​​Calculating your a​nnual premium

Your annual premium is based on:

  • Base premium rate
  • Guaranteed value 
  • Discounts and surcharges (D or S)

The premium is calculated using this formula:

Annual premium = base premium rate × guaranteed value × D or S​

Base premiu​​m rate

The base premium rate is determined at renewal time each year. It may change due to factors like past performance of the plan, changes to claim ​​prices and the level of the Ontario Agricultural Products Insurance Fund​​.

Guarante​ed value

Your guaranteed valu​​e is determined by multiplying your guaranteed production by your selected claim price.

Guaranteed value = guaranteed production × selected claim price

Discounts and​​ surcharges​

If you have had Production Insurance for more than one year, your premium rate may be discounted or surcharged. Discounts and surcharges are determined by comparing your individual claim ​​​rate for a commodity to the claim rate for the commodity as a whole.​​
