Straight Hail Insurance helps Alberta’s producers weather the storm

Hail seems inevitable in Alberta; it’s often not a question of if, but when. When hail does hit, AFSC’s Straight Hail Insurance can give producers peace of mind, ensuring they have the coverage they need.

Agriculture Financial Services Corporation (AFSC) is the only hail insurance available that does not limit the township, or the liability, within high hail risk areas. Additionally, Straight Hail Insurance covers spot-loss damage to crops, caused by accidental fire and fire caused by lightning, giving producers even more peace of mind.

Straight Hail Insurance policies are available for purchase until July 31 and damage can be reported 24-7 through AFSC Connect. AFSC also offers high-dollar coverage on specialty and high value crops, such as potatoes or sugar beets, affording the same peace of mind to smaller acre operations.

AFSC has a long history in Alberta, and that history gives us a unique understanding of the threat hail can pose.
