Peaches and Nectarines for 2009 and Subsequent Years
Nectarines are insurable as a varietal class of peaches. The following variety listing is for classification of peaches in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina with respect to maturity by season. This listing is to be used in conjunction with the FCI 35 Coverage and Rate Table to determine:
- The correct Transitional Yield by practice, type, age, density and other characteristics (early/mid/late) is used for insurable blocks or units with less than four years of actual records.
- The correct Transitional Yield by practice, type, age, density and other characteristics
(early/mid/late) is used for yield adjustment for any year selected by the grower that has a yield less
than 60 percent of the applicable Transitional Yield and;
- Insurability of varieties based on chilling hour requirements by county published on the FCI 35.
Varieties not listed should be referred to the Valdosta Regional Office for correct classification.
