Roundup Record Tribune & Winnett Times -

As our state has received some much needed moisture, the Montana State Hail Program is reminding producers to make sure their crops are covered. With spring plantings wrapping up, our staff is ready to assist producers with acquiring State Hail Insurance.

Producers can insure crops against hail damage at the maximum coverage rate of $75 per acre for dryland and $114 per acre for irrigated land. Rates charged are a percentage of the insured amount and vary by county. A detailed list of rates by county and crop can be found here. State policies are available for purchase until August 15, 2022...
