In addition to disbursing payments, Foremost Farms must obtain adjusted gross income attestations, issue IRS Form 1099-MISC to producers, document proper payment distribution, and provide dairy policy education to eligible farmers. No subrecipient activities are included in this award to Foremost Farms, which aims to assist dairy farmers through USDA's PMVAP program.
