This is Lonnie Sewell with this week’s crop insurance update, brought to you by the Sewell Agency and ASI Crop Hail Insurance.

Wheat signup is coming to a close the end of September. We must apply or make any changes soon. Whether you intend to plant wheat or not, you may want to apply for coverage to maintain eligibility in the Disaster Program.

Also, a new Rainfall Index Program is available for 2009 on pasture and hay ground. Sign up ends November 30th. You may also need to be signed up in this plan to qualify for future FSA programs. More on this in our next up-date.
