#786 - New USDA Pass-Through Rules for Farmers: LLC, S Corp Payment Limits & FSA 902 Updates

USDA has released new guidance on qualified pass-through entity rules, and the changes could matter for many farm operations structured as LLCs, S corporations, partnerships, LLPs, and other farm entities. In this episode of The Ag View Pitch, Chris visits with Paul Neiffer to break down what the new USDA and FSA rules mean for farmers, including changes to payment limits, ARC and PLC eligibility, AGI testing, actively engaged rules, and the upcoming CCC-902E filing requirements. They discuss how LLCs and S corporations may now be treated more like general partnerships for USDA payment limit purposes, why C corporations are still limited differently, what the new AGI guidance means, and why farmers should be paying close attention to FSA deadlines for base acre updates and entity paperwork.  This episode covers new USDA qualified pass-through entity rules, LLC and S corporation payment limits, C corporation limitations, ARC and PLC program implications, AGI testing changes, FSA CCC-902E filing requirements, base acre update deadlines, actively engaged rules, and farm entity planning and compliance.
