On-Line Farm Program Calculation Tools Now Available Cary Son, Farm Program Specialist of USDA’s Farm Service Agency (FSA) in Utah announced today that new online research and planning tools are now available for farmers and ranchers to assist them in examining how the new 2008 Farm Bill programs apply to their crops and operations. Average Crop Revenue Election Program (ACRE) is a new revenue-based guarantee program administered by FSA that assists farmers and ranchers in managing the risks inherent in agricultural operations. ACRE is an alternative to the traditional price-stabilizing Direct and Counter-cyclical Program. By visiting the FSA website at www.fsa.usda.gov, growers can enter their crops, acreages and price/yield projections into an “ACRE Calculator” to evaluate potential results. The calculator tool and other information including eligibility resources can be found by navigating to the Direct and Counter-cyclical Program/ACRE pages shown in the menu bar on the left side of the FSA homepage. “The ACRE alternative provides eligible producers a state-level revenue guarantee, based on the five-year state Olympic average yield and the two-year national average price,” said Son. The website also provides a 2008 Benchmark Yield History, ACRE Revenue Yield Maps and ACRE Price Values. The calculator can be used for one year and repeated to project multiple year results. Additional ACRE background information includes fact sheets and descriptive charts to help exBy Darrian Kister plain this program’s provisions and calculations.
