Sec. 729.211  Determination of farm yields.

    (a) Farm yield--(1) Quota farm in previous year. The farm yield for 
the current year for a farm that was a quota farm in the previous year 
shall be the same as the farm yield established for the farm in the 
previous year.
    (2) Nonquota farm. If a farm was a nonquota farm in the year 
preceding the current year and such farm becomes a quota farm in the 
current year, a farm yield shall be determined by the county committee 
if a farm yield has not been established previously for such farm. Such 
farm yield shall be determined on a fair and reasonable basis by the 
county committee after considering the farm yields that have been 
established on other similar farms in the same locality.
    (b) Reconstituted farms. For reconstituted farms, the farm yield for 
such farm shall be:
    (1) Combination of quota farms. For combined quota farms, the 
weighted

average of the farm yields for the tracts being combined.
    (2) Combinations of quota and nonquota farms. For a combination of a 
quota and nonquota farm, the farm yield of the tract(s) with an 
established quota, even though a farm yield had been previously 
established for such nonquota tract(s).
    (3) Combination of nonquota farms. For a combination of a nonquota 
farm, established by the county committee in the same manner as for 
farms under paragraph (a)(2) of this section, even though a farm yield 
had been previously established for the individual tracts.
    (4) Divisions. For tracts resulting from the division of a farm, the 
same farm for each tract that results from the division as the farm 
yield for the parent farm, except that should one or more tracts within 
the divided farm have a previously established farm yield, the farm 
yield for such tract(s) shall be that previously established for such 
tract(s).
