<p>The producer may agree to settle the claim based on appraised production rather than taking to harvest.

If you disagree with the appraised production, you should not sign the production worksheet (claim form). Instead, the loss adjuster should follow the controversial claims procedure in paragraph 1204 of the <a title="PDF opens in new window" href="/-/media/RMA/Handbooks/Loss-Adjustment-Standards---25000/Loss-Adjustment-Manual/2020-25010-3H-Loss-Adjustment-Manual-Standards-Handbook.ashx?la=en" target="_blank">Loss Adjustment Manual</a>, which requires the case be referred to the AIP.<br>
<br>
If an agreement is not reached, a MPCI Non-Waiver Agreement may be completed or two sets of production worksheets (claim forms) will be prepared by the AIP, one representing how you believe production should be recorded and the other as completed by the loss adjuster. Supporting documentation of each claim will be required to be submitted to the AIP for a final determination. If you disagree with the final determination made by the AIP, then they have the option to initiate an appeal, see Section 20 of the <a title="PDF opens in new window" href="/-/media/RMA/Policies/Basic-Provisions/2020/Basic-Provisions-20-BR.ashx?la=en" target="_blank">Common Crop Insurance Basic Provisions</a> for more information.</div>
