Corn Assessment Refund Request Form PDF Details

Missouri corn producers who have had the corn assessment fee deducted from a grain sale can claim a refund through the Missouri Department of Agriculture’s Commodity Fund Program. The Corn Assessment Refund Request form is the official document for this process. Producers must submit the completed form with supporting settlement sheets attached within 60 days of the assessment deduction date.

Who Is Eligible to Claim a Corn Assessment Refund?

Any corn producer in Missouri who sold corn and had the corn assessment fee withheld by the first purchaser is eligible to apply. The first purchaser, such as a grain elevator or grain dealer, deducts the assessment at the time of the transaction. If you sold corn and a fee was taken from your payment, you may file a refund claim using the Corn Assessment Refund Request form.

Information and Documents Required

Before filling out the form, gather the following:

• Your full name and mailing address
• The first purchaser’s name and contact information
• Date of the corn sale
• Number of bushels sold
• Total corn assessment fee amount deducted
• Settlement sheets verifying the sale details

Settlement sheets must be attached to the form as supporting documentation. All information on the form is certified by the producer under penalty of perjury, so accuracy is essential when completing the request.

How to Submit the Corn Assessment Refund Request

1. Complete all required fields on the Corn Assessment Refund Request form accurately.
2. Sign and date the certification section.
3. Attach copies of the relevant settlement sheets to the completed form.
4. Mail the full package to the Missouri Department of Agriculture’s Commodity Fund Program no later than 60 days after the assessment was deducted.

Missing the 60-day deadline forfeits the refund for that transaction. Keep copies of all submitted documents for your records.
