**Direct answer:** Proagro and private rural insurance are different. Under Proagro, a beneficiary harmed by the agent’s decision may appeal to the Special Appeals Commission (CER); the current MCR text states 30 days from notice. Private insurance follows its policy and insurer claims process.

## Practical framework

Stage
Action

Loss
report on time and preserve evidence

Inspection
record area, method, photos and data

Decision
request the file, calculation and reasons

Appeal
answer each reason with evidence

Build a timeline of planting, technology, inputs, weather, notice, inspection, harvest and decision. Compare each denial reason with the MCR or policy. Zoning, planting window, yield, management and late documents require specific technical responses. For Proagro, request access and file the CER appeal within the applicable period; for insurance, use contractual channels and Susep where appropriate.

## Risk and professional review

Do not sign, renew or acknowledge debt with blanks. Accounting must reconcile the agreement, documents, inventory, cash and tax; legal counsel should review authority, security, maturity, default and dispute resolution.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is Proagro insurance?

No. It is a public program under the MCR; insurance is a supervised contract.

### What is the CER deadline?

The consulted MCR states 30 days from notice; confirm the current version.

### May the crop be harvested first?

Follow immediate instructions so evidence is not destroyed.

### Does an agronomic report help?

Yes, if timely, clear and tied to the affected area.

### Does denial end the matter?

Not always; review, administrative appeal or court action may remain.
