Answers for Crops & Fields

  • What is MPCI and do I need it?

    MPCI is the foundation for many ND farms, protecting yield or revenue against covered perils; most growers choose it to stabilize income.

  • Does MPCI cover hail?

    It can, but many operations add a separate Crop-Hail policy for more tailored protection and faster response to hail events.

  • How are claims determined?

    For MPCI, claims are based on your actual production compared to your insured guarantee. For index products like PRF, payouts are based on regional index data.

  • Can I insure pasture or hay against drought?

    Yes-PRF provides rainfall index coverage for grazing and hay acres.
