Crop-Hail and Multiple Peril Crop Insurance
Crop insurance is a key risk management tool that protects Idaho farmers and ranchers from financial losses due to natural disasters. With constantly changing market conditions and federal programs, crop insurance is complex. Two types of crop insurance are available to Idaho farmers. A Farm Bureau Insurance Crop Specialist can help you understand crop-hail and multi-peril crop insurance programs.
Crop-Hail Insurance
Hail has the unique ability to totally destroy a significant part of a planted field while leaving the rest undamaged. Farmers often purchase a Crop-Hail policy to protect high-yielding crops. A Crop-Hail policy can be purchased throughout the growing season from Farm Bureau Insurance.
Multiple Peril Crop Insurance (MPCI)
MPCI policies are part of the Federal Crop Insurance Program and cover loss of crop yields from all types of natural causes including drought, excessive moisture, freeze, and disease. Coverage options combine yield protection and price protection to guard farmers against potential loss in revenue, due to low yields or changes in market price. MPCI policies have specific deadlines and must be purchased prior to planting.
Since these insurance programs and what you’re raising change every year, your Farm Bureau Insurance Crop Specialist can help you navigate the available crop insurance policies including:
- Yield Protection
