Background

Due to excess moisture, delayed harvest situations, and freezing temperatures in parts of upper Mid-West and the Pacific Northwest, some sugar beet processors are suspending harvest and delivery of remaining unharvested sugar beets for the 2019 Crop Year. As a result, sugar beets that have not been harvested will likely remain unharvestable due to insurable cause of loss which occurred during the insurance period, such as extremely wet or frozen field conditions.
