COUNTRY financial(r) introduces new crop insurance coverages, adding comprehensive coverage options for illinois farmers. Farmers encouraged to review and select their coverage options before march 15 deadline. Illinois farmers making crop insurance decisions for 2026 will have more options from COUNTRY Financial. COUNTRY announces the launch of PECO, a new product designed to provide higher individual coverage options for corn and soybeans. "PECO builds on federal crop insurance by lowering the deductible that triggers a claim, reflecting farmers' individual improved yields and the rising costs of production. This means greater protection and more flexibility for farmers," said Brian Davis, Product Analyst, Crop Underwriting at COUNTRY. With PECO, farmers choose the coverage they need. * Maximize coverage- those concerned with covering every bushel or dollar of revenue possible can elect an 85% MPCI policy and use PECO to increase coverage level up to 95%. (See chart, Example #1). * SCO Bridge- using an MPCI policy of 80% or less, add SCO to provide an area bridge policy up to the PECO policy. This covers shallow and deep losses, with the added help of an area plan in the middle. (See chart, Example #2) * Gap coverage- reduce your MPCI coverage to provide protection on deeper losses, while using PECO to address shallow losses. This leaves the middle unprotected but is useful for farmers who consistently produce above their APH and have lower debt obligations. (Example #3)
