Livestock & Crop Insurance

At American AgCredit, we offer highly experienced agents and crop insurance policies custom-designed to manage your risk and protect your operation.

We know the threat that crop failure or natural disaster can pose to your operation. Our expert insurance agents are ready to work with you to tailor a personalized plan that helps mitigate risk and keeps your business safe.

Depending on the nature of your operation, we offer targeted crop insurance plans to protect your business.

Crop Insurance Plans

We offer a wide variety of commodity-specific plans to protect your crops. We offer both yield and revenue-based protection to help your operation succeed, even under challenging circumstances.

  • Actual Production History
  • Actual Revenue History
  • Revenue Protection
  • Yield Protection

Livestock Plans

Raising livestock comes with a different set of challenges. From cattle to lambs, swine, and milk production, we help producers protect against decreasing margins and price for operations large and small.

  • Dairy Revenue Protection (DRP)
  • Livestock Gross Margin
  • Livestock Risk Protection (LRP)

Rainfall Index Coverage

Rainfall index coverage targets a single but damaging peril — lack of precipitation. We offer several insurance products based on rainfall, which can help protect your operation from the financial impacts of dry weather.

Pasture, Rangeland and Forage (PRF)
• Apiculture (honey production)
• Annual Forage

Named Peril Plans

Whether your operation faces risk from fire, freeze, or hail: we offer a variety of plans to ensure you are protected from the effects of extreme weather. Named peril insurance covers damage to specific commodities caused by associated common perils:

  • Crop Hail
  • Crop Fire
  • Grape Cluster Freeze
  • Hail Protection Plan
  • Citrus Freeze
  • Tomato Rain
  • Replant Extra
  • Pasture Fire

Whole-Farm Revenue Protection

Whole-Farm Revenue Protection (WFRP) provides a safety net of coverage for your crop and livestock operations. For diversified producers who may have crops and livestock that are not covered by federal crop insurance programs, Whole-Farm Revenue Protection can help these operations manage risk.

Grapevine Insurance

A new insurance program for grape producers is now available. In addition to insuring your production, you also can insure your vines against perils including freeze, hail, flood, and fire.
