The impact on agriculture from hail can be severe, but varies widely depending on the time of year that it occurs and the corresponding growth stage of the affected crops. Corn that is damaged by hail in May or June when the growing point is still below the soil surface stands a good chance of surviving with very little stand or yield loss. Hail damage sustained later in the summer can be more permanent, however, once the corn has entered its rapid growth stage.
Agrible alerts you if hail impacts one or more of your fields in your Agrible account. You will be notified of the time of event, size of hail, density, and duration — letting you know what fields you need to check first. With this information readily available, you can streamline the process of surveying your fields for hail damage and move forward with an insurance claim if necessary.
