    There is insurance that can be taken out on tame hay and native grass.So producers should not expect governments to 100% compensate the loss of a drought.Not saying that program is perfect but if your in a position that a dry year is a game changer you should have it.
    You obviously run cattle and have vast first hand knowledge of years of experience in the livestock industry??

      Rainfall insurance has been equated to picking the number at the roulette table. Even the SCIC officials agreed with that comment.

      Its not insurance it's gambling.

        I guess when the numbers are in and you look at the stations that had a pay out then you can conclude if it was gambling.My guess the pay out areas would be in the dry areas .unfortunately when temperatures in the summer reach over 30 for many days in a row rainfall does mean less.

          Just read 90% of the rainfall insured acres will get a pay out this year.

            That's should tell the provincial and federal governments how serious this drought is. Putting aside my previous comments about rainfall insurance , those stations still serve a purpose for collecting data.

            On another topic, Trudeau gave away 125 million on his latest trip to Indonesia, but can't announce the federal share of the. agrirecovery funding for Canadian ranchers . Too bad my $4 a head checkoff funding couldn't point that out.

                Did you take out insurance for low rainfall?
