Census of Horticultural Specialties – Pre-Testing
Generic Clearance of Survey Improvement Projects (0535-0248)
The National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) is preparing to conduct testing of the Census of Horticultural Specialties survey. NASS will be conducting both cognitive interviews and a mail out – mail back testing. The two different methods of testing are scheduled to be conducted in seven States (CA, FL, IL, MI, NC, PA and TX). The test States were selected due to the diversity of horticultural products produced in the different regions of the country. The cognitive testing involves conducting 3 to 5 interviews in each of the States and the mail test involves contacting 15 to 20 respondents in the test States.
