The annual summary of dairy livestock specifies the total claims paid out within a fiscal year against a loss of livestock resulting from one or more of the perils designated by the Dairy Livestock Insurance Plan Regulations under the Crop and Livestock Insurance Act.

Dataset indicates the total number of dairy livestock animals, total premiums collected and the claims paid for all perils within each fiscal year, and a loss ratio associated with each. The Loss ratio is determined by the claims paid/total premiums collected.

The Wildlife Compensation Program provides compensation to producers who experience damage to specified agricultural products caused by specific wildlife species. Compensation compliments crop insurance plans that list wildlife as an insurable peril as well as operates on its own for crop and/or livestock farmers who do not currently have crop insurance. In all cases the maximum compensation payment is limited to 80% of the value of the agricultural products listed by the Crop and Animal Insurance Commission.
