NOTE TO THE READER
This directory is a reference document to be used with the Crop Insurance Program. It is also mentioned in Annex C of the operational document of the Federal/Provincial Agriinsurance Agreement. It lists the different dates for the start of seeding or planting, for seeding or planting cut-off, harvest completion, the start of coverage against frost and start and end of protection. These dates are presented by crop group, according to the individual and collective systems, and represent the dates that must be abided by, for the crops to which they apply, so that the crop insurance is in effect. Generally, the insurance goes into effect starting on the seeding or planting dates in the open field and ends, at the latest, at harvest completion. However, for market garden crops, insurance against frost starts at the date of coverage against frost, with a few exceptions. The dates presented in this directory apply to all service centres (provincial date), except when otherwise indicated. In certain cases, the date listed may by effective for a service centre, sector or CHU (corn heat unit) zone. If there is no date listed, it means that no date applies. Changes for the 2020 insurance year are indicated in bold. Updated in: 2020 April, 15
