LRP to protect against a price decline, you would purchase LRP insurance for a particular set of cattle (# of hd. & ending wt.) you must choose Coverage Price (this is similar to an option s Strike Price) End Date (e.g., the date coverage ends) Price you pay is known as LRP premium
7 Definitions Specific Coverage Endorsement (SCE) is an endorsement to the insurance policy necessary to provide coverage Expected End Value The expected ending live weight times expected end price Coverage Level The percent of the expected end value that is covered by the policy
8 Coverage Price Definitions Level of protection provided by policy on a dollar per cwt basis Expected End Value X Coverage Level = Coverage Price End Date The date that coverage period ends for each contract (SCE) LRP buyer selects weeks of coverage desired within limits set by RMA
9 Definitions Actual ending feeder cattle value equals steer weight times CME Feeder Cattle Price Index CME Feeder Cattle Price Index based upon sale prices for Medium and Large Frame #1-2 steers weighing from pounds (changing to pounds next summer) CME Feeder Cattle Price Index is available at Actual Fed Cattle End Value equals steer weight times USDA 5 Area Weighted Average Price Prices reported by USDA at
10 LRP Feeder Cattle Premium To calculate actual LRP premium you must know Number of cattle ready for market (weighing less than 9.0 cwt) on End Date Target Weight per head Ownership share in cattle
11 LRP Feeder Cattle Premium Insured Value Equals Number of Head x Target Weight (cwt) x Coverage Price x Ownership Share (%) Total Premium Equals Insured Value x Rate Producer Premium Equals Total Premium minus USDA Subsidy USDA Subsidy = 13% of Total Premium
12 LRP Premium Calculation Example An operation has 100 head of feeder cattle Expects to market the feeder cattle at a target weight of 7.00 cwt each Insured share is 100 percent Assume Expected End Price (updated daily by RMA on its website) is $ per live cwt
13 Premium Calculation Example Producer selects a coverage price which is a % of the Expected End Price published by RMA Assume producer selects $100 per cwt. coverage price (e.g., 92% of RMA s expected ending price) For this coverage price, the rate is 1.449% The premium subsidy is 13 percent
14 Premium Calculation Example 100 head * 7 cwt = 700 cwt. 700 cwt. * coverage price ($100) = $70,000 $70,000 * insured share (1.00) = $70,000 Insured Value
15 Premium Calculation Example $70,000 * rate of.01449= $1,014 Total Premium $1,014 *.13 (subsidy) = $132 subsidy $1,014 (total premium) minus $132 subsidy = producer premium of $882 = $1.26/cwt. producer paid premium
16 Calculating Indemnity Indemnity is payable if actual ending price is less than coverage price Calculate indemnity by: Multiplying number of head by target weight (in live cwt.) Subtract actual ending price from coverage price Multiplying total weight by difference between actual ending & coverage price
17 Indemnity Calculation Example An operation has 100 head of fed cattle Has a target weight of 7.00 cwt. per head Insured share is 100 percent
18 Indemnity Calculation Example Expected End Price for appropriate insurance period is $ per live cwt. Producer selects a coverage price of $100 per cwt. (e.g., 92% of Exp. End Price) Actual End Price is $80 per cwt. (e.g., CME Feeder Cattle Index = $80 on End Date)
19 Indemnity Calculation Example 100 head * 7.00 cwt = 700 cwt. Subtracting actual ending price of $80 from the coverage price of $100 = $20/cwt. Multiplying 700 cwt. by $20/cwt = $14,000 Multiplying $14,000 by insured share of 1.00 = indemnity payment of $14,000
20 Indemnity Calculation Example What happens if actual ending price = $105? Subtracting actual ending price of $105 from the coverage price of $100 = neg. $5/cwt. Therefore, no indemnity payment is made to producer This is analogous to a feeder cattle put option that expires worthless
21 LRP Coverage Availability Available from about 5 p.m. until 9 a.m. Central Time during the week Not Available on Federal holidays Not Available if RMA web site is down
22 LRP Coverage Prices & Levels Price guarantees change daily Premiums change daily Coverage available ranges from 70% to maximum of 95% of Expected End Price, but maximum guarantee on most days is less than 95%
23 Premium Producer may obtain premium quotes via RMA s Premium Calculator available on USDA-RMA s web site Premium must be paid on day LRP insurance is purchased for coverage to be provided Rates available at Or use link on AgManager Under livestock reports

25 LRP Summary LRP protects against a decline in Feeder cattle price level as measured by CME Feeder Cattle Price Index Fed cattle price level as measured by USDA s s 5 Area Weighted Average Price LRP does NOT guarantee the basis LRP does not guarantee a cash price Policy does not cover any other peril
26 LRP Summary Insure the exact number of head that you choose Flexible contract size matches small operations vs. Feeder cattle futures that represents about 67 steers weighing 750 pounds Live cattle futures that represents about 33 steers weighing 1200 pounds Can incrementally minimum price a few head at a time
