Mega Menu

Mega menu is possible in BS5 but we will need to create a custom template layout for the navigation widget. The following is a hard-coded example.

Card Hero Template

This is the default Bootstrap 5 Hero card.

Font Awesome 6

FA6+ icons will work on all widgets.

The FMH Icon box will need a new version created because the styling is broken in Bootstrap 5 templates (this has nothing to do with FA).

FMH Icon Widget

Icons can now be used in Content blocks by pasting the HTML tags from www.fontawesome.com into the HTML editor.

Here are some new icons from Font Awesome 6

Accordion

This is the first item's accordion body. It is shown by default, until the collapse plugin adds the appropriate classes that we use to style each element. These classes control the overall appearance, as well as the showing and hiding via CSS transitions. You can modify any of this with custom CSS or overriding our default variables. It's also worth noting that just about any HTML can go within the .accordion-body, though the transition does limit overflow.

Quality Control Review FAQ

Quality Control Review FAQ

What can an Insured do to prepare for a review?

Third party documentation (i.e. summary/settlement sheets from the elevator) is required when applicable and available. Insureds are expected to have available hard copy records that will 1) support the total production raised for the crop/county/year being reviewed and 2) that can demonstrate how production was kept separate between various units, practices and types (if applicable).

Insureds will also want make themselves available to meet with the quality control reviewer as the reviews will need to be completed before the claims can be processed.

What can Agents do to prepare for a review?

Agents can encourage their producers to begin assembling the production history documentation that will be necessary to complete the APH Review. Agents may also want to be sure all current year policy documents have been submitted to the FMH home office so that the Contract Review can be completed without delay.

How does the review process begin?

Once a claim is reported, FMH adjusters will be in contact with policyholders and/or agents. They will discern which policies will need a review and take the steps necessary to initiate these reviews. At that point FMH’s Compliance Field Specialist will oversee the review completion to ensure that all the components of the review are completed by objective and unbiased persons and according to RMA procedures.

Crop Insurance and Grain Marketing

Nov 27, 2018, 13:03 by Ammie McGraw
Help Farmers Leverage Crop Insurance to Provide a Safety Net for Grain Marketing

Crop insurance agents don’t need to be experts in grain marketing to help farmers use their crop insurance as part of a grain marketing strategy. Agents can help their customers by showing them how a policy can protect their bushels when marketing grain. Likewise, if the customer has specific goals with marketing grain, their agent can help determine the best coverage to meet those goals.

Ken Ripley explains the relationship between grain marketing and crop insurance from his perspective as a farmer and FMH Strategic Account Manager. Ripley says, “A customer should feel comfortable marketing their protected bushels. Every farmer that buys an insurance policy has the possibility to market grain. Many people don’t understand how to use it.”

Giving farmers the confidence to sell early is valuable because grain prices tend to be lowest near harvest, and many farmers risk selling grain at the bottom third of the market while waiting for prices to bounce back.

With the changing agriculture industry and global market, there are many ways a farmer can market grain including direct sales, buying a futures contract with the local co-op, or hedging future prices.

For example, say a customer is concerned about not producing enough grain to fulfill a futures contract. If the customer has a policy that protects the contracted bushels, then he or she wouldn’t need to grow the extra crop to fulfill that contract.

Or, in the instance of hail damage, the farmer would be able to negotiate with futures contract buyers and potentially move the contract into the next crop year because of the safety net of his or her policy.

Each option offers a different way to market grain, with different levels of risk and benefits. Ripley says that grain marketing works better as a long-term plan to benefit the overall farm operation. “It just depends on what flexibility you want to have with that marketing plan. Using my crop insurance-protected bushels is the starting point to determine what price I need in order to sell,” Ripley says. As a farmer, he tries to keep an eye on the seasonality of the market and have a sell-by date.

When it comes to crop insurance policies, a revenue policy is a more robust coverage option for farmers interested in grain marketing. It better protects against market fluctuations unlike a yield-only policy.

An FMH private product like RAMP can help farmers protect the bushels not covered by their MPCI policy. With the additional coverage, the farmer gains confidence to sell grain sooner, avoiding later market drops.

Agents can use their understanding of crop insurance to give the customer confidence to market grain with futures contracts, including cueing them into what bushels are protected, allowing them to make the most out of their insurance product.
