Abstract: Data collected under this docket is for a cooperative agreement between the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) and the United States Wheat and Barley Scab Initiative (USWBSI), which is funded by the USDA-Agricultural Research Service (ARS). The purpose of this effort is for NASS and USWBSI to determine the economic factors which influence scab control measures. NASS and USWBSI hope to determine which practices are utilized to control scab with relation to the types of farms that employ those practices. From this analysis, further outreach will be targeted to determine the more efficient use of limited resources.
