Abstract: This substantive change was requested by The Minnesota Department of Agriculture for 1) updates to the Minnesota Best Management Practices Survey based in results of the 2021 survey to simplify questions for respondent and better match future data needs, and 2) additional questions on irrigation and the use of nitrogen inhibitor/stabilizer to the annual Pesticide and Fertilizer Survey. These changes result in no change in burden.
