term `entity' means-- ``(i) an organization that (subject to the requirements of this section and section 1001A) is eligible to receive a payment under a provision of law referred to in subsection (b) or (c); ``(ii) a corporation, joint stock company, association, limited partnership, limited liability company, limited liability partnership, charitable organization, estate, irrevocable trust,

`entity' as the term applies to estates, the Secretary shall ensure that fair and equitable treatment is given to estates and the beneficiaries of estates. ``(D) IRREVOCABLE TRUSTS.--In promulgating regulations to define the term `entity' as the term applies to irrevocable trusts, the Secretary shall ensure that irrevocable trusts are legitimate entities that have not been created for the purpose of avoiding a payment limitation. ``(2) INDIVIDUAL.--The term `individual' means-- ``(A) a natural person, and any minor child of the natural person (as determined by the Secretary), who, subject to the requirements of this section and section 1001A, is eligible to receive a payment under a provision of law referred to in subsection (b), (c), or (d); and ``(B) a natural person participating in a farming operation as a partner in a general partnership, a participant in a joint venture, a grantor of a revocable trust, or a participant in a similar entity (as determined by the Secretary).''; (2) by striking subsection (b) and inserting the following: ``(b) Limitation on Direct Payments.--The total amount of direct payments that an individual or entity may receive, directly or indirectly, during any crop year under part I or III of subtitle A of title I of the Food and Energy Security Act of 2007 for 1 or more covered commodities and peanuts, or average crop revenue payments determined under section 1401(b)(2) of that Act, shall not exceed $20,000.''; (3) by striking subsection (c) and inserting the following: ``(c) Limitation on Counter-Cyclical Payments.--The total amount of counter-cyclical payments that an individual or entity may receive, directly or indirectly, during any crop year under part I or III of subtitle A or C of title I of the Food and Energy Security Act of 2007 for 1 or more covered commodities and peanuts, or average crop revenue payments determined under section 1401(b)(3) of that Act, shall not exceed $30,000.''; (4) by striking subsection (d) and inserting the following: ``(d) Limitations on Marketing Loan Gains, Loan Deficiency Payments, and Commodity Certificate Transactions.--The total amount of the following gains and payments that an

peanuts under part II of subtitle A of title I of the Food and Energy Security Act of 2007 at a lower level than the original loan rate established for the loan commodity under that subtitle. ``(B) In the case of settlement of a marketing assistance loan for 1 or more loan commodities and peanuts under that subtitle by forfeiture, the amount by which the loan amount exceeds the repayment amount for the loan if the loan had been settled by repayment instead of forfeiture. ``(2) Any loan deficiency payments received for 1 or more loan commodities and peanuts under that subtitle. ``(3) Any gain realized from the use of a commodity certificate issued by the Commodity Credit Corporation for 1 or more loan commodities and peanuts, as determined by the Secretary, including the use of a certificate for the settlement of a marketing assistance loan made under that subtitle or section 1307 of that Act (7 U.S.C. 7957).''; (5) by striking subsection (e); (6) by redesignating subsections (f) and (g) as subsections (i) and (j), respectively; (7) by inserting after subsection (d) the following: ``(e) Payments to Individuals and Entities.--Notwithstanding, subsections (b) through (d), an individual or entity may receive, directly or indirectly, through all ownership interests of the individual or entity, from all sources, payments or gains (as applicable) for a crop year that shall not exceed an amount equal to twice the applicable dollar amounts specified in subsections (b), (c), and (d). ``(f) Single Farming Operation.--Notwithstanding subsections (b) through (d), if an individual or entity participates only in a single farming operation and receives, directly or indirectly, any payment or gain covered by this section through the farming operation, the total amount of payments or gains (as applicable) covered by this section that the individual or entity may receive during any crop year shall not exceed an amount equal to twice the applicable dollar amounts specified in subsections (b), (c), and (d). ``(g) Spousal Equity.-- ``(1) IN GENERAL.--Notwithstanding subsections (b) through (f), except as provided in paragraph (2), if an individual and the spouse of the individual are covered by paragraph (2) and receive, directly or indirectly, any payment or gain covered by this section, the total amount of payments or gains (as applicable) covered by this section that the individual and spouse may jointly receive during any crop year may not exceed an amount equal to twice the applicable dollar amounts specified in subsections (b), (c), and (d). ``(2) EXCEPTIONS.-- ``(A) SEPARATE FARMING OPERATIONS.--In the case of a married couple in which each spouse, before the marriage, was separately engaged in an unrelated farming operation, each spouse shall be treated as a separate individual with respect to a farming operation brought into the marriage by a spouse, subject to the condition that the farming operation shall remain a separate farming operation, as determined by the Secretary. ``(B) ELECTION TO RECEIVE SEPARATE PAYMENTS.--A married couple may elect to receive payments separately in the name of each spouse if the total amount of payments and benefits described in subsections (b), (c), and (d) that the married couple receives, directly or indirectly, does not exceed an amount equal to twice the applicable dollar amounts specified in those subsections. ``(h) Attribution of Payments.-- ``(1) IN GENERAL.--The Secretary shall issue such regulations as are necessary to ensure that all payments or gains (as applicable) are attributed to an individual by taking into account the direct and indirect ownership interests of the individual in an entity that is eligible to receive such payments or gains (as applicable). ``(2) PAYMENTS TO AN INDIVIDUAL.--Every payment made directly to an individual shall be combined with the individual's pro rata interest in payments received by an entity or entities in which the individual has a direct or indirect ownership interest. ``(3) PAYMENTS TO AN ENTITY.-- ``(A) IN GENERAL.--Every payment or gain (as applicable) made to an entity shall be attributed to those individuals who have a direct or indirect ownership in the entity. ``(B) ATTRIBUTION OF PAYMENTS.-- ``(i) PAYMENT LIMITS.--Except as provided by clause (ii), payments or gains (as applicable) made to an entity shall not exceed twice the amounts specified in subsections (b) through (d). ``(ii) EXCEPTION.--Payments or gains (as applicable) made to a joint venture or a general partnership shall not exceed, for each payment or gain (as applicable) specified in subsections (b) through (d), the amount determined by multiplying twice the maximum payment amount specified in subsections (b), (c), and (d) by the number of individuals and entities (other than joint ventures and general partnerships) that comprise the ownership of the joint venture or general partnership. ``(4) 4 LEVELS OF ATTRIBUTION FOR EMBEDDED ENTITIES.-- ``(A) IN GENERAL.--Attribution of payments or gains (as applicable) made to entities shall be traced through 4 levels of ownership in entities. ``(B) FIRST LEVEL.--Any payments or gains (as applicable) made to an entity (a first-tier entity) that is owned in whole or in part by an individual shall be attributed to the individual in an amount that represents the direct ownership in the first-tier entity by the individual. ``(C) SECOND LEVEL.-- ``(i) IN GENERAL.--Any payments or gains (as applicable) made to a first-tier entity that is owned in whole or in part by another entity (a second-tier entity) shall be attributed to the second-tier entity in proportion to the ownership interest of the second-tier entity in the first-tier entity. ``(ii) OWNERSHIP BY INDIVIDUAL.--If the second-tier entity is owned in whole or in part by an individual, the amount of the payment made to the first-tier entity shall be attributed to the individual in the amount the Secretary determines to represent the indirect ownership in the first-tier entity by the individual. ``(D) THIRD AND FOURTH LEVELS.-- ``(i) IN GENERAL.--Except as provided in clause (ii), the Secretary shall attribute payments or gains (as applicable) at the third and fourth tiers of ownership in the same manner as specified in subparagraph (C). ``(ii) FOURTH-TIER OWNERSHIP BY ENTITY.--If the fourth-tier of ownership is that of a fourth-tier entity, the Secretary shall reduce the amount of the payment to be made to the first-tier entity in the amount that the Secretary determines to represent the indirect ownership in the first-tier entity by the fourth-tier entity.''; and (8) in subsection (i) (as redesignated by paragraph (6)), by striking ``person'' and inserting ``individual or entity''. (b) Substantive Change; Payments Limited to Active Farmers.--Section 1001A of the Food Security Act of 1985 (7 U.S.C. 1308-1) is amended-- (1) by striking the section designation and heading and all that follows through the end of subsection (a) and inserting the following: ``SEC. 1001A.
