The NASS research study referenced in the supporting statements is experimental and is intended to assess the impact of including SOGI and Disability questions on survey response rates and measurement error associated with different modes of administration. The findings will inform whether and how to include these questions on the 2027 NACS. These modified survey documents will be included in a substantive change request.

This is a reinstatement of the Census of Agriculture along with some of the associated surveys.
Since the Census of Agriculture information collection is a reinstatement, there is no current inventory of burden hours. From the calculations in item 12 an estimated 3,276,166 burden hours will be needed. Non-response burden is included in this calculation. The supplemental attachments contain an overview of the changes made to questionnaire content from the 2017 Census of Agriculture.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding the proposed collection of information, that the certification covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked and explain the reason in the Supporting Statement.
