USDA’s Risk Management Agency is hosting the Livestock Roadshow to educate producers on available livestock insurance programs. This series includes both in-person seminars and online webinars. Historically, Livestock Risk Protection and Livestock Gross Margin products have been underutilized but recent changes have made them both more available to producers. “The participation in LRP has increased dramatically, but LGM hasn’t really seen that big increase,” said Cody Lovercamp, risk management specialist, RMA. LGM is now offered once per week instead of once per month and is available for beef, dairy and swine herds. There are also no imits for the number of animals covered under LGM.
