Crop Insurance Is Vital to California’s Agricultural Sector

“Farming is a very expensive operation compared to what it was when I first started farming. We’re looking at costs 10 times what they were 50 years ago, and so the protection we get from crop insurance is very important.”  Stanley Wilson, Shafter, California
