    Nick Paulson and, Jonathan Coppess (February, 2014)
    Summary

    The Crop Insurance Title of the 2014 Farm Bill includes provisions for the creation of a new crop insurance program referred to as the Supplemental Coverage Option (SCO). SCO is an optional program which will be available starting in the 2015 crop year. SCO provides supplemental coverage which mimics the producer's individual insurance program choice, covering a portion of the deductible using a county-level measure of yield or revenue.
