How Production Insurance responds when planting is delayed

Wet weather in parts of Ontario is creating difficult planting conditions for many farmers. Agricorp is working directly with farmers who are concerned about planting delays and will continue to closely monitor the situation.
 
Production Insurance was designed for situations like these. The program includes an unseeded acreage benefit (USAB) when wet weather prevents planting. USAB compensates customers when they are not able to plant their intended crop or an alternative crop by the planting deadline. The planting deadline is the last day that a crop can be planted and still qualify for Production Insurance.

Video: Running a Farm Store + Starting No-Till Gardens w/Blue Goose Farm

We cover: today we are chatting with Keenan McVey of Blue Goose Farm in Ontario Canada. Keenan, along with his wife Ashley, run this small farm and along with it a really interesting, in-town Farm Store that is a little different from what you might think of as a farm store and has proved to be an invaluable marketing option for them. Keenan’s roots are in the culinary world, and the farm was also started with another chef from the area some of you may know, named Matty Matheson (of the excellent show The Bear). Keenan tells us that story as well as helps detail the technical stuff about how the gardens were created and how they are maintained.
