CCC-941 (09-21-20) Page 2 of 2
GENERAL INFORMATION ON AVERAGE ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME – PART A
Individuals or legal entities that receive benefits under most programs administered by CCC cannot have incomes that exceed a certain limit set by law. For
entities, both the entity itself, and its members cannot exceed the income limitation. If a member, whether an individual or an entity, of an entity exceeds the
limitation, payments to that entity will be commensurately reduced according to that member’s direct or indirect ownership share in the entity. (All members of
the entity must also submit this form to verify income the limitation is met.)
Adjusted Gross Income is the individual’s or legal entity’s IRS-reported adjusted gross income consisting of both farm and nonfarm income. A three-year
average of that income will be computed for the three years of the relevant base period identified on the first page of this form to determine eligibility for the
applicable program year. Individuals or legal entities with average adjusted gross income greater than $900,000 shall be ineligible for all payments and
benefits under the commodity, price support, disaster assistance, and conservation programs.
HOW TO DETERMINE ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME (AGI)
Individual – Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Form 1040 filers, specific lines on that form represent the adjusted gross income and the income from farming,
ranching, or forestry operations.
Trust or Estate – the adjusted gross income is the total income and charitable contributions reported to IRS.
Corporation – the adjusted gross income is the total of the final taxable income and any charitable contributions reported to IRS.
Limited Partnership (LP), Limited Liability Company (LLC), Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) or Similar Entity – the adjusted gross income is the total
income from trade or business activities plus guaranteed payments to the members as reported to the IRS.
Tax-exempt Organization – the adjusted gross income is the unrelated business taxable income excluding any income from non-commercial activities as
reported to the IRS.
HOW TO DETERMINE AVERAGE ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME
The period for calculation of the average AGI will be of the three taxable years preceding the most immediately preceding complete taxable year for which
benefits are requested. This table shows examples for applicable years to be used in determining average AGI.
IF the crop year is…
THEN… Average AGI will be based on the following years….

HOW TO DETERMINE ADJUSTED GROSS INCOME
Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) is the individual’s or legal entity’s IRS-reported adjusted gross income or equivalent (see below) consisting of
both farm and nonfarm income.
Individual – Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Form 1040 filers, specific lines on that form represent the adjusted gross income
Trust or Estate – the adjusted gross income equivalent is the total income and charitable contributions reported to IRS
Corporation – the adjusted gross income equivalent is the total of the final taxable income and any charitable contributions reported to IRS
Limited Partnership (LP), Limited Liability Company (LLC), Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) or Similar Entity – the adjusted gross
income is the total income from trade or business activities plus guaranteed payments to the members as reported to the IRS
Tax-exempt Organization – the adjusted gross income is the unrelated business taxable income excluding any income from non-commercial
activities as reported to the IRS.
HOW TO DETERMINE INCOME FROM FARMING, RANCHING, AND FORESTRY OPERATIONS
Income received or obtained from the following sources:
Production of crops, specialty crops, and raw forestry products.
Feeding, rearing, or finishing of livestock.
Production of livestock, aquaculture products used for food;
honeybees; and products produced by or derived from livestock.
Payments of benefits, including benefits from risk management
practices, crop insurance indemnities, and catastrophic risk protection
plans.
Production of farm-based renewable energy.
Sale of land that has been used for agricultural purposes.
Sale, including easements and development rights, of farm, ranch, and
forestry land, water or hunting rights, or environmental benefits.

family members may be considered farm income when the legal entity is “materially participating” in farming, ranching or forestry activities..
“Materially participating” means more than 50 percent of the legal entity’s gross receipts for each tax year are derived from farming, ranching or
forestry sources. A representative of the legal entity must attach a certification to form CCC-942 attesting that the legal entity “materially
participates” in a farm, ranch or forestry activity.
HOW TO DETERMINE PERCENTAGE OF AVERAGE AGI FROM FARMING, RANCHING, AND FORESTRY OPERATIONS
1) Determine the total AGI and the total income from farming, ranching, and forestry for each of the 3 taxable years preceding the most
immediately preceding complete taxable year for which benefits are requested.
2) Total the AGI (both farm and nonfarm income) from all 3 years.
3) Total the income from farming, ranching and forestry from all 3 years.
4) Calculate the percentage of average AGI income by dividing the result of step 3 by the result of Step 2. The
percentage calculated must be equal to; or greater than 75 percent to qualify for program benefits.
This form can only be signed by the individual authorized under state law to sign as a representative of the legal entity identified in Item 3.

entity owns or rents land to or from that farming operation; has an interest in the agricultural commodities produced on the operation; or is a member of a joint
operation that either owns or rents land to or from the farming operation, or has an interest in the agricultural commodities produced on that operation.
