## Farm Service Agency

*Title:*                     Transfer of Farm Records Between Counties.                

*OMB Control Number:*                     0560-0253.                

*Summary of Collection:*                     The Farm Service Agency (FSA) programs are administered on the basis of “farm”. For program purposes, a farm is a collection of tracts of land that have the same owner and the same operator. Land with different owners may be considered to be a farm if all the land is operated by one person and additional criteria are met. A farm is typically administered in the FSA county office where the farm is physically located. A farm can be transferred from the physical location county office if the principal dwelling of the farm operator has changed, a change has occurred in the operation of the land, or there has been a change that would cause the receiving administrative county office to be more accessible. FSA-179, “Transfer of Farm Record between Counties,” is used as the request for a farm transfer from one county to another initiated by the producer.                

*Need and Use of the Information:*                     The information collected on the FSA-179 is collected only if a farm transfer is being requested and is collected in a face-to-face setting with county office personnel. The information is used by county office employees to document which farm is being transferred, what county it is being transferred to, and why it is being transferred. The FSA-179 assists county committees in determining why the farm transfer is being requested and that it is not being requested for the purpose of increased program benefits, avoiding payment reductions, establishing eligibility to transfer base acres, or for circumventing any other programs provision. Without the information county offices will be unable to determine whether the producer desires to transfer a farm.                

*Description of Respondents:*                     Farms.                

*Number of Respondents:*                     7,539.                

*Frequency of Responses:*                     Reporting: On occasion.                

*Total Burden Hours:*                     1,256.
