Frost Damage and Crop Insurance Replant Provisions for Wisconsin Farmers

Summary

The nights this spring have been cool, with light frosts occurring in many parts of Wisconsin. Farmers have reported frost damage to corn and other crops over widespread areas in northern Wisconsin and for scattered low spots in areas further south. Farmers who bought federal crop insurance coverage such as actual production history (APH) or crop revenue coverage (CRC) have replant coverage as part of their policy (unless they bought catastrophic coverage only). This short bulletin overviews this replant coverage, focusing on corn and soybeans.
