Abstract: AFIDA requires foreign
persons who hold, acquire, or dispose of
any interest in U.S. agricultural land to
report the transactions to FSA on an
AFIDA report (FSA–153). The
information collected is made available
to States. Also, although not required by
law, the information collected from the
AFIDA reports is used to prepare an
annual report to Congress and the
President concerning the effect of
foreign investment upon family farms
and rural communities so that Congress
may review the annual report and
decide if further regulatory action is
required.
Estimate of Average Time to Respond:
0.476 hours per response.
Respondents: Foreign investors,
corporate employees, attorneys, or farm
managers.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
5,525.
Estimated Number of Responses per
Respondent: 1.
Estimated Number of Responses:
5,525.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 2,631.25 hours.
We are requesting comments on all
aspects of this information collection to
help us to:
(1) Determine whether the continued
collection of information is still
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the FSA, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(2) Assess the accuracy of the FSA’s
estimate of burden including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used;
(3) Enhance the quality, utility and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
(4) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
All comments received in response to

That section also authorizes transfers of
security property, as the Secretary
deems necessary, to carry out the

condemnations. The information
collection relates to a program benefit
recipient or loan borrower requesting
action on security they own, which was
purchased with FSA loan funds,
improved with FSA loan funds or has
otherwise been mortgaged to FSA to
secure a Government loan. The
information collected is primarily
financial data not already on file, such
as borrower asset values, current
financial information and public use
and employment data.

reporting burden for this collection of
information is estimated to average .63
hours per response.
