Hurricane Insurance Protection – Wind Index (HIP-WI) and the Tropical Storm Option (TS) are crop insurance tools to help deliver prompt assistance to producers in hurricane prone areas. These innovative options for coverage add to a farmer’s underlying policy with no additional paperwork or loss adjustment needed. HIP-WI and TS generally pay within weeks following a hurricane or tropical storm.

USDA’s Risk Management Agency (RMA) encourages producers to attend this webinar to learn about these tools and how they work following a qualifying storm.
