Estimating Your AgriStability Reference Margin

 

This page contains resources to help you calculate an estimated reference margin for Agristability purposes. It demonstrates how to extract key figures from your income tax returns—using forms such as 1273, 1163, or T2042—and apply them within a downloadable spreadsheet available here.  As you watch, you may want to have a tax return readily available, since tax forms and fields are referenced throughout the explanation.

While the example shown is basic and does not include every adjustment needed for complete accuracy, it offers a clear framework for estimating your margin. This resource is intended to help you understand the fundamental process and serve as a practical guide in estimating your AgriStability coverage.

We hope you find this tutorial informative and useful in supporting your business decisions.
