Livestock Gross Margin

Livestock Gross Margin (LGM) provides coverage for the difference between the commodity and feeding costs.  If the producer-determined expected gross margin is greater than the actual gross margin, an indemnity is due. All LGM products are federally reinsured.

The LGM insurance policy uses futures prices or adjusted futures prices to determine the expected gross margin and the actual gross margin. They effectively insure the producer’s gross margin (difference between the gross margin guarantee and the actual gross margin at the end of the respective insurance period). LGM does not insure against death, loss, unexpected decrease in milk production, unexpected increases in feed use or any other loss or damage to the producer’s animal(s).
