Exemptions Applicable to Agriculture, Processing of Agricultural Commodities, and Related Subjects Under the Fair Labor Standards Act

Subpart I

Employment in Ginning of Cotton and Processing of Sugar Beets, Sugar-Beet Molasses, Sugarcane, or Maple Sap into Sugar or Syrup; Exemption From Overtime Pay Requirements Under Section 13(b)(15)

• Section Number: 780.813
• Section Name: ``County where cotton is grown.''

    For the exemption to apply, the employee must be ginning cotton in a 
place of employment in a county where cotton ``is grown'' in the 
described quantities. It is the cotton grown, not
the cotton ginned in the place of employment, to which the quantity test 
is applicable. The quantities of cotton ginned in the county do not 
matter, so long as the requisite quantities are grown there.
