Happy 1 Year Anniversary to our Client Advocate, Ashton Mullins! 🥳

Ashton spends her workdays as a Client Advocate, helping clients navigate challenges and ensuring they feel supported every step of the way. What truly keeps her engaged is the people—the supportive team, the positive culture, and the knowledge that the work being done genuinely matters.

Outside of work, she prefers to recharge outdoors—upland hunting with her dogs, trapping, or just enjoying time outdoors. It provides the perfect balance to the workweek, and she appreciates being part of a company that recognizes life beyond the office is important too. She’s looking forward to what the next year brings.

USDA Issues Second Supplemental Disaster Payment to Farmers, Extends Program Application Deadline to August 12
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA)is maximizing disaster assistance support for producers by issuing a second Supplemental Disaster Relief Program (SDRP) payment to eligible producers who have approved program applications for losses due to natural disasters in calendar years 2023 and 2024.

USDA’s Farm Service Agency (FSA) has already provided $6.7 billion in SDRP payments to eligible producers. Additionally, USDA is extending the program deadline to give producers and FSA more time to address any program application changes that could impact payments. The original April 30 deadline has been extended to Aug. 12, 2026, for SDRP Stage 1 and Stage 2.

Initial SDRP payments were factored at 35%, but after further analysis, USDA is increasing the payment factor to 70%, meaning producers with approved applications will receive an additional 35% of their calculated SDRP payment. Future SDRP payments will also be made using a 70% payment factor.

SDRP Stage 1

The first stage, announced in July 2025, remains available to producers who received an indemnity under crop insurance or the Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP) for eligible crop losses due to qualifying 2023 and 2024 natural disaster events.

SDRP Stage 2

Stage 2 of SDRP covers eligible crop, tree, bush and vine losses that were not covered under Stage One program provisions, including non-indemnified (shallow loss), uncovered and quality losses.

Eligibility

Eligible losses must be the result of natural disasters occurring in calendar years 2023 and/or 2024. These disasters include wildfires, hurricanes, floods, derechos, excessive heat, tornadoes, winter storms, freeze (including a polar vortex), smoke exposure, excessive moisture, qualifying drought, and related conditions.

To qualify for drought related losses, the loss must have occurred in a county rated by the U.S. Drought Monitor as having a D2 (severe drought) for eight consecutive weeks, D3 (extreme drought), or greater intensity level during the applicable calendar year.

FSA is establishing block grants with Connecticut, Hawaii, Maine, and Massachusetts that cover crop losses; therefore, producers with losses on land physically located in these states are not eligible for SDRP program payments.

Here at Peachey, we believe in supporting the communities we serve and investing in opportunities to connect children to the roots of agriculture and the work that sustains our communities. Special thanks to the Pratt Area Chamber of Commerce for organizing Kids Day on the Farm again this year where we were proud to join other sponsors to help educate, inspire and strengthen the next generation.

We’re excited to honor Kayla Hutchison for 5 incredible years at Peachey Insurance! 🎊

Kayla specializes in crop multi‑peril and hail insurance and loves being part of the farming community—tackling the unique challenges each policy brings and helping clients protect what they’ve worked so hard to grow. She began her journey in our Pratt office with Sue Peachey before moving to Kinsley, and now that our offices have combined, she’s thrilled to reconnect with familiar faces while continuing to build new connections.

When she’s not crunching numbers or diving into policy details, you’ll likely find her soaking up the sunshine at the beach or laughing with her nieces and nephews—because life’s always better with sand and family fun!

Happy four years to our Client Management Leader and P&C Agent, Bobi Cross! Bobi writes Property & Casualty here at Peachey, and her favorite type of policy to write is Replacement Cost Irrigation Systems, Livestock Mortality and Recreational Lines. We are so grateful for all her contributions!

Bobi has been a licensed P&C agent since 2015 and enjoys building trusted long-term relationships with her clients by taking the time to understand their operations and unique risks. Bobi is heavily involved in the community, currently serving as the Lewis USD #502 School Board President, the Wayne Township Clerk, Edwards County Economic Development Secretary and Lewis Days Committee Member.

On the rare occasion that she has free time, Bobi enjoys playing in her Pitch and Bridge groups, hunting, camping and (perhaps her favorite) spending time with her husband Aaron and their adult children, Andrew and Thoran.
