The Farm Bill legalizes the commercial production of hemp which must contain less than .3% THC. The bill also has a segment that will allow the grower to secure true crop insurance on their plants.
This is yet to be determined, but the process to bring a new crop insurance product to market does not occur overnight. The federal crop insurance carriers have expressed that it could be a few years before a product is available.
There are many different types of risk management that could be potentially be done to help minimize risk. Currently there are hail policies available in select states, and weather products available in most areas to protect against various weather-related perils.
Other options that can be explored are self-insurance models, and custom developed products. Contact us to discuss unique risk management solutions.
