The indemnity at the end of the eleven-month insurance period is the difference, if positive, between the gross margin guarantee and the actual gross margin. The Livestock Gross Margin for Dairy Cattle Insurance Policy uses futures prices for corn, soybean meal, and milk to determine the expected gross margin and the actual gross margin. The price the producer receives at the local market is not used in these calculations. </span></div>

The mix of target milk marketings per dairy cow and target feed rations are supplied by the producer. This feature allows the producer to select feed rations and production levels that best reflect their actual production situation. The resulting bundle of options effectively insures the producer’s gross margin, milk revenue minus feed costs, over the insurance period. <br>
<br>
LGM works as a bundle of options that pay the difference, if positive, between the value at purchase of the options and the value at the end of a certain time period. So, LGM would pay the difference, if positive, between the gross margin guarantee and the actual gross margin, as defined in the policy provisions. </p></div>

                            <span class="dropLetterA hidden-print">A</span> <div class="faqAnswer"><p>Producers can determine the corn and soybean meal equivalents of their feeds. The only restriction is that the feed rates must be within the bounds listed in Question 11. The LGM-Dairy Commodity Exchange Endorsement contains a table with suggested feed conversion rates. Below is an example feed conversion based on the suggested rates. If a producer fed 140 bushels of oats and 0.2 tons of meat meal, he/she would need to convert these to corn and soybean meal equivalents.   <br>
<br>
The conversion for the oats can be done in two steps: <br>
<br>
<strong>Step 1.</strong> Converting feed to tons.</p>
<p style="margin-left: 40px;">140 bushels of oats X (32 pounds/1 bushel of oats) X (1 ton/2000 pounds) = 2.24 tons</p>
<p><strong>Step 2.</strong> Using the suggested conversion rates for corn and soybean meal equivalents. </p>
<p style="margin-left: 40px;">2.24 tons of oats X 0.120 = 0.2688 tons of soybean meal equivalents <br>
2.24 tons of oats X 0.779 = 1.7450 tons of corn equivalents <br>
<br>
The conversion for the meat meal can be done in one step as the meat meal is already measured in tons: <br>
<br>
Using the suggested conversion rates for corn and soybean meal equivalents. <br>
0.2 tons of meat meal X 1.227 = 0.2454 tons of soybean meal equivalents <br>
0.2 tons of meat meal X -0.349 = -0.0698 tons of corn equivalents <br>
<br>
So the corn and soybean meal equivalents for 140 bushels of oats and 0.2 tons of meat meal are 0.5142 tons of soybean meal (0.2688 + 0.2454) and 1.6752 tons of corn equivalent (1.7450 – 0.0698).</p>
<p>Feeds should be combined when creating corn and soybean meal equivalents. Please notice that many of the protein meal feeds have negative corn equivalent values. </p></div>
