May 2018 Newsletter:  Current Reminders

  • You must get prior approval before replanting any acres. Your claim will be denied if there is no prior approval.
  • Crop-Hail policies can be purchased during the growing season. You can buy this named peril policy for about $2-4 / acre.
  • We strongly encourage wheat acres be covered by at least a hail policy.
  • July 15th is the deadline for reporting acres on Spring crops. Certifying acres at FSA prior to visiting with your agent is not a requirement as we have the same maps and boundaries.
