Crop Hail Insurance (JDRProtector)



Why JDRProtector Crop-Hail Insurance

This policy provides insurance for loss or damage to growing crops caused by hail or other perils. JDRProtector is a concept of combining hail coverage and MPCI coverage, with the convenience of a single statement and processing system offered through John Deere Risk Protection (JDRP).

Benefits

  • Fire and Lightning Damage
    Coverage for damage before and during harvest and while your crop is in the harvester.  This also includes crops in small grain stubble.
  • Vandalism and Malicious Mischief
    Coverage for damage before and during harvest and while your crop is in the harvester.
  • Fire Department Service Charge
    Payment up to $500 when the fire department is called to save or protect your insured crop.
  • Unlimited Transit
    Unlimited mileage coverage for damage to your crop from transit accidents.
  • County Blanket
    We insure all acres of your crop in a county.
  • Coverage for Substitute Crops
    Prior to receipt of the insured’s coverage amendments for the subsequent crop year, we will automatically insure his/her MPCI insurable crop not grown the previous crop year.
  • Replant payment alternative
    If an insured hail event occurs, requiring the grower to replant the crop, the grower has the option of choosing between indemnification for:
    1. The actual cost to replant, up to 20% of the limit of insurance – and no reduction of limit for the subsequently replanted crop.
    2. Replanting at their own expense, and collecting indemnity based on actual lost crop.
  • Premium Waiver for Accidental Death*
    For loss of life by accidental means while carrying out your farming operation.
  • Stored Crop Coverage
    Covers injury, deterioration or diminution of harvested grain while in storage and caused by events such as fire, hail, windstorm or flooding.

Crop-Hail Insurance Example

Situation: Loss of production due to hail
Hail plan: DXS5 (5% deductible plan, disappearing at 25%)
Acres: 100
Insurance per acre: $350
Limit of insurance: $35,000
Gross loss percentage: 20%
Net loss percentage: 18.75%
Gross %    Net %
10%    =   6.25%
20%    =  18.75%
25%    =  25%
72%    =  73%

Indemnity Payment:
Limit of insurance ($35,000) x Net loss percentage (18.75%) = $6,563
