open-in-new
<p>Crop insurance is <a href="/facts/Insurance/06VP8I3B">insurance</a> purchased by agricultural producers and subsidized by a country's government to protect against either the loss of their crops <a href="/facts/Failed_acreage/kMrmhtXT">due to natural disasters</a>, such as hail, drought, and floods ("crop-yield insurance"), or the loss of revenue due to declines in the prices of agricultural commodities ("crop-revenue insurance"). </p>
