pays for too wet, too dry, disease, wildlife, earthquake, excess heat, failure of irragation(due to an insurable cause), fire (ie lightenening not arson or brush fire), hail,frost, freeze, excess wind, floods, cyclones, torando, hot winds, and insects, winter kill, cold wet weather, volcanic eruption and hurricanes, other(ie snow)

this a federally subsized program

Answer 12

Well with the natural rhythms of drought and the climate changes brought on by both our civilization and natural events, while you get fried to a crisp, others are swimming down the streets praying for the rain to end. had we curbed our emissions and energy abuses a long time ago it would not have been this bad. I'm really very sorry. I sent off an email to another farmer the other day who, with the rain and floods in England, is on the edge of ruin.

All I can suggest is to talk to your insurance company and see if they will help you open up a deep(er) well to get some emergency water. It will cost them less if you can save your crop and they won't have to pay for a complete loss. I hope something good happens for you soon, we all rely on you who feed us.
