Agricultural Disaster Indemnity Programs; Approval of Information Collection Request

Key Points

• This notice says the government approved the forms USDA needs to collect info to pay farmers after disasters.
• If you’re a farmer applying for disaster help, you may have to fill out a few new forms as part of the application.
• The approval lasts until 10/31/2027, so these paperwork rules can be used for the next couple of years.
• USDA estimates the total time spent by all applicants each year is about 118,131 hours—time costs for farmers, not new cash payments.
• For most people, nothing changes day to day unless you’re applying for farm disaster aid or helping someone file the paperwork.
