EVERYONE HAS CROP INSURANCE !?

That's right, everyone has crop insurance, even those who don't have a crop insurance policy. Choosing not to buy insurance is called self-insurance. With self-insurance the producer elects to put 100 percent of the risk of any crop losses on himself and his family. Risk management specialists around the country agree that self-insurance is a high-risk proposition. All practical forms of crop insurance are based on transferring a portion of your production risks to an insurance company and/or the Federal government in exchange for a premium. You have several choices of crop insurance policies that offer different ways of protecting your investment.
