Follow on Google News | Biggest Hail Damage in YearsAlamosa, CO - This last weekends’ devastating hailstorm brought the biggest hail seen in the San Luis Valley in at least the last 7 seven years, and caused severe crop damage.
By: Frank Duran “Most of the damage occurred in the North end of the Valley out by La Garita and along Highway 112.” said Chris Eddy, Farm, Ranch & Crop department manager at Dell’s Insurance in Alamosa. Chris added “We’ve had well over 200 claims on Monday, which is the most I’ve seen in one day in a very long time, and they’re still coming in. Most of the initial reports are at 50% - 100% crop loss, but we already have insurance adjusters out in the fields gathering accurate loss information.” Crop Hail Insurance is specifically designed to help protect a farmer from just this kind of disaster. Without insurance protection in place, a farmer could easily be wiped out by this kind of hailstorm. # # # Located in Alamosa, CO for the last 40+ years Dell’s Insurance Agency, Inc. specializes in Agribusiness Insurance, writes over 70% of all the Crop Hail Insurance in the San Luis Valley, and is one of the largest Crop Insurance Agencies in Colorado.
