Iowa LGM Insurance. Livestock Margin Protection.
From corn fields across central Iowa to soybean acres in the north, IA growers stack ECO on top of their MPCI for maximum federal crop insurance protection — Brawner Insurance helps Iowa cattle, swine, and dairy producers enroll in Livestock Gross Margin Insurance for federally subsidized protection against falling prices and rising feed costs.
Why Iowa Producers Choose LGM Insurance
Iowa is America's #1 corn producer with 23 million acres of cropland. ECO offers Iowa farmers the highest level of federal crop insurance protection available — extending coverage up to 90% or 95%, ideal for the high-yield, high-input corn and soybean operations that define Iowa agriculture.
As an independent agency, Brawner Insurance walks Iowa livestock producers through LGM enrollment — selecting the right coverage periods, deductibles, and marketing plans to match your operation production cycle and margin risk.
LGM is the most comprehensive livestock insurance for Iowa producers — covering both output price risk and input cost risk in one federally subsidized policy. Ideal for operations where feed costs are a major concern.

Bundled Risk Coverage
Unlike LRP which only covers price drops, LGM bundles multiple risks — output price risk, feed cost risk, and margin compression — into a single federally subsidized policy.
Learn More →Federal Subsidy Support
LGM premiums are subsidized 18-50% by USDA depending on deductible level — making margin protection affordable for cattle, swine, and dairy producers across the Midwest. Brawner helps you maximize subsidies.
