Data
Research-ready data products for U.S. agricultural risk and policy analysis, spanning USDA sources and my own calibrated and synthetic datasets. Each card links to a public GitHub release that documents the included files, methodology, and recommended citation; most files are .rds objects downloadable directly in R with piggyback.
Pasture, Rangeland, Forage (PRF)
Analysis-ready PRF Pilot Insurance data: county- and grid-level actuarial files, RMA rainfall index values, CPC precipitation, and derived potential-area and county penetration measures.
PRISM Weather Data
County-level daily degree days and precipitation from the PRISM gridded dataset, aggregated over crop growing seasons following the Schlenker & Roberts (2009) and Tack et al. (2015) procedures.
Summary of Business
FCIP participation and loss experience aggregated at three levels: contract choice × pool (sobtpu), coverage level × county × commodity (sobcov), and county × commodity (sobscc).
Cause of Loss
FCIP participation, liability, and indemnities broken out by peril, letting losses be attributed to specific causes of loss.
FCIP Calibrated Yield
Calibrated sub-county yields for every observed FCIP aggregated transaction (Tsiboe, Turner & Yu 2025, Journal of Risk and Insurance 92(1):139–165).
FCIP Calibration Data
Standardized FCIP transaction records: Summary of Business experience joined to ADM rating parameters, converted to yield-equivalent terms with inverted rate yields. One file per crop year, 2011–present.
Supplemental Insurance
Availability and adoption of SCO/ECO supplemental products: cleaned Summary of Business, annual ADM tables, agent-level datasets, an offering-and-adoption panel, and OBBBA-recalibrated ADM.
FCIP Revenue Draws
500 correlated yield–price scenarios per producer under RMA’s M-13 framework, generated with common random numbers across all contract alternatives.
Synthetic FCIP Research Inputs
Pseudo-producer panels built from unit-level experience, with loss attribution across the full peril taxonomy, cell-level peril probabilities, and RI-grid placement (apportioned and sampled).
USDA NASS Extracts
Assorted county- and state-level series aggregated from USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) data.
Insurance Control Elements
Assorted items aggregated from the FCIP’s Insurance Control Elements (ICE).
USDA FSA Extracts
Assorted series aggregated from USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) program data.
Actuarial Data Master — Legacy
The FCIP’s Actuarial Data Master (ADM) for 1996–2010, covering the pre-modern rating years.
Actuarial Data Master — Extracts
Assorted rating and program parameters aggregated from the FCIP’s Actuarial Data Master (ADM).
Ghana GLSS Harmonized Household Data
Harmonized farmer- and community-level datasets from all seven rounds of the Ghana Living Standards Survey (GLSS1 1987/88 – GLSS7 2016/17), supporting agricultural productivity research.
