Adoption is a central challenge for any new intervention, as farmers must weigh the benefits versus the costs in their own environment.

In the United States, crop insurance programmes preclude maize and soybean planting before dates set by the Risk Management Agency of the US Department of Agriculture (USDA). These programmes are used in more than 90% of the US maize and soybean planting area.
