Agricultural Insurance is a valuable business risk management tool that provides farmers with financial protection against production losses caused by natural perils, such as drought, flood, hail, frost, excessive moisture and insects.

Agricultural Insurance is provincially delivered and federal financial contributions are made through a Bilateral Agreement to Implement Growing Forward: A Federal - Provincial- Territorial Framework Agreement on Agriculture, Agri-Food and Agri-Based Products Policy.

Insurance is currently available for apples, canola, grains, potatoes, processing carrots, sweet corn, strawberries, wild blueberries and fresh market vegetables in New Brunswick.

The governments of New Brunswick and Canada jointly contribute to all of the administrative costs for the program. Premium costs are shared between producers and the provincial and federal governments.
