Hail Insurance On Farm Crops In The United States Classic Reprint

Excerpt from Hail Insurance on Farm Crops in the United States The first organization in the United States to write hail insurance on growing crops, so far as official records reveal, was a small mutual concern organized in 1880 by the tobacco growers in Connecticut. This company, for some reason or other, dropped out of existence in 1887, but was promptly succeeded by another hail mutual organized in an adjoining county, which is still doing business. No other ex elusive hail companies are revealed by official records earlier than the year 1889, in which year four mutual hail insurance companies were reported from North Dakota.
