Self-Employed Farmer

To be considered a self-employed farmer, a person must receive, or expect to receive, an annual gross income of one thousand dollars ($1,000) or more earned from farming activities. If a farmer’s cost of producing self-employment income results in a loss, the Department subtracts the loss from other countable income in the household under 7 CFR 273.11(a)(2)(ii)(A) and (B).
