## Description

This MCP server provides specialized calculation engines for USDA disaster assistance programs. It allows AI agents to determine eligibility and estimate payments for Agriculture Risk Coverage (ARC), Price Loss Coverage (PLC), Emergency Assistance for Livestock, Honeybees, and Wool Producers (ELAP), and the Livestock Forage Disaster Program (LFP). Using tools like `calculate_arc_plc_eligibility` and `estimate_elap_lfp_loss`, agents can analyze crop data, yield history, and price triggers to provide precise financial insights for producers. The server also includes `get_trigger_probability` to assess historical risk and `generate_program_selection` to recommend the most beneficial program based on current market conditions.

## Tools

### get_trigger_probability
Analyzes historical yield and price data to estimate the likelihood of a program trigger occurring in the next cycle

### calculate_arc_plc_eligibility
Determines if a producer qualifies for ARC or PLC and calculates the estimated payment for a specific crop

### estimate_elap_lfp_loss
Calculates potential payments for livestock and forage-related disaster scenarios

### generate_program_selection
Provides a recommendation on which program (ARC vs PLC) would likely yield the highest payment based on current market conditions

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
I have 500 base acres of Corn, 450 planted acres, a yield history of 180 bushels, and my actual production was 170. The price trigger is $4.50. My AGI is $150,000 and my payment limit is $50,000. Am I eligible for ARC or PLC?
```

**Response:** 
```
You are eligible for PLC. Your estimated payment is $12,500.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
My livestock forage value is $100,000 and I've experienced a 30% loss due to drought. My AGI is $80,000. How much can I expect from ELAP or LFP?
```

**Response:** 
```
Your estimated payment for the forage loss is $30,000.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Based on these historical yields [150, 160, 145, 155, 170] and prices [5.0, 4.8, 5.2, 4.5, 4.7], what is the probability of the price falling below $4.60?
```

**Response:** 
```
The probability of the price trigger occurring is 0.4, with a frequency of occurrence of 2 out of 5 cycles.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does the server determine if I am eligible for ARC or PLC?**
The `calculate_arc_plc_eligibility` tool checks your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) against statutory limits and verifies that your planted acres do not exceed your USDA base acres.

**Can I estimate losses for livestock or forage?**
Yes, you can use the `estimate_elap_lfp_loss` tool to calculate potential payments for ELAP and LFP programs based on loss severity and total asset value.

**How can I decide between ARC and PLC?**
The `generate_program_selection` tool compares the potential revenue shortfall for ARC against the price shortfall for PLC to recommend the program with the higher expected payment.
