[QUOTE="Stocker Steve, post: 1739713, member: 1715"] Crop insurance should more than cover corn growing input costs, but livestock producers may still need to buy feed. I assume the BTOs lock in both feed cost and selling prices just in case corn pricing goes crazy. Smaller cow calf operations are probably the most exposed. Reducing stocking rates (to extend grazing season), and culling some cows (to reduce winter feeding), would reduce risk for cow calf. [/QUOTE]
