News From SCIC

The Saskatchewan Crop Insurance Corporation (SCIC) continues to support producers facing losses due to wildlife through the Wildlife Damage Compensation and Prevention Program. If wildlife has damaged your crop, SCIC encourages you to report your loss and register a claim.

Today, on behalf of the Government of Saskatchewan, along with Federal Agriculture and Agri-Food Minister (AAFC) Lawrence MacAulay, Saskatchewan Agriculture Minister Daryl Harrison announces continued funding and commitment through the 2025 Crop Insurance Program.

AgriStability is a cost-effective business risk management program designed to help farm operations facing large margin declines. At $4.50 for every $1,000 covered Contribution Reference Margin multiplied by 70 per cent the annual AgriStability fee is $3.15 for every $1,000 of margin covered. For Saskatchewan producers, the average cost to participate is $0.69 per acre for grain operations, or $1.19 per head for livestock operations.

SCIC's Weather-Based Programs are designed to protect producers against weather-related risks. Programs include the Forage Rainfall Insurance Program, Mixed Forage Rainfall Insurance Program, Intercrop Rainfall Insurance Program, Corn Rainfall Insurance Program and Corn Heat Unit Insurance Program.
