Specifically, data from this survey are used for: 1) Evaluation of Farm policy and legislation, 2) Updating cost of production estimates used in determination of net farm income , 3) Computation of Parity Prices for selected agricultural commodities. Under Title 7 of the U.S. Code and CIPSEA (Public Law 107-347), facts about your operation are kept confidential and used only for statistical purposes in combination with similar reports from other producers. Response is voluntary. However, your cooperation is very important in order to estimate these prices accurately. Please mail your report promptly in the enclosed postage paid envelope.
