AGRICULTURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT SURVEY
PHASE II
OATS PRODUCTION PRACTICES and COST REPORT
RESPONDENT BOOKLET
2023

National
Agricultural
Statistics
Service

Dear Producer,
Every year, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Agricultural Statistics Service
(NASS) conducts the Agricultural Resource Management Survey (ARMS). The survey
gathers information on production practices for different commodities each year. In 2023,
ARMS focuses on U.S. oats, peanuts, and soybeans production and or cost practices.
The interviewer will ask you to report your nutrient or fertilizer use and your pest
management practices. The results of this survey will help agricultural leaders and decisionmakers better understand how producers cope with risk, adapt to policy changes, and make
decisions about chemical use, new technologies and many other aspects of farming.
Your participation is important. By responding to this survey not only can you help ensure
that decisions impacting the production practices and well-being of farms are based on
accurate, timely information, you also represent and give voice to thousands of farmers like
you across the nation.
As with all our surveys, NASS safeguards the privacy of all respondents, ensuring that no
individual respondent or operation can be identified. Be assured that your responses to
ARMS will be kept confidential, as required by federal law.
Thank you in advance for investing in the future of U.S. agriculture. You are helping to
ensure that decisions affecting you, your family, your business and your community are
based on the facts.
Sincerely,

Chair, Agricultural Statistics Board
U.S. Department of Agriculture
