Hemp Grower’s Insurance—Tailored Coverage for a Growing Industry
The landscape of the farming industry tends to change slowly, but when it does, it happens in a big way. That is what hemp production is positioned to do if government regulations change. The cash crop promises higher profits than other crops like corn, soybeans, or tobacco. The uses for hemp are numerous. For example, the seeds are used in dietary products. The bast, or fiber, hidden within the stalk is utilized in clothing, construction materials, and even paper. Finally, the shiv, or hurd, found in the inner core of the stem has been used to create a hemp concrete, called hempcrete. While the industry is gaining its foothold, hemp growers need insurance to help them stay protected.

Protection for Hemp Grower’s Begins Here
Since the 2018 Farm Bill was signed into law, farmers across the country are poised to take advantage of a versatile plant that can boost a family’s income while aiding the industry:
- Crop Protection: Though hemp requires less water and is more frost resistant than many other crops, it can still be damaged by extreme weather. A tornado or hailstorm can devastate your bumper crop and ruin your growing season. Additional natural events you may encounter include disease, drought, fire, flooding, and insect damage.
- Equipment: Like other farming operations, it helps to have the right equipment to bring in the harvest and conduct the required processing. If machines fail because of vandalism or theft, you need coverage that will help you get back on your feet.
- Revenue/Sales: Even though the hemp industry is growing, it may help to have a policy for those times when yields are low, or prices fall dramatically.
- Health, Life, and Disability: If your operation is family-owned, it is imperative to have coverage for those unexpected bouts of illness or even death. The business can keep growing until you recover. In the event of a death, your family will have time to grieve instead of rushing into making poor choices due to dire financial need.
