The Saskatchewan Crop Insurance Corporation (SCIC) is reminding producers April 30, 2015, is the deadline to enrol in the 2015 AgriStability Program and pay program fees, without penalty.
The AgriStability Program is about providing disaster protection for the farm, should something beyond the producer’s control occur, such as dropping commodity prices or rising input costs. Each farm’s risk protection, through the AgriStability Program, is unique because the Program uses the farm’s specific financial information to determine coverage and benefits. By having coverage based on the performance of the farm, each operation has its own individual risk protection.
To remain enrolled, participants have until April 30, or 30 days from the date on their Enrolment/Fee Notice, whichever is later, to pay their program fee without penalty. Producers are encouraged to contact their local Crop Insurance office or the AgriStability Call Centre at 1-866-270-8450 to review the coverage offered through the AgriStability Program and the risk protection it can provide for their operation.
