PRODUCER DELIVERY REPORT INSTRUCTIONS

20_ _- 20_ _

Processor Name: Please provide the processor name.

Entity Name: Provide the name of the grower from which the pistachios originated.

Tax Identification Number: Federal Tax Identification Number (FEIN) or Social Security Number (SSN) of the entity from which the pistachios originated. Please do not leave this blank, as it is required to verify the entity listed.

Entity Type: Provide the entity type (i.e., individual/sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation, LLC or trust). If the producer is a partnership, corporation, LLC or trust, provide a FEIN. If the producer is an individual (sole proprietorship), provide his/her SSN. (In some instances, an individual may use a FEIN instead of a SSN).

Authorized Voter: Provide the name of the authorized voter of the producer (the individual owner of a sole proprietorship, the general partner of a partnership, the managing officer of a corporation, the managing member of an LLC, or the trustee of a trust), and their contact information. This individual is the person who will be authorized to vote on behalf of the producer in Committee elections and referenda, and ballots will be mailed to the address provided.

Note: If the deliveries are part of a group of producers combined for purposes of reporting and payment (such as a cooperative or various producers represented by a farm manager acting as agent), the name, mailing address, SSN or FEIN and other information required by these instructions must be provided for each of the individual producers. The names, addresses and FEIN or SSN provided by each processor will be the basis for verifying eligibility to vote in Committee elections and referenda. If you have questions, please call the ACP at 559-255-6480 for clarification.

Bearing Acres: Provide the total bearing acres for each producer.

County: Report the county in which the pistachios were produced. Do not report the county in which the producer lives. If property is located in two counties, report both counties and an estimate of the pounds produced in each county.

Producer Deliveries: Report the total open inshell, closed shell and shelling stock (in pounds) processed for each producer. Report all weights on an inshell basis. Use actual inshell weight of closed shell and shelling stock. For loose kernels, multiply the actual weight by two to obtain an inshell weight.

Total Pounds Processed: Provide the combined total pounds processed for each producer.

Verification: Please date, sign (authorized representative) and provide your title on the form. Please return the original, signed copy to the ACP with your Assessment Report and payment on or before the December 15, 20___ postmark deadline.
