The purpose of this survey is to determine prices paid by farmers for sunflower seed. Data from this survey are used to compute the Index of Prices Paid By Farmers. This Index is used for measuring price trends and the purchasing power of agricultural producers. Your firm is included in a small sample and your report is needed to insure accurate estimates. 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.

According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a valid OMB control number. The valid OMB control number is 0535-0003. The time required to complete this information collection is estimated to average 10 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information.

Please mail your report promptly in the enclosed postage paid envelope. Thank you for your cooperation.
