Boone Co. Iowa		I am just reviewing a local insurance agency presentation.

The presenter did a look - back to 2006 on if you had taken ECO and SCO every year, based on production.

A guy would have a 345% return on investment.

And, presenter also noted that, looking back, a guy would have been a lot better off forward contracting grain in April, May June.

So, what to do this year? Save a bunch of $ and self insure?
