Using Crop Insurance to Insure Profits
In this member video, Kelly Garrett shares his approach to crop insurance. Kelly breaks down how he uses his crop insurance not only as a disaster policy, but as a way to insure income and profit. Kelly explains how his approach to crop insurance has altered his crop rotations and mitigated his risk all the while insuring profits. Bottom line is he sleeps a lot better at night as a result.
