Insurable Crops

SCIC insures crop varieties suitable for local growing conditions throughout the province. Insurance may be denied if you grow an inappropriate variety for your area.

Under the multi-peril program, insurable crops are:

• barley
• canary seed
• canola
• durum
• faba beans
• field peas
• flax
• identity-preserved canola
• lentils (large green, red, other)
• mustard (brown, oriental, yellow)
• oats
• rye (fall, spring)
• sunflowers
• triticale
• wheat (Canada prairie, extra strong, hard red, hard white)
• winter wheat

Volunteer crops are not insurable.

Soft white spring wheat will be insured as Canada Prairie spring wheat.

Insurance is available for both late-maturing tall stature (LMTS) and early-maturing short stature (EMSS) sunflowers. If you grow both classes, production is offset in the event of a claim.

Liability will be accepted on dryland faba beans in risk zones 11, 14, 15, 17, 18, 21, 22 and 23. Irrigated faba bean acres are insurable in all risk zones.
