Hailstones, particularly the large ones, or a heavy down-pour of pea-sized hail, can tear through and even rip the leaves off the plants, and can even slice through thick stems like that of canola or mustard, leaving crops dead or severely damaged. With damaged crops, especially severely damaged ones where there is literally nothing left, there are very little to no yields for a producer to harvest and make money off of. Most often hail-damaged crops are better off being used as livestock fodder (like silage) or for crop-residue grazing for cattle than an actual cash-crop.
