The three men represent the fourth, fifth and sixth generations to work the Sheets farm, which has been in their family for 100 years.<\/p>\n<p>While his family has been working with the Silveus Insurance Group agency to purchase federal crop insurance and hail insurance since the 1940s, with guidance from <a href=\"https:\/\/silveuscropins.com\/team_member\/scott-silveus\/\">Scott Silveus<\/a>, Sheets added <a href=\"https:\/\/silveuscropins.com\/preparing-crop-year-2017-3-crop-insurance-products-look-now\/\">PriceFlex<\/a> to the family\u2019s risk management portfolio in 2014, 2016 and for 2017. This private insurance product offers to lock in higher prices for the next year\u2019s crop insurance revenue guarantee.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201c<\/strong>We started with <a href=\"https:\/\/silveuscropins.com\/price-flex\/\">PriceFlex<\/a> in December that first year, to set a higher price for our corn in Elkhart County. We have three counties of corn, so we hoped to capture a higher price for the Spring,\u201d Sheets says. \u201cScott brought it to our attention, and 2013 had been a higher corn price year so we just felt it was good to lock something in.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And it worked out. \u201cThat first year we got something like $6 a bushel,\u201d Sheets recalled, \u201cwhen without PriceFlex protection, it would have been around $5.15.\u201d Since that first test, Sheets says PriceFlex has helped him manage price-risk challenges by locking in a higher price to start with.<\/p>\n<p>While Sheets doesn\u2019t consider himself an expert yet, he has an approach that\u2019s working and some good advice for other farmers: \u201cI rely on a lot on Scott Silveus\u2019 expertise,\u201d he says. \u201cThe best advice I can give to other farmers is to just try to stay in tune with the markets, and stay in touch with your <a href=\"https:\/\/silveuscropins.com\/agents\/\">agent<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To find out more about adding PriceFlex to your crop insurance risk management strategy, or how a Silveus Crop Insurance
