Agricultural Marketing Service
Title: Transparency in Poultry Grower Contracting and Tournaments.
OMB Control Number: 0581-NEW.
Summary of Collection: In accordance with the authority granted to
the Secretary by the Packers and Stockyards Act of 1921 the Packers and
Stockyards Division (PSD) is proposing regulations under the Packers
and Stockyards Act, 1921, (P&S Act) (7 U.S.C. 181 et seq.) that clarify
when certain conduct in the livestock and poultry industries represents
the making or giving of an undue or unreasonable preference or
advantage or subjects a person or locality to an undue or unreasonable
prejudice or disadvantage. These proposed regulations also establish
criteria PSD will consider in determining whether a live poultry dealer
has provided prescribed documents to a prospective or current poultry
grower.
Need and Use of the Information: The information collection
requirements in this request are essential to improve transparency and
forestall deception in the use of poultry growing arrangements, in
accordance with the purposes of the Packers and Stockyards Act, 1921.
Proposed revisions to the Packers and Stockyards regulations would
require live poultry dealers to provide certain disclosures to poultry
growers in advance of entering into production contracts. Under the
proposal, dealers would have the option of using the Live Poultry
Dealer Disclosure Form provided by AMS to meet the requirements for the
cover page that must accompany additional dealer-generated disclosure
documents as required. Alternatively, dealers could develop their own
cover page to meet the requirement, as long as all the required
information is included. Poultry growers could use the disclosure
information to evaluate the accuracy of proposed contracts and make
informed business decisions regarding financial investments related to
poultry production.
Description of Respondents: Business or other for-profit.
Number of Respondents: 89.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting: Annually.
Total Burden Hours: 29,346.
