FSA to Begin Contacting Certain Farmers Who Operate Under Select Business Entities Soon

Faribault County farmers who operate under certain business entities could soon be hearing from the local Farm Service Agency.

FSA Executive Director Nicki Miranowski says about 100 Faribault County producers are affected by new payment eligibility requirements under the Working Families Tax Cut Act.

The change applies to certain corporations, limited liability partnerships and limited liability companies.  FSA will begin contacting affected producers to determine whether they qualify as pass through entities and to update their 902 payment eligibility forms.

Miranowski says the process must be completed by September 15^th.  Missing that deadline will require additional documentation and County Committee approval.

The updated forms are required to remain eligible for 2026 payments, including payment that could begin going out in October.
