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.

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).

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.

ECO 2025: WHAT THE NEW SUBSIDY RATE MEANS FOR INSUREDS

Sep 10, 2024, 10:47 by Elise Hepker
The federal Enhanced Coverage Option (ECO) insurance product provides area-based coverage for a portion of the deductible of an insured’s underlying policy, offering coverage up to the 95-percent level.

This July the USDA Risk Management Agency announced a subsidy increase for 2025 and expanded coverage options that makes ECO more attractive for more farmers.

Below, find excerpts from FMH’s latest InsureCast episode on how ECO performed in 2023 and how the product can be incorporated into risk management plans for 2025.

How ECO Performed in 2023

The USDA RMA released the final county yields for 2023 for all major spring crops in mid-June, including corn and soybeans. Despite high crop yields in some places across the country, low spring prices — especially a 17 percent decrease on corn — triggered a larger-than-average number of ECO payments. “The price was the story for 2023,” said Ryan Benes, FMH Assistant Vice President — Regional Sales Manager. “Essentially, if your county didn’t have at least 115 percent of your expected yield, you would have gotten an ECO payment.”

The protection ECO offers during large price drops makes it an impactful product for those who elect it, according to Benes.

“One of the reasons we love ECO is because of how well it mimics price protection,” he said. “The value you get with it is good.”

Ken Ripley, FMH Assistant Vice President — Regional Sales Manager, pointed out that challenging weather and price conditions proved that ECO was able to provide dependable coverage for farmers. “It’s when you have the combination of the droughts and the big price drops, the area plans provide that protection,” he said.

Subsidy Change for 2025

The ECO subsidy rate for the 2025 crop year is moving from 44 percent to 65 percent — a 21-point increase. The change results in significant premium savings for farmers who elect ECO as part of their risk management plan.

According to Benes, this subsidy change could prompt numerous changes in the number of farmers who choose ECO. “I think it opens up more regions to ECO,” he said. “I think we’ll see it sold and bought more outside of where it’s been bought previously.” He also expects to see more ECO coverage given that the product is available on over 36 crops for 2025. 

In addition, ECO is not tied to FSA programs, nor does it require an underlying MPCI policy, giving farmers more flexibility to move their risk strategies toward a higher trigger on a county base. 

Benes noted that the subsidy increase will likely mean a shift away from other product options, such as Margin Protection and RAMP. “I do think we’ll see some shift away from Margin Protection because it will not have the advantage of this additional subsidy,” he said. 

According to Ripley, the subsidy change could also increase the number of producers who elect the ECO+™ endorsement from FMH, which provides even more top-end coverage on an individual basis. “This year, where producers were hit worse than the county was, ECO+ picked them up where the county stopped, which is what the product’s designed to do,” he said. “It’s no question that ECO+ is going to be a very popular product next spring.”

Impact to 2025 Risk Management Decisions

Both Ripley and Benes noted that the subsidy change could substantially influence producers’ buying decisions for 2025. “With that subsidy level, the value just becomes so significant. It’s hard to ignore,” said Benes. He described the possible savings: “If you went all in and bought ECO at 100 percent last year, it was probably around $30 per acre for a lot of farmers. This next year, that’s going to be $18.75 per acre. It makes it more affordable.”
