Resumen
Descripción
A comparative analysis was performed looking at using cash, futures, options, or
insurance to manage the price of calves for cow-calf producer. Risk can be reduced with
the futures market and with options or LRP insurance. Options and LRP insurance are
equivalent in the amount of risk that is reduced. AGR-Lite does not appear to be an
effective policy at reducing risk for cow-calf producers.
