NW Indiana | Keep in mind this part
"Must be 20 acres or 20% of unit, eligible acres would be the highest number of acres planted in the last 4 years. If eligibility rolls to another crop pay on the lower liability crop"
So lets take a 1000 acre farmer as in example. Lets say in 2016 you planted 800 acres of corn and the rest beans. That means this year you would be eligible to PP up to 800 acres of corn(although I believe you have to provide seed return receipts which we all know means nothing).
Lets say you added 200 acres this year. On that added acreage itself if you don't get it planted you would get 80% PP for corn and 20% PP for bean payment.
A question I haven't asked yet but been wondering is what if I am wanting to plant beans first or that field going to beans is ready am I obligated to be planting corn since the PP date is sooner? I guess I am thinking lets say there is only 5 days to plant before June 5th and it takes me 10 to plant my crop, am I wrong if I spend 2 of those 5 days planting beans? | |
