| dc.description | In 1969, hail losses to wheat causes yield decrease and other damage amounting to about $3 million yearly in North Dakota. Uninsured hail damage decreased farm income in North Dakota by as much as another $3 million. Insurance companies founded a research organization called Hail Insurance Adjustment and Research Association (HIARA) to obtain accurate measurements of various damage levels and their effect on yield and other characteristics on many insured crops. Research was begun in 1968 by the Agronomy Department and funded by HIARA to conduct simulated hail injury studies on hard red spring wheat at the Fargo, Carrington and Dickinson Agricultural Experiment Stations in North Dakota. The methods and results are detailed for the reader. | |
