Risk management tool helps manage market volatility
• Builds fi nancial certainty into farms
• Easy to use and eliminates paperwork • Spreads any risk across commodities
A
new risk management tool aims to help farm- ers manage market vol- atility by protecting them against price fl uctuations. The fi rst service of its kind outside the USA, Stable offers affordable premiums for farm- ers and food businesses across all sectors to protect them from falling prices or rising costs – a major threat to UK agriculture in the face of a no-deal Brexit. Developed by farmer’s son
Richard Counsell, the idea for the business came while Richard was completing a Nuffi eld Farm- ing Scholarship to fi nd ways fam-
ily farms like his own could build more fi nancial certainty into their enterprises.
Using knowledge gained from working in software development in Chicago, Mr Counsell began to explore ways to solve what is a signifi cant problem to UK farm- ers – as well as growers and live- stock producers around the world.

As an industry, volatile prices and costs are one of our biggest risks
the arable sector – and vice versa. Mr Counsell realised if he could build an insurance platform that acted like a mixed farmer, the risk could be spread across lots of commodities. This meant the premium payable by farm- ers would be affordable, without needing public subsidy. Stable offers index insurance to farmers and food companies across 15 countries and hundreds of diverse farm commodities from coffee to cow’s milk. In the UK, farmers can al- ready insure the price of milk, oilseed rape, milling wheat, feed
wheat and feed barley, as well as lamb, pork, diesel and AN fertil- iser. The minimum size of poli- cy is just 10t of crops, 1000kg of livestock or 10,000 litres of milk.
Designed for farmers The ability to insure against in- creases in pig, poultry and dairy feed is also being launched as the
