Business & farm

No, the QBI loss is only included in how much QBI deduction you will receive when you start reporting income from the farm (instead of loss).  For example:

 

     2021                                                                                                           2022

w2 wages = 100,000                                                                                w2 wages = 100,000

sch F loss = -40,000    QBI loss = -40,000                                              sch F inc =     50,000  QBI = 50,000

AGI = 60,000                                                                                              AGI = 150,000

Std Ded = 25,900                                                                                      Std Ded = 25,900

QBI Ded = 0                                                                                               QBI Ded = 2,000 (20% of total QBI $10,000 (50,000 - 40,000)  - the loss reduces your deduction)

Taxable Inc = 34,100                                                                                 Taxable Inc = 122,100

 

So, while they both do reduce your income you are not double counting the loss.  If in my example, the QBI loss carryover from 2021 had contained multiple years and been in the $100,000 range (from your first post), the $50,000 of QBI in 2022 would have reduced the QBI loss carryover to $50,000 and there would still be no QBI deduction because the loss eliminated all QBI.
