Deadlines to report 2012 crop acreage to the Farm Service Agency in nearing.
Reporting acreage is critical to maintaining eligibility for multiple program benefits, including Direct and Counter-cyclical Program, the Average Crop Revenue Election and Conservation Reserve Program. Acreage reporting also establishes a record of cropping history for possible future program applications.
June 30th is the final date to report small grains, including wheat and oats. All other crops must be reported by July 15th, including CRP acres.
Late filed reports may be subject to the assessment of fees, and must be verified by field visit, or other acceptable documentation.
Producers are also advised that for 2013 and future years, November 15th, 2012 will be the new deadline to report al fall-seeded grains and forage crops.
Producers should contact their local FSA county office for more information, or to make an appointment to certify 2012 acreage.
