Insurance Products
Multiple Peril Crop Insurance (MPCI) is federally subsidized protection from numerous causes of loss, including drought, excessive moisture, freeze, disease and more. The availability of coverage may vary by crop, area, and state.
As a benefit to the farmer, we have partnered with several insurance companies, which will allow us to provide a customized coverage option for your operation. Below is a list of some of the insurance products we have to offer:
- Revenue Protection (RP)
- RP protects against lower yields, lower prices, or a combination of both. This plan is a comprehensive protection with a specific dollar amount guarantee that covers weather-related causes of loss, certain other unavoidable perils, and price fluctuations.
- Yield Protection (YP)
- YP covers for loss of production below a predetermined production guarantee. Insures producers in the same way as APH, except a projected price is used to determine insurance coverage.
- Whole Farm Revenue Protection (WFRP)
- WFRP provides a risk management safety net for all commodities on the farm (crops and/or livestock) under one policy. This ag insurance plan is tailored for any farm with up to $17 million in insured revenue, including farms with specialty or organic commodities (both crops and livestock), or those marketing to local, regional, farm-identity preserved, specialty, or direct markets.
- Actual Production History (APH)
- APH insures against losses due to natural causes such as drought, excessive moisture, hail, wind, frost, insects and disease. The producer selects both the amount of average yield and the percent of the predicted price to insure based on the crop price established annually by RMA.
- Area Risk Protection (ARP)
- ARP provides protection against widespread loss of revenue and yield due to a county-level production loss. Individual farm revenues and yields are not considered under ARPI, and it is possible that your individual farm may experience reduced revenue or reduced yield and not receive an indemnity under ARPI.
- Crop Hail (CH)
- Protects against damage due to hail and/or fire. CH can be used in conjunction with MPCI or other comprehensive coverages to reduce the MPCI deductible and offer coverage up to the crop’s actual cash worth. Since coverage is given acre-by-acre, damage to one portion of a farm may be covered even while the other portion of the property is unharmed.
- Pasture, Rangeland, Forage Insurance (PRF)
- PRF provides coverage for pasture, rangeland, or forage acreage for haying or grazing livestock. PRF is an area-based ag insurance program that protects against yield losses caused by low precipitation relative to a historic average on forage produced for grazing or harvesting hay.
- Livestock Risk Protection (LRP)
- LRP insures against a decline in livestock market prices. Producers may choose from various coverage levels and insurance periods that help protect against national marketplace volatility. Insurable livestock include Fed Cattle, Feeder Cattle, and Swine. LRP uses area pricing to determine indemnities and is offered on a per head basis.
Available to all qualifying producers regardless of race, color, national origin, gender, religion, age, disability, political beliefs, sexual orientation, and marital or family status.
