Over $2.500.000 Paid Out
All-Risk Tobacco Insurance Offered
Payments to policyholders in
1953-54 in 24 North Carolina
counties where tobacco all-risk
cropi insurance was offered by the
U. S. Department of Agriculture
amounted to over two and a half
million dollars for over ll.OOC
claims, reports Julian E. Mann,
state director of the Federal Crop
Insurance Corporation of the U,
S. Department of Agriculture, at
Raleigh.
Dry weather prevented insur
eds in most claim cases from re
ceiving enough from tobacco sales
to pay cash production costs. The
Federal Crop Insurance Corpora
tion made up the difference,
Mann noted.
In 1953-1954, Moore was One of
the North Carolina counties in'
which tobacco insurance was of
fered and this county will be one
of 26 counties in which this all
risk insurance is offered in 1955.
The majority who were paid
claims produced sizeable amounts
of tobacco, but quality was so in
ferior that sales fell below in
surance coverages. Almost six
hundred thousand dollars were
paid policyholders in 1954 and
nearly two million dollars in 1953.
Cotton claims totaled over
fifty-two thousand dollars for the
two years. Cotton insurance is of
fered only in six western coimties
and has never been offered in
,Moore.
All-risk tobacco crop insurance
offered by the Federal Crop In
surance Corporation of the U. S.
Department of Agriculture is de
signed to protect cash invest-
mehts aguinst weather, disease,
fire and insect dayiage from the
time the crop is planted in the
field until the tobacco is deliver
ed for sale at the warehouse.
Premiums are charged at suf
ficient rates to pay claims over a
period of years, and create rea
sonable reserves for the future.

PINEDENE, Inc., Claimant
risks. The number of counties
where protection is offered is lim
ited due to the liability involved
in all risk crop insurance, and in
accordance with the Federal Crop
Insurance Act.
Tobacco insurance is available
in 1955 for the first time in Har
nett and Robeson counties, mak
ing a total of 26 North Carolina
counties where protection fo-r to
bacco may he bought, and six
counties where cotton, insurance
may be purchased.
Private Policies Recommended
All-risk insurance against loss
of cash investments due to all
types of weather, and unavoidable
disease and insect damage, can
not be obtained except through
the U. S. Department of Agricul
ture. It, therefore, does not com
pete with crop hail and fire poli
cies obtainable through private
insurance channels. ’The Corpora
tion recommends supplementary
hail and fire insurance, available
through customary agents, for
protection against loss of crop
values due to specific hazards.
All-risk insurance through the
U. S. Department of Agriculture
has been available on certain
crops in North Carolina since
1942. The protection has enabled
farmers to spread severe financial
loss, due to crop damages beyond
their control, over a large number
of growers. When returns in any
year fail to bring back the in
dividual’s cash production cost,
the funds paid in by the group
are drawn upon to make up the
difference between what is real
ized from sales, and the amount
for which he was insured. Busi
ness-minded farmers who partici
pate are using the age-old princi
ple of insurance to stabilize farm
operations, thus reducing the nec
essity for relief funds from fed
eral, state or local governments in
years of crop disaster.
Collectioins Cover Claims
In North Carolina, total funds
collected over the years in pre
miums have been sufficient to
cover claims paid. The amount of
insurance in force in this state in
1954 was at a record level.
Farm tenants and farm owners
who borrow for living and farm
production expenses desire to re
pay loans when they become due.
Sometimes thejr cannot. Farm
owners who funiish tenants, and
time merchants who sell goods on
open accounts, stand to lose heav
ily if debtors fail to produce
enough to pay accounts. Even
commercial banks and public
credit agencies, which normally
require enough collateral for safe
ty, would be in a much more fav
orable position in years of crop
disaster if clients could pay debts
from insurance claims. Collateral
assignments of claims are avail
able to debtors and creditors.
Crop disaster through adverse
weather during the growing sea
son can make repayment of loans
impossible from proceeds of the
crop. Wieather such as drought,
hurricane, excessive rain, and
such other hazards as plant dis
ease and insects each year bring
crop proceeds on many farms be
low cash production costs.
Hurricane Protection Urged
All eligible producers should be
sure that they have protection
against hurricane damage, wheth
er accompanied by hail or not,
while the crop is growing in the
field. The economic life of farm
people, and the economic life of
all businessmen who depend
upon farm trade, would undergo
extreme financial hardship if a
hurricane like Hazel would pass
in 1955 while crops are unhar
vested in the fields, Mann stress
ed.
Applications will not be accept
ed after the insurable crop is
planted in the field, and after
closing dates established for each
county. In Moore County, appli
cations are handled through the
Agricultural Stabilization and
Conservation office on the third
floor of'the courthouse in Carth
age.
Counties where tobacco insur
ance is offered in 1955 are: Ala
mance, Beaufort, Buncombe, Cas
well, Columbus, Duplin, Forsyth
Franklin, Granville, Greene
Guilford. Harnett, Jones, Lenoir,
Mobre, Nash, Person, Pitt, Robe
son, Rockingham, Stokes, Surry
Vance, Wake, Wilson and Yadkin.
hereby requested to pay the said
indebtedness to the undersigned
