Non-Insured Crop Disaster Assistance Deadline Approaching
Wisconsin Ag Connection - 08/28/2015
Producers interested in participating in the Farm Service Agency's Non-Insured Crop Disaster Assistance Program for crops where crop insurance is not available, need to be aware of the upcoming application deadlines that must be met for NAP qualification. NAP also offers buy-up coverage for the 2016
program year.
NAP was designed to reduce financial losses that occur when natural disasters cause catastrophic losses of production or prevented planting of eligible crop by providing coverage equivalent to catastrophic insurance.
State FSA Director Brad Pfaff says the application deadline date for 2016 NAP coverage for 'value loss' crops such as ginseng, turf grass sod, Christmas trees, aquaculture, floriculture, mushrooms, and ornamental nursery is September 1; while the deadline for perennial forage, including most fall and spring
planted small grain forages and pasture land forages, not covered by federal crop insurance, is September 30.
Another September 30 deadline applies to the closing date for winter/spring plantings of wheat, barley, rye, and mint.
