Required Acreage Reports
A Importance of Accurate and Timely Reporting
Filing an accurate and timely acreage report FSA-578 for all crops and land uses, including
failed acreage and prevented planted acreage, can prevent loss of benefits including but not
limited to programs listed in the following table. FSA-578 certifications must be filed for the
farm by the applicable final reporting date in Exhibit 6.
For producers reporting NAP crops, see 1-NAP (Rev. 2) for additional acreage reporting
requirements. Acreage reports and requests for disaster credit for:
•
prevented planted acreage and credit must be submitted no later than 15 calendar days
after the final planting date for the applicable crop.
*--Important:
COC can approve prevented planted after 15 days if a field visit is
performed to determine the disaster condition.--*
Notes: Beginning in 2007, the final planting date for each crop is based on final planting
dates established by RMA for insurable crops and NCT planting dates for
noninsurable crops.
If no date is established by RMA, COC may establish final planting dates for
insurable and noninsurable crops in a county with approval from STC. When
establishing final planting dates COC shall take into consideration the applicable
dates established for surrounding counties.
•
failed acreage credit must be sought by a producer before:
•
•
the crop acreage is destroyed
disposition of the crop.

A Processing Acreage Reports Submitted
Program enrollment or application is not a requirement for acreage reporting. Persons or
legal entities who may not be program participants or persons seeking benefits at the time the
person or legal entity wants to submit the acreage report * * * must be permitted to file
FSA-578, to report their crop acreage. The reason a person or legal entity wants to submit an
acreage report is irrelevant to FSA’s processing of the report.
B BWEP
BWEP, which is administered by APHIS, has used cotton acreage reports that were provided
by producers to local FSA offices since the first trial program in 1978.
Consistent with subparagraph A and to continue providing this service, County Offices that
are in States designated for participation in BWEP will continue to process all acreage
reports filed by producers.
C Tree Crop Acreage Certification
When the tree crop acreage is being reported, the tree crop information must include the
following:
•
•
acreage
variety or type.
Tree crops will have a supplemental screen that requires the following additional
information:
•
•
•
•
number of trees
row width (feet)
tree spacing (feet)
age of trees.
*--D Plant Count
The number of plants can now be reported for any crop that has a reporting unit of acres
except for orchards.
Notes: The development and addition of this supplemental field to the acreage report was
done with a focus on urban and innovative producers. It will allow a producer to
report number of plants so the size and scope of the crop production can be better
identified on FSA-578.
The use of this supplemental field is available to any producer, regardless of whether
the producer is urban or traditional or the size of the operation.--*

Reporting Dates
A Overview
The final date by which a timely filed acreage report can be submitted to FSA is the ARD.
The ARD is the latest date by which a person or legal entity can submit timely-filed acreage
reports.
This paragraph provides policy on where to find ARD’s by State, exceptions to ARD’s,
appointment scheduling, and using the registers.
B ARD’s
To be eligible for FSA benefits according to subparagraph 16 A, crops must be reported by the
ARD in Exhibit 6.
FSA-578, whether timely filed for all crops is shown or not, is considered certified on the date
the producer signs the report.
The following provides guidance on reporting crop acreage not specified in Exhibit 10.
***
5-12-22
•
If a measurement service was requested by the ARD for a crop, but not performed by the
ARD, then the acreage report for the measured crop must be filed within 5 workdays of the
producer being notified of completion of the measurement service.
•
If the crop is apiculture, use the crop code for “honey” with the applicable apiculture
acreage reporting date as listed in Exhibit 6.

B ARD’s (Continued)
Example: California has multiple reporting dates for potatoes depending on when they
were planted. The range of dates used to identify these reporting dates are not
the same as the planting periods used for NAP.
•
Acreage reports filed using the continuous acreage reporting provisions for selected
perennial crops will be considered as meeting the ARD’s as specified in Exhibit 6.
***
•
For the crops listed in Exhibit 10 that have a planting date range or a series of planting date
ranges within a program year, and the crop is planted on a date that is not--*
included within a date range, then the ARD is the earlier of:
•
•
3-8-23
15 calendar days before the onset of harvest or grazing
the subsequent planting date range’s acreage reporting date.
•
Crops that have a date range or a series of date ranges within a program year, and the
reported planting date is both after the ARD for “all other crops” for that State and not
within the date range specified, must be reported within 15 calendar days before the onset
of harvest.
•
If the crop is a repeat crop and the crop reporting date has passed, then the subsequent
planting must be reported 15 calendar days before the onset of harvest.

Office to the County Office’s satisfaction.
the ARD associated with “all other crops” in the
State, unless otherwise specified.
E Reporting Acreage by Appointment
If appointments are used to accommodate acreage reporting, sufficient personnel must be
assigned to ensure that all appointments can be scheduled by the ARD.
F Using Registers
An acreage report register will be used, according to 1-CM when a certification register is
determined necessary. County Office will maintain a copy of the acreage report register for
future reference.
*--Note: Farm number is not a requirement when the producer is being added to the register;
however, only acreage reported on farms at the time of the appointment meets the
requirements for being included on the register. Any farms for which an acreage
report is not provided at the appointment, will be considered late-filed.
Example: Producer has provided acreage information for farm numbers #125 and #126
during the appointment. After the appointment, the producer remembers an
additional farm #182 that needs to be reported. Since farm #182 was not
reported during the appointment, that farm will be required to follow late-filed
procedures.--*

Use Exhibit 13 when requesting a change to ARD’s. To validate the request, State Offices
will:
complete Exhibit 13, indicating the following:
crop/commodity name and crop/commodity type, if applicable, for the request
current crop/commodity reporting date
proposed crop/commodity reporting date
crop years to which the proposed reporting date apply
prepare a written document to justify the change of crop/commodity reporting date(s).
The justification must address the following criteria:
provide reasoning on how the change would reduce the burden on producers
whether the proposed ARD conflicts with requirements already established for farm
programs or crop insurance associated with the crop/commodity
Note: Proposed ARD’s that conflict with FSA, RMA, or other USDA requirements will
still be considered for approval depending on the nature of the conflict.
if other similar or closely related crops/commodities are associated with the proposed
final ARD
the proposed ARD should not increase, and ideally would reduce the total number of crop
ARD’s established for the State
Note: If the proposed ARD increases the total number of dates for the State, explain the
reasoning why it would further reduce the burden on producers.

Processing Acreage Reports
A Overview
Producers on farms participating in certain FSA programs are required to complete an
FSA-578 acreage report certifying all cropland on the farm to be eligible for program
benefits.
The FSA-578 is considered certified when the report includes all required data fields as
described in subparagraph D and is signed by the producer.
B Before FSA-578 Is Filed
County Offices will advise persons of the following before FSA-578 is filed:
an accurate and timely report is required
the map the producer is using must accurately represent current farm practices and
matches the FSA farm records data including FSN, tract, CLU, and acres
photography, official acreages, and past records are available to help in reporting acreage
measurement services are available and recommended if there is any doubt about the
accuracy of any data being reported
a discrepancy exists in the same crop year between previously reported crop acreage and
crop acreage being reported, if applicable.
*--Notes: FSA will accept a manual report for the subsequent report. Both producers will be
notified that the acreage report is in dispute. Neither acreage report will be
considered acceptable. Both parties will be allowed to meet with COC to
determine who has share risk of the acreage in dispute. COC will accept only 1 of
the certifications.
County Offices must not in any way advise any person on the quantity of acreage
that should be reported.--*

Late-Filed Report of Acreage
A Processing Late-Filed FSA-578
*--COC will process a late-filed FSA-578 and record determinations in the COC minutes when
the late-filed acreage report for a crop year is filed and accompanied by the required
late-filed fee by the subsequent year’s ARD under 1 of the options in subparagraph B or C.
Note: Any FSA-578 submitted by the subsequent year’s ARD for the crops being reported
that satisfies all other requirements of this subparagraph, and subparagraphs B and C
can be processed as a late-filed FSA-578 for the applicable year.
Example: 2023 corn has an ARD of July 15, 2023. If the corn is not reported by
July 15, 2023, then it can be late-filed for 2023 as long as it is filed by the
subsequent year’s ARD of July 15, 2024.
If it is reported on or after July 16, 2024, it can only be processed as a
late-filed 2024 acreage report.
Federal regulations do not permit FSA to process the report filed on or
after July 16, 2024, as a late-filed acreage report for 2023. It can only be
viewed as a 2024 late-filed acreage report. If that is not acceptable to the
filer, return the late-filed acreage reporting fee and delete the reported
acres, if applicable.
B Late-Filed FSA-578 With Nonphysical Evidence
A producer may file a late-filed acreage report after the final reporting date through the
crop’s immediately subsequent crop year’s final reporting date without a farm inspection if
the producer provides both of the following to the satisfaction of COC.
•
Existence of the crop (crop, type, practice, and acres). Examples of nonphysical evidence
includes, but is not limited to:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
4-12-24
seed receipts showing the amount, variety, and date purchased
receipts for cleaning, treating, etc., for seed planted on the farm
a written contract or documentation of an oral contract to produce a specific crop
evidence that was accepted and approved by RMA or another USDA agency
precision planting, spraying, or harvesting geospatial data or maps
drone photos with location and notable physical boundaries
other aerial or ground imagery with the ability to determine date, acres, and crop.--*

*--B Late-Filed FSA-578 With Nonphysical Evidence (Continued)
•
Disposition of the crop (use). Examples of nonphysical evidence includes, but is not
limited to:
•
receipts showing number and units sold if the sale can be positively identified as sale
of the crop for the farm for the year represented
•
a written contract or documentation of an oral contract to produce a specific crop
•
records showing the crop was fed to livestock
•
documentation of payment for custom harvesting indicating acreage, location, and
crop year
•
evidence that was accepted and approved by another USDA agency.
C Late Filed FSA-578 With a Farm Visit
A producer may file a late-filed FSA-578 when all of the following apply:
•
producer pays the cost of a farm visit and the costs of verification and determination of
crop acreage, and the determined acreage is loaded into CARS and certified
Note: If payment of these costs is not remitted, do not process or take any action on the
late-filed FSA-578.
Exception:
•
Long-term perennial crops may be verified and determined for the current
year by current or previous year NAIP imagery. If using the previous
year’s NAIP imagery, a comparison to the previous year’s acreage
reports, if available, or further verification of NAIP imagery in the prior
2 to 4 years is required.
physical existence of the late-filed crop or crop residue for the crop year being reported
currently exists, to support the determination of acreage
Notes: A late-filed FSA-578 cannot be accepted or revised after the field visit has been
completed.
Prevented planted acreage cannot be accepted as late-filed because there is no
physical existence of the crop.--*

Late-Filed Report of Acreage (Continued)
Par. 27
*--C Late Filed FSA-578 With a Farm Visit (Continued)
•
the crop’s use can be verified
•
the crop’s acreage for the specific crop year can still be determined by FSA.
Example 1:
A producer files FSA-578 for Field 1 on the farm by the ARD. After the
ARD but by the subsequent year’s ARD, the producer late-files FSA-578 for
Field 2. This is considered a late-filed FSA-578.
Example 2:
A producer reports corn as the initial crop on Field 1 of the farm by ARD.
The producer then late-files FSA-578 reporting wheat in Field 1 as the initial
crop. This is a late-filed FSA-578 resulting in a modification of an existing
status code.
Example 3:
A producer timely reports corn by the ARD as the initial crop on Field 1 of a
farm. The producer requests to revise the crop from corn to soybeans on
Field 1 at a later date. This is considered a revision according to
subparagraph 28.
Note: Acreage reports submitted after the subsequent year’s ARD will not be processed and
will not be used for program purposes.--*
D Accepting CIMS Data for Late-Filed FSA-578
RMA data will be used to satisfy the requirement for FSA-578 if the crop information for
insured crops was reported timely to RMA.
The insured crop reported to RMA must match the crop and crop type reported to FSA.
Notes: RMA data must be CIMS data and not crop insurance agent records. Crop insurance
data in CIMS is considered reported timely to RMA which means timely filed to FSA.
FSA data in CIMS is not acceptable, it must be RMA data in CIMS.
The acreage reported to RMA and FSA may differ for legitimate reasons, such as
double crop, subsequent crop, and prevented planting provisions.
The following are examples of when CIMS data can be used to satisfy the requirement for
acreage report as timely filed:
4-12-24
Example 1:
Producer timely reports 100 acres of corn and 100 acres of soybeans to RMA
and files an acreage report with FSA after the ARD reporting showing
100 acres of corn/YEL/GR and 100 acres of soybeans/COM/GR. FSA will
accept the producer’s acreage report as timely filed based on CIMS data.
Example 2:
Producer timely reports 200 acres of corn to RMA and files an acreage report
with FSA after the ARD reporting showing 100 acres of corn/YEL/GR and
100 acres of soybeans/COM/GR. Since the soybean acreage report is not
supported by CIMS data, late-filed provisions will apply to the soybeans.
FSA will accept corn as timely filed based on CIMS data.

Par. 27
Late-Filed Report of Acreage (Continued)
D Accepting CIMS Data for Late-Filed FSA-578 (Continued)
Example 3:
Producer timely reports 200 acres of corn to RMA and files an acreage report
with FSA after the ARD reporting showing 215 acres of corn/YEL/GR. Since
the acreage report is supported by CIMS data, FSA will accept corn as timely
filed.
Example 4:
Producer reports 215 acres of corn to RMA and files an acreage report with
FSA after the ARD reporting showing 200 acres of corn/YEL/GR. Since the
acreage report is supported by CIMS data, FSA will accept corn as timely
filed.
Example 5:
Producer reports 200 acres of corn to RMA and files an acreage report with
FSA after the ARD reporting showing 200 acres of corn/YEL/GR and 15 acres
of fallow. Since the fallow is not reported by the ARD, late-file provisions
will apply to the fallow acreage. FSA will accept corn as timely filed based on
CIMS data.
E Late-File Fee Refunds When CIMS Data Is Accepted
The following table provides guidance on refunding late file fees when CIMS data is
available.
IF…
a producer late-files and pays a late-file
fee based on costs of measurements/field
visit and FSA has performed the required
field visit and CIMS data is available
a producer late-files and pays a late-file
fee based on costs of measurements/field
visit and FSA has not performed the
required field visit and CIMS data is

be refunded.
F Late-Filed FSA-578 for NAP APH, CRP Cropping History, and FSFL History
A late filed FSA-578 will be accepted for processing after physical existence of the crop or
crop residue is gone if the producer:
4-12-24
•
is reporting acreage for establishing an APH data base for NAP eligibility purposes,
cropping history for CRP purposes, FSFL history, or ARC-IC data base
•
provides acceptable evidence, to COC’s satisfaction, to prove existence and disposition
of the crop.

existence of the crop
THEN COC may accept nonphysical evidence, such as…
• seed receipts showing the amount, variety, and date purchased
• receipts for cleaning, treating, etc., for seed planted on the farm
• documentation obtained and certified by another Governmental agency indicating
the acreage, location, and crop year
• acreage reported for any crop insurance policy or loss adjustment
• a written contract or documentation of an oral contract to produce a specific crop
• aerial or digital slides, if a positive determination can be made of the crop’s
identity and boundaries
disposition of the crop
• evidence that was accepted and approved by RMA or another USDA agency.
• receipts showing number and units sold if the sale can be positively identified as
sale of the crop for the farm for the year represented
•
a written contract or documentation of an oral contract to produce a specific crop
•
records showing the crop was fed to livestock
•
positive documentation of payment for custom harvesting indicating acreage,
location, and crop year
•
evidence that was accepted and approved by RMA or another USDA agency.
Notes: If evidence accepted and approved by RMA or another USDA agency is provided,
proof of crop disposition is not required.
A farm visit is not required.
G Late-Filed Fees and Acreage Verification
A late filed FSA-578 requires payment of a fee based on the rates of measurement service to
verify and determine the crop acreage, type, use, and practice unless either of the following
exceptions applies:
●*--reasons beyond the producer’s control as specified in subparagraph H--*
•

Late-Filed Report of Acreage (Continued)
Par. 27
G Late-Filed Fees and Acreage Verification (Continued)
The late-filed acreage reporting fee is equal to the measurement service fee according to
paragraph 928.
Note: FSA-409 is not required to be completed for late file acreage reports. However, the
County Office must still document receipt of the late file fee and therefore may use
the form for record keeping.
When a producer pays the late-file fee, the producer’s reported acres are loaded just as they
were reported and certified, and those reported and FSA determined acres must each be
loaded into CARS.
Note: If CCC-576, Notice of Loss, is late filed in conjunction with a late-filed acreage
report, only the late-file acreage reporting fee will be charged.
H Considering a Late-Filed Report Timely Filed by Exception
The County Office can process a producer’s late-filed acreage report and process it the same
as if filed by ARD if all of the following apply:
•
the producer’s late filed acreage report is accompanied by a written statement explaining
the reasons how or why the producer was prevented from filing the acreage report by
ARD
Note: The reasons presented must detail circumstances that were beyond the producer’s
control and cannot include being unaware of the ARD or need to file the acreage
report. Some examples of reasons COC may consider as legitimately beyond the
producer’s control include:
•
•
a serious health issue prevented the producer from visiting the Service Center
during normal business hours of the reporting period to file the report
•
an unforeseen event (farm or automobile accident or storm that closed roads)
occurred which caused the producer to be unable to visit the Service Center in
the reporting period to file the report by ARD.
COC determines, based on a review of the acreage report and accompanying written
statement, that the producer was prevented from filing the acreage report by ARD
because of a circumstance or circumstances beyond the producer’s control.
Note: These situations and approvals of exceptions for reasons beyond a producer’s control
should be rare and must be documented. COC’s are expected to use appropriate
discretion in granting these exceptions. A producer claiming the producer was
unaware of the requirement to report acreage or the ARD is not justification for an
exception.
Producer’s reported acres are loaded just as they were reported and certified and both those
reported and FSA determined must be loaded. FSA will not modify the producer’s reported
acres to match FSA determined acres.

Partial and Revised Reports
A Partial FSA-578’s
A partial FSA-578 for a farm will exist when:
•
•
at least 1 crop has been reported
all acreage on the farm has not been reported.
B Revising Crop or Acres
A crop revision is deleting one crop and adding a new crop to that same acreage before or
after the ARD.
An acreage revision is revising the acreage of a reported field or subfield before or after the
ARD. FSA-578’s may be revised for crop or acreage at any time before the ARD if the
revision is reported:
•
by the ARD for the crop being revised, a farm visit fee will not be assessed and field visit
is optional to verify physical evidence of the change
•
after the ARD for the crop being revised, a farm visit fee will be assessed and a field visit
is required. RMA data shall not be accepted as verification for revising acreage
information.
Note: The revised FSA-578 may not nullify the results of a spot check if the results of the
spot check have been provided to the operator. Revisions are not permitted after the
determined acres of the crop have been established.
FSA-578 cannot be revised for a crop after the subsequent year’s ARD for the crop.
Even though a field visit is not required if the crop or acreage revision is made by the ARD
for the crop, the COC may elect to conduct a field visit to substantiate the requested revision.
A fee will not be assessed in this instance.
If the crop or acreage revision is made after the ARD, a field visit is required and a fee will be
assessed.
Note: CIMS data cannot be used to revise an acreage report.
*--Crops reported by the ARD cannot be revised to cover crops.--*

Par. 28
Partial and Revised Reports (Continued)
B Revising Crop or Acres (Continued)
The following examples explain when a late-file fee will be accessed for a revision.
Example 1:
Producer A reports corn in fields 1 and 3 as the initial crop on a farm by the
ARD. Producer A returns to the office by the ARD to report fields 2 and 3 to
soybeans and discovers previously reported field 3 should be soybeans.
Because this change was made by the ARD for corn, this is considered a
revision, and Producer A will not be charged a late file fee.
Example 2:
Producer A reports corn in fields 1 and 3 as the initial crop on a farm by the
ARD. Producer A discovers an error on his crop report and returns to the
office after the final ARD to revise field 3 to soybeans. Because this revision
was made after the ARD a farm visit fee will be assessed and a field visit is
required to verify physical evidence of the soybeans due to the change.
Example 3:
Producer A reports field 1 to wheat, field 2 to oats, and field 3 to alfalfa by the
ARD. Producer A returns to the office and reports field 4 to corn and
discovers field 2 should have been wheat as well. Since the revision is taking
place after the wheat ARD, a farm visit fee will be assessed and a field visit is
required to verify physical evidence of the wheat due to the change.
C Revising Intended Use
For 2016 and subsequent years the intended use can be revised:
•
any time by the ARD for the crop
•*--if there is a new operator on the farm and the revision is made within 30 calendar days--*
of acquiring a new lease or 30 days from the date the land ownership transferred.
Note: Appropriate documentation must be provided to the COC’s satisfaction to
determine that a legitimate operator change occurred.
9-10-18
Example 1:
Operator A reported perennial forage by the November 15 reporting deadline.
In January, Operator A decided to discontinue the lease on that acreage.
Operator B subsequently leases the acreage on February 1 and requests to
revise the intended use of the perennial forage on February 20. Since the
request has been made within 30 days of Operator B acquiring land, the
revision will be approved.
Example 2:
Operator A reported perennial forage by the November 15 reporting deadline.
On December 15, Owner B transferred ownership of the acreage to Owner C.
On January 10, Operator A requests to revise the intended use of the perennial
forage. Even though there was no change in operator, the intended use of the
perennial forage may be revised if filed by either Operator A or the new owner
within 30 days of when ownership of land transferred.

Partial and Revised Reports (Continued)
C Revising Intended Use (Continued)
All elements of an acreage report can be revised through the crop’s ARD.
Except as provided in this paragraph, after the ARD, the intended use field previously
certified must not be revised.
In situations where the actual use is different than the intended use, such as short-rated wheat,
County Offices can record the actual use as indicated in paragraph 162.
Exception:
If the cropland has been reported as cover only, and the crop was not
terminated according to the guidelines in subparagraph 32 C, follow the
guidelines in subparagraph 32 E.
D Revising Shares
Shares may be revised at any time before or after the ARD for the crop if the revised shares
can be verified by providing documentation to COC’s satisfaction. For example, a lease
showing the shares.
Note: Revisions to shares may have payment implications for programs that rely on
FSA-578 shares.
E Revising Irrigation Practice
Once certified, the irrigation practice may be changed only if both of the following are met:
•
requested by the operator, owner, or producer
•
verified with acceptable RMA data, such as CIMS showing a timely filed report of acreage
to RMA. If CIMS does not provide data to support the producer’s irrigation practice, it is
the producer’s responsibility to provide proper evidence, if questioned.
Additional documentation is not required if irrigation or non-irrigation on the field is apparent
to COC. For example, if a field was inadvertently reported as irrigated but no irrigation
equipment is on the farm, COC can permit the revision to non-irrigated. In another example,
if the field was inadvertently reported as non-irrigated but the field has a pivot with all
surrounding fields being irrigated, COC can accept the inadvertent error and permit the
revision.
*--Notes: If the lack of adequate water supply is due to an eligible cause of loss as provided in
1-NAP, paragraph 51, the crop does not need to be revised to non-irrigated and may be
considered an irrigated practice.
If the COC has reason to know the crop was not irrigated or adequate water was not
available for irrigation, the COC has authority to revise the irrigation practice.--*

F Revising Planting Date
For 2016 and subsequent years, a producer may revise the planting date for a crop any time
through the crop’s ARD.
G Revising Acreage Reports for Destruction of Crops Before Harvest
Acreage reports must be revised for crop acreage that has been destroyed because of a natural
disaster, but before acres have been harvested.
Crops that have been destroyed for reasons other than a natural disaster:
•
•
the acreage will not receive credit for any purpose
a fee to verify destruction will be assessed if required by the program.
Important:
A paid-for visit must be conducted for FAV’s and wild rice destroyed without
benefit before harvest. See 1-ARCPLC.
If a paid-for fee is required by a program and destruction is verified, the producer must revise
the acreage report to reflect the change. A copy of FSA-409 will be attached to FSA-578 to
document the destruction of acreage.
Example: Producer A reports 7 acres of peas and requests to destroy 3 acres on a farm
without benefit. The producer must notify COC of intent to destroy and pay for a
farm visit. Once COC verifies the destruction of the crop, the producer must
return to the County Office and revise FSA-578 by changing the 7 acres reported
as peas to 4 acres. Make a new entry for the acreage that was destroyed and report
the acreage accordingly. If a subsequent or double crop is reported, an entry for
the acreage destroyed is not required.
Notes: If this producer had NAP coverage on peas, only the 4 acres remaining would be
eligible for benefit in the event a natural disaster subsequently impacted the crop.
Destroyed acreage must be removed from CARS by entering determined acres as zero
and adding a subfield to identify the new crop.
H Processing Revised Acreage Reports
Processing a revised acreage report does not guarantee program eligibility.
Note: See specific program procedure for guidelines for eligibility.

WRP Acreage
A Introduction
Under certain conditions, NRCS will allow planting of a crop on acres that have been
enrolled in WRP.
B Planting and Harvesting Crops on WRP Acreage
Under NRCS procedure, land enrolled in WRP is under the control of the landowner or
operator until the WRP easement is recorded or the restoration agreement is approved. Any
crops planted before the easement is recorded or the restoration agreement is approved can be
harvested. Crops may also be planted and harvested during the crop year following the
easement closing when the easement is recorded after October 1. Any subsequent cropping
after the easement is closed is prohibited, unless specifically authorized by NRCS.
C Reporting Crops Planted on WRP Easement Acreage
There are different situations in which a producer may be granted permission by NRCS to
plant crops on WRP easement land. The following examples are provided to clarify how the
land must be reported on FSA-578.
Example 1:
WRP easement is recorded on July 20, 2016. The producer is allowed to
harvest crops planted before the easement was recorded. This acreage must
be reported on FSA-578 as the crop that is planted on the WRP acreage.
Example 2:
WRP easement is filed on October 4, 2016. The producer may harvest crops
planted before the easement was recorded and plant crops before July 1, 2017,
for crop year 2017. Crops planted in this example must be reported on
FSA-578 as the crop planted on the WRP acreage.
The producer is prohibited from planting crops beginning July 1, 2017; any
crop planted on or after July 1, 2017, must be reported as WRP.

Example 3:
For easement projects, in situations where there would be a substantial savings
in restoration costs, the producer may be granted special temporary
permission by NRCS to crop that portion of the WRP easement that, if left
idle, would subsequently need special site preparation as a part of the
restoration effort.
This NRCS policy authorizes special temporary permission to crop easement
lands only when it is possible to initiate the restoration practice before costly
site preparation occurs. Producers who use this cropping policy do so at their
own risk. They are not entitled to any USDA benefits related to such
cropping. This acreage planted to a crop according to this example must be
reported on FSA-578 as WRP.
Producers are notified in writing by NRCS of cropping rights for WRP
easement land. A copy of the notification is also provided to the producer’s
local FSA office.

Cover Crop Guidelines
A Introduction
Cover crops and the benefits of planting cover crops has gained strong interest among
agricultural producers in recent years. Cover crops fulfill a variety of farming objectives
when put into practice. Some examples of cover crop benefits may include: reduced soil
erosion, preservation of soil moisture, reduction of crop inputs, weed control and improved
soil health.
To ensure that USDA policies are coordinated and up to date with evolving cover crop
practices, the Administrators of the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), Risk
Management Agency (RMA) and Farm Service Agency (FSA) organized an interagency
workgroup to develop consistent, simple and flexible policy across the three agencies.
National and local experts, along with multiple stakeholders, were involved in the process.
Research literature, plant growth, soil hydrology models, and input from national/local
experts in cover crop management provided the basis for developing cover crop guidelines
that are applicable to all USDA programs
B Definition of Cover Crop
Cover crop means crops, including grasses, legumes, and forbs, for seasonal cover and other
conservation purposes. Cover crops are primarily used for erosion control, soil health
improvement, and water quality improvement. The cover crop may be terminated by natural
causes, such as frost, or intentionally terminated through chemical application, crimping,
rolling, tillage, or cutting.
Note: A cover crop managed and terminated according to NRCS Cover Crop Termination
Guidelines is not considered a crop for crop insurance purposes.
These crops are used primarily for their conservation benefit and not for grain or forage
harvest. They are typically annual, winter annual or biennial type plants used as temporary
soil cover between cash crops as opposed to perennial plants that are planted for the purpose
of establishing pasture, rangeland or other permanent vegetative cover.
For acreage reporting purposes, a cover crop is certified cover crop, 0319, COVRC, along
with one of the 4 crop types in subparagraph D, and an intended use code of “CO”. The
cover crop may be grazed, hayed or foraged, provided the primary use is a conserving cover.
It is critical that the producer, when reporting acreage to USDA distinguish whether the crop
is being used primarily for cover, grain, grazing or forage.
Cover crops can be planted:
4-11-18
before a subsequent crop
after prevented planting acreage
after a planted crop
with no subsequent crop planted
into a standing crop.

C Termination Guidelines
To be an acceptable cover crop, a cover crop must be properly terminated according to

causes, such as frost, or intentionally terminated through chemical application, crimping,
rolling, tillage, or cutting.
The termination guidelines:

Beginning with the 2017 crop year, cover crops meeting the termination guidelines, as
provided in subparagraph C, will be reported as Cover Crop, 0319, COVRC, with an intended
use of “CO” and 1 of the following 4 crop types.
Crop Type
Cereals & other
grasses
Legumes
Brassicas & other
broadleaves
Mixtures
Definition
Includes any cover crop that is classified as a grass plant or cereal
grain and would include but not be limited to the following cover
crops - cereal rye, wheat, barley, oats, black oats, triticale, annual
ryegrass, pearl millet, foxtail millet (also called German, Italian or
Hungarian millet), sorghum sudangrass, sorghum and other millets
and grasses.
Includes any cover crop that is classified as a legume, including
but not limited to clovers, vetches, peas, sun hemp, cowpeas,
lentils and other legumes.
This category includes any cover crop that is classified as a nonlegume broadleaf, including but not limited to Brassicas such
as radishes, turnips, canola, rapeseed, oilseed rape, and mustards,
as well as other broadleaf plants such as phacelia, flax, sunflower,
buckwheat, and safflower.
Includes fields where mixes of two or more cover crop species are
planted at the same time, for example oats and radishes.
If crop acreage reported as a cover crop is harvested for any use other than forage or grazing
and is not terminated according to subparagraph C, that crop will no longer be considered a
cover crop. The acreage must be revised to the actual crop according to paragraph 28.
*--If the cover crop is not reported by ARD, late file provisions apply according to
paragraph 27.--*

Par. 32
E Revising Acreage When Cover Crop Was Not Terminated
When crop acreage is reported as a cover crop, but is not terminated according to
subparagraph C, the acreage report must be revised. The crop is not considered a cover crop
unless it is terminated; therefore, the crop that was initially reported as a cover crop must be
revised. This is necessary as a cover crop is not considered as reported cropland. For
example, rye was planted as a cover crop and recorded as such, but rye was not terminated
according to subparagraph C. The rye was incorporated into the soil, so the crop needs to be
revised to rye and the intended use needs to be revised to GM.
Example: Wheat that was reported as a cover crop (crop code 0319) with a type of CEG, but
the cover crop was not terminated according to subparagraph C. The crop needs to
be revised to wheat (crop code 0011).
*--Notes: When COC has knowledge that the cover crop has not been terminated, the
County Office will notify the producer of the need for a revision.
Late-filed provisions apply according to paragraph 27 when acreage reports
are revised according to this subparagraph.--*

Reporting Organic Crops
A Reporting Organic
Crop acreage is not required to be reported as organic; however, a producer may choose to
report organic. If a producer is participating in NAP and wants to use the NAP organic
price, then the crop acreage must be reported as organic.
The buffer zone acreage must be included in the reported organic crop acreage of the unit
that it buffers, either transitional or certified organic acreage, and reported on the same basis.
B Required Documentation
When an acreage report is filed for an organic crop, the producer must provide a current
*--organic plan, organic certificate (written certificate), and documentation from a certifying--*
agent indicating an organic plan is in effect.
Notes: NOP standards allow an exemption for a grower whose annual gross agricultural
income from organic sales totals $5,000 or less to be exempted from certification.
Although a grower is not required to provide a written certificate, the producer is still
required to provide a map showing the specific location of each field of certified
organic, transitional, and buffer zone acreage.
If the producer cannot provide the required documentation, the acreage cannot be
reported as organic.
*--If the crop was reported as conventional by the ARD, the crop cannot be revised to
organic after the ARD.--*
C Certified Organic
For a certified organic acreage report the producer must provide a current organic plan and a
recent written certification in effect from a certifying agent. The documentation must
provide all of the following:
•
name of the person(s) certified
Note: The certificate must be in the name of the person certifying the acreage.
4-12-24
•
address
•
telephone number
•
effective date of certification (or certificate)
2-CP (Rev. 16) Amend. 28

C Certified Organic (Continued)
•
certificate number
•
list of commodities certified
•
name and address of the certifying agent
•
a map showing the specific location of each field of certified organic, including the buffer
zone acreage.
*--Notes: If an approved plan ss not in effect by the ARD, the producer must provide in writing,
that the producer has requested a written certification or an approved plan from a
certifying agent by the ARD.--*
Because the organic certificate may not be issued every year, it is possible that the
organic certificate may not list every crop the producer may plant.
Scenario: An organic certificate was issued in 2015 and lists: corn, oats, dry beans, and
wheat. The next crop year, the insured plants canola, flax, and dry peas which are
not listed on the organic certificate. The organic plan has not been updated for
the current crop year to show these crops. In this case:
3-8-23
Example 1:
The type of organic operation is still “crops,” and as long as the canola, flax,
and dry peas were grown on ground that had previously been identified in the
organic plan to be certified organic, the crops would be considered under the
organic practice, as “certified organic”.
Example 2:
Using the same scenario above, the “Certificate” lists livestock or the type of
livestock, such as hogs, sheep, cattle, etc. In this case, the type of organic
operation cannot is not identified as “crops” because the written “Certificate”
lists livestock or the type of livestock, such as hogs, sheep, cattle, etc. The
commodity type is not be “crops”, but “livestock”. Therefore, the crops (e.g.,
canola, flax, and dry peas, etc.) cannot be considered certified organic under
the written “Certificate”.

D Transitional Acreage
For a transitional (converting conventional acreage to certified organic acreage) organic
acreage report, except as noted in subparagraph B, the producer must provide an organic plan
and written documentation from a certifying agent indicating an organic plan is in effect. The
organic plan must:
•
identify the acreage that is in transition for organic certification
•
list crops grown on the acreage during the 36 month transitioning period
•
include all other acreage, including conventional acreage, in the farming operation
•
provide a map showing the specific location of each field of transitional, including the
buffer zone acreage.
*--Note: If an approved plan is not in effect by the ARD, the producer must provide in
writing, that the producer has requested a written certification or an approved plan
from the certifying agent by the ARD.--*

Hoop Houses or High Tunnels
Par. 34
A Introduction
There has been a growing interest in the production and reporting of crops in High Tunnels.
NRCS currently offers cost-share assistance for the building of what is referred to as High
Tunnel or Hoop Houses. To be eligible for cost-share the structure must be built on cropland
acreage.
B Definition of Hoop or High Tunnel
A Hoop House or High Tunnel is a structure which is considered a controlled environment.
The purpose is for crop and plant production to be grown outside of recognized planting dates
or zones for the State. Producers use this practice to expand their marketing outside normal
planting dates for their region. Crops grown within these structures may be eligible for
program benefits; however, any crop or plant loss will not be recognized outside the normal
planting period recognized by the State.
High Tunnels where plants are being grown in pots or above ground are not considered
cropland.
C Reporting High Tunnels on FSA-578
*--CARS currently allows for acreage reporting to .000001 acres which is approximately a
2.5 inch by 2.5 inch area. Reporting of individual plants can now be recorded in CARS.--*

Continuous Perennial Forage
A Certify Acreage
To streamline the acreage reporting process, a method to certify selected perennial crops on
a continuous basis was developed as a pilot program starting in 2016. This process was
developed to reduce:
producer visits to the County Office
CARS network congestion.
Continuous certification allows a producer to report the certified acreage so it will roll
forward annually and does not require additional action on the part of the producer or FSA in
subsequent years unless a change to the acreage report occurs.
B Continuous Certification Process
The continuous certification process for perennial crops requires an initial certification on
FSA-578. The producer may select the continuous certification option at any time after the
crop is certified.
The following table provides information on operator and producer enrollment into
continuous certification.
IF the continuous certification
option is selected by…
the operator
any producer sharing in the crop
THEN the continuous certification is applicable to…
all fields on the farm for the specific crop/crop
type/intended use.
field(s) in which the producer has a share for the specific
crop/crop type/intended use.
If the continuous certification option is selected by the applicable final reporting date in the
subsequent year, the acreage report is considered timely filed for the current year and will
remain in effect for subsequent years until any change is reported to FSA.
Example 1:
Operator Smith reports Grass/NAG/GZ for 2017 by the applicable final
reporting date and selects the continuous certification option. For 2017 and
subsequent years, operator Smith’s FSA-578 for Grass/NAG/GZ is considered
certified and no additional action is required by operator Smith or FSA until a
change occurs.
*--Note: The County Office will maintain FSA-578 for the duration of the enrollment period
and notate on FSA-578 that it is enrolled in continuous certification.--*

B Continuous Certification Process
Example 2:
Operator Smith reports Grass/NAG/GZ for 2017 by the applicable final
reporting date and does not select the continuous certification option.
Operator Smith returns to the office 3 weeks after the final reporting date and
selects the continuous certification option. For 2018 and subsequent years,
operator Smith’s FSA-578 for Grass/NAG/GZ is considered certified and no
additional action is required by operator Smith or FSA until a change occurs.
Example 3:
Operator Smith reports Grass/NAG/GZ for 2017 by the applicable final
reporting date, but does not select the continuous certification option. In 2018,
operator Smith comes to the office after the final acreage reporting date and
wants to select the continuous certification option. For 2018, the
Grass/NAG/GZ is considered late-filed and operator Smith must file a 2018
FSA-578 prior to submitting a FSA-578C to select the continuous certification
option.
Crops reported under continuous certification are subject to the same compliance spot checks
as other FSA-578’s.
C Selecting Continuous Certification
Producers may select continuous certification for perennial forage crops using
FSA-578C * * *. The producers enrolling in continuous certification must have a share of the
perennial crop.
Enrollment will be at the farm level by crop, crop type, and intended use.
Note: The continuous certification process does not prevent any producer from filing an
annual acreage report.

Continuous Perennial Forage (Continued)
D Terminating Continuous Certification
The producer can terminate continuous certification for the farm at any time by crop, crop
type, and intended use.
Note: This will terminate continuous certification for all fields of the crop, crop type, and
intended use for the farm.
The continuous certification will automatically be terminated if any of the following changes
occur:
changes in farm records, including producer changes
changes in CARS
determined acres are different than reported
acreage report is revised
enrolled crop is no longer certified
crop, crop type, and intended use is no longer an eligible perennial crop
changes in the CLU greater than 1 acre for the field with continuous certification
farm reconstitution.
Note: Deleting a field or fields of the enrolled crop, crop type, and intended use will not
terminate the continuous certification.
Example 1:
Operator A timely reports 5 fields of native grass (NAG) for grazing on the
2017 FSA-578 for FSN 10 and selects the continuous certification option.
Operator A loses the grazing lease on FSN 10 for the 2018 crop year. The
continuous certification on FSN 10 is terminated because the producer no
longer has an interest in the crop.
Example 2: Producer A reports NAG for grazing on the 2017 FSA-578 for FSN 50 and
elects to participate in the continuous certification option on this particular
crop. The NAG for grazing on FSN 50 is reported by Producer A on field 1.
Producer A also reports brome grass for forage on field 2 of FSN 50 and
chooses not to participate in the continuous certification on FSN 50 for that
crop. The County Office reduces 1.3 acres from a CLU (field 2) on FSN 50
due to construction of a home on the farm. The continuous certification is not
terminated on FSN 50, because the CLU change was on field 2 and the crop
certified on field 2 is not enrolled in continuous certification.

Example 3:
Producer A reports 5 fields of common bermuda grass (BCM) for grazing on
the 2017 FSA-578 for FSN 100 and elects to participate in the continuous
certification option. At the same time, Producer A also reported 2 fields (field
1 and 2) of BCM for forage and does not include these two fields in the
continuous acreage certification enrollment. The producer informs the County
Office prior to the 2018 final ARD for perennial grass that the intended use
for fields 1 and 2 will be grazing for 2018 instead of forage. The continuous
certification is not terminated because none of the fields with an existing
continuous certification was revised. Field 1 and 2 will automatically be
added to the continuous certification election and the producer does not need
another FSA-578C completed.
Example 4:
Producer A reports 10 fields of BCM for grazing on the 2017 FSA-578 for
FSN 1 and elects to participate in the continuous certification option. The
producer informs the County Office prior to the 2018 final ARD for perennial
grass that the intended use will be forage instead of grazing for 2018 for 2 of
the fields on this farm. The continuous certification is terminated and the
producer must complete another.

Prevented Planted Acreage Credit
A Definition of Prevented Planting
Prevented planting is the inability to plant the intended crop acreage with proper
*--equipment by the final planting date for the crop type because of a natural disaster, as
defined in 1-NAP, paragraph 51 (cause of loss).--*
The inability to plant a crop includes the following situations:
•
irrigated crops were not planted because of a lack of water expected to be available by the
final planting date
Note: See Exhibit 2 for definitions of adequate water supply or source, good irrigation
practice, irrigation, and irrigation equipment and facilities.
4-12-24
•
for non-irrigated crops that were not planted by the final planting date because of
insufficient soil moisture
•
for cropland that was under water at the time of the final planting date.

Page 2-43
37
Par. 37
Prevented Planted Acreage Credit (Continued)
B Prevented Planting Acreage Credit
The eligible cause of loss that prevented the planting of a crop must be all of the following:
•
occurred after a previous planting period for the crop
•
occurred before the final planting date for the crop in the applicable crop year or, in the
case of multiple plantings, the harvest date of the first planting in the applicable planting
period
•
similarly affected other producers in the area, as determined by FSA.
COC may approve acreage as “prevented planted acreage” if all other conditions for approval
are met and provided, and all of the following conditions are met:
•
producers report the acreage to FSA within 15 calendar days after the final planting date
determined for the crop by FSA, or
•
if the acreage reported is after the timeframe, a farm visit verifying eligible disaster
conditions that prevented the specified crop or acreage from being planted is performed
Note: Under no circumstance may acreage reported after the 15-day period be approved
unless a field visit to verify eligible disaster conditions is completed. State and
County Committees do not have authority to waive this field visit and verification
provisions.
•
all determinations made during field inspections must be documented on each late-filed
acreage report, with results recorded in COC minutes
•
the acreage must have been prevented from being planted as the result of a natural
disaster and not a management decision
Note: To receive prevented planting acreage credit, the producer must demonstrate an intent
to plant the acreage by providing documentation of field preparation, seed purchase,
and any other information necessary to prove intent.

Prevented Planted Acreage Credit (Continued)
C Prevented Planted Acreage Credit Because of Drought
Prevented planted acreage credit will not be given where the prevented planted acreage was
affected by drought, unless all of the following apply:
•
on the final date for non-irrigated acreage, the area that is prevented from being planted
has insufficient soil moisture for germination of seed
•*--prolonged precipitation deficiencies that meet D3 or D4 drought level as determined--*
by the U.S. Drought Monitor
•
verifiable information must be collected from sources whose business or purpose is
recording weather conditions as determined by FSA and the sources will include, but are
not limited to:
•
U.S. National Weather Service
•
Bureau of Reclamation
•
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
•
NIFA
•
NRCS
•
local irrigation authorities responsible for water allocations
•
State Department of Water Resources
•
CES
•
other sources responsible for the collection of water data or regulation of water
resources (water allocations).
Prevented planted acreage credit applies to irrigated crops where the acreage was prevented
planted because of a lack of water of an irrigated supply resulting from drought conditions, or
contamination from saltwater intrusion of an irrigation supply resulting from drought
conditions, if there was not a reasonable probability of having adequate water to carry out an
irrigation practice.

Acreage ineligible for prevented planted credit includes, but is not limited to, acreage:
•
not planted because of a management decision
Note: Failure to plant when other producers in the area were planting will result in the
denial of the prevented planting claim.
•
required to be left unharvested under the terms of the lease or any other agreement
•
where any other person receives a prevented planted payment for any crop for the same
crop year, unless double-cropping requirements have been met
•
where pasture or another forage crop is in place on the acreage during the time that
planting of the crop generally occurs in the area
•
used for conservation purposes or intended to be or considered to have been left
unplanted under any program administered by USDA, including CRP planting history or
conservation plans indicated would remain fallow for crop rotation purposes
•
affected by the containment or release of water by any governmental, public, or private
dam or reservoir project, if an easement exists on the acreage affected for the
containment or release of the water
•
where there is an inadequate supply of irrigation water beginning before the RMA sales
closing date for the previous crop year or the NAP application closing date for the crop
according to 1-NAP, paragraph 300 through the final planting date of the current year
Note: See subparagraphs D and E for exceptions for ineligible acreage when irrigation
water is reduced, and Exhibit 2 for the definition of an adequate water supply or

where reduction in irrigation water supply is because of participation in an electricity
buy-back program, the sale of water under a water buy-back is ineligible for prevented
planted credit, or changes in water use because of legislation changes or any other cause
which is not a natural disaster

E Exceptions for Ineligible Prevented Planted Acreage When Ground Water Is Reduced
If source information is not available to indicate the amount of irrigation water that would
be provided from a snow pack, precipitation, and inflows beginning on the prior years’
RMA or NAP normal harvest date for the crop, then for the current year, prevented planted
credit will be restricted to the amount of crop acres irrigated in the previous year.
Example: Producer normally irrigates 1000 acres with ground water. In 2017, producer
Plants 750 acres and is prevented planting on 250 acres because of drought. For
the 2017 crop year, there is no information available as to the amount of water
that would be available to irrigate the acreage under normal snow pack,
precipitation, and inflow conditions. Ultimately for 2017, the producer receives
enough water to irrigate 650 acres. Only 100 acres would be eligible for
prevented planted because eligibility is determined based on the 750 planted acres
irrigated in 2016.
F Timely Reporting of Prevented Planting
To be considered timely, producers who request prevented planting acreage credit for a crop
not covered by NAP must complete CCC-576, Part B within 15 calendar days after, but not
before, the final planting date. CCC-576 can be filed be completed before the acreage being
reported on FSA-578.
Producers may initiate CCC-576 by calling the County Office or they may print and
complete CCC-576 from home and send completed CCC-576 to their County Office. The
County Office may also mail or e-mail CCC-576 in response to a producer’s request.
Notes: If the producer mails CCC-576 to the County Office, it must be postmarked by the
ARD in the county to be considered timely filed.
Producers may access CCC-576 at eForms Home (usda.gov).
County Offices must use established final planting dates according to subparagraph 22 A for
reporting prevented planting acres. After CCC-576 is submitted, it cannot be withdrawn or
revised. CCC-576 cannot be filed for a crop before its final planting date.

County Offices that accept a prevented planted claim (CCC-576), Part B more than
15 calendar days after the final planting date can consider CCC-576, Part B timely filed,
regardless of when it is received, if the producer has crop insurance coverage for the crop and
timely filed a prevented planted claim to the reinsurance company.
Acceptable RMA data used to accept a late-filed claim includes information in CIMS
showing a timely filed prevented planting claim to RMA. If CIMS does not provide data to
support the producer’s certification or prevented planted acreage on FSA-578 and CCC-576,
it is the producer’s responsibility to provide proper evidence that the prevented planted claim
was filed timely with the reinsurance company.
Notes: All other crops not covered by crop insurance must meet the 15 calendar-day
requirement provided in this subparagraph or be subject to the late-filed provisions in
paragraph 27.
All RMA data in CIMS is considered timely filed.

G Final Planting Notes
If prevented planting acreage is reported on FSA-578 and CCC-576, Part B is filed beyond the
period identified in subparagraph E, COC will consider acceptable CCC-576’s that are filed at
such time to permit COC or their authorized representative the opportunity to:
•
make a farm visit to verify the eligible disaster conditions which prevented the specific
acreage or crop from being planted
•
determine, based on information obtained by visual inspection of the specific acreage or
crop, that eligible disaster conditions, such as damaging weather or other adverse natural
occurrences, rather than other factors, prevented the acreage or crop from being planted.
Prevented planting must be denied in each case where CCC-576, Part B is submitted beyond
the period specified in subparagraph F and at a time that would not permit COC or an
authorized representative the opportunity to make a farm visit to inspect the specific acreage
or crop to verify eligible disaster conditions that prevented the acreage or crop from being
planted.
4-12-24
Exception:
For CCC-576, Part B, submitted beyond the period specified in
subparagraph F and at a time that would not allow verification of the specific
acreage through farm inspection, RMA data may be used to accept a late-filed
CCC-576 prevented planting request, if the prevented planted acreage was
reported timely to RMA and supports the prevented planted information
reported on FSA-578. All other prevented planted provisions shall be met.
This exception does not apply to NAP. See subparagraphs 27 A, B, and C
Ufor guidance on accepting late-filed FSA-578’s.
Example 1:
Producer late-filed CCC-576 on July 10 claiming prevented planted soybeans
because of flooding. County Office employee makes a farm visit on July 17
and verifies flooding as the condition that prevented the producer from
planting the intended crop. In this case, COC may accept the late-filed
CCC-576, Part B, because flood condition can be verified by the farm visit.
Example 2:
Producer late-filed CCC-576 on June 25 claiming prevented planted corn
because of drought. Rain fell on June 30, before inspection was performed. In
this case, COC cannot accept the late-filed CCC-576, Part B, because drought
condition cannot be verified by the farm visit.

August 10, the field was determined to be dry enough for planting. In this
case, COC cannot accept the late-filed CCC-576, Part B, because wet
condition was not verified by the farm visit.
Notes: Results of the farm visit must be documented on each filed CCC-576, and recorded in
COC minutes, to support the documentation.
Late-filed fees shall apply according to paragraph 27.
H Processing Prevented Planting Claims
Producers must establish to the satisfaction of COC that:
•
all cropland feasible to plant but prevented from being planted was directly affected by a
natural disaster
Note: The unavailability of equipment, seed, or fertilizer, even if this unavailability is
because of or related to the natural disaster, is not an eligible cause of prevented
planting.
•

•
provide sufficient information for COC to determine that the claimed prevented planting
or damage to specific acreage was the result of natural disaster and not a management
decision
•
be date-stamped when received by the County Office
Note: A photocopy of the date-stamped completed CCC-576 must be given to the producer
as evidence of filing.
•
be reviewed and acted on by COC or a representative.
Notes: County Office will publicize to all producers that prevented planting acreage claims
will only be accepted on CCC-576.

N Approving Prevented Planted Acreage Claim
COC must make a determination of eligibility on each request for prevented planting acreage
credit filed by a producer. COC may request the producer show there was intent to plant the
acreage by providing documentation of field preparation, seed purchase, and other
information that shows the acreage could have been planted and harvested under normal
conditions. If COC is not satisfied with the supporting documentation provided, then the
request will be denied.
If the County Office is notified that a case involving prevented planting is under review by
other USDA agencies, such as OIG or RMA, or crop insurance companies, COC will not
make a determination on the request for prevented planting until the claim has been resolved
by the other agency or crop insurance companies.
COC will, before approving prevented planting, be satisfied that:
•
the prevented planting acreage was reported according to subparagraph G or H
•
the producer intended to plant the crop acreage for harvest
•
other producers in the area were similarly affected
Note: Failure to plant the crop when other producers in the area were planting the crop
should result in the disapproval of the prevented planting claim.
•
the reason the crop acreage could not be planted was because of natural disaster and not a
management decision
•
for a crop type with a single planting in a crop year, the eligible cause of loss occurred:
•
•
after the final planting date for the same crop type in the previous crop year
•
before the final planting date for the same crop in the crop year the request for
prevented planting credit is filed
for a crop type with multiple plantings in a single crop year, the eligible cause of loss
occurred:
• after the final planting date of the final planting period for the same crop type in the
previous crop year
•

To ensure accuracy of the acreage being reported, land that is destroyed in a
current crop year to the extent that the acreage cannot be restored, or the acreage
will no longer be tillable may need to be reclassified and unavailable for
subsequent crop year acreage credit.

Failed Acreage
A Definition of Failed Acreage
Failed acreage is acreage that was timely planted with the intent to harvest, but because of
disaster related conditions, the crop failed before it could be brought to harvest.
B Proof of Failed Acreage
Producers who are requesting failed acreage credit must prove to COC’s satisfaction that:
•
the crop was planted with an intent to harvest using farming practices consistent for the
crop and area
•
the acreage failed because of disaster-related conditions.
C Requesting Failed Acreage Credit
To request failed acreage credit, a CCC-576 must be processed according to 1-NAP (Rev. 2),
paragraph 575 * * *.
To be approved as failed acreage, the acreage must have been reported as failed acreage
before the disposition of the crop and the acreage must have been planted under normal
conditions but failed as the result of a natural disaster and not a management decision.
Exception:
10-7-22
RMA data may be used to approve CCC-576 for failed acreage, when
reported after the disposition of the crop, if the failed acreage was reported
timely to RMA and supports the failed acreage information reported on
FSA-578. This exception does not apply to crops covered by NAP.

D Verifying Failed Acreage
Verify failed acreage by 1 of the following methods:
•
crop insurance data if the data supports FSA-578
•
COC knowledge
Example: If COC has knowledge that an area is affected by a natural disaster, COC can
approve the acreage without performing a field visit.
•
field visit.
*--Notes: If the failed acreage is filed timely and a field visit is performed a fee will not be
assessed.
If the failed acreage is not reported timely and is reported after the ARD, then--*
late-filed fees will * * * according to paragraph 27.
E Approving Failed Acreage
Failed acreage determinations must be made on a case-by-case basis. After CCC-576 has
been submitted, it cannot be withdrawn or revised. If COC is not satisfied with the
supporting documentation provided, the request must be denied.
If the County Office is notified that a case involving failed acreage is under review by other
USDA Agencies, such as OIG or RMA, or crop insurance companies, COC must not make a
determination on the request for failed acreage credit until the claim has been resolved by the
other agency or crop insurance company.
Note: Action must be taken on CCC-576’s before PLC or ARC payments are processed.
F Recording Failed Acreage
Producers with claimed failed acreage must first report acreage on FSA-578. The acreage
will be recorded in the acreage reporting software as reported with a supplemental status of
“failed”. See paragraph 82 for recording failed acreage claimed as “low yield” on
CCC-576.

Failed Acreage (Continued)
G Reporting the Replanting of Failed Acreage
If the initial crop fails and the producer replants the same crop on the same land, the crop is
only to be reported once. The crop is a replacement crop, not a subsequent or double-crop.
County Offices may notate on FSA-578 that the crop was replanted.
Example 1:
Producer replants a failed crop of corn and has not reported the first planting
of the crop on FSA-578.
Failed crops that are replanted to the same crop and no acreage report has
been filed, will report the acreage only once, with planting date the date the
crop was replanted. Treat the second replanted corn crop acreage the same as
if it were the first planting of the crop.
Example 2:
Producer planted corn, the acreage failed, and the producer filed an acreage
report with a status code of “F” (failed) and CCC-576.
If the producer subsequently notifies the County Office that the acreage was
replanted to the same crop, the acreage report must be revised to remove the
“F” (failed) and change the date to reflect the date of the replanting of the
same crop. Treat the replanted corn the same crop as if it was the first
planting.
Note: Producers who report the first planting of a crop as failed and then
subsequently replant the acreage to the same crop without revising
their acreage report to reflect that the acreage was replanted may not
be eligible for LDP’s or price support loans on the acreage because the
acreage report will reflect that there will be no harvested acreage of the
crop from which production could possibly be obtained.

Double-Cropping
A Approved Double-Cropping
Approved double-cropping occurs when both of the following are met:
●*--a consecutive planting of 2 specific crops (excluding cover crop acreage) that have the
capability to be planted and carried to maturity for the intended use, as reported by the
producer, on the same acreage within a 12 month period--*
•
specific combination of crops recommended by COC is approved by STC.
Note: Crop acreage planted for cover are not considered a crop for double-cropping
purposes because cover crops are terminated. See paragraph 32 for terminating cover
crops.
One or both crops could have been prevented from planting and/or failed as long as both of
the crops had reasonable expectations and realistic possibilities of being carried to maturity
for the intended use within the same crop year under normal growing conditions.
Notes: See 1-ARCPLC for the definition of double-cropping FAV’s or wild rice with covered
commodities or peanuts.
The inclusion of a county on the list in 7 CFR 1412 does not mean that every doublecropping combination in that county is automatically approved. Counties on the list in
7 CFR 1412 are listed only for using the double-cropped FAV exception.

B Establishing Double-Cropping Crops
In advance of a crop year, COC will submit to STC recommendations of specific
combinations of crops that can annually meet the approved definition of double-cropping.
This applies to all combinations that are requested to be reported on FSA-578 as
double-cropped.
COC supporting documentation must include the following:
•
length of growing season and moisture requirements required to produce the
recommended crops for the intended use
•
documentation of rainfall amounts normally received in the county during the growing
season for each crop
•
irrigation requirements, if any
•
established final planting date for each crop for the intended use according to:
•*--RMA for insured crops
• NAP for non-insurable crops--*
•
COC-established normal harvest date for each crop for the intended use.
The normal harvest dates, if applicable, and final planting dates are established based on
normal growing single cropping conditions.
Notes: See 1-ARCPLC, for the definition of double-cropping FAV’s or wild rice with
covered commodities or peanuts.
The inclusion of a county on the list in 7 CFR 1412 does not mean that every
double-cropping combination in that county is automatically approved. Counties on
the list in 7 CFR 1412 are listed only for the purpose of using the double-cropped
FAV exception. See 1-ARCPLC, paragraph 290.
STC has authority to establish double-cropping crops without COC input.

Par. 40
C COC Action
COC will submit any changes or additions in double-cropping practices to STC for approval.
•
If double-cropping recommendations are based on both crops reaching maturity, then all
other intended uses are automatically included in the recommendation. No further action
is required.
Example: A fall planted small grain intended for grain (GR) followed by spring planted
peas intended for fresh (FH) is considered an acceptable double-cropping
practice. All other double-cropping practices for small grain followed by peas,
such as small grains intended for green manure(GM) followed by peas
intended for fresh (FH), will automatically be considered acceptable with no
further action.
•
If double-cropping recommendations for both crops were not based on the crops reaching
maturity, then each intended use for the recommended double-cropping practice must be
listed separately for consideration by STC.
Example: A fall planted small grain intended for grain (GR) followed by spring planted
peas intended for fresh (FH) is not an acceptable double-cropping practice. In
such cases, COC must list each recommended double-cropping practice
separately by intended use for consideration, such as fall planted small grain
intended for green manure (GM) followed by spring planted peas intended for
fresh (FH), fall planted small grain intended for grazing (GZ) followed by
spring planted peas intended for fresh (FH).
D STC Action
STC will review and approve or disapprove COC-recommended changes or additions to
specific combinations of crops based on the data submitted by COC.
STC must not approve any of the following:
•
any specific combination of crops that were disapproved as a multiple-cropping practice
under a particular program without first obtaining concurrence of DAFP
•
a combination comprised of plantings of the same crop
•
any specific combination of crops if both crops cannot be planted and carried to maturity
for the intended use, as applicable, on the same acreage within the same crop year under
normal growing conditions.
Note: A second planting of the same crop on the same acreage in the same crop year
shall be considered a repeat planting, not double-cropping.

E County Office Action
County Offices will:
•
annually publicize approved double-cropping combinations in the county by available
means
•
ensure approved double-cropping combinations are recorded on FSA-578, with applicable
status codes, according to Exhibit 11.
F Exception
There may be some cases where a producer has a verifiable record of double-cropping a
specific combination of crops that were either of the following:
•
•
not recommended by COC
not approved by STC.
At the request of the producer, these cases will be reviewed by STC on a case-by-case basis.
STC may approve the specific combination of crops for that particular producer only if the
following requirements are met:
•
producer provides verifiable and documentable proof that the specific crops have been
successfully planted and carried to maturity for the intended use on the same acreage in
the same crop year in at least 2 of the previous 4 crop years
•
for crops requiring irrigation, evidence must be provided to show that the specific DMLA
crops planted and carried to maturity for the intended use were irrigated.
This exception does not apply nor will STC approve any combination of crops for a specific
producer if any of the following are met:
•
3-8-23
1 or both of the crops:
•
involved in the sequence were prevented from being planted or failed
•
require irrigation and no verifiable evidence of irrigation is provided
•
involved in the sequence were not carried to maturity for the intended use, as
applicable.

Par. 41
Under and Over Reported Official Acreage
A Agency Reported Acreage
RMA and FSA both have a business need to know the location of the crop being reported and
the actual planted acreage of a field. RMA’s business need and associated rules for an
accurate and precise report of planted acreage do not require the acreage reported for a
specific field to exactly match the acreage within a delineated CLU field boundary. A
producer under or over reporting the FSA official acreage on an acreage report submitted to
RMA would not inherently impact RMA’s internal business processes or the producer’s
insurance coverage.
For FSA purposes, the CLU acreage is the “official” acreage for which program eligibility
and benefits are calculated. When an acreage report submitted to either agency has planted
acreage that is over or under the CLU acreage, FSA has a business need to know the
reason(s) for the difference.
Producers are required to accurately report acreage. The acreage must be reported using the
data source deemed most accurate by the producer and could be based on CLU (official
acreage), precision equipment, measurement service, or other sources such as GPS data.
Review Exhibit 7 for the workflow of actions the producer should take when reported
acreage is under or over the CLU acreage.

Hemp Acreage Reporting
A Authority
According to 7 CFR Part 990.7 licensed growers of hemp are required to report the acreage
and license number to FSA using CARS beginning with the 2020 crop year. AMS is
required to provide law enforcement with information about who is growing hemp and where
it is grown. The data collected by FSA is used to verify this information with law
enforcement.
Note: FSA staff should refrain from sharing producer information with law enforcement.
Requests for information from law enforcement officials should be directed to AMS
Hemp Production staff via email at [email protected] or by telephone at
*--888-721-HEMP.--*
Insurance Eligibility – A hemp producer must have at least one year of history of planting
hemp to be eligible for crop insurance. Producers might need to report hemp acreage planted
before 2020 to meet this requirement.
B Intended Uses
The following intended uses and descriptions are available for hemp.

Intended Use Description
CBD - grown for extraction of plant resin, which includes CBD and other
phytocannabinoids.
Fiber - used for cloth, pressed plastics, ropes, animal bedding, paper, biofuel,
packaging, concrete additives, and spill cleanup.
Grain - used for hemp hearts, crushed seed oil (not CBD), and protein
supplements (human or animal consumption).
Seed - used for propagation stock and hybrids (non-human consumption).
Sets – intended to harvest the plant, midway through its growing cycle, to
sell for replanting or propagation purposes.--*

C Continually Planted Hemp
*--Continually planted hemp that is grown year-round must be reported within 30 calendar days
from the date of each new planting.
Example: The producer has multiple buildings in which clippings are planted and grown
indoors for 75 days. The first planting is January 1, 2020. This planting is
reported as status code “I” since it is the initial planting. Once harvested, new
clippings are replanted in the same lots. This is continually planted hemp and the
new planting is reported as status code “R” for repeat planting. The process is
repeated throughout the year.--*
Note: If FSA accepts the acreage report for the size of the building, that would provide the
hemp location for AMS and/or DEA purposes.
D Required Producer Hemp License
Producers are required to provide a hemp license number for a certified hemp acreage
*--report. The license number should be entered into CARS for each subfield and match the
format exactly as it appears on the license certificate (including underscores, capitalization,
leading zeros, etc).
The name on the hemp license must match the name on the acreage report, however if a
producer reports hemp acreage on FSA-578 using a name that does not match the name on
the hemp license, County Offices should verify relationship between landowner and
licensee before accepting the acreage report.
When 2 or more licensees share ownership of 1 parcel of land, they must be registered
separately depending on the amount of land under cultivation by the individual licensees.
Verify the license number on the acreage report is matched to the proper licensee.
Notes: The producer must explain and document on FSA-578 why the hemp license name
does not match the acreage report name.
County Offices can use the HeMP Public Search Tool (usda.gov) to locate or verify a
producer’s license number.--*

E Hemp License Format
Capturing the exact license number format is crucial to ensuring proper reporting as the
license number is the main component used to match growing locations to sampling, testing,
reporting and compliance. The following link describes the required license number format
for USDA-approved State and Tribal hemp production plans:
https://www.ams.usda.gov/sites/default/files/media/StateandTribalPlanRequirements.pdf.
In summary, license numbers will use the following formats:
•
under State-approved hemp programs, (ANSI/FIPS State Code_State License #)
•
under Tribal-approved hemp programs, (BIA Tribal Code_Tribal License #)
•
under direct USDA regulation, (USDA_ANSI/FIPS Code OR BIA Tribal Code_USDA
License Number).
*--Note: For questions concerning the license number format provided by a producer, the user
can access the HeMP Public Search Tool (usda.gov) to verify the license number
format.--*
F Lots Versus Fields
License holders must designate the location and number of lots intended to be planted. For
FSA purposes, the term “lots” refers to the specific subfield located within the field on the
tract. The lot concept provides flexibilities to growers to manage risk; therefore, lots may be
subsections of a field, without physical boundary, as is required for other crops. Growers
must report each variety or strain as a separate “lot”.

whether it is in the same variety or not. A new subfield should only be created if the
location or size of the planting has changed.--*
Example: Producer has 2 varieties of hemp planted in the same field in an alternating
pattern of 6 lots. Producer will report 6 subfields of hemp as follows:

H Research Lots
*--Hemp may be approved to be grown for research purposes only. Because the crop will never
be sold commercially, the acreage report is not required to be broken down by lots. If the
field was planted over several days, growers will report the average planting date.
Producers licensed directly with USDA who perform research will have an “R” in their
license number as an indicator. For example, USDA_XX_R0001. States and tribes may also
issue license number formats which uniquely identify approved research entities.--*
Example: Producer is growing hemp for a university and has planted 6 lots with 6
different varieties. The lots were planted on June 1, 12, 18, and 29. The
planting date of June 15 was entered into CARS as the average planting date.

Creating Crop Default Records
Establishing Crop Characteristics
A Introduction
*--CVS is the official database that maintains crop characteristics and serves as a central
commodity lookup table for use by CARS, NCT, and other program software applications.
Exhibit 10 contains select data fields from CVS; that is, all the valid current year’s crops,
types, intended uses, and FAV status (land use code).
MIDAS CRM-Product Master is a copy of 2013 CVS data and subsequent years’ and a
database of requested new (crop) products.
Example: Lettuce, Bibb or Corn, Yellow are both products within Product Master. Through
Product Master, FSA employees can view the full details about any product
within CRM/Product Master/Search Products. Users will refer to the Product
Master work instructions for additional instructions on searching for and
reviewing products.
B MIDAS CRM-Product Master Course Requirements
The following AgLearn courses are minimum requirements for accessing and using
CRM-Product Master:
FN100 Introduction to MIDAS
FN200 Basic Navigation of MIDAS CRM
FN220 Managing the MIDAS Universal Worklist
CT300 Product Master Overview
CT310 Product Master - New Product Request.
C Requesting Additional Crops, Types, and/or Intended Uses Through CRM-Product
Master
Occasionally, a producer will come into the County Office and report his or her acreage on a
crop that is not yet in the FSA system. CRM-Product Master is the system for initiating a
new product (crop) request.
If a producer reports a crop, type, or intended use that is not currently available in Exhibit 10,
CVS Reports, or Product Master, the County Office will use the “New Product Request”
function in CRM-Product Master to request the addition. The automated New Product
Request process will be initiated by the County Office, in most cases. See Exhibit 12 for
instructions.--*

Responsibilities of Requesting Additional Crops, Types, and/or Intended Uses
A County Office Responsibilities
County Offices are responsible for:
performing a thorough review and analysis of all available data for the crop and its
characteristics before submitting the request
searching CRM-Product Master for pending/existing requests to avoid duplicate requests
providing sufficient information in the request to justify the addition of the crop, type, or
intended use
attaching supportive documentation (for example, acres, prices, and yields specific to
their region) to justify the new product request
specifying the request is for acreage reporting, NAP crop eligibility, or both.
Note: Ensure that the request is handled according to 1-NAP.--*

B State Office Responsibilities
State Offices are responsible for:
ensuring that the information submitted by the County Office is thorough and complete
before approving the new product request
searching CRM-Product Master for pending/existing requests to avoid duplicate requests
completing additional research of requested products as needed
ensuring that all requests are handled according to 1-NAP
communicating to County Offices of the new product request approval or disapproval
status.
C National Office Responsibilities
National Office responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
reviewing all requested new product request information
completing additional research of requested products
compiling recommendation documents for each requested product
coordinating with other agencies
updating all applicable systems and tables
updating all applicable handbooks
providing notification of system/crop data changes.
Once the National Office reviews the new product request, an e-mail will be sent to all
parties involved in the new product request (State and County Offices), notifying them of
National Office approval or rejection.
D Supplementing an Existing/Pending New Product Request
As new products are added to CVS and Exhibit 10, they are available for nationwide use in
FSA transactions, and not limited for use by only the State or County Office that requested
the new product. State or County Offices may add regional supporting documentation to an
existing new product request. Field Offices are encouraged to review pending new product
requests before submitting a new request. See Exhibit 12 for instructions.--*

*--59 CVS Reports
A Overview
CVS reports provide the means to view CVS data for a specific year. Reports are
year-specific and are available from the current year to 1997.
There are 4 types of reports (or tables) available from the CVS report menu:
Crop/Type/Intended Use Report
Crop/Type Report
Crop Report
Crop/Type/Status Report.
B Purpose
The reports should be used as a reference for:
new crop (product) requests
current or historical crop table information.
C Accessing CVS Reports
All FSA employees with Level 2 E-Authentication automatically have read-only access to
the CVS reports. CVS tables are available for download in the CVS or Excel file format.
Since the reports are static data reports, there is no requirement to retain the downloaded
files.
Note: For detailed instructions, see Exhibit 12.5.

•
the farm operator certifies that no harvested production of the crop has been or will be
received
•
by the final reporting date, the farm operator reports the acreage to be excluded and
identifies the acreage on a photocopy.
Note: In CRM/Product Master, the “Experimental” status is captured independently of the
crop status codes. This will enable producers to report crops that are experimental,
along with any other applicable crop status.
E Using Crop Status Code “F”, “P”, or “V”
Use crop status code:
•
“F” in the second character field when the crop meets the definition of failed according to
paragraph 38
•
“P” in the second character field when the crop meets the definition of prevented planted
according to paragraph 37
•
“V” in the second character field when the crop is volunteer.
Note: In CRM/Product Master, the “Volunteer” status is captured independently of the
failed and prevented planting status codes. This will enable producers to report crops
that are volunteered and failed.
*--F Crop Status Code “M”
The crop status code “M” in the third character is populated according to subparagraph
162.5 F for any of the following methods that are considered concurrent:
•
•
•
•
interplanted
alternate
stacked
multi-use (used to identify small gains that have multiple intended uses).
Notes: If any of these options are selected in CARS according to subparagraph 162.5 F, the

Seaweeds are a large algae (macroalgae) that grow in a salt water or marine environment.
Seaweeds are plants, although they lack true stems, roots, and leaves. However, they possess
a blade that is leaflike, a stipe that is stem-like, and a holdfast that resembles a root.
Seaweeds are divided into 3 groups according to their color and habitat.

Intended Use Codes
A Determining Proper Codes
Intended use codes can affect program eligibility for various programs, including, but not
limited to NAP, marketing assistance loans, CRP, ARC, PLC, etc.
Follow subparagraph B for CRP.
Note: The intended use code “CO” (Cover Only) must only be used to report cover crops
according to paragraph 32. Intended use code “GM” (green manure) and “LS” (left
standing) should no longer be used to report cover crops.
Follow Exhibits 10 and 11 to determine proper status and intended use codes for a current
year’s crop.
Warning: Selection of the correct variety and type code for crops is crucial to identify
intended use for correct program benefits. If the specific intended use is not
listed, use the New Product Request in CRM to request additional crops
intended uses according to paragraph 57.
Actual use is not captured in CARS. If an actual use is reported by the producer,
the actual use shall be notated on the hardcopy FSA-578 and initialed by the
producer.

Intended Use Codes (Continued)
C Intended Use Code GS
For crop year 2018 and prior years, County Offices were instructed to report small grain crops
planted that have multi-uses with an intended use code GS to represent grazing and grain.
Beginning with the 2019 crop year, the intended use code GS will not be available in CARS.
Crops that have multi-uses will be reported as two separate line items on FSA-578 according
to paragraph 84.

Entering “M”, “O”, and “S” Codes
A Measured Farms Eligible for Spot Check
All crops and land uses are subject to spot check and will not be by-passed because of the
following codes:
“M” flag was entered for every field of a crop or land use
combination of “M” and “O” flags were entered for every field of a crop or land use.
B Critical Entries on Load, Revise, or Determined Screens
If the flag was entered on the:
load or revise screen, reported acreage for the field will be subtracted before tolerance is
calculated
determined screen, determined acreage for the field will be subtracted before tolerance is
calculated.
C “O” Flag Entries
An entry of “O” is not mandatory in the load process when a crop did not have total
measurement after planting.
If an “O” was entered in the load process, remove “O” in the revise process, unless COC
believes that the producer had reason to know that the actual acreage differed from the
official acreage.
D “S” Flag Entries
An entry of “S” indicates that the field had staking and referencing. This code may be
entered either in load process or in the revise or determined process according to the table in
subparagraph E.

Entering Dates
A Planting Date
The planting date is a required entry. For each field, enter the actual planting date of the
crop. If the crop was planted over several days, enter the average planting date.
*--Notes: For crops that do not require a planting date, see subparagraph F.
The planting date entered for trees is the actual set out date for the seedling.--*
B Reason End Year Date Is Important
The end year date must be greater than the present FSA-578 crop year to have fields,
including CRP, rolled over to the next crop year.
Examples:End year date of “2003” was entered for a field in a previous year’s FSA-578
process. The field will then be rolled over to the current year’s FSA-578. It will
not be rolled over to the 2004 FSA-578.
End year date was not entered for a field in a previous year’s FSA-578 process.
The field will not be rolled over to the current year FSA-578.
C CRP and End Year Dates
County Offices must enter the appropriate end year date, from CRP-1, in all new CRP fields
for the current year. Failure to enter the date will mean that the field will not be rolled over
to future FSA-578’s.
D Other Crops and End Year Dates
Enter an end year date for a field only if that crop will maintain the exact same crop
characteristics next year. This includes the same crop status, intended use, and type.
Example: A perennial crop that is entered with an end year date will prevent the producer
from having to report the crop every year. The end year date will allow the crop
to roll over each year.

Example: Producer has CRP-1 that expires in 2017.
Note: Enter the year CRP-1 expires for CRP practices that have easements. Do not enter
the year the easement expires.
End year date must be removed before deleting FSA-578 for purpose of processing a
reconstitution.

Recording Shares
A Recording Shares on FSA-578
FSA requires all shareholders of a crop, on a field by field basis, to be reported along with
their applicable share of the crop.
Shares submitted as a fraction, 1/4 for example, must be converted to a 4 decimal number
(0.2500) using normal rounding rules.
Note: A field that only has one person, or legal entity sharing in the reported crop acreage is
recorded as 1.0000. The recorded share must always have 4 decimals, including
trailing zeroes if applicable. The total of all shares must equal 1.0000.
For example, if the share for producer A is 0.6667, the shares for the remaining producers
must not exceed 0.3333.

Data Loading FSA-578 Following a Reconstitution
A Effect of a Reconstitution on a Certified FSA-578
When a reconstitution is approved for a farm that has been certified, FSA-578:
is automatically deleted from CARS for the respective year
must be re-entered into CARS after completion of the reconstitution
for the resulting farm(s) must be recertified within 30 calendar days following completion
of the reconstitution.
Beginning with the 2019 crop year, when a farm has been reconstituted, FSA-578 will not
automatically be deleted in CARS. CARS will move crop/field data from the parent farm
and/or tract to the child farm and/or tract.
If the farm has been certified, the farm will remain certified after the crop data is moved to
the child farm and/or tract.
See paragraph 103.5 for additional action that may be required after a reconstitution in Farm
Records.
B Action Required After Completion of a Reconstitution on a Previously Certified Farm
Following completion of the reconstitution, FSA-578’s must be re-entered into CARS for the
resulting farm(s). Applicable information from the previous FSA-578’s for the parent farm(s)
may be used as the source document for re-entering the FSA-578 data for the child farm(s).
C Time Requirement for Reloading FSA-578
FSA-578 for the child farm(s) must be re-entered within 30 calendar days following
completion of the reconstitution.
Note: Any benefits for the parent farm(s) are no longer valid and the benefits for the child
farm(s) cannot be computed until FSA-578 is entered.

Data Loading FSA-578 Following a Reconstitution (Continued)
D Signature Requirements for the Reloaded FSA-578
The following table provides guidance for when FSA-578 must be signed after a
reconstitution.
IF…
only the farm and tract number changed as a
result of the reconstitution
anything other than the farm and tract
number changes, including total reported
acres of the crop on the parent farm, or share,
shareholder, crop, crop type, intended use,
etc.
THEN…
the original FSA-578 may be attached to the
resulting farm’s FSA-578 following data
load and no new signature(s) is required.
signatures are required on a new FSA-578’s
for the reconstituted farm.
For a new FSA-578 with changes, producers must sign and date FSA-578 by the later of:
30 days, or
the ARD for the crop.
Example 1:
Example 2:
10-24-19
Farm #1 has 100 acres of cropland. Farmer A reported that 50 acres of the
farm was sold to Farmer B and subsequently requested a reconstitution.
Farmer B was added to the farm as an OT before the reconstitution was
completed. Farmer A reported 50 acres of corn on farm 1, tract 1, field 1.
Farm B reported 50 acres of soybeans on farm 1, tract, field 2. Signatures on
each of the resulting 2 new farms FSA-578’s are not required since the only
information that changed was the farm and tract numbers. The original
FSA-578 shall be copied and attached to both resulting FSA-578’s.
Farm #5 has 100 acres of cropland. The owner of Farm #5, Farmer A,
certifies 100 acres of corn planted on two 50-acre fields (fields 1 and 2).
Farmer A later reports that field 2 was sold to Farmer B and requests a
reconstitution. Farm #5 is divided into Farm #1000 and Farm #1001.
Farmer A is now the owner of Farm #1000. A new signature is not required
on the resulting FSA-578 for Farm #1000. Farmer B, the new owner of
Farm #1001, would be required to sign FSA-578 for Farm #1001 since there is
a change to shareholder and shares.

Multi-Intended Use Crop
A Reporting Crops With Multiple Intended Uses
Beginning with the 2019 crop year, crops that meet the definition of multi-use crop will be
reported as 2 separate line items on FSA-578. Currently multi-use is limited to crops that are
first grazed and then harvested as grain. Although this option is limited to the following
crops, additional crops may be added later:
barley
oats
rye
triticale
wheat.
By allowing the intended uses to be reported separately, it also allows certain other
characteristics to be associated to the intended use. For, example, if there are two producers
sharing on a crop, each one can be associated with a different intended use.
Example: Farm #1000 has two producers and two intended uses. Producer A has
100 percent share in the grazing of the wheat and Producer B has 100 percent of
the grain.

Producer Shares
A Overview
From the Tract Selection Screen, the Report of Acreage Screen will be displayed that
provides users the ability to enter crop share for producers associated with tract/field. The
shares can be modified between the producers shown. After producer shares have been
entered, the recorded shares will be automatically set by default to the next reported tract or
field until changed by the user.
CARS is validating against producer information contained in Farm Records at the tract
level. The producers must be associated to the specific tract in Farm Records to receive a
share of the crop/field in CARS. If the producer is not associated to the tract in Farm
Records, the producer will not be available in CARS. To ensure that producers are available
on all tracts they are associated with in CARS, producers must be added to all tracts they
are associated with in Farm Records according to 10-CM.
*--If a producer with a share of the crop in CARS is deleted from the farm in Farm Records, the
producer name will be highlighted under the list of tract producers.--*

or when the certified cropland meets the tolerance according to subparagraph B.
At any point thereafter, the total cropland acres for the farm in Farm Records becomes more
than the total certified cropland acres for the farm in CARS or the total certified cropland
acres for the farm does not meet tolerance according to subparagraph B, the cropland
indicator will be automatically set to “N”.

B Cropland Comparison Tolerance
To account for minor acreage differences when setting the fully reported cropland indicator,
software will:
•
automatically calculate a tolerance between total cropland on the farm and reported
cropland
set the fully reported indicator accordingly.
If within the following tolerance, the fully reported indicator will be set to “Y”. The tolerance
is the larger of the following:
•
•
1 percent of the cropland
.5 acre.
The maximum tolerance is 10 acres.
The tolerance will not run until all reported crops are certified.
Important:
The tolerance will be calculated when setting the fully reported cropland
indicator only and will not run until all reported crops are certified. The fully
reported cropland indicator is set behind the scene.
The tolerance will not be calculated for cropland totals displayed in CARS,
status descriptions, status reports, the FSA-578, producer print, and/or operator
print.
C Cropland Comparison Override
If the farm has no cropland, CARS will provide an override process to set the fully reported
indicator automatically to “Y” nightly. No user intervention will be allowed.
Note: At any point thereafter, if the cropland acres on the farm are greater than zero, the fully
reported indicator will be set automatically to “N”.

Predominant Crops and Crop Characteristic Defaults
A Overview
User will have the capability to create predominant crops and crop characteristic defaults
specific to their county.
*--Beginning with the 2021 program year, users will be able to access and use crop defaults
created in their administrative county through Nationwide Customer Service. The user does
not have to use the crop defaults that were created in the actual county they are accessing in
Nationwide Customer Service.
Example: User County A created crop defaults for their administrative County A. User
County A accesses a farm in County B using Nationwide Customer Service. User
County A can use the crop defaults they created in County A to load data in
County B.
There are times when software updates made in the current program year could impact the
validity of crop defaults previously created. In such cases, an error message will be displayed
to the user. Users will need to manually update invalid data fields as needed.
Example: For 2021, software was updated to default the planting pattern ‘orchard’ when
applicable orchard crops are reported. The user will need to manually update crop
defaults in 2021 where the planting pattern is not ‘orchard’ as needed.
To allow crop defaults to rollover from the previous year to the next year, the user must
click the “Manage Crop Defaults” option on the left navigation menu. Only defaults that pass
validation will rollover to the next year. For informational purposes, the previous year’s
defaults with invalid crop characteristics will be displayed to the user. Users will need to
add/update the crop default list in the next program year as needed.
Note: See Exhibit 10 for a list of applicable CVS crops used for acreage reporting.

are saved at the farm level, by producer, crop, crop type and intended use
•
are available on the Continuous Certification Election Screen for the selected producer by
crop, crop type and intended use
*--cannot be made in the previous program year after the automatic rollover process is
completed on or about October 1. Crops can be added to FSA-578 in the previous
program year as needed.--*
Notes: Once a crop, crop type, and intended use is elected for continuous certification, all
certified fields of that crop, crop type, and intended use associated with the producer
will be automatically rolled to subsequent CARS program years as certified. See
subparagraph 217 C for automatic termination of continuous certification.
If an approved perennial crop is recorded with an end year, upon election of
continuous certification the end year will be removed.

•
not certified, the certification/signature date from the previous program year will
be rolled to the next program year
•
certified, the certification/signature date will not be changed, and the field will be
enrolled or covered for continuous certification.
•
If the field in the next program year is reported to a different crop, type, or intended
use, the crop will not be rolled to the next program year for continuous certification.
•
If a crop is added in the previous program year, and the crop in the previous program
year is enrolled for continuous certification, the crop will be automatically enrolled for
continuous certification in the next program year.
Continuous certification elections cannot be made in the previous program year after the
automatic rollover process is completed on or about October 1. Crops can be added in the
previous program year as needed.
End year crops will be included when rolling over farms with continuous certification crops.
The certification and signature date will not roll over for end-year crops.
Crop records that do not pass validation will not roll from the previous program year to the
next program year. See subparagraph C for automatic termination of continuous certification

Part 4 ACRSI
Section 1 Responsibilities, Guidelines, and Reporting Requirements
393
Overview
A Background
This part provides procedure for ACRSI data sharing of acreage reporting information
collected via the CARS application and reconciling acreage reporting data collected by
participating AIP’s and representing agents. This is in support of the 2014 Farm Bill, Section
1614(b)(1).
The vision of the USDA ACRSI is to have a common USDA framework for producer
commodity reporting in support of USDA programs. This common framework will enable
producers to report common data once. This capability will reduce producer burden by
eliminating the need for producers to report the same information multiple times and support
efficient data sharing within USDA for more accurate data collection.
B Data Sharing Services
Multiple data sharing services have been created to allow core common data to be shared with
FSA and participating AIP’s by RMA. Regardless of the reporting channel, data flows to and
is housed in the RMA Clearing House and made available to FSA and AIP’s in near real time.
FSA has created the following services.
The CARS Event and Transformation Service, which transforms CARS data into valid
transmission files and submits to the RMA Intake Service.
The ACRSI Pilot Services, which pulls data from the ACRSI Clearing House, runs CARS
validations and adds the data to a CARS ACRSI Work List for manual processing.
RMA has created the following services.
4-11-18
The RMA Intake Service, which processes the transmission files by validating the proper
file format is used, the State and County code combination is valid, and a farm number is
included in the file. If Intake Service validations fail, the entire transmission file is
rejected.
The ACRSI Common Validation Service, which validates data contained in the
transmission files passes core common data element requirements and associated business
rules, including ensuring all mandatory data elements are contained in the file.
The ACRSI Clearing House, which stores validated core common data from acreage
reports created by both channels.

In addition to the crop and data element validations and business rules, the following
restrictions will apply to shared data:
•
one or more of the shareholders reported must have a valid SSN or employee ID number
•
for FSA purposes * * *:
●*--one or more shareholders must have a valid Core Customer ID
•
•
at least one producer in the transmission file must be an operator, owner, or other
tenant on an active farm
crop insurance must be in force for the producer for the AIP to access shared data.--*
Note: The CARS Event and Transformation Service will filter out reported acreage data that
does not comply with all crop and data elements validations, business rules, and
restrictions before transmitting the data.
C Data Transmission Files
The CARS core common data elements for certified fields/subfields on farms are
automatically packaged approximately every 15 minutes into a single transmission file.
Multiple farms can be included in a single transmission file. In addition, a single AIP
transmission file can contain multiple farms.
Core common data element validations, including business rules validations, are run at the
farm level; therefore, partial transmission files may be transmitted to the ACRSI Clearing
House. Farms that pass the common validations will be transmitted to the Clearing House.
Farms that fail the common validations will be rejected and not transmitted to the Clearing
*--House. See paragraph 516 for information about the FSA ACRSI Inquiry Service which--*
provides status information for transmission files.

ACRSI CARS Updates for RMA
A Overview
As part of ACRSI, RMA and FSA agreed on common crops and core data elements that
would be included in the ACRSI data sharing acreage reports. Because of Agency differences
in data collection for acreage reports, each Agency agreed to collect additional information, as
necessary, for the ACRSI approved crops.
B CARS Screens Updated for RMA
To meet ACRSI needs, CARS was updated to include the “RMA Cropping Practice” on the
CARS Report of Acreage load screen. See Part 3 for CARS Report of Acreage load screens.
The RMA cropping practice is applicable to the crop for the specific field or subfield being
reported. RMA cropping practices are specifically defined by each crop policy including
applicable special provisions.
In addition, CARS has been updated to include the RMA Crop Reconciliation Screen. See
paragraph 341 for details about the RMA Crop Reconciliation Screen. This screen allows
users to update the ACRSI-approved crop with the applicable RMA variety/type and/or RMA
intended use, when necessary. If the variety/type grown by the producer is not available for
selection, select the closest available combination.

meets certain conditions
specified in the Special
Provisions. A crop may be
designated as FAC if it is

considered double cropping.
Soybeans following wheat can
be either FAC or NFAC
depending upon the stage of
growth the wheat reached.
Ultimately, definitions of
“FAC” and “NFAC” in the
Special Provisions can vary by
region. For example, a Special
Provisions statement including,
“a crop that follows a cover
crop that meets the criteria
outlined in the Insurance
Availability section of this
Special Provisions of Insurance,
is considered NFAC”, explains
that a crop following a cover
crop is considered NFAC.

CARS ACRSI Work List
A Overview
The CARS ACRSI Work List stores individual farm core common acreage reporting data
filed through an AIP. County Office users must take action to resolve data validation issues
before accessing the CARS acreage report for the farm.
Exact duplicate AIP data is removed by the automated system. In addition, the automated
system will remove any AIP data that has corresponding certified data in the CARS database.
The system will compare the state, county, farm, tract, and field number contained in the AIP
transmission file to CARS data and if the state, county, farm, tract, and field have an existing
certified line item in CARS, the AIP data will not be placed on the ACRSI Work List for
processing.
*--Note: The system will ignore the subfield letter when making the review. If there is any
certified line with field 1 regardless if there is a subfield designation or not and the
AIP sends in field 1 regardless if a subfield is included, it will not be added to the
worklist. This is to eliminate the need for county offices to review duplicate entries as
result of FSA using subfields A, B, C and the AIP using subfields X, Y, Z.--*
This part provides procedure for accessing the CARS ACRSI Work List, locating the
farm/tract/field status message(s), and instructions for correcting or deleting shared data
before importing to CARS.

A Overview
The ACRSI Staging Data Screen provides an overview of each field/subfield included in the
transmission file for the farm selected and associated errors, if applicable.
If the message “No errors detected” is displayed, the data has passed the basic CARS
validations. All other messages would indicate that data failed one or more of the basic
CARS validations. County Offices should review the data submitted by the AIP’s with the
producer before importing to CARS.
B Examples of “No Errors Detected”
Data may pass the basic CARS validations and still require processing before importing to
CARS. Processing includes reviewing the data submitted or resubmitted by the AIP with the
producer and updating or deleting, as necessary.
Examples of data that passes CARS validations but may need to be deleted or updated
include, but are not limited to, the following.
4-11-18
Crop type may be incorrect. Some AIP software does not allow the crop insurance agent
to select the type of wheat when submitting a report and the type may default to an
incorrect type.
Shares may be incorrect. The crop insurance policy may be sold with an operator
receiving 100 percent share, while the actual crop is shared with the operator receiving 50
percent and the owner receiving 50 percent.
Reported acreage may exceed the CLU acreage. The producer reports using precision
agriculture equipment and the calculated acreage for the field being reported exceeds the
boundaries of the CLU.

The difference between reported and total farmland is out of tolerance. The crop
insurance agent may have reported at the insurance unit level rather than the
field/subfield level, resulting in the reported acreage exceeding the farmland on the farm.
The initial status “I” can only be reported once for field number X. The AIP may have
reported subfields without including the subfield alpha-character. Crop Insurance
acreage reports do not require subfields be designated.
Field number is invalid. Field number must exist in Farm Records. The AIP may have
used an old map when completing the acreage report.
Invalid producer was assigned shares. The insured producer may not be in FSA’s records
using the same name and/or identification number.
ACRSI Comparison. The AIP may have submitted the same report multiple times with
minor changes made between reports.
CARS Comparison. The AIP may have resubmitted the acreage report initiated by FSA
with minor changes.
When potential ACRSI duplicates or potential CARS duplicates exist, the user must resolve
the duplicate before importing data to CARS. The user is provided a hyperlink to the
Comparison Screen which allows the user to view the potential duplicate data side-by-side

ACRSI Duplicate Comparison Screen
A Overview
When data is processed by the ACRSI Pilot Service it is compared to existing data in the ACRSI
Work List and CARS to determine whether a report has previously been filed for the farm, tract,
and field/subfield. If the data is an exact duplicate, it is deleted and not added to the staging
table. If the data is not an exact duplicate, it is added to the staging table and available for
process.
The ACRSI staging table error message will indicate that an ACRSI Duplicate exists when data
is already present on the staging table for the farm, tract, and field/subfield submitted. The error
message will indicate that a CARS Duplicate exists when uncertified data is already present in
the CARS database for the farm, tract, and field/subfield submitted.
There are two possible duplicate Comparison Screens.
ACRSI Comparison - allows the user to view AIP data submissions for the selected
field/subfield side-by-side before deleting the incorrect field/subfield.
CARS Comparison - allows the user to view AIP data submissions side-by-side with existing
uncertified CARS data for the selected field/subfield before deleting the incorrect
field/subfield.--*

547
Par. 547
Overview
A Background
GRA is part of ACRSI created to reduce producer burden in the acreage reporting process.
This new capability eliminates the need for producers to report the same information multiple
times and supports efficient geospatial data sharing within USDA for more accurate data
collection.
ACRSI common acreage reporting data collected by participating AIP’s and representing
agents is created in two file formats.
•
The first format, CART files contain FSA farm, tract, and fields to tabularly document
the planting location, in addition to the reported common crop data. RMA, through the
ACRSI Clearing House, shares CART data with FSA. County Offices use the CARS
ACRSI Work List to process the data and add to the FSA-578.
•
The second format, GART files are designed for AIP’s and third-party providers and do
not contain FSA farm, tract, and fields. The GART files contain planting boundary
geometries to document the planting location with the reported common crop data.
RMA, through the ACRSI Clearing House, will begin sharing GART data with FSA in
crop year 2023. The CARS geospatial map is not integrated with ACRSI; therefore, to
facilitate processing of these GART files, FSA has created GRA.
GRA allows County Office users to review planting boundaries submitted as part of a GART
file to determine the associated farm, tract, and field so the reported common crop data can
be included on FSA-578. GRA completes a spatial analysis of the GART files to determine
which farm(s) have CLU’s that intersect with the planting boundary geometries.--*
7-5-23
2-CP (Rev. 16) Amend. 26
Page 4-121
Par. 547
*--547 Overview (Continued)
A Background (Continued)
GRA provides the ability to:
•
search for potential farm matches
•
select the farm to be matched
•
validate the match between the planting boundary and the selected farm, tract, and
field(s)
•
assign planting boundary acres to matched fields
•
review basic reported common crop data, and update shareholders, if necessary.
In addition, GRA provides the ability to print a map of the matched planting boundary and
submit the common reported crop data to the ACRSI Work List in CARS to be added to
FSA-578.

A Search Results Table
The system will generate a list of potential farm matches for GART files submitted to FSA
through the ACRSI Clearing House based on the user’s search criteria. The search results are
displayed below the search functions. Search results contain the potential match State,
county, farm number, transmission ID, received date, and current GART status.
A backend system generated spatial query is run to determine which farms, tracts, and fields
intersect with the planting boundaries in the GART file. Multiple farms may intersect with
one or more of the planting boundaries contained within the GART file. A farm is
considered a potential match if any CLU within the farm meets the following criteria for
overlapping the planting boundary.
IF the CLU is…
under 50.00 acres
between 50.00 and 160.00 acres
over 160.00 acres
THEN consider a potential match if there is…
a 10 percent planting boundary overlap with CLU.
an overlap of at least 5.00 acres.
an overlap of at least 10.00 acres.
Some farms may not actually be a match but will be displayed in the search results because
of limitations in the spatial query. GART Status is the review status for the farm and GART
planting boundaries. The following statuses may be applicable:
7-5-23
•
New – new GART file submitted to FSA and no action taken
•
Matched – 1 or more planting boundaries within the GART file have been matched to an
FSA farm, tract, and field
•
Submitted – 1 or more planting boundaries within the GART file has been matched to an
FSA farm, tract, and field and the reported crop information has been submitted to the
CARS ACRSI Work List. Partially submitted files will appear as submitted.--*

Section 1

General Information
Overview
A Background
The Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 authorized the development of CIMS
to support programs administered by RMA and FSA.
*--Producers provided both RMA and FSA the same basic information to participate in the crop
insurance program and farm programs. CIMS will allow both agencies to use a single source
for obtaining some of this common information.
CIMS maintains data in a centralized database. RMA and FSA sources update data on the
CIMS system on a weekly basis. The data is based on processed RMA and FSA data from
the previous week.
B Crop Translations
RMA and FSA have independently developed their own individual set of codes related to a
producer’s cropping activities. These differences in many cases prevent a simple
one-to-one match between RMA and FSA data. Three translation levels have been
developed to make valid comparisons between existing RMA and FSA crop data. Not all
agency crop codes can be addressed by this translation process.
RMA data is only for crops that have been insured through the crop insurance program as
reported by AIP.
FSA data is for crops that have been loading in CARS.
C Acreage Translations
RMA acreage is net acres, which are reported acres adjusted by the insured’s share.
FSA acreage is acres loaded in CARS as reported by the producer.--*

*--D CIMS Crop Analysis Levels
Level 1 – CIMS Crop Category
Groupings of crops with common names to allow users to request information for a crop that
is identified by 1 or more agency attributes, such as crop code, type, etc.
The CIMS crop categorization table also identifies RMA and FSA crops as 1 of the following:
•
Insurable – the crop is insurable under an RMA insurance program
•
Uninsured – an insurable crop that has been reported to RMA as zero or uninsured
acreage (that is, planted after late planting period, unrated land)
•
Non-insurable – a combination of FSA crop, type, irrigated practice, and/or intended use
codes not covered by an RMA policy.
Level 2 – CIMS Crop Subcategory
Subcategory is a further breakdown of Level 1 crops, where applicable, that allows the user to
request information at a more detailed level than the crop category (that is, popcorn). It is
based on intended use and/or terms of insurance.
Levels 3 and 4 – CIMS Crop Comparison
Crop comparison is used by CIMS to identify and report possible differences between RMA
and FSA data where business rules are similar.
E Security Roles
National, State, and County Office employees with Level II eAuthentication will be able to
view data for specific CIMS reports.
Note: If the report name is not displayed in the CIMS Menu, the report is not available for
access for the user role.--*
F Reporting Problems

A Introduction
Calculate acreage using either or both of the following methods:
ground compliance
office compliance.
B Ground Compliance
Ground compliance is done by going to the field and measuring the
acreage using tapes, measuring wheels, GPS, and other equipment that can determine the
acreage.
C Aerial Compliance
Office compliance is done in the County Office by using digital imagery.

Standard and Authorized Deductions
A Deductions
Acreage not devoted to a crop being measured must be deducted from the field’s gross
acreage. The acreage to be deducted can be measured by ground or aerial methods or
calculated by applying a standard deduction percentage to the gross acreage.
See paragraph 862 for strip-crop, skip-row, and sled-row patterns.
B Standard Deductions
Standard deduction is an acreage allowance determined for the turn area by applying a
percent of the area planted to the crop, instead of measuring the turn areas.
The standard deduction is 3 percent of the gross acreage of the field devoted to the crop
and must be approved by STC before using in any county.
Deviations from the standard must be reasonable and justifiable for the crop area
affected.
C Deductions by Measurement Service
The farm operator may request measurement service to measure deductions instead of
accepting the standard deduction.
The request must be made for the entire crop acreage before filing FSA-578.
Note: If the deduction is measured, the standard deduction will not be used for any of the
fields of the crop.

Note: If terraces, turn areas, sod waterways, noncropland,
ditches within a field, or subdivision boundaries are
contiguous, they may be combined to meet the
minimum.
E Deviations From Standard and Authorized Deductions
If the normal cultural practices of a county, such as the width of turn areas or the size of
fields, are different than the minimums in subparagraph D, the following recommendations
may be submitted to DAFP:
an increase in the minimum row width
an increase in the minimum area.

Applying Deductions
A Rule for Standard Deductions
If the standard deduction is applied to a field, the standard deduction must be applied to all
compliance determinations made for that field including:
staking and referencing
measurement after planting
acreage adjustments
GIS-calculated acreage.
B Example of Standard Deduction in a Field
Following is an example of a standard deduction in a field.
Turn areas are in the north and south ends of a field. County Office determined 3 percent for
average turn areas. 3 percent applies to total acreage for both ends of the field.
30.0 acres x 3 percent = .9 deduction
30.0 - .9 deduction = 29.1 acres remaining after applying deduction
C Rule for Authorized Deductions
If the authorized deduction is applied to a field, any area inside a cropped acre that is not
devoted to the crop shall be deducted from the field. Following are examples of required
deductions:

sod waterways
rocks and boulders
barns and buildings

Solid Plant, Strip-Crop, Skip-Row, and Sled-Row Patterns
A Introduction
[7CFR.107] Methods of determining acreage differ with planting patterns. This paragraph
discusses methods of determining acreage for the cultural practice of alternating strips of
rows of the crop area with strips of idle land or another crop and solid plant when row width
exceeds 40 inches. For these planting patterns the net acreage for all crops should be
reported on FSA-578.
B Definitions
See Exhibit 2 for definitions of the following planting patterns:
solid plant
strip-crop
skip-row
sled-row.
C Strip-Crop
When 1 crop is planted in strips, rows, or areas alternating with another crop, whether or not
both crops have the same growing season, only the acreage that is planted to each specific
crop will be considered to be acreage devoted to the specified crop.
D Additional Single-Width Row Procedure
If single rows are planted in a skip-row pattern with 2 or more rows having less than 40-inch
spacing, consider the distance in inches devoted to the crop in the single rows the same as the
distance between 2 or more rows with less than a 40-inch spacing. See Exhibit 25,
subparagraph 2 G.
Note: Cotton planted in an alternating 30/50-inch row planting pattern may be considered a
solid planting pattern for both irrigated and nonirrigated rows, where the irrigated
acreage has 80-inch irrigation centers with a drip-tape or drop-hose system. This
provision assumes the 30/50-inch row planting pattern has a comparable number of
rows, plant population, and yield potential in a normal year as a 40-inch row solid
planting pattern.
E Exception Request to 40-Inch Width Rule for Single Rows
For this purpose, a normal row width is defined as row crops of 30 to 40 inches. STC’s may
request DAFP approval to deviate from this formula for crops that are normally grown in
widths more than 40 inches, for example, vine crops, tobacco more than 48 inches, etc. The
request must provide the formula and supporting information.

digitize the area.
Consider 40 inches devoted to the
crop for rows more than 40 inches
in width.
G Determining Crops With Row Width More Than 40 Inches
The maximum area for a row considered planted to a crop shall not exceed 40 inches wide.
Consider land between rows exceeding 40 inches as idle land.
Example: For a 46-inch row, consider 40 inches to be the crop and the remaining 6 inches is
considered a skip. See Exhibit 25, subparagraph 2 C.
Note: Cotton planted in an alternating 30/50-inch row planting pattern may be considered a
solid planting pattern for both irrigated and nonirrigated rows, where the irrigated
acreage has 80-inch irrigation centers with a drip-tape or drop-hose system. This
provision assumes the 30/50-inch row planting pattern has a comparable number of
rows, plant population, and yield potential in a normal year as a 40-inch row solid
planting pattern.

Action
Determine the crop row width by measuring the width of each row from plant stem
to plant stem. Multiply the number of crop rows in the pattern by the crop row
width. This is the area considered planted to the crop. Record in inches.
Note: For crop row widths exceeding 40 inches, the inches exceeding the 40
inches are a skip.
Determine the skip or sled width by measuring the distance from plant stem to
plant stem in the skip or sled row. Subtract ½ row width for each side the skip or
sled rows touch a crop row from the width of the sled row. The ½ row width is the
area considered planted to the crop and not part of the skip. Total the skips in the
pattern.
Determine the planting pattern by adding step 1 and step 2.
Determine the percentage of land devoted to the crop by dividing the total crop
inches from step 1 by the total inches in the planted pattern from step 3.
Determine the net crop acreage by multiplying the land devoted to planted acres
times the acreage crop percentage from step 4.

D Collection of Measurement Service Fees
*--Ordinary measurement service fees should be paid by the producer before FSA performs the
service. However, if FSA performs the service before full payment is received a debt will be
established for an unpaid measurement service fee. Further, if there are any unpaid amounts
due as the result of a late-file, the unpaid amount must be remitted to FSA by the deadline for
the late-file acreage report for the late-file acreage report to be valid.
Note: Late-file acreage reporting fees must be paid by the applicable deadline for late-file
acreage reports; measurement service fees may be established as a debt offset.--*
At a minimum, the estimated cost must include the basic farm rate plus the hourly rate for the
first hour; plus estimated mileage cost if option 1 is selected.
Example 1:
If Option “2” was selected by STC, according to subparagraph A, the
estimated cost that a producer must pay before the service can be completed
would be the basic farm rate of $30, plus a minimum of $16 for the first hour
is selected.
Example 2:
If Option “1” was selected by STC, according to subparagraph A, the
estimated cost that a producer must pay before the service can be completed
would be the basic farm rate of $15, plus a minimum of $16 for the first hour,
plus estimated mileage charge.
*--The actual cost will be determined based on actual travel time; time required to complete the
service and actual travel mileage, if applicable. If the amount collected from the producer
before performing the service is:
less than the actual cost of performing the service, the County Office must notify the
producer of the additional amount due based on the actual cost
Note: A copy of the results of the measurement service will not be provided to the
producer until the additional amount is paid.
Exception:
1-22-20
If the difference in the amount paid in advance by the producer and the
actual cost is $9.99 or less, no additional funds are due.--*

E Examples of Rates Charged for Performing Measurement Service That Includes Farm
Visit
The following are examples of rates charged to perform measurement services.
Example 1:
Producer A requests bin measurement in County XYZ in State AB. State AB
uses option 1 as a statewide rate. Time to travel from County Office to farm,
document bin measurements, and return to County Office is 2 hours
40 minutes (rounded to 2 hours 30 minutes). Trip distance from County
Office to farm and back was 45 miles. Total cost to producer for this
measurement service is $15 (basic farm fee) + $40 ($16 for first hour plus $24
for three 30-minute increments) + $20.61 (45 miles x $.458) = $75.61.
Example 2:
Producer C requests after planting measurement service in County ZXY in
State AE. State AE has selected option 2 as their statewide rate. Producer C
has requested measurement service on 6 tobacco plots on 1 farm. Time to
travel from County Office to farm, complete acreage boundary
determinations, and return to County Office is 3 hours 25 minutes (rounded to
3 hours 30 minutes). Total cost to producer for this measurement service is
$30 (basic farm fee) + $56 ($16 for first hour plus $40 for five 30-minute
increments) = $86.
F Example of Rates Charged for Performing Measurement Service in the Office
The following is an example of rates charged to perform measurement service in the office:
Example: Producer B requests digitizing field boundaries on digital imagery for an acreage
measurement of 3 subfields. Time to process measurement service request, load
the image service of most current year, find the location within the tract boundary,
compute acreage using the CLU Tools, and provide results to producer is
65 minutes (rounded to 60 minutes). Total cost to producer for this service is
$15 (basic farm fee) + $16 (first 60 minutes) = $31.

Measurement Service After Planting
A Definition of Measurement Service After Planting
Measurement service after planting means determining a crop or designated acreage after
planting, but before the farm operator files a report of acreage for the crop.
Example: See subparagraph C for an example of FSA-409 for measurement service after
planting.
B Timely Requests
Requests for measurement service after planting may be filed no later than the final reporting
date for the crop or land use to be considered timely filed. Requests filed after the final
reporting date may be accepted if the producer pays the cost of the measurement service in
addition to the late-filed fee for reporting the acreage. This would result in the producer
paying twice the cost of the measurement service.
Note: Producers requesting measurement service after the final reporting date shall not be
allowed to adjust acreage to meet program requirements if previously spot-checked.

and plants exactly as directed by the County Office.
Note: Guarantee does not apply to compliance with the conservation plan required by
6-CP.
B Incorrect Measurement Service
If a producer takes action on an incorrect measurement service, COC will consider the farm
in compliance with acreage requirements for the current year, if that measurement service
was performed for the entire crop or allotment on the farm. This includes errors made in:
recording program or allotment requirements
measurement
field assistant’s judgment
placement of field or subdivision lines
planimetry or computation.
Note: Measurement service is not guaranteed if the producer did not take action based on
the measurement service.
C Dataloading Measurement Service Errors

Exhibit 2
Accurate Acreage Report
An accurate report of acreage is a producer’s acreage certification of the crop and land use
for the farm or farms, critical to program benefits.
Note: An inaccurate report is used to determine a discrepancy, not the potential advantage
to the producer.
Adequate Water Supply or Source
Adequate water supply or source means there will be a reasonable expectation of having
enough water physically and legally available to carry out good irrigation practices on the
entire acreage reported as irrigated for the entire growing season. If the producer knows or had
*--reason to know that the water supply or source absent an eligible cause of loss, would not--*
be adequate or their water rights would be limited or reduced to an extent that good irrigation
practices would not be possible or practicable for the entire growing season, then no reasonable
expectation of adequate water exists. It is the producer’s responsibility to demonstrate that
*--absent an eligible cause of loss as specified in paragraph 31, a reasonable expectation of--*
receiving adequate water to carry out good irrigation practices on the entire acreage reported as
irrigated for the entire growing season. Producer will be expected to be prepared to provide
documentation of the factors which were considered in reporting the acreage as irrigated.
Aerial Compliance
Aerial compliance is a method of determining acreage and updating aerial photography
using 35mm slides, digital images, and other approved equipment.
Aerial Photographs
Aerial photographs are rectified enlargements made from negatives by APFO. Aerial
photographs can be 24- by 24-inches or 17- by 17-inches. Because of the accuracy of the
enlarging method, all images on the prints are usable for measurements.

technicians, mounted on a plane table that can be leveled and rotated clockwise from north to south
to measure angles.
Alternate
Alternate is acreage on which multiple crop species are grown together, usually in 1 or more
rows each, in the same crop year. The crop species can grow together with 1 or some
completing its or their growth cycle before the other(s). The crops may be grown in a manner
that permits, but does not require, separate agronomic maintenance or harvest. This practice
does not meet the definitions for interplanted, double-cropping, repeat, or strip/skip cropping
practices.
Example 1:
4-11-18
A row of trees are alternated with a row of banana plants and a row of
coffee plants.
Example 2:
A row of lettuce may be alternated with a row of broccoli.
Example 3:
Several rows of sweet corn are alternated with several rows of potatoes and 1
row of English peas.

alternated with strips of idle land or another crop in a regular pattern.
Skip-Row Pattern
A skip-row pattern is a cultural practice of alternating strips of row crops with idle land.

Sled-Row Pattern
A sled-row pattern is a cultural practice of alternating strips of tobacco with idle land.
Originally, this idle land was used as a transportation lane for the sled that carried the
harvested tobacco.
Note: Sled-row pattern could also apply to other crops, such as vine crops.
Slide
A slide is a photographic transparency measuring 35mm (1.377.95 inches) long and
23.3mm (0.90945 inches) wide and mounted in a 2- by 2-inch frame.
Solid Plant Pattern
A solid plant pattern is a cultural practice of uniform rows where the distance between row widths does
not exceed 40 inches.
Staking and Referencing
Staking and referencing is the determination of acreage before planting, designating, or adjusting
by:
planimetering or digitizing a delineated area on photography or computing the chains and
links from ground measurement
sketching the field or subdivision
placing markers on the ground and noting the position
guaranteeing the acreage which is later planted, designated, or adjusted within the staked
area
placing markers on the land to allow a producer to accurately plant, designate, or adjust
acreage.
Standard Deduction
Standard deduction is an acreage allowance determined for the turn area by applying a percent
of the area planted to the crop, instead of measuring the turn areas. COC deviations from the
standard must be reasonable and justifiable for the crop and area affected.

Strip-Crop Pattern
A strip-crop pattern is a cultural practice of alternating strips of crops and idle land or
other crops.
Subdivision
A subdivision is a part of a field that is separated from the balance of the field by
temporary boundary, such as a cropline that could be easily moved or will likely
disappear.
Subsequent Crop
A subsequent crop is a crop planted after a different crop that is viewed as either an intial crop
or a repeat crop on the same field or subdivision within a crop year or a second crop that does
not meet double-cropping requirements.
Target
The target is the:
area on the ground
subject of the slide.
Temporary Boundary
A temporary boundary is an easily movable boundary generally recognizable,
including croplines and turn areas between fields.
Temporary, Fixed Point
A temporary, fixed point is a point that is easy to identify and easily movable. A stake
referenced to a permanent point or a permanent point on a permanent boundary is a fixed
point.
Tolerance
Tolerance is a prescribed amount within which the reported acreage and/or production of a
crop may differ from the determined acreage and/or production and still be considered in
compliance.

Definitions of Terms Used in This Handbook (Continued)
Turn Area
Turn area is the area perpendicular to the crop row that is necessary for turning
operating equipment. A turn area is also called turn row, headland, or end row.
Verifying
Verifying is any method used to determine the accuracy of the amount of and identification
of reported acreage and land use and compliance with program requirements.
Volunteer Crop
A volunteer crop is a crop that was planted in a previous crop year on the applicable acreage
or drifted from other acreage, successfully self-seeded, and is growing this crop year on the
applicable acreage without being intentionally sown or managed.
Zero Acreage
Zero acreage is when no crop acreage was planted on the farm for the year.

2003 and Subsequent Year Crops Reported on FSA-578
The following lists the crop names, crop codes, abbreviations, intended uses, and land uses for crops
and commodities reported on FSA-578.
Notes: Except for sorghum, crops historically reported with intended uses of “Silage” (SG),
“Haying” (HY), “Green Chop” (GC), or “Haylage” (HG) shall now be reported with an
intended use of “FG”.
Hybrid seed shall be reported as the intended use of “Seed” (SD) associated to the applicable
crop.
***
In SAP/CRM, crop and type combinations will be represented as a single “product”.
Example: Apple, Common and Apple, Specialty are 2 different products found within
Product Master. Also, the FSA crop and type codes will be included in Product
Master as “CVS crop and type”, such as “0054-COM” and “0054-SPC”.
Note: For 2017 and subsequent years, the “cover only” (CO) intended use was replaced
with “cover crop”.

Crop Characteristic Codes
A Background
Crop characteristic codes are maintained and displayed in CRM/Product Master and in CVS. The codes
are maintained in CVS as first, second, and third character field status codes. In CRM/Product Master,
the codes are maintained as crop status codes, planting status codes (displayed as supplemental status
codes in CARS), experimental status codes, volunteer status codes, and concurrent planting status
codes.
B Crop Status Codes
Crop status codes can be viewed in CRM/Product Master.
Note: In SAP/CRM, the “Experimental” status code “X” is captured independently of the other crop
status codes, but is still captured in the “crop status” data field in CARS.
Notes: See 1-ARCPLC for crops considered covered commodities.
See paragraph 25 for the definition of an approved double cropping combination.
Covered commodity, as described in the crop status code, is not synonymous with cover crop,
as described in paragraph 32.

*--Instructions for Creating New Product Requests
A Background
County Office users will use the CRM “New Product Request” process to make requests for new
products (crop and type) and/or intended uses. Once completed by the County Office, the State
Office must then review the request and attach additional information, as necessary. Following
the State Office review, the National Office will review the request and will either approve or
deny.
The status of the new product request can be viewed at any time in CRM. In addition to the
requesting County Office, all FSA employees can view all pending and completed new product
requests and the current status of each request. Requests for new product additions will not be
considered unless all required information is included. Once approved, the new product will be
available for FSA transactions for all counties, and not only in the county that submitted the
request.
B Requirements
The following AgLearn courses are minimum requirements for accessing and using
CRM-Product Master:

Step

Instructions
Perform a search for a matching crop product name. Select “Search Requested Products” from
the menu.
Notes: To avoid duplication, be aware that the regional crop name may be a synonym for an
existing product. For example, the Black-Eyed Susan (Rudbeckia Hirta) is also known
as Brown Betty, Brown Daisy, Poorland Daisy, etc.
3
To ensure that a new product is being requested instead of a duplicate, perform an
Internet search on the product and check with local Ag Extension services and
universities.
Compile supporting documentation for the new product request.
Note: The supporting documentation should, at a minimum, specify the following:
crop or type is not currently listed in Product Master under another name or
synonym
differences between the new product being requested and the existing products in
Product Master or in CVS Reports
differences in the characteristics of the product being requested, such as prices and
yields
number of producers attempting to report the new product and number of reporting
acres for each producer.
Attach supporting documentation; including acres, yields, prices, and authoritative source
information about the product; to the request.
Note: If another State or county has already requested the same product and the request is
already in review, a County Office may include additional notes and supporting
documentation from their county to the pending request.
Example:
5-8-19
A producer in State A-County A has reported acreage on “Cinderella Pumpkins”
and the County Office has determined that this is a unique product that is not
currently listed in Product Master or available for acreage reporting. Before
submitting a new product request, the PT in State A-County A performs a search
and reviews the existing requested products in CRM. The PT finds a pending new
product request for “Cinderella Pumpkins” that was submitted 3 workdays before
in State B-County B. Rather than submit a second request for the same product,
the PT from State A-County A adds additional notes and supporting
documentation to the existing request.

verify that the name of the County Office employee completing the request is loaded.
5
E-mail or call the State Office notifying them of the new request pending State Office
review.
Note: The new product request is not a workflow transaction and will not
automatically be sent to another FSA employee to take action. An e-mail or
telephone call is required to notify the next level to review the request.
Once a new product request has been submitted, it cannot be deleted (but it may be
withdrawn).

Note: State Offices must ensure that additional supporting documentation to the
existing request is complete; such as acres and/or yields specific to their region.
Edit the “Partner Functions” transaction block, select “State Action Completed by”, and
load the name of the reviewing State Office employee.
Edit the Interaction Log Details and change the status code to “State Approved” or
“State Rejected”. If the request is:
rejected by the State Office, e-mail the requesting County Office to notify them of
the decision
approved by the State Office, send it to the National Office for review by e-mail to
[email protected].
