1412.73—Sharing of ACRE payments.

(a) Each eligible producer on a farm will be given the opportunity to elect the ACRE option and receive payments determined to be fair and equitable as agreed to by all producers on the farm and approved by the county committee.
(b) The provisions of § 1412.54(f) regarding the classification of leases apply to ACRE.
(c) Shares of ACRE payments will be determined based on shares recorded on the report of acreage filed in accordance with § 1412.66. Each eligible producer having a share of covered commodities or peanuts planted or considered planted on a farm enrolled under an ACRE program contract must do both of the following to be eligible for their share of an ACRE payment:
(1) Unless otherwise already enrolled on the ACRE program contract with a share of base acres on the farm, sign the ACRE program contract during the contract period.
(2) Have the producer's share recorded on report of acreage filed in accordance with part 718 of this title and § 1412.66 of this part.
(d) In a case where a producer has failed to sign an ACRE program contract for the producer's reported share of covered commodities or peanuts planted or considered planted on a farm enrolled in accordance with this subpart, that producer's share will not receive any consideration for payment and will not generate any payment to the producer or to any other producer on the farm.
