Left to right are: B. F. Bateman, Route 1, Tyner, Frank V. White, Jr„ Route 1, Edenton, Bryant Griffin, Route 2, Edenton, and Reid H. Smith, Route 2, Ayden. Smith is supervisor for the area. The federal crop plan gives all-risk coverage, something new in crop insurance as far as area farmers are concerned. Farmers Take Advantage Os Crop Coverage Peanut farmers in eight North Carolina counties were paid $132,260.77 for damages to their crop in 1964 from coverage by Federal Crop Insurance Corp. County Agent Charlie Over man said had Chowan County farmers been included in the 1964 program some claims would have been paid. This will happen should there be crop failure this year as Cho wan is one of four counties in North Carolina approved for FCIC. Representatives of the program are now interviewing farmers in Chowan to explain THE CHOWAN HERALD, EDENTON. NORTH CAROLINA. THURSDAY. MARCH 4. 1965. the program and sign them up. Federal Crop Insurance pro vides low-premium all-risk in surance and is a branch of the U. S. Department of Agriculture. Congress appropriates funds for administering the program and the premiums are based on es timated losses over a period of years. Reid H. Smith, supervisor, said the program is being well re ceived in Chowan County. He said he and his co-workers are highly pleased with the number of local farmers who are taking advantage of this service pro vided by the federal government at a nominal cost. The federal insurance is not designed to replace normal crop insurance offered by local com panies. However, it will insure the farmer of getting something for the time and planting costs. “In some cases FCIC coverage will keep a farmer out of seri ous financial trouble should he have a bad crop due to many conditions,” Smith said. He pointed out the case in nearby Northampton County where a peanut farmer was paid $28,000 in 1964 when rain during harvest and frost practically destroyed his entire crop. Had this farmer not had in surance he would have realized nothing for the investment of his time and materials. There are now 66 counties in North Carolina where Congress allows federal crop insurance to be written. The remaining coun ties are expected to be added, year by year, as federal funds become available.
