Coverage against uncontrollable natural and man-made incidents can help provide protection from hail to tornados, to vehicle incidents and illness or death. Country Insurance has developed innovative insurance packages to respond to these conditions.
Country Insurance offers a crop hail insurance product in Illinois called GrainGuard to protect corn, soybeans, wheat, grain sorghum, and many other crops from risks like hail, fire, lightning, vandalism and malicious mischief. This package of coverages on our GrainGuard policy were developed to meet the unique situations farmers face. Coverage highlights include:
Wind Plus Coverage for losses due to wind damage or green snap. Green Snap Plus Coverage for losses due to green snap only on a per acre basis. Good Samaritan Protection if you can't plant or harvest your crop due to severe illness or death and volunteers help plant or harvest your crop Disappearing Deductibles 5% and 10% deductibles will no longer apply if a crop loss reaches a certain percentage of your crop operation Tornado Debris Cleanup Coverage for debris removal and cleanup from outbuildings blown into an insured field as a result of a tornado. Stored Grain Stored grain coverage for your crop at no additional charge. Cargo coverage is also provided Land Motor Vehicle/Aircraft Protection if someone accidentally drives through your field (damaging your crops) and admits to it. You also have protection if an aircraft piloted by a human lands in your field and the field is damaged by the aircraft and/or the emergency personnel.
Country Insurance also offers a Farm Managed Crop Hail policy that provides unique coverage for both standing crops and harvested grain. The Farm Managed Crop Hail policy offers optional replant endorsements, special discounts when applicable, along with many other benefits free to the producer.
