The Simpson family, Mrs. Carl Fenn and Kenneth Official Gives Federal Crop Insuran ce Data According to a FC I official, there has been some misunder standing among farmers con cerning Federal Crop Insurance and the harvesting of their in sured crops. Some farmers have the impression that they have to harvest their crops to comply with the provisions of the Federal Crop Insurance policy. This is not true. There is nothing in the contract that requires a farmer to harvest his crop or any part of it. If a farmer does not want to har vest a crop the Federal Crop Insurance Corporation Adjustor will make an appraisal for what ever is left in the field and the farmer will be paid on an un harvested basis, deducting the amount of the appraisal from the unharvested guarantee. Insured farmers must report damage to their crops. When they find that their production will not equal or eyceedtheFCI guarantee they must report to the District Federal Crop In surance office immediately or within 15 days upon completion of harvest on the unit. Insureds must also remember that if their wheat does not grade Num ber 3 or better or Number 4 or 5 on test weight only that they are eligible for an adjust ment for quality which will re duce the amoung of production counted against the guarantee.
