US federally subsidized crop insurance has monetized field crop production risk into a multi-billion dollar income flow to farmers. Monetized value has grown with higher market value of production, higher premium subsidies, higher coverage levels, and, recently, higher use of area add-up insurance. Monetization will continue as the 2025 Farm Bill has raised premium subsidies for nearly all insurance products including an 80% subsidy for 95% coverage ECO area add-up insurance.
