The agricultural income benefit is incompatible with:

• Any type of income which, on an annual basis, exceeds the statutory minimum wage (SMI) in force, excluding additional annual payments.
• The receipt of other unemployment benefits or allowances, or the active insertion income scheme.
• Social Security pensions or financial benefits that are incompatible with employment, or which, although compatible, exceed the annual statutory minimum wage, excluding extra payments.
• Where the applicant or their spouse is the owner, tenant, sharecropper or holder under a similar arrangement of agricultural holdings whose annual income exceeds the statutory minimum wage in force, excluding extra payments.
• Simultaneously carrying out paid employment, whether self‑employed or employed. However, where provided for under employment promotion programmes, agricultural income beneficiaries aged over 52 may voluntarily combine it with paid employment, under the following conditions:
  • If the job falls under the Special Agricultural System of the Social Security (SEASS), the State Public Employment Service will pay 50% of the agricultural income benefit and 50% of the fixed SEASS contribution.
  • If the job falls under a different scheme, only 50% of the agricultural income benefit will be paid.
  • If the job requires a change of residence (within Andalusia and Extremadura), payment of three months of the agricultural income benefit may be requested as a lump sum.
