5 million acres covered by Production Insurance

Ontario producers have 5 million acres covered by Production Insurance this year, which is consistent with recent years. The majority of acres are made up of three crops:

  • Corn: 1,558,246
  • Soybeans: 2,015,995
  • Winter wheat: 793,088

So many producers rely on Production Insurance because it provides a level of comfort and security during the growing season, especially when conditions such as weather are unpredictable. Production Insurance is a reliable and affordable program designed to help by compensating producers for productions losses.

We are taking students out to southern Manitoba to Hespler Farms! Farmer Wayne will teach students how he plants and cares for his potato crop and why potatoes are such a unique crop to grow. Teachers, check out your AITC Dashboard for Math'd Potatoes, a potato-themed classroom resource to pair with this tour video. Thank you to Peak of the Market and Penner Farm Services for making this event possible.
