The drought in the northern plains this past year affected not just crop acres, but pasture conditions as well. Ozark Hills Insurance PRF Drought Insurance Specialist Adam Isaacs says rainfall insurance helps mitigate risk for ranchers. “We’re just trying to help ranchers get their share of subsidies. Rainfall insurance is one of the best ways to mitigate risks for grass growth on cattle operations. With rising input and feed costs, extra subsidies from USDA goes a long way.”
