Current definition
A county code of the administering county office. The code is used within the Farm Service Agency (FSA) to identify a county, equivalent entity, or combination thereof within the United States, its possessions, and associated areas as defined within Handbook 1-CM, Exhibit 100. Many of the code values used by are similar to County ANSI/FIPS Code, which follows the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) numeric INCITS 31-2009 and Federal Information Processing Standards Publications (FIPS Pub) 6-4 standard. The expanded even-numbered FSA codes identify counties that contain more than one office due to geographic considerations. Specific values are documented in Handbook 1-CM.

ag:CLUID
Current definition
A system-generated internal identifier of a common land unit (CLU). This identifier is for internal access use only.
A CLU is the smallest unit of land that has a permanent, contiguous boundary, common land cover and land management, a common owner, and a common producer association.
A CLU is closely related to FS's definition of 'fields', according to Handbook 2-CP. A CLU is also closely related to land units such as parcels, farmsteads, and lots that are used by NRCS, RMA and RD.
The authoritative source of CLU Identifier is Farm Records. CLU Identifier can remain constant even if the precise geospatial shape of the CLU is slightly altered.Proposed definition

ag:CropYearValue
Current definition
A period of time (in year) within which the crop is normally grown and designated by the calendar year in which the crop is normally harvested.
For crops:
- Harvested over 2 calendar years, the crop year is the calendar year in which the majority of the crop would have been harvested.
- Grown over more than 2 calendar years, each year in the growing period will be considered as a separate crop year designated by the calendar year in which the crop sustained a loss.
- For which CAT coverage is available, the crop year will be as defined by such coverage.
RMA's regulations define Crop Year as the period within which the insured crop is normally grown, regardless of whether or not it is actually grown, and designated by the calendar year in which the insured crop is normally harvested, unless otherwise specified in the Crop ProvisionsProposed definition

ag:FarmNumberID
Current definition
An identifier assigned to all land under control of a particular operator within a particular county.
Each County assigns Farm Numbers independently. As a result, farms in different counties might be assigned the same Farm Number; i.e, a Farm Number might be unique only within a particular county. Thus, to uniquely identify a farm, the State FSA Code and County FSA Code must be specified in combination with the Farm Number.Proposed definition
