Pasture, Rangeland & Forage (PRF)

Protect Your Forage Production from Lack of Rainfall
Pasture, Rangeland, and Forage (PRF) Insurance is designed to help producers manage the financial impact of below-average rainfall that can reduce forage production on grazing and haying acres.

Coverage Highlights
  • Covers both owned and leased grazing or haying ground
  • Protection for up to 90% of average rainfall
  • Based on rainfall measurements in your area
  • USDA federally subsidized program

How It Works
PRF coverage is based on the relationship between historical average rainfall and acutal rainfall. When rainfall is lower than historical averages in your insured area, an indemnity payment may be triggered.

Coverage Periods
Coverage is selected in two-month intervals throughout the year, allowing you to customize protection for critical growing periods. During the quoting process, we can review your insured area’s historical rainfall data to better select coverage periods.

Premium Information
  • No upfront premium payment required
  • Federally subsidized through the USDA
  • Any indemnity payment is applied toward premium balance first
  • Remaining indemnity payments are paid directly to the producer

Indemnity Information
Payments are triggered when measured rainfall in the insured area falls below historical averages during selected coverage intervals.
