Noninsured Crop Disaster Assistance Program (NAP)

Instructions For CCC-575

NON-INSURED CROP DISASTER ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (NAP) RECORD OF MARKETING HISTORY

The CCC-575 was developed to collect data to establish a participant’s historical marketing percentage (HMP), contract marketing percentage (CMP), and direct marketing percentage (DMP). This form is to be completed only for those participants who chose the HMP option and/or the DMP option on the CCC-471, if applicable. The calculation of the HMP and DMP will be based on the actual marketing history from the consecutive preceding three years of production for the eligible NAP crop. The HMP or CMP will be applied to the NAP benefits for those participants. The DMP will be applied when calculating the premium as well as to the NAP benefits for those participants.

Submit the original completed form in hard copy or facsimile to the appropriate FSA servicing office.

Customers who have established electronic access credentials with USDA may electronically transmit this form to the USDA servicing office, provided that (1) the customer submitting the form is the only person required to sign the transaction, or (2) the customer has an approved Power of Attorney (Form FSA-211) on file with USDA to sign for other customers for the program and type of transaction represented by this form.

Features for transmitting the form electronically are available to those customers with access credentials only. If you would like to establish online access credentials with USDA, follow the instructions provided at the USDA eForms web site.

In situations where the unit of measure is different between the final uses and/or crop years, convert production to pounds (lbs.) using the table below. Example: Fresh market production sold as pounds (lbs.) and processed production sold as hundredweight (cwt.). All production shall be converted to pounds (lbs.) and the unit of measure would be pounds (lbs.).
	Conversion Table
	If converting…	Then…
	Hundredweight (cwt.) to Pounds (lbs.)	multiply by 100.
	Tons to Pounds (lbs.)	multiply by 2000.
	For bushels, containers, and other nonstandard units of measure	multiply the pounds (lbs.) from the National Crop Table (NCT) by the bushels, containers, etc. to complete the conversion.

Part C – Current Year Contract Marketing Percentage (CMP) Note: Ensure that each category of marketing use is recorded as the same unit of measure to provide consistency in the production and calculation.

	acres and not production with multiple units	the producer must certify expected production under contract. The contracted production shall not exceed the lesser of the reported or contract acres times the highest approved yield for the units of the same crop, crop type, and intended use.
		Example:
		Unit	Acres	Approved Yield	Not To Exceed Expected Production

> 100% with more than one intended use with contracted production	equals a prorated CMP based on the share of expected production not to exceed 100%. (Example 2)
< 100% with one intended use and only one intended use is approved on the NCT	equals 100% for the intended use. (Example 3)
< 100% with two intended uses approved on the NCT	for the other intended use, equals 100% minus the calculated percentage from the contracted use for the crop. (Example 4).
< 100% with three intended uses (FH, PR, and JU) approved on the NCT	for the intended use that is not the contracted use, equals 100% minus the calculated percentage from the contracted use for the crop. (Example 5).

Highest Value

HMP/CMP

(cont.)

NOTE: If the price in item 29 is the same for all final uses, the intended use will be used in determining the highest value use.

Example 3: The CCC-575 is completed for Producer C for green beans. The FSA-578 has green beans intended for fresh. The highest value HMP/CMP will be determined based on the highest percentage associated with the original intended use.

Final Use	27. Average HMP	28. CMP	29. Average Market Price	30 Highest Value HMP/CMP
	Sum of Items 24-26 ÷ Number of Years	Enter CMP from Item 11
Fresh	80%	50%	$10.00	80%
Processed	20%	50%	$10.00	20%
Juice

In this scenario, the highest value use would be the HMP associated with the fresh green beans because it has the highest fresh percentage. Enter all percentages from item 28.
