Producers and handlers incur significant costs to obtain or renew USDA organic certification each year, and the economic challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic have made obtaining and renewing USDA organic certification financially challenging for many operations.                

*Need and Use of the Information:*                     In order for FSA to determine whether a producer is eligible for OTECP and to calculate a payment, an applicant is required to submit form FSA-883, Organic and Transitional Education and Certification Program (OTECP). Applicants must also have the following forms on file with FSA: AD-2047, Customer Data Worksheet, and SF-3881, ACH Vendor/Miscellaneous Payment Enrollment Form. The information collection request is required for the producers and handlers to provide their status as either a certified operation or transitional operation and their eligible expenses to get the OTECP payments.
