Management Experience Transfer

The Management Experience Transfer index is used to establish a starting yield for a crop where no individual yield previously exists. This more accurately reflects the individual customer’s farm management abilities than a Risk Zone average yield.

• Your MET index is greater than 1.0 if your yield experience on other insured crops is better than the area average.
• Your MET index is less than 1.0 if your yield experience on other insured crops is lower than the area average.
• New customers with no previous yield history start with a MET index of 1.0. Once your yields are established, they are updated using your individual annual production information.
