Don't just take our word for it

See what people have to say about our product

SMI worked really well for us, the insurance covered the losses during the later part of the season when the rainfall decreased & dry conditions increased

The post season we experienced the worst drought in 26 years, form January to March we only received 60mm of rain. With SMI we were able to identify those critical stages. We insured accordingly and given the year that we had, we found the product to be extremely helpful. SMI is a product that is highly applicable to our enterprise, especially during those critical phases characterised by moisture shortage.
