the Forest Service in fire control and other authorized programs.

The forestry related supply and support services include:

Equipment services which own, operate, maintain, replace, and repair common use motor driven and similar equipment. This equipment is rented to administrative units, that is, National Forests, research experiment stations, and other units, and in some cases to the other agencies, at rates which recover the cost of operation, repair and maintenance, management, and depreciation. The rates also include an increment which provides additional cash which, when added to depreciation earnings and the residual value of equipment, provides sufficient funds to replace the equipment.

Aircraft services which operate, maintain, and repair Forest Service owned aircraft used in fire surveillance and suppression and in other Forest Service programs. The aircraft are rented to National Forests, research experiment stations, and in some cases to other agencies, at rates which recover the cost of depreciation, operation, maintenance, repair, and improvements in the airworthiness of the aircraft. Aircraft replacement costs are financed from either appropriated funds or the Forest Service Working Capital Fund, or a combination of both.

Supply services operate the following common services:

Photo reproduction laboratories which store, reproduce, and supply aerial photographs, aerial maps, and other photographs of National Forest lands. The photographic reproductions are sold to National Forests, experiment stations, and others at cost.

Sign shops which manufacture and supply special signs for the National Forests for use in regulating traffic and as information to the public and other users of the National Forests. The signs are sold to National Forests and experiment stations at cost.

Subsistence which prepare and serve meals to Forest Service crews working in areas where adequate public restaurant facilities are not available.

Seed supply which provides tree seed for direct seeding or sowing in nurseries for the production of trees. Includes purchase or collection of cones, extraction of seeds, cleaning and testing, and storage and delivery. Operates in conjunction with tree nurseries.

Tree nurseries which operate forest tree nurseries and cold storage facilities for storage of tree seedlings. Tree seedlings are sold to National Forests, State foresters, and other cooperators at cost.

(3) Payments made available to each eligible producer shall not exceed $100,000 for all crops (without regard to other limitations in farm program payments) and shall be determined for each crop of such commodities by multiplying

(A) the payment rate; by

(B) the loss of production of the eligible producer.

(4)(A) Except for sugar beets and sugar cane, the payment rate shall be equal to the level of price support established for the crop of the commodity for the farm.

(B) For purposes of determining the payment rate for sugar beets and sugar cane, the Secretary shall establish a payment rate which is fair and reasonable in relation to the level of price support which is established for the 1986 crop of sugar beets and sugar cane.

(5)(A) The loss of production of the eligible producer shall be the quantity of wheat, feed grains, cotton, rice, soybeans, sugar beets and sugar cane or peanuts that eligible producers on a farm are unable to harvest due to reduced yields or are prevented from planting to such commodity or other nonconserving crops due to drought, excessive heat, floods, hail or excessive moisture in 1986. Such loss of production of the eligible producer for each such crop shall be the difference between

(i) The result determined by multiplying (1) 50 per centum of the farm program payment yield established for the crop of the commodity, by (II) the sum of the acreage of such crop planted to harvest and the acreage for which prevented planted credit is approved by the Secretary; and

(ii) The actual production on the farm of such crop of the commodity if such quantity is less than the quantity determined in accordance with clause (i).

(B) The sum of the acreage determined in accordance with paragraph (5)AXiXII) shall not exceed

(i) with respect to wheat, feed grains, upland cotton, or rice, the 1986 permitted acreage determined for such crop of the commodity; and

(ii) with respect to soybeans, peanuts, sugar beets and sugar cane, the acreage so affected but not to exceed the acreage planted in the immediately preceding year to soybeans or peanuts, respectively, for harvest including any acreage that the producer was prevented from planting to such commodity or to other nonconserving crops in lieu of soybeans or peanuts because of drought, excessive moisture, flood, hail, or other natural disaster, or other condition beyond the control of the producer. (6) Payments determined in accordance with paragraph (3) with respect to any producer with crop insurance shall be reduced to the extent the amount determined by adding the total amount of crop insurance indemnity payments (gross indemnity less premium paid) received by the producer for the loss of production of each crop of such commodities on the farm and the payment determined in accordance with paragraphs (3) through (5) exceeds the amount determined by multiplying

(A)(i) the quantity determined by multiplying 100 percent of the farm program payment yield established for each crop of such commodities by (ii) the sum of the acreage of each such crop planted to harvest and the acreage for which prevented planted credit is approved by the Secretary (the total not to exceed the quantity determined in accordance with subparagraph (5XB)); by (B) the payment rate for each crop of the commodity. (7) The total amount of payments made under paragraph (3) to producers on a farm with respect to each crop of such commodities and the total amount of price support loans and purchases (and program benefits for sugar beets and sugar cane) made with respect to such crop on such farm may not exceed the amount determined by multiplying

(A) The farm program payment yield for the crop of the commodity; by

(B) The sum of (i) the acreage of the crop of the commodity planted for harvest and (ii) the acreage for which prevented planted credit is approved by the Secretary, but for each such crop such sum shall not exceed the quantity determined in accordance with subparagraph (5)B); by

(C) The payment rate for each crop of the commodity.

(i) a loss of production of quota peanuts from a farm as otherwise determined under paragraph (5) shall be reduced by the quantity of peanut poundage quota which was the basis of such anticipated production which has been transferred from the farm; and

(ii) payments made under this subsection shall be taken into account whether the lost production for which the loss of production is claimed was a loss of production of quota or additional peanuts and the payment rate shall be established accordingly. Further, notwithstanding any other provision of law, the amount of undermarketings of quota peanuts from a farm for the 1986 crop that may otherwise be claimed under section 358 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938 for purposes of future quota increases shall be reduced by the quantity of lost production of such peanuts for which payment has been received under this subsection.

(9) The disaster payments required by this section shall be made in the form of generic, negotiable commodity certificates redeemable from stocks of commodities held by the Commodity Credit Corpora

tion.

(bx1) notwithstanding any other provision of this section for the 1986 crop year, the Secretary of Agriculture shall utilize certificates redeemable from stocks of commodities held by the Commodity Credit Corporation, for the purpose of making disaster payments to producers of nonprogram crops, in counties in which producers became eligible subsequent to July 1, 1986, to receive disaster emergency loans under section 321 of the Consolidated Farm and Rural Development Act (7 U.S.C. 1961) as the result of drought, excessive heat, flood, hail, or excessive moisture, and
