Don't leave everything to chance; keep yourself protected with an insurance
Some farms make all or most of their profits through the crops that they grow. When a disaster, such as a tornado, wildfire or flood strikes and the crops they depend on are devastated, crop insurance can reimburse them for the losses they face. Before buying crop insurance, it’s vital that farmers submit an accurate representation of the planted acreage they have per unit. Should they underreport, they may not be reimbursed for all losses they could realistically experience.
Crop insurance is a type of protection policy that covers agricultural producers against unexpected loss of projected crop yields or profits from produce sales at the market.
Crop insurance is divided into two categories: crop yield and crop revenue. Crop-yield insurance protects the expected revenue due to unexpected yields, which is the volume of a crop’s harvest. Crop-revenue insurance covers expected revenue from loss owing to market fluctuations of crop selling prices. Both types of insurance are a means to aid in disaster recovery for producers due to unexpected events.

Provides Awareness: Insurance companies offer awareness campaigns to help farmers understand the effect of natural calamities and protect their farms.
