Buy-Up Example
• Forage Sorghum– 100 Acres– 2 T Approved Yield– 2014 Price $137.33– 100% share– Not SDA/LR/BF– Selected 60/100 Coverage Level

Buy-Up Example (Continued)
• Premium Calculation– Yield x Coverage Level x Price x Acres x Share =
Guarantee (used only for calculation of premium)
– Guarantee x .0525 = Premium• So:– 2T x .60 x $137.33 x 100 Ac x 100% = $16,480– $16,480 x .0525 = $865 Premium for Buy-Up– The $250 Administrative Fee also applies.

Buy-Up Example (Continued)
• Harvests 1 ton of Forage Sorghum. There was an eligible cause of loss.– 2 T Yield x 60% coverage level = 1.2 T coverage– 1.2 T coverage – 1 T harvest = .2 T loss– .2 T loss x $137.33 x 100 Ac x 100% share =
$2,747 NAP payment.
