Fast Edit PR: An issue was found with the current year production roll logic for Skip Row Cotton. When production is keyed via the current year production reporting grid in Fast Edit PR, it is stored in a staging table and rolled to the APH when the policy rolls to the next RY. An issue was found where the total production for Skip Row Cotton was rolling to the net production field on the APH rather than the gross production field. The current year production roll logic for Skip Row Cotton has been updated to roll production to the gross production field.

64605

Perennials: During internal testing, a bug was found where Perennial crops covered under the Davis RO were not utilizing the RO UG for High Variability-Trending specified in Section C, Par 1. Per the 2018 Davis RO UG, the guidelines are applicable to 2019 CY Citrus, Avocados, and Macadamia Nuts and all 2018 CY Category C crops in AZ, CA, HI, and UT.

System logic has been corrected to apply 2018 RO UG for High Variability - Downward Trending to 2019 CY Citrus, Avocados, and Macadamia Nuts and to all 2018 CY Category C crops in AZ, CA, HI, and UT.

If an APH database meets the standard downward trend testing guidelines from 2018 CIH Par. 1862 E:

1. The System will set Average Yields as the Approved APH Yield (or the Adjusted Yield as the Approved Yield if YA is applicable) if the APH database DOES NOT meet any of the following criteria:
a. Both of the previous two most recent crop years' actual yields are less than 75% of the Average APH Yield;
b. Three or more crop years' actual yields are less than 75% of the Average APH Yield in the last four or five years; or
c. One or more crop years in the most recent five crop years contains an Assigned Yield (P Yield Type).
2. Then, the System will set:
a. The APH Override to "High Variability";
b. A Special Case Yield Indicator of "D"; and
c. A Yield Limitation Flag of "01" without YA and "12" with YA. CUP cannot apply (TFS #71718).

APH: An issue was found in the APH where, for the 2018 RY, the Yield Used field wasn't consistently populating (display issue) and was not being used in the Approved Yield if YE applied. This has been corrected.

82012

Perennials: System logic was updated to only allow the APH Override of "Organic Transitional T-Yld" if less than four years of Actual/Assigned Yields exist in the database. Then, if selected, the Yield Override field is available and 100% of the value entered into the override field is applied to the Current Year T-Yield field and the most recent one to four years of non-actual yields in the database necessary to complete the four year base period. The Yield Type of "OF" will be applied to the most recent one to four years of non-actual yields in the database necessary to complete the four year base period.

NOTE: When less than four years of Actual/Assigned yields exist in the database, the Override value and "OF" Yield Type will be used to complete the four year base period.

The Yield Type of "OF" cannot be preceded by Actual/Assigned Yields in the database ("OF" cannot follow Actual Yields). For example, if an Actual/Assigned Yield exists in Yield Year 2017, the "OF" Yield Type cannot exist in 2018 and later; the "OF" Yield Type can only exist in 2016 and prior.

Transmissions: In the 6.050.0 release, TFS #74949 added stand-alone Margin Protection (MP) production reporting logic to the existing ARPI/stand-alone STAX grid. Margin Protection written as a stand-alone policy has a production reporting requirement per the established ADM date. This ticket created the P26 Record for the Transmission when production is reported for a stand-alone MP policy.
