You must submit a Seeded Acreage Report declaring your seeded acres no later than June 25. This report is necessary to calculate your level of insurance and process your claims.
Seeded Acreage Report forms will be mailed to you in May. You can phone, fax, mail or drop off your seeded acreage information at any customer service office, or CropConnect customers may complete personalized reports online. Blank forms will be available online under Forms. If you fail to submit or are late, you may be assessed a penalty of $60 and, if necessary, an adjuster will visit your farm to gather the required information at an additional charge.
You do not have any Crop Insurance coverage until you report your acres on your Seeded Acreage Report. Also, if you suffer a crop loss and have not reported your acres by June 25, your claim may be denied.
Organic crops are listed separately from conventional crops on your Seeded Acreage Report. If you are insuring your crop as organic, list those acres according to the correct organic crop code. Changes between organic and conventional coverages will not be allowed after damage has occurred.
If you require assistance completing your Seeded Acreage Report, contact your customer service office or view the instructions included in the Reporting Information section of "Your Complete Guide to Understanding Crop Insurance".
