County averages still drive a surprising amount of agricultural risk modeling. This becomes a problem when drought exposure, planting behavior or soil management can vary sharply within the same township.

Claims disputes, delayed settlements and uneven premium structures often begin with coarse data rather than underwriting decisions alone.
