Abstract: The National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) is seeking approval to conduct a reinstatement of an information collection to gather data related to the production and marketing of foods directly from farm producers to consumers, institutions, or to retailers who then sell directly to consumers, and intermediate markets who sell locally or regionally branded products. A sample of operations will be drawn from the NASS List Frame. The Local Food Marketing Practices Survey (LFMPS) will be conducted in early 2026, referencing the calendar year of 2025.
