2024 AgriStability and AgriInvest Program – Corporation Co-operative and Special Individual Harmonized Guide (AgriStability)

Revised October 2024

 

Before you start

This guide will help you complete your form to participate in the AgriStability and AgriInvest programs if you are applying as a corporation, co-operative or special individual.

  • AgriStability - a margin-based program that provides income support when you experience larger income losses

Chapter 1: Your AgriStability and AgriInvest programs

You can choose to participate in AgriStability only, AgriInvest only, or both programs together, depending on the business risk management needs of your farm.

As a program participant, you are responsible for knowing program deadlines and understanding program policies. See the program handbooks for more information.

AgriStability

AgriStability is a voluntary program that provides support when you experience larger income losses.

Are you eligible?

To participate in AgriStability for the 2024 program year, you must:

  • file a Statement A form by the September 30, 2025 final deadline (December 31, 2025 for participants from British Columbia)
  • file a 2024 Canadian income tax return reporting eligible farming income (loss) by September 30, 2025 (except Status Indians farming on a reserve in Canada who are exempt from filing an income tax return). The deadline is December 31, 2025 for participants in British Columbia.
  • meet all program requirements by the deadlines

In addition, you must have:

  • enrolled in the program and paid your fee by the deadline shown on your Enrolment Notice
  • completed a minimum of 6 consecutive months of farming activity
  • completed a production cycle (for example, growing and harvesting a crop or rearing livestock)

We may waive the requirements to complete 6 consecutive months of farming activity and a production cycle if you experienced a disaster.

How to participate

Fill in and send pages 1 to 6 of your Statement A by the deadline. See page 3 for information on program deadlines.

AgriStability benefit calculations

AgriStability is based on margins.

Program margin - your allowable income minus your allowable expenses in the current year adjusted for changes in purchased inputs, receivables, payables, and inventory.

Generally, you will receive an AgriStability payment when your program margin in the current year falls more than 30% below your reference margin. AgriStability covers 80% of your decline that is beyond the 30%.

2024 Reference margins will be calculated as follows:

  • If you participated in the program in any of the past 4 years, we'll calculate your reference margin using the program margins for the previous 5 years. The highest and lowest program margins are dropped and the remaining 3 are averaged. This is called an Olympic average.
  • If you did not participate in the program in the past 4 years, we'll calculate your reference margin using an average of the 3 previous program margins. We'll continue to calculate your reference margin using 3 previous program margins until you have 5 years of historical information on file.
  • If you did not have farming activity in one or more of the 5 previous years, your reference margin will be calculated using an average of the 3 previous years. If you did not have farming activity in any of the 3 previous years, we'll create margins for any missing years using industry averages.

For more information on margins and how we calculate AgriStability payments, see your program handbook.

We'll send you a Calculation of Program Benefits (COB) after we process your form, to show you how we calculated your benefit.

AgriStability program fee

You must pay an annual fee to participate in AgriStability. The fee is $3.15 for every $1,000.00 of contribution reference margin protected (based on coverage of 70% of your margin). The minimum fee is $45.00. See your Enrolment Notice or your program handbook for more information on the program fee and participation rules.

Administrative cost share (ACS)

You must pay $55.00 each year for administration costs.

To participate in AgriStability, you must pay your fee and ACS by the deadline. You can:

  • pay electronically through your financial institution (contact them to see if they offer this service)
  • send your cheque direct to your Administration

For more information contact your Administration.

Note: The electronic payment is not available for producers in British Columbia.

AgriInvest

AgriInvest is a voluntary program that provides you with a self-managed producer-government savings account.

Each year you can deposit money into an AgriInvest account and receive matching government contributions. You can withdraw the money when you need it.

Are you eligible?

To participate in AgriInvest for the 2024 program year, you must:

  • file a Statement A form by December 31, 2025
  • file a 2024 Canadian income tax return reporting eligible farming income (loss) by December 31, 2025 (except Status Indians farming on a reserve in Canada who are exempt from filing an income tax return)
  • meet all program requirements by the deadlines

How to participate

Fill in and send pages 1 to 4 of your Statement A by the deadline. See below for information on program deadlines.

AgriInvest benefit calculations

AgriInvest deposits are based on a percentage of your allowable net sales. Allowable net sales are your total allowable commodity sales and program payments minus your total allowable commodity purchases and repayment of program benefits.

Once we process your form, we'll send you a Deposit Notice showing your deposit options.

Other farming information

Location of main farmstead

See the list of provincial jurisdictions (rural municipalities, counties, or districts) in the Regional code list. You don't have to fill in this section if you farm in Newfoundland and Labrador or Northwest Territories.

Combined Operations

AgriStability is a whole farm program. That means we may combine your farm with another farm even if the operations report separately for income tax.

Combining ensures that AgriStability benefits are paid to farms that had decreases in income for reasons beyond their control, not because of business or tax planning decisions.

Generally, you should answer "Yes" to this question if your farm:

  • is legally, financially, or operationally dependent on another farming operation
  • all or some of the transactions between the farms are not at fair market value
  • the farms share the same land or equipment

Individuals in a partnership do not need to be combined.

If your farm has a change in combined operations, enter the operation PIN and tick “Add” or “Remove.”

We need the information from all the combined farms before we can process your form.

For more information on combining, see your program handbook.

Identification

In the following sections of the form, only provide information about your main farming operation (Operation #1) on the form. Complete a Statement B for each additional operation you have. Number each operation in the box at the top right-hand corner of each page.

Tick the “Sole proprietorship” or “Partnership” box.

Fiscal period

Enter the year, month and day for the beginning and end of your farm's taxation year. Your farm's 2024 fiscal period must end in the 2024 tax year.

Method of accounting

Use the same method of reporting (cash or accrual) for AgriStability and AgriInvest as you use for income tax.

Enter either:

  • code 1 for accrual method
  • code 2 for cash method

Transfer the income and expenses from your Statement of Farming Activities onto the form based on the instructions in this guide.

Was your farm involved in any of the following?

Tick the applicable box(es) if your farm was:

  • a member of a feeder association
  • in a crop share arrangement as either a landlord or a tenant

Chapter 4: Calculating your farming income or loss

The Income, Expense and Statement of farming activities sections of the form are used to calculate your allowable net sales for AgriInvest. Allowable net sales are allowable commodity sales and program payments, less allowable purchases and repayment of program benefits.

See the program handbook for more information on allowable net sales and how we calculate benefits under AgriInvest.

We also use these sections to calculate the cash portion of your program year margin for AgriStability. See the program handbook for more information on how we calculate AgriStability margins.

Use the Commodity and the Program payment lists found at the back of this guide to report all of your 2024 income and expenses. Codes may change from year to year. Check the lists to make sure you are using the right code.

If you use the accrual method of accounting, report your sales and your changes in opening and closing commodity inventories separately using the line code for the commodity to report both entries.

The instructions in this chapter apply to both the Statement A and Statement B.

Income

An agricultural commodity is a plant or an animal produced in a farming business.

Some commodities that may be considered farming income for tax purposes are not allowable for AgriStability and AgriInvest including:

  • aquaculture
  • trees and seedlings sold for use in reforestation
  • wood sales
  • peat moss
  • wild game reserves
  • cannabis and cannabis by-products (except for industrial hemp)

Where permitted by law, hunt farms (not wild game reserves), are eligible. For information on how to apply if you operate a hunt farm, contact your Administration.

If you produce both allowable and non-allowable commodities on your farm report the income from:

  • non-allowable commodities on line 9600 except for woodlots or cannabis and cannabis by-products (except for industrial hemp). Report woodlot sales using code 259 and cannabis using code 382.
  • allowable commodities using the commodity codes on the “Commodity sales and program payments” section of the form. Report allowable commodity sales based on the point of sale conditions.

Sales and purchases of supply managed commodities are not allowable for AgriInvest. You must produce allowable commodities in addition to your supply managed commodities to participate in AgriInvest.

Enter both your supply managed and non-supply managed commodities on the “Commodity sales and program payments” section of the form. Use the codes found at the end of this guide.

If you have questions about whether a commodity you produce is allowable for AgriStability and AgriInvest, contact your Administration.

Farming activities outside of Canada

If you produce a commodity in Canada, then ship it outside of the country for further production, the income and expenses generated once the commodity leaves Canada are non-allowable for AgriStability and AgriInvest.

When shipping commodities outside Canada for further production, include the fair market value of the commodity at the point it leaves Canada as allowable income using the code for the commodity.

If the commodity is returned to Canada for further production or sale, include the fair market value of the commodity at the point it enters Canada as an allowable purchase using the code for the commodity.

If you purchased livestock, you must have made an appreciable contribution to the growth or its increase in value in Canada for the income and expenses to be considered allowable. For AgriStability, commodities reported in the “Livestock inventory valuation” and the “Livestock productive capacity” sections of the form should reflect the allowable production that occurred in Canada only.

Point of sale

AgriInvest benefits are based on allowable net sales, so you have to determine when the sale occurs. For AgriInvest, the point of sale is determined by the following conditions:

  • you produce it on your farm
  • it is separate and identifiable from other producers' commodities
  • you bear full risk for it
  • you have a separate billing or accounting transaction that shows the sales value and any deductions from that value

The point of sale is when you:

  • can no longer identify your commodity as your own
  • are no longer at risk for the value of the commodity

If your commodity sales meet these point of sale conditions, enter the code, name, and gross sale amount of each commodity on the form.

Example

You have potato sales of $50,000, you enter:
147 potatoes   $50,000

If you received a cheque for a commodity sale that is net of expenses, report the sale to include the full value of the commodity.

Example

Your receipt from the processor shows:

$10,000
gross apple sales
− $1,500
pack-and-sell costs
= $8,500
net sales

Enter $10,000 as your gross apple sales and $1,500 as an expense on line 9836 - Commissions and levies.

If your commodity sales include charges that were applied after the point of sale, adjust your sales to show the value of the commodity at the point of sale. Enter any amounts charged after the point of sale on “line 575 - Point of sale adjustments”. This will ensure that we calculate your allowable net sales correctly.

Example

Your cash ticket from the elevator shows:

$7,000
gross wheat sales
$1,500
freight charges
$ 300
elevation charges
= $5,200
net sales
 

Enter the gross wheat sales of $7,000 as income. Enter the freight charges of $1,500 and elevation charges of $300 as a point of sale adjustment on “line 575 under Commodity purchases and repayment of program benefits” (not under Allowable expenses). You enter these changes on line 575 because you incurred these expenses after you delivered your grain to the elevator (for example after the point of sale).

Payment in kind

A payment in kind occurs when you receive or give goods or services instead of money. For instance, to pay someone for a business expense, you may give them something you produced on your farm instead of money. When you do this, include the fair market value (FMV) of the goods or services in income. Use the appropriate code for the commodity. Deduct the same amount as an expense.

If you received a payment in kind for a product you would normally have sold, include the FMV of the product in income.

If you were a landlord renting out land involved in sharecropping, we consider any payment in kind you received to be rental income.

Example

You owe your landlord $1,000 for rent. Instead of cash, you pay them by giving them $1,000 worth of seed. Enter the fair market value of the seed crops ($1,000) that you gave the landlord as a commodity sale. Enter the $1,000 on line 9811 as a rental expense.

Gifts

Report the value of livestock or other items that you gave away but would normally have sold as a commodity sale. Once you give the livestock or other items away, you cannot deduct any more costs for raising or maintaining them.

Crop share

If you are a tenant in a crop share, you are eligible to apply for AgriStability and AgriInvest.

If you are a landlord in a crop share, you are eligible for AgriStability and AgriInvest only if the crop share arrangement is considered a joint venture.

For AgriStability, your crop share arrangement is considered a joint venture if your share of the allowable expenses reported to the Canada Revenue Agency is reasonable for your share of the related allowable income.

For AgriInvest, your crop share arrangement is considered a joint venture if your share of the allowable purchases reported to the Canada Revenue Agency is reasonable for your share of the related allowable income.

Eligible tenants and landlords report only their individual share of the allowable income and expenses.

Example 1

You are a tenant in a crop share and receive 60% of the income from the sale of your crop. Enter only your 60% share of the sales under “Commodity sales and program payments”. Enter your 60% share of expenses under “Allowable expenses”.

Example 2

You are an eligible landlord who receives 40% of the income from the sale of the crop. Enter only your 40% share of the sales under “Commodity sales and program payments”. Enter your 40% share of expenses under “Allowable expenses”.

Commodity futures

You can report income from commodity futures as a commodity sale for AgriStability and AgriInvest purposes if the income is both:

  • from a primary agricultural product that you produced on your farm
  • considered a hedging strategy, not speculation

Report commodity futures as follows:

You are not required to provide End of year prices in the “Crop inventory valuation and productive capacity” and “Livestock inventory valuation” sections of the form if the commodities you report are marked with an “X” on the Inventory code list for your province or territory.

We develop prices for commodities marked with an “X” using information from:

  • Statistics Canada
  • Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada
  • provincial agriculture departments
  • commodity organizations

The prices are published in the AgriStability price list. We use these prices to value your inventory. You can request this list from us or find it on the AgriStability website.

If you do not feel these prices are appropriate for your farm, you may use your own prices if you can show that either your:

  • commodity is very different from the commodity listed
  • method of marketing the commodity was very different from the general marketing practice

In either of these cases, you may use end of year prices based on sales or purchases of the specific commodity:

  • in your name
  • occurring within 30 days either before or after your fiscal year-end

To use your own prices, send copies of receipts or documents that support these prices. Send this information to your Administration at the same time you send your form, or within your adjustment time frame. See Adjustments. For adjustment rules, see the program handbook or visit the program website.

We'll determine if the prices are reasonable for your commodity.

Commodities with unpublished prices

You must provide End of year prices for the crop and livestock inventories that are shaded on the Inventory code list for your province or territory.

Base your prices on either:

  • the estimated market prices at year-end
  • sales or purchases within 12 months before or after your fiscal year-end

You are not required to provide documentation to support these prices. However, if you do, it will increase the chances of your price being accepted.

Supporting documentation includes either:

  • receipts from sales or purchases of the commodity
  • commodity specific price information from appropriate commodity marketing agencies

Send your supporting documentation at the same time you send your form or within your adjustment time frame. See Adjustments. For adjustment rules, see the program handbook.

We'll determine if the prices are reasonable for your commodity.

Has the productive capacity of this operation decreased during the program year due to disaster circumstances?

Tick “Yes” if the productive capacity of your farm decreased due to disaster circumstances during the program year. A decrease in productive capacity means a decrease in the overall amount you produced.

For example, tick “Yes” if CFIA ordered your livestock to be destroyed due to disease or if you could not seed or harvest some or all of your land because of extreme wet or dry conditions.

If you participated in crop or production insurance in the program year for this operation, provide the Contract or Identification numbers

If you participated in AgriInsurance (crop or production insurance), including hail insurance, provide your contract or identification numbers that relate to the crops listed in the “Crop inventory valuation and productive capacity” section.

Crop inventory valuation and productive capacity

Fill in this section if you either:

  • produced or seeded crops or forage with the expectation of harvest during the fiscal year
  • had unseedable acres in the fiscal year (see Unseedable acres)
  • carried over crops or forage in your inventories from your previous fiscal period

If you file your income tax on the accrual basis, you do not have to complete the “End of year price $” column.

This part of the form is used to:

  • measure the change in your crop and forage inventory from the ending amount you reported in 2023 to the ending amount in your 2024 fiscal year
  • show that you have completed a production cycle
  • adjust your reference margins, if you had a structural change

To help you fill in this section, refer to your:

  1. crop production records
  2. sales and feeding records
  3. crop insurance measurements
  4. inventory records

How to fill in the columns

Code and Crop/Grade

Use the Inventory code list to report all commodities by code and description that you either:

  • produced
  • had on hand at the end of your fiscal period
  • planned to produce but could not because your land was too wet or too dry

Grain producers, enter each grade or variety of crop separately. For example, enter #1 CWRS wheat separately from #2 CWRS wheat. Leave the code blank if the commodity is not listed in the Inventory code list.

Units

Use the Units of measurement code list to enter the code used to measure your production. Enter your “Quantity produced” and “Ending inventory” using the same unit of measurement.

Acres

Enter the number of acres used to produce each crop. Enter only those acres that produced, or should have produced a crop during your 2024 fiscal period.

If you had unseedable acres (too wet or too dry), enter them in the “Unseedable acres” column. Enter all summerfallow, pasture and wasteland acres on the designated lines.

For commodities not measured in acres, use the unit of measurement that is standard for the commodity.

Example

Greenhouse and nursery operations (including floriculture) report in square metres, based on the productive area.

Maple syrup operations report in hundreds of taps producing. For example, if you have 350 taps producing, enter 3.5  (350 ÷ 100 = 3.5).

Unseedable acres

Report the acres you planned to seed for each commodity that should have produced a crop but did not because the land was too wet or too dry.

Example

At the beginning of the year you planned to grow canola on 300 of your acres. However, you only seeded 200 acres because of flooding. In your crop inventory, enter 200 acres of canola and 100 unseedable acres as canola.

If you planned to produce multi-stage crops, report the unseedable acres for each multi-stage commodity you planned to seed in your fiscal period.

Quantity produced

Enter the quantity of the crop you produced in your fiscal period.

Ending inventory

Enter the quantity of crop you had at the end of your fiscal period.

End of year price $

Provide an end of year price to value crops that are shaded on the Inventory code list for your province or territory.

Leave the “End of year price $” blank if your commodity is marked with an “X” on the Inventory code list, unless you meet the conditions to use your own price. See Commodities with published prices for more information.

Crops or forage carried over from 2022 but no longer seeded or produced in 2023

If you had inventory at the end of your 2022 fiscal period for a commodity you did not produce in 2023:

  • fill in the “Code”, “Crop/Grade”, and "Units” columns
  • enter “0” in the “Acres” and “Quantity produced” columns
  • enter ending inventory in “Ending inventory” column if you are carrying the inventory to your 2024 fiscal period

Landlords/tenants

If you are a tenant in a crop share, or a landlord in a joint venture crop share, report your share of the acres and quantities.

Example

You rent 300 acres in a crop share agreement. You receive 2/3 of the crop and pay 2/3 of the allowable expenses. Your landlord receives the remaining 1/3 of the crop and pays 1/3 of the allowable expenses. In 2024, the rented land produces 300 tonnes of wheat.

You enter your 2/3 share of both the acreage and the production:

  • 200 acres
  • 200 tonnes of wheat

Your landlord enters their 1/3 share of both the acreage and the production:

  • 100 acres
  • 100 tonnes of wheat

Commodity pools

If you sold commodities into a pool, enter the full value of your commodity even if you only received a portion of the payment in your 2024 fiscal period.

Use code "4020 - Expected grains and oilseeds pool payments" to enter any payments you received or expect to receive for your commodity after your 2024 fiscal year-end as a receivable in the "Deferred income and receivables" section of the form.

Example

In 2024 you sold 10 tonnes of wheat through the G3 Canada Limited. You received initial and adjusted pool payments of $2,554.50 in 2024, and estimate that the final payment you will receive in 2024 will be $645.50.

Enter:

  • $2,554.50 as a wheat sale using code 056
  • $645.50 in “Deferred income and receivables” section, using code “4020 - Expected grains and oilseeds pool payments”

Perishable horticulture crops

A perishable horticulture or floriculture crop:

  • spoils or decays easily
  • cannot be stored for periods longer than 10 months, such as potatoes, apples or carrots

Enter only the "Quantity produced" from your 2024 fiscal period. Don't report ending inventories or production from your previous fiscal period.

Enter any income from the sales of 2024 crops that you will receive in your 2025 fiscal period in the “Deferred income and receivables” section.

Swath grazing

If you use swath grazing as a management practice, use code 5588 to enter the number of acres you used for swath grazing. Enter your production (in tonnes) and any swath remaining at the end of your fiscal period as ending inventory.

Organic production

Enter your crop as “organic” only if it has been Certified Organic. We may ask for your organic certification.

Unharvestable acres

If you grew a commodity and expected to harvest it in your fiscal year but could not for reasons beyond your control, enter the commodity, acres, and enter “0” as the total production.

Snowed-under crops

If you could not harvest some or all of your crop at the end of your fiscal period because it was snowed under, enter the:

  • total acres for the crop using the inventory code for that crop
  • estimated production that you may be able to harvest next year

Then use code “6826 - Harvest discount allowance” to enter all of the commodities that were snowed under.

Example

You seeded 350 acres; 100 acres of canola and 250 acres of barley. You harvested 80 of your canola acres and 200 of your barley acres before the remainder of your crops were snowed under.

Enter the following as crops inventory:

  • 100 acres for canola
  • 250 acres for barley
  • the amount you harvested from those acres

Enter the remaining 70 acres as snowed under using code “6826 - Harvest discount allowance”.

350
seeded acres
 
− 80
acres of harvested canola
 
− 200
acres of harvested barley
 
= 70
acres snowed under
 

Standing crops

If your farm always has a standing crop at the end of your fiscal period (for example, July 31st), do not report the standing crop.

If your farm has an unexpected standing crop because you could not harvest it before the end of your fiscal period, include the standing crop in inventory.

Report the total acres for each crop you grew using the inventory codes for the commodity. Then use code “6826 - Harvest discount allowance”, to enter the total acreage of all commodities that had standing crop at your fiscal year-end.

Example

You had 400 acres seeded to flax. You were only able to harvest 250 of these acres before your fiscal year-end, leaving you with 150 acres still standing.

400
acres of flax
 
− 250
acres harvested
 
= 150
acres with standing crop
 

Enter 400 acres of flax, and the actual amount you harvested from those acres. Then enter 150 acres as standing using code "6826 - Harvest discount allowance".

Multiple crops

In provinces such as British Columbia, you may be able to harvest your commodity early enough to plant another commodity on those same acres. If you harvest both commodities in your 2024 fiscal period, report each commodity’s acreage and production in your crop inventory.

Example

You planted 2 acres of strawberries and harvested the berries early in the summer. You then removed the strawberry plants and planted potatoes which you harvested in the fall.

Enter:

  • 2 acres of strawberries and the amount you harvested from those acres
  • 2 acres of potatoes and the amount you harvested from those acres

Multi-stage crops

Multi-stage crops are commodities that take longer than one year to reach full production. Because multi-stage crops are grown over several years, there are different inventory codes to reflect the stage of production.

Use the Inventory code list (on page 50) to report the stage of production for your commodity. Report all the acres of your crop even if you did not harvest the crop in your 2024 fiscal year.

The multi-stage crops include:

  • highbush blueberries
  • grapes
  • sod
  • Christmas trees
  • echinacea
  • ginseng

In British Columbia, multi-stage crops also include:

  • cranberries
  • hops
  • sweet cherries
  • apples

In New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, multi-stage crops also include:

  • lowbush blueberries
  • cranberries

Highbush blueberries and grapes

Start reporting your acres in the year you plant. Continue reporting your acres during the non-bearing years.

Lowbush blueberries

Start reporting your acres once you have cleared the land and started nurturing the plants. Once you start producing blueberries, report your acres based on their stage of growth.

Sod

Report your total sod acres (seeded, growing, and harvested) based on their stage of growth at the end of your fiscal period.

Example

You seeded 150 acres at the end of 2024 and harvested them in 2025. Enter 150 acres using code "6941 - Sod, acres seeded".

Example 2

You seeded 150 acres in 2023 but did not harvest those acres until 2025. Enter 150 acres using code “6943 - Sod, acres growing”.

If you harvested and then re-seeded the same sod acres in your 2024 fiscal period, enter the acres twice.

Example

If you harvested and then re-seeded 150 acres, enter 150 acres using code “6945 - Sod, acres harvested” and 150 acres using code “6941 - Sod, acres seeded”.

If you produce sod in the following regions of British Columbia:

  • use code “6937 - Sod, acres harvested (BC Coastal Regions)” to report your sod
  • only enter your acres once, even if you had more than one harvest within your fiscal period
  • Capital (17)
  • Cowichan Valley (19)
  • Nanaimo (21)
  • Alberni-Clayoquot (23)
  • Comox-Strathcona (25)
  • Greater Vancouver (15)
  • Powell River (27)
  • Fraser Valley (9)
  • Sunshine Coast (29)
  • Squamish-Lillooet (31)

Christmas trees

There are 2 types of Christmas tree operations:

  • tree farms
  • managed natural tree stands

Tree farms plant their seedlings in a greenhouse, garden, or tree farm and maintain them until harvested.

Report your total acres of trees based on their stage of growth at the end of your fiscal period. Report your production and ending inventories based on the number of trees you had in each of the stages of growth.

To report your trees, use:

  • nursery codes for the seedlings you grow in your greenhouse or garden prior to transplanting to your tree farm
  • code 6960 for the seedlings or trees you planted on your tree farm the first year (establishment stage)
  • codes 6961, 6962, 6963, and 6964 to report your seedlings or trees based on their stage of growth

Managed natural tree stand operations select their trees from existing forest and actively maintain them until harvested.

Report the acres of trees that you actively maintained as either pre-harvested (in the ground) or harvested (removed from the ground). Base the number of acres you report on 1,000 trees per acre.

Example

If you had 9,500 pre-harvested trees at the end of your fiscal period, you report 9.5 acres (9,500 ÷ 1,000 = 9.5).

For pre-harvested acres, enter the quantity produced based on the number of trees. Report ending inventories and an end of year price for your pre-harvested trees.

For harvested acres, enter the quantity produced based on the number of trees harvested.

Don't report ending inventories or an end of year price for your harvested trees. Harvested trees are a perishable commodity.

They are adjusted on an accounts receivable basis, not an inventory basis.

Echinacea and ginseng

Enter acres in the establishment stage until the year of harvest. When you harvest the acres, enter them as root harvested.

Cranberries

Enter acres in the establishment stage until production starts. This stage can last up to 3 years.

Hops

Start reporting your acres in the year you plant.

Sweet cherries and apples

Enter the total acres planted for each commodity. Your Administration will collect details on the variety, age, and density of apples and sweet cherries.

Livestock inventory valuation

Fill in this section if you had livestock in your inventory during your fiscal year. Include livestock carried over from a previous fiscal period; or carried into the next fiscal period.

This part of the form is used to:

  • measure your livestock inventory change from the ending amount you reported in 2023 to the ending amount in the 2024 fiscal year
  • show that your farm has completed a production cycle

How to fill in the columns

Code and description

Use the Inventory code list to report all livestock that you had on hand at the end of your 2024 fiscal period. Enter each class of livestock separately.

Ending inventory

Enter the number of head that you had on hand at the end of your 2024 fiscal period. Use actual (not rounded) numbers.

End of year price $

Include an End of year price to value livestock that are shaded on the Inventory code list (for your province or territory). If you are reporting a livestock category that is marked with an “X” on the Inventory code list, leave this column blank.

Don't fill in this column if you file your income tax on the accrual basis.

Livestock lease agreements

If you are involved in a lease agreement, or if you own a part of an animal, report only your share of the lease agreement. For example, if you co-own a bull with another producer, enter half a bull in your inventory.

Lessee: If you lease a breeding herd but take only a percentage of the calf crop, report your share of the:

  • herd based on your share of the calf crop (use code “8134 - Breeding females, leased (not owned)” to report the leased cows)
  • calves (use the code for their weight class)

Example

If you lease 100 cows but take only 60% of the calf crop, enter only 60 cows (60% of 100) under code 8134. Then enter 60 calves using the codes based on their weights.

Lessor: If you own cows but lease them out and take a percentage of the calf crop, report:

  • 100% of your cows (use the applicable codes found in the Inventory code list)
  • your share of the calf crop (use the code for their weight class)

Livestock productive capacity

This information is used to adjust your reference margins if your operation experienced a change in structure.

Livestock lease agreements

If you lease animals but do not take 100% of the revenue from the animal, report only your share of the agreement.

Example

If you lease 100 cows but only keep 60% of the calf crop, enter 60 cows. 100 × 60% = 60

Productive animals

Code 104 - Cattle

Enter the number of cows that calved in your 2024 fiscal period.

Calves born in your 2024 fiscal period are not reported in the “Livestock productive capacity” section. Don't report calves that were born in your 2023 fiscal period, even if they were:

  • weaned
  • sold
  • held over to sell in a different fiscal period

However, you must enter all your calves as ending inventory in the “Livestock inventory valuation” section if you hold them over to your next fiscal period.

If you hold your calves over to your next fiscal period, enter them as code “105 - Feeder cattle” next year if they had an appreciable gain in that fiscal period.

Codes 123 and 145 - Hogs

Report the number of sows in the breeding herd within the 2024 fiscal period. Enter the sows based on the type of operation (farrowing or farrow to finish).

Calculate the average number of breeding sows by dividing the births in your fiscal period by your average birthrate per sow.

Example

10,000
births
÷ 23
average birthrate per sow
= 435
average number of breeding sows.
 

If your hog operation only produced for part of the year, make sure your average number of breeding sows is lower to reflect your reduced production.

Codes 105 and 106 - Number of feeder livestock - Cattle

Enter the number of animals you fed to an appreciable gain in 2024 (a 90 kg/200 lb weight gain or a minimum of 60 days on feed). Group the animals fed based on either:

  • the sale weight, if sold in your fiscal period
  • expected sale weight, if not sold in your fiscal period

Don't include the following animals in this section:

  • breeding animals
  • culls
  • animals that have not been weaned
  • animals born within the operation in the fiscal year
Codes 124 and 125 - Number of feeder livestock - Hogs

Enter the number of animals fed. Group the animals fed based on either:

  • the sale weight, if sold in the fiscal year
  • expected sale weight, if not sold in the fiscal year

Don't include the following animals in this section:

  • breeding animals
  • culls
  • animals that have not been weaned
  • animals born within your operation in the fiscal year
  • animals previously reported in a farrow to finish operation

Example

You purchased, fed, and sold 100 Isoweans to weanling weight (8 to 50 lb) and fed another 100 feeder hogs (50 lb to slaughter). Enter 100 Hogs, nursery (fed to 50 lb), and 100 Hogs, feeders (fed over 50 lb).

Custom fed livestock

Enter the number of animal feed days. Animal feed days are the number of animals x the number of days each animal was fed.

Example

100
animals fed
× 90
days
= 9,000
animal feed days
 

Supply managed commodities

Enter the amount of quota and contract you held.

Ranch fur operators

Enter the number of females that birthed.

Other (specify below)

Use the Productive capacity list to find the code and the units needed to enter any commodities that do not fit into the above categories. If the commodity is not listed, leave the code blank.

Purchased inputs

Fill in this section if it is relevant to your farm.

Don't fill in this section if you file your income tax on the accrual basis.

Enter inputs you purchased to produce your agricultural commodities that you did not use by the end of your fiscal period:

Some examples of purchased inputs are:

  • fuel
  • chemicals
  • purchased seed
  • feed
  • embryos
  • semen
  • fall application such as seed, fertilizers, and chemicals

Don't report your purchased inputs as ending inventory in the “Crop inventory valuation and productive capacity” and “Livestock inventory valuation” sections. For example, if you purchased $5,000 of wheat seed for next year’s crop enter the amount as a purchased input but do not include the seed in the crop inventory section.

How to fill in the columns

Deferred income and receivables

Fill in this section if it is relevant to your farm.

Don't fill in this section if you file your income tax on the accrual basis.

Deferred income is income you have chosen to postpone receipt of to the following fiscal period.

A receivable is income that is owed to you, for goods delivered or services provided in this fiscal period, but not paid to you until your next fiscal period.

Deferred income or a receivables must be for income that is allowable for AgriStability. For example, a receivable for the sale of grain is allowable; a receivable for machinery rental is non-allowable. See the program handbook for more information on allowable and non-allowable items.

Enter your AgriInsurance (production/crop insurance) indemnity as a receivable, even if you did not receive your full indemnity before your 2024 fiscal year-end.

How to fill in the columns

Perishable horticulture crops

Enter the sales of the 2024 crop that occurred in the 2025 fiscal year as an ending receivable, once your entire 2024 crop has been marketed and sold.

Use code 4999 to enter your sales and leave the ending receivable blank, if you have not either:

  • marketed your entire 2024 crop
  • received all of your income from your 2024 fiscal period

When you know the ending receivable value, send the information to your Administration. We cannot process your form until you provide this amount.

Accounts payable

Fill in this section if it is relevant to your farm.

Don't fill in this section if you file your income tax on the accrual basis.

An account payable is an expense that you owe for goods and services that you have received but have not paid for in this fiscal period.

An account payable must be for an expense that is allowable for AgriStability. For example, a payable for a livestock purchase is allowable; a payable for building a barn is non-allowable.

Include in your payables any:

  • inputs that you did not pay for yet but were in your inventory at the end of your fiscal period (you must also enter them in the "Purchased inputs" section)
  • feed or livestock that you did not pay for yet but were in your inventory at the end of your fiscal period (you must also enter them in the "Crop inventory valuation and productive capacity" and "Livestock inventory valuation" sections)

Don't include in your payables either:

  • the interest portion of an accounts payable
  • amounts owed for items purchased through loans, lines of credit, or credit cards that have already been reported as an expense on your income tax
