The importance of yield volatility, specifically low yield realizations, is evidenced by the significant public monies via business risk management programs meant to offset the financial burdens of such outcomes. Significant increases in yield volatilities has been well documented in the literature. Corn and soybean yields and yield volatilities in Ontario are modelled in a number of ways. First, yields are modelled as a mixture of two normals (to accommodate the variety of yield density structures) allowing for differing rates of technological change in each component. There is strong evidence for both corn and soybean that rates of technological change differ in different parts of the yield distribution giving rise to increased volatility...
