The Role of Production Insurance on Your Farm
Farmers have to deal with the unfair hand sometimes dealt by
nature. Uncontrollable weather can ruin crops, and wreak havoc with
farm budgets. Production insurance offers financial
protection against crop losses due to uncontrollable weather. Like
any insurance plan, production insurance pays compensation to ease
some of the financial hardship if you suffer misfortune. Buying
production insurance is a smart business decision, similar to house
insurance, car insurance or life insurance.
Our objective is to continue to work with farmers to make
production insurance more efficient and effective to strengthen
British Columbia's valuable farming community, and to protect our
food supply.
