Open to applications

Value

Varies

Description

AgriInsurance is a federal-provincial-producer cost-shared program, delivered provincially, that stabilizes your income by minimizing the economic effects of primarily production losses caused by severe but uncontrollable natural hazards.

Examples of possible eligible perils:

  • drought
  • flood
  • wind
  • frost
  • excessive rain, heat, snow
  • uncontrolled disease
  • insect infestations
  • wildlife

Eligible Applicants

Currently, 5 provinces participate in the reinsurance arrangement:

  • Alberta
  • Manitoba
  • New Brunswick
  • Nova Scotia
  • Saskatchewan

The program is currently available to most producers in all provinces. Eligibility criteria for this program, as established at the provincial level, will continue to evolve as provinces add new commodities to their lists of insurable agricultural products. The Provincial contact information section provides links to program details in each province.

Eligible Expenses

Each province develops and delivers AgriInsurance plans in accordance with the Farm Income Protection Act, the Canada Production Insurance Regulations and Multilateral Framework Agreements to meet the needs of the producers in that province. These plans help to cover production losses as well as loss of product quality and both yield and non-yield based plans are offered.

Commodities covered by the program:

  • Examples of traditional crops the plans cover: wheat, corn, oats, barley
  • Examples of horticultural crops the plans cover: lettuce, strawberries, carrots, eggplants
  • Some provinces also provide coverage for bee mortality as well as maple syrup production
