Hail Insurance
(redirected from Crop insurance)

   Also found in: Legal, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
Hail Insurance
An insurance policy that provides coverage for damage to agricultural crops due to hail. Hail insurance helps reduce the weather-related uncertainty that farmers experience. In the event of an insured loss, damaged crops are compensated for in proportion of the total crop. As with all insurance, one pays a premium for hail insurance coverage.
