Crop Insurance Plans

At Insurance Mart we have set a new standard of service in crop insurance nationwide. We understand farming. We know you can’t always control the power of Mother Nature, but you can protect your family’s financial security with crop insurance.

Yield-Based Coverage

Multi-Peril Crop Insurance (MPCI) provides protection against losses from a number of uncontrollable causes. MPCI is the most popular insurance coverage due to its flexibility in level and price.

Catastrophic (CAT) provides the minimum coverage amount on a MPCI policy. For a $100 fee, producers can buy a minimum insurance coverage based on 50% of the producing operation’s average yield at 55% of the FCIC established prices.

Group Risk Plan (GRP) is recommended for farmers whose yield history closely tracks the county or parish history because protection is based on the yield experience of the county rather than their individual farms.

REVENUE INSURANCE PLANS

Crop Revenue Coverage (CRC) provides farmers with a revenue guarantee based on their approved yield and current market price. Protects against losses resulting from a decrease in market price, a loss of production or combination of these. While CRC provides several advantages over traditional crop insurance policies, the real benefit comes when it is incorporated as an integral part of the producer’s marketing plan.

CRC can be an effective risk management tool by providing farmers with an established revenue guarantee per acre. Farmers may more proactively market through the growing season when prices are usually higher, knowing that CRC provides the revenue guarantee to cover bushels committed in forward pricing their crop or when using other market options.

Revenue Assurance (RA) is available for selected states and crops, this policy provides protection against revenue losses resulting from any combination of low market prices or low production yields. RA is available in certain states. Ask your agent about availability in your area.

Crop Hail Overview:

Five minutes of hail can wipe out an entire year’s income. The Crop Hail policy through Insurance Mart and Rural Community Insurance Services (RCIS®) provides protection against loss to the crop from hail. This policy supplements the coverage provided by an MPCI policy. Crop Hail provides coverage on an acre by acre basis.

MPCI policyholders in some states have an additional option to purchase a Companion Hail policy that works with the Multiple Peril Crop Insurance (MPCI) policy for quicker pay-out on hail losses.

Crop Hail Auto-Crop through Insurance Mart and RCIS offers the convenience of allowing the Crop Hail policy to be completed based on the MPCI acreage report for the crop. With Crop Hail Auto-Crop, your Crop Hail coverage becomes a continuous policy that remains in effect until it is canceled. Simply review your insurance per acre coverage and policy form each year and if there are no changes, no other paperwork is required.

The RCIS Crop Hail program also offers many specialty endorsements to cover specific perils on selected crops in some states, such as green snap wind endorsement for corn or sugar beet crusting endorsement. Your RCIS agent can quickly show you all your options.

Named Peril Overview

Flexible coverage designed to protect crops from damaging weather conditions during specified coverage periods. Recommended as a supplement to MPCI and Crop Hail policies to cover gaps in coverage such as hazards unique to specific crops, unavailability of MPCI and hail insurance in your area, or to cover a processor.
