8,800 bu is forward contracted past the insurance guarantee

The Revenue Protection guarantee covers 83k bu. Everything above that carries production risk: a short crop has to be bought back, and a short crop and a rally arrive together. No further new-crop sales until the crop is closer to made or coverage goes up.
