* Fall Acreage Certification: County FSA offices will be working with producers to complete acreage certification for any fall-seeded crops by the Nov. 17 deadline. Producers are also encouraged to certify fall-planted cover crops. Contact your county office for more details on the acreage certification process.

* Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP): NAP provides financial assistance for losses from natural disasters on crops for which no permanent federal crop insurance is available. Deadlines to apply for coverage for the 2026 production season are approaching for some crops, including a Sept. 30 deadline for rye, triticale and wheat, and a Nov. 17 deadline for alfalfa, mixed forages and grass. Contact your county office for more information.

* Supplemental Disaster Relief Program (SDRP): Nebraska FSA County Offices are now taking applications for SDRP. This assistance program is designed to provide financial relief to producers who had losses of revenue, quality or production of crops due to certain weather-related events in 2023 and/or 2024. Prefilled applications have been mailed to impacted producers who received crop insurance indemnification or Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP) payments in either of those years. Producers must submit the FSA-526 application to their FSA office. For more information, producers can visit the SDRP webpage or contact their FSA office.
