Farm Service Agency 

Title: Request for Direct Loan 

Assistance and Request for Direct Loan 

Assistance (Youth Loans). 

OMB Control Number: 0560–0167. 

Summary of Collection: Section 302 (7 

U.S.C. 1922) of the Consolidated Farm 

and Rural Development Act (CONACT) 

provides that ‘‘the Secretary is 

authorized to make and insure loans 

under this title to farmers and 

ranchers.’’ The Farm Service Agency 

(FSA) has issued regulations through 

the Federal Register process to 

implement the making and servicing of 

direct loans in chapters VII and XVIII of 

the Code of Federal Regulations. These 

regulations establish the information 

collection necessary for FSA to make 

and service direct loans. The loans 

include Operating, Farm Ownership, 

Soil and Water, Softwood Timber 

Production, Emergency, Economic 

Emergency, Economic Opportunity, 

Recreation, and Rural Housing loans for 

farm service buildings. FSA will collect 

information using forms FSA 410–1, 

Request for Direct Loan Assistance and 

FSA 2011, Request for Direct Loan 

Assistance (Youth Loans). 

Need and Use of the Information: FSA 

will collect information to determine if 

the applicant/borrower meets the 

eligibility requirements established in 

the CONACT. FSA will also collect the 

following information: Name, address, 

telephone number; social security 

number; type of farming operation; 

information relating to the applicant’s 

credit history (excluded on FSA 2011); 

the source and amount of nonfarm 

income; and a financial statement. If the 

information were not collected FAS 

would be forced to use outdated 

financial information, which would 

result in much higher losses to the 

government. 

Description of Respondents: Farm; 

Federal Government; Business or otherfor-profit; Individuals or households. 

Number of Respondents: 36,469. 

Frequency of Responses: Reporting: 

Other (on application). 

Total Burden Hours: 59,343.
