Unseeded Acreage Benefit. Agricorp will pay Unseeded Acreage Benefits in accordance with the provisions of this Part and in accordance with the provisions as set out in the Production Insurance Documents applicable to the insured crop. The amount of insurance payable on eligible acreage is as determined by Agricorp and is set out in the Contract and Production Insurance Documents pertaining to the insured crop. It is calculated in accordance with the provisions in those documents and includes, but is not limited to, all limitations on insurable acreage or insurable crops, deductibles, and any other restriction on the amount payable. Unseeded Acreage Benefit is paid based on the dominant crop grown by the Insured in the previous year. If, for any reason, there is no dominant crop for the preceding year, then Agricorp will apply their priority rules as set out in the applicable Production Insurance Documents. If the insured acreage increases by more than ten percent over the previous year‘s planted acreage, the Insured must notify Agricorp of the acreage increase by May 1. Failure to report increased acreage over the previous year may result in denial of benefits on some or all unseeded acres. No Unseeded Acreage Benefit is payable in respect of:
a. sod fields not properly prepared by May 1 or any other date specified by Agricorp,
b. woodlots, orchards, and fall‐seeded land,
c. acreage intended for summer fallow,
d. acreage not in crop in the previous year,
e. affected acreage unless a significant number of other Insureds were similarly affected in the area where the insured acreage is located,
f. acreage exceeding the acreage indicated on the Application or Renewal Notice, or
g. acreage declared unacceptable by Agricorp. All acres of insurable crop must have been offered to Agricorp for insurance under this Benefit in order for the Benefit to apply. Unseeded Acreage Benefits will not be paid if the number of unseeded acres is three or less on tiled land, or if the number of unseeded acres is six or less on untiled land. The following deductibles apply:
a. On tiled land: the greater of three acres or one percent of the acres, which remain unseeded.
b. On untiled land: the greater of six acres or three percent of the acres, which remain unseeded.
c. An additional deductible of $1.00 per acre, or as otherwise set out by Agricorp, will be deducted from the claim for all eligible acres. The Insured must notify Agricorp prior to June 15 when an insured peril prevents the Insured from plan...
