Notice of Loss (NOL)
 |
|
- Filing a Notice of Loss each time you suspect your crop (plants, vines, trees, etc) has been damaged is a critical requirement of your contract with Production Insurance.
- Please notify your Production Insurance office immediately! (The Notice of Loss (NOL) can be phoned, faxed, sent by regular mail, emailed or dropped off).
- After notifying Production Insurance of the suspected loss you must receive a confirmation letter (normally within two weeks). If you have not received a confirmation letter, please contact us to receive one. The confirmation letter proves that you have properly filed your Notice of Loss (NOL) and that we have a record of it.
- This must be done before the crop is put to an alternative use (harvesting, abandoning, baling, silage, grazing, tilling under, removing, etc)!
- Not filing a Notice of Loss (NOL) in a timely manner or not getting a confirmation letter could possibly void your claim with Production Insurance.
- Following a Notice of Loss, an experienced adjuster will inspect your crop (plants, vines, trees, etc) to determine the extent of the loss.
- If an inspector has not been to your farm within two weeks before harvest, please phone your local Production Insurance office to check your status.
