Text
(a) Eligible acres under this subpart include 2025 crop year acres planted in the United States to an eligible commodity, excluding acreage reported as a cover crop, and acreage with an intended use of grazing, experimental, green manure, left standing, or volunteer. Producers must have reported the acres to FSA on FSA-578 by December 19, 2025, to be eligible for payment under this subpart.
(b) FBA Program payments will be based on timely reported acres. If reported acres have determined acres present, determined acres will be used.
(c) Planted acreage includes any land devoted to planted acres for accepted skip-row planting patterns, as determined by the Secretary. FSA will calculate FBA Program payments for skip-row acreage based on the total acres devoted to the eligible commodity without making reductions specified in 7 CFR 718.108 that are applicable to other FSA programs.
(d) In situations where a producer planted both an initial crop and a subsequent crop on the same acreage for the 2025 crop year, both the initial crop and the subsequent crop will be eligible for the FBA Program if they were eligible commodities.
