Resolution

Department: Saskatchewan Crop Insurance Corporation & Saskatchewan Ministry of Agriculture &  Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada

WHEREAS farmers generally pay more in crop insurance premiums than they collect in payments over a farming career;

BE IT RESOLVED that the Federal and Provincial Governments revamp the Crop Insurance program to allow producers to contribute their share of premiums at the coverage level they choose annually into an individual, self-administered account and that both governments contribute their share of such premiums to that account.
