(a) A redetermination of crop acreage, appraised yield, or farm-stored production for a farm may be initiated by the county committee, State committee, or Deputy Administrator at any time. Redetermination may be requested by a producer with an interest in the farm if they pay the cost of the redetermination. The request must be submitted to FSA within 15 calendar days after the date of the notice described in Sec.

(i) Five percent or 5 pounds for cotton;
(ii) Five percent or 1 bushel for wheat, barley, oats, and rye; or
(iii) Five percent or 2 bushels for corn and grain sorghum; or
(2) The farm stored production is changed by at least the smaller of 3 percent or 600 bushels; or
(3) The acreage of the crop is:
