Proving Yields: 

Proving Yields Actual Production History (APH) is a simple average of 4-10 years of actual yields, based on a producer’s records. If a producer does not have records for four (4) years: A transition yield is used to complete the four (4) year minimum base. ‘T’ yields are based on a county’s average yield determined by USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS).

The Reason to Prove Yields: 

The Reason to Prove Yields When using ‘T’ yields, a significant loss would have to occur before an indemnity would be paid.
