Crop-Hail Products

During the growing season, unexpected weather can strike just part of a field—but the impact can be significant. We offer flexible Crop-Hail coverage that works acre by acre, giving you targeted protection from isolated events.

Whether you're looking to safeguard bumper yields or to protect your crop’s full cash value, our plans are designed to fit your operation. 

Coverage is typically available up to the full cash value of your crop—giving you the flexibility to choose the level of protection that fits your operation.

And where available, our Crop-Hail policies go beyond hail damage—offering added protection for risks like vehicle damage, vandalism, malicious mischief, fire and transit losses—included with your policy.
