Sales Closing Date Nears for Many Fall-Planted Crops

The Risk Management Agency reminds producers that Oct. 1, 2001, is the sales closing date for many fall-planted crops. Crops that may need to be insured by this date include:

  • Alfalfa Seed
  • Barley
  • Canola
  • Cultivated Wild Rice
  • Forage Production
  • Mint
  • Oats
  • Potatoes
  • Rye
  • Sugarcane
  • Wheat

Sales closing dates vary by crop, state, and county so producers should consult a crop insurance agent to discuss their insurance options. A listing of crop insurance agents is at local Farm Service Agency offices or at http://www3.rma.usda.gov/tools/agents/. For a short explanation of key dates in the insurance cycle, go to http://www.rma.usda.gov/policies/cycle/insurance_cycle_g.html .
