The Market Revenue Insurance Program provides farmers with protection from low commodity prices. Payments are made when the average annual Ontario price for the current crop falls below the support price, which is calculated using 85 per cent of the 15-year indexed moving average price. The program is jointly funded by the provincial and federal governments. Payouts received by producers are reduced by one-third in lieu of a producer premium. The Market Revenue Insurance Program is administered by AGRICORP on behalf of Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada and the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs.

Most moving average calculation methods are unable to compensate for trading range versus trending markets. During trading ranges(when prices move sideways in a narrow range) shorter term moving averages tend to produce numerous false signals. In trending markets(when prices move up or down over an extended period) longer term moving averages are slow to react to reversals in trend. By automatically adjusting the smoothing constant, a variable moving average is able to adjust its sensitivity, allowing it to perform better in both types of markets.

Pour le produit X, la prévision quadratique moyenne la plus faible (20.2) est obtenue quand on utilise le modèle de WINTERS avec trend (les constantes de lissage étant égales à 0.1). Pour Y, c'est le modèle de WINTERS dont le trend est corrigé par des coefficients de saisonnalité variables qui donne l'erreur quadratique la plus petite (57.4 avec des constantes de lissage égales à 0.3).
