How does this sound.........three year average yield from crop insurance x three year average price from crop insurance (revenue plan basis), then 30% of whatever that number is?

Or........what other methods are used?

If you search it, your ag extension office may have a site that posts averages in your area.

Well, around here those numbers would end up being high rent. J/s.

What crops and rotation? 2 years of corn and one of beans is different than the other way around. Either way it sounds high for my area.
