CROP INSURANCE POLICY<\/strong><\/p>\n

DEFINED EVENTS:\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>Physical loss of or damage to growing Crop (wheat\/maize\/rice\/barley) directly caused by:<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>Drought (excluded under irrigation)<\/strong><\/p>\n

A deficiency in soil moisture content as required to sustain optimal crop growth in all developmental stages. Trigger point is when precipitation for the whole growing season falls below 50% of long term average precipitation in as far as this trigger affects the final yield. This measure of precipitation will be obtained from a Kenyan Class A Weather Station closest to the area affected. Crop inspections (Emergence, Mid Season and Pre-harvest) reports will complement and track the extent of drought and other conditions on the insured crop.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\n
1. Hail and Frost Damage<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    <\/p>\n

   Manifestation of damage resulting in a loss of yield indirectly caused as a result of a hail strike and frost. The incident of frost has to be verified by the nearest Class A Weather Station.<\/p>\n

    <\/p>\n

   \n
   1. Fire<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

       <\/p>\n

      \n
      1. Windstorm<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          <\/p>\n

         An event where mechanical damage is evident to such an extent that the plant is permanently damaged or the harvest severely lodged.<\/p>\n

          <\/p>\n

         \n
         1. Excessive Rainfall<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

             <\/p>\n

            Any event where above normal rainfall occurs to such an extent that irreversible damage is caused to crop irrespective of its growth stage.<\/p>\n

            \n
            1. Uncontrollable Pests and Diseases<\/strong>. This will include uncontrollable birds and wild animals. However there should be sufficient proof that the insured tried by all means to keep the wildlife and birds at bay, for example, through perimeter fencing, regular patrols, bird scaring and traps.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
