Montana is reminding farmers and ranchers that the deadline to purchase state hail insurance is Aug. 15, 2008.
Montana is the only state to offer state-administered hail insurance, which for many farmers supplements crop insurance offered by private companies.
The state law that created Montana’s program sets an Aug. 15 cutoff date for buying the insurance.
Dryland producers can insure crops for up to $50 an acre and irrigated crops can be insured for up to $76 an acre under limits authorized by the 2007 Legislature.
For more information, contact the Montana Department of Agriculture at 406-444-2402.
