No
Burden Increase Due to:
Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion:
Yes
Burden Reduction Due to:
Changing Regulations
Short Statement:
The burden increased due to added hours for new pilot programs and privately developed crop insurance programs under section 508(h) of the Act for malting barley revenue, sugar cane, pecan trees, triticale, APH caneberry, macadamia tree, dairy revenue protection. The number of crop insurance agents and producers decreased with this package. Our estimates are derived from the number of producers and agents filling out that information. Since there were less producers and agents, there is less burden because not as many respondents are providing information. The increases and decreases within industry resulted in an overall decrease in burden of 671,385 hours.
