Both the decisions of adopting a marketing contract and the quantity placed under contract are examined. A preliminary estimation is first performed using the OLS approach. To address the potential endogeneity problem of crop insurance participation, an instrumental variable is introduced and a 2SLS approach is employed to conduct a farm-level analysis. Results suggest a negative impact of crop insurance participation on marketing contract adoption, while the fraction of production contracted is positively affected by the participation in crop insurance.
