Abstract

Farmers earn a discount on next year's crop insurance bill by planting cover crops on land where they haven't before - but space is limited and filling fast. The state of Illinois spent $300,000 in the 2020 budget and the same amount again in the 2021 budget to apply a $5-per-acre credit to the insurance bills of cover crop farmers. Eligible applicants receive a $5-per-acre premium discount on the following year's crop insurance invoice for every acre of cover crop they enroll and verify in the program.
