Although there were similar disaster programs under the 2008 Farm Bill, the authority for those programs has expired. The 2014 Farm Bill reauthorizes these programs and they are similar to the 2008 programs, however, there are distinct changes in payment limits, eligible losses, and eligible causes of loss from prior programs. Eligible ELAP, LFP, LIP, and TAP losses must have occurred on or after October 1, 2011 to be eligible for payment. This rule specifies how ELAP, LFP, LIP, and TAP payments are calculated, what losses are eligible, and when producers may apply for payments. Additionally, this final rule implements changes required by the 2014 Farm Bill by amending the regulations that specify maximum income limits (payment eligibility) and maximum benefit amounts (payment limits) for participants in programs funded by the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) and some FSA programs. The intended effect of the eligibility requirements is to ensure that program payments and benefits are issued only to those persons and legal entities that meet the income eligibility requirements as specified in the 2014 Farm Bill, and that program participants do not receive any program payments above the maximum allowable payment amount. The payment limits and average Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) limits in this final rule apply to 2014 and subsequent crop, program, or fiscal year benefits, and to benefits for programs that were authorized by the 2014 Farm Bill for retroactive 2012 or 2013 crop, program, or fiscal year benefits. 79 FR 21086 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/FR-2014-04-14/2014-08067 2014-08067 fr14ap14-23 RIN 0560-AI21 3410-05-P https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/FR-2014-04-14/2014-08067 https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2014-04-14/html/2014-08067.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2014-04-14/pdf/2014-08067.pdf Agriculture Loan Programs-Agriculture Conservation Price Support Programs Dairy Products Indemnity Payments Pesticide and Pests Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements 33 p. 21086 21118 79 FR 21086 Title 7 Part 1400 7 CFR Part 1400 Title 7 Part 1416 7 CFR Part 1416 RIN 0560-AI21 Supplemental Agricultural Disaster Assistance Programs, Payment Limitations, and Payment Eligibility; Federal Register Vol. 79, Issue RULE 2014-08067 VI DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE Commodity Credit Corporation 2014-04-14 3410-05-P 2014-08067 Final rule.
