                To prohibit the duplication of benefits.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled, That the 1994 disaster 
assistance provision as contained in the Agriculture Rural Development, 
Food and Drug Administration, and Related Agencies Act, 1995, is 
amended by adding at the end the following new paragraph:
    ``(10) Limitation on Disaster Payments.--The Secretary shall adjust 
the amount of disaster payments made to a producer for a crop of 
peanuts to ensure that the total amount of quota poundage for which 
such payments are made to the producer plus the amount of quota 
poundage produced and marketed by the producer does not exceed the 
effective poundage quota for the farm of the producer for that crop. 
Disaster payments to a producer on poundage quota in excess of the 
effective quota for the farm of the producer shall be made based on the 
additional poundage payment rate.''.

            Passed the Senate October 7 (legislative day, September 
      12), 1994.

            Attest:

                                                             Secretary.
