This substantive change is being submitted as program changes. Every five years NASS conducts a program review following the completion of the Census of Agriculture. The program changes balance resources across all of the programs included in the annual estimating program, which represents over 400 individual reports across multiple Information Collection Requests (ICRs). This substantive change is to accommodate the vegetable survey program changes that affect this ICR. The methodology, publication dates, and data collection plan do not change as result of these program changes.
