Acreage Report Date and Acreage Report Worksheets

Final Acreage Reports for Spring Crops are due by July 15. The best way to turn in acres is provide us the FSA Certification Form 578 with maps or use the Acreage Report Worksheets available in our office. The worksheet matches Farm Serial Number and Unit to previously planted APH databases. Please use the form to:

1.       Report acres & plant date

2.       Verify all farms (including new) are included and reported,

3.       Verify an Irrigated (02) or Non-irrigated (03) practice, if necessary write in practice

4.       Indicate all shareholders with share

Most producers using this form, save time and benefit from fewer mistakes. Please return on completion so we may fill in landlords Acreage Reports, then you can verify & sign prior to deadline.

Important 2005 Notice – Please revise Acreage Report if an original report was submitted for Cotton Loss Acres. All acres –Insured or Not Insured, 2^nd Crop or Ghost Acres – must be reported by final reporting date.

Plant Dates & Late Planting

Final Planting Dates for Cotton are (see late planting options below):

            June 5 for Floyd, Hale, Crosby, & Lubbock Counties

            May 31 for Swisher & Briscoe Counties

Final Planting Dates for Grain Sorghum are (see late planting options below):

            June 30 for Floyd, Hale, Crosby, Lubbock , &  Swisher Counties

Please contact our office for other crops.

Cotton has a 15 day late planting period.  Coverage is reduced by 1% for each day past the final plant date listed above. After the late planting period you may still plant and have a choice to:

1.       Insure the Crop at the Prevented Planting Level (60% of Coverage) or

2.       Choose not to insure.

Acres not insured still must be reported so production does not count against other insured acres. Uninsurable crops must be included on Acreage Report. Production from non insured acres can not be credited to APH databases.

If you plant after the late planting period, we need a revised acreage report.

Irrigation and Notes

It is very important too properly report Irrigated & Non Irrigated Acres. Irrigated practice losses due to lack of irrigation, heat, drought, etc. will not be paid. Practice may not be revised after Acreage Reporting Date.

Non Irrigated Spring Crops are Non Insurable behind Fall Crops that are Grazed, Hayed, or Harvested, unless Fall Crop is mechanically or chemically terminated by March 15^th.
