Saskatchewan Crop Insurance Experiment At 197 Farmers
Saskatchewan's experimental crop insurance program ran this year with 197 subscribers paying a dollar per acre to insure 30 000 seeded acres. The government bets $290 000 against $75 000 in premiums while weather and grasshopper threats tilt odds. Farmers missing payment by now cannot join this year. Officials estimate losses unlikely to exceed $100 000 even in a bad year. If successful, the crop insurance board will hire agents for next year. Crop claims require harvest before payout unless the adjustor declares a complete loss.
