TO: County Crop/Ag Improvement Associations and NDAA

FROM: Paulette Neva, Executive Secretary

SUBJECT: Check-off Reporting Form

DATE: March 25, 1999

It is time once again to collect check-off fees due on last year's new variety allocations. Attached is a copy of the check-off reporting form. This reporting form is a great help to me in keeping records and I request that you use it again this year when submitting payment. The seed increase agreement specifies that the following check-off be collected on each bushel sold as seed and also on any seed kept by the grower for his own planting:

Belzer Durum - $0.84/bu

         

Jud Oats - $0.35/bu

Frontier Pinto Beans - $0.05/lb

Jim & Daksoy Soybeans - $0.95

The increase grower is responsible for the check-off. He should be billed accordingly using the figures above. Please forward 50% of the check-off to the North Dakota Crop Improvement & Seed Association, and 50% shall be retained by the county. Please make checks payable to North Dakota Crop Improvement and Seed Association (NDCISA) and remit to: P.O. Box 5607, University Station, Fargo, ND 58105.

If all or part of seed production was not sold as certified seed or failed certification, we will need a report on that also. If seed was dumped at the elevator, please provide proof of disposal.
