If you have already responded, thank you. If we do not receive your response by February 6, we may follow-up with you to collect this information.


How will the data be used?


Shape6 Your input will help tell the story of U.S. agriculture. The Census of Agriculture is the only source of comprehensive agricultural data for every state and county in the nation. The data are widely used to inform decisions that benefit you and your community – from decisions guiding succession planning and new and beginning farmer programs to decisions impacting agriculture practices, land stewardship, and sustainability.


What else do I need to know?


If you are not currently farming, please respond so we can update our records accordingly. The online questionnaire will take you through a few quick questions then straight to the end. If you are responding by mail, please make a note on the front of the questionnaire and mail it back to us.


All information you provide is confidential, protected by federal law (Title V, Subtitle A, Public Law 107–347). If you need assistance completing the census, call toll-free (888) 424-7828. For more information about the Census of Agriculture, visit www.nass.usda.gov/AgCensus.


Thank you for taking part in the Census of Agriculture program and for your support of U.S. agriculture. The Census of Agriculture is Your Voice. Your Future. Your Opportunity.


Sincerely,

Hubert Hamer

Administrator, National Agricultural Statistics Service
