What is PRF pasture insurance and how does it work?
PRF (Pasture, Rangeland, Forage) insurance is a rainfall index program that protects hay and grazing acres. It pays out automatically when rainfall in your specific grid area drops below the trigger level you choose β no loss adjuster visit required. Premiums are heavily subsidized by USDA.
Do I need a 590 nutrient management plan?
A 590 nutrient management plan is required for EQIP cost-share programs, many Wisconsin DNR permits, CAFO compliance, and some lender requirements. Our Certified Crop Advisor Sig Lindquist creates NRCS-compliant plans with soil sampling, manure crediting, and P-Index calculations.
Why use an independent crop insurance agent?
As independent agents, we're not tied to one insurance company. We can shop your coverage across all approved providers to find the best rates and terms for your specific operation. We work for you, not the insurance company.
