News From SCIC

Earlier this year, the Government of Saskatchewan implemented contingency plans in response to the postal labour disruptions and is prepared following the announcement of a national strike from the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) on September 25, 2025.  Ministries, Crowns and agencies put these plans in place to limit its impact on services. The government continues to encourage all clients, suppliers and businesses to switch to direct deposit, as those payments will not be impacted by postal services.

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.

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.

The Crop Insurance Program continues to respond in times of need. Producers’ coverage and premium are individualized to their operation. Coverage reflects each producer’s production records and premium reflects each producer’s claim history.
