 *A small portion of this premium rate has a higher premium cost. You pay 67% of the high-cost amount, and the federal and provincial governments pay the rest. The extra cost factors in high-risk commodities or risk-splitting, like choosing single-peril coverage or insuring separate orchards, hybrids, or harvest periods.

About premiums

Your premium = premium rate × number of acres

If you have been enrolled in the program for more than one year, your premium rate may be discounted or surcharged based on your claim history for the commodity.
