Saskatchewan crop insurance program adjustments

There are some changes coming for Saskatchewan Crop Insurance customers.

Agriculture Minister David Marit revealed the details for the 2023 program year. He said customers will see an individual premium calculated for each crop they insure. Premiums are individualized based on a producer’s personal claim history compared to the area risk zone.

“This means a producer’s claim on one crop does not impact their premium for a different crop,” Marit said. “Producers will see these individual premiums be more reflective of what they are experiencing on their own farm.”

Marit said the premium discounts and surcharges previously used in the Crop Insurance Program are discontinued.
