SCIC reminds producers participating in the Livestock Price Insurance Program (LPIP) to review their policy and settlement prices prior to the policy’s expiration date.

The deadline to file post-harvest claims, submit production declarations and/or request an extension of insurance is November 15. According to Saskatchewan Agriculture’s weekly Crop Report as of October 28, 90 per cent of Saskatchewan crops are harvested.

The deadline to enrol in AgriStability for the 2019 program year is July 2, 2019.

With the 2019 spring calving underway, there is continued uncertainty among Saskatchewan cattle producers due to the impacts of the extreme cold winter, high feed costs and potential of another dry growing season. The Saskatchewan Crop Insurance Corporation (SCIC) would like to remind producers they can reduce the risk of market uncertainty and protect the value of their cattle with The Livestock Price Insurance Program (LPI).
