How will the data be used?
Survey data will be used to help associations, businesses, and policymakers advocate for your operation and the organic agriculture sector for the next several years. This information is used by all sectors of the industry to inform sound and timely business decisions.
The information you provide will be used for statistical purposes only. This survey is part of the Census of Agriculture Program, and as such is required by law (Title 7 USC 2204(g) Public Law 105-113). These federal laws also require that NASS keeps your identity and your answers confidential. We will publish the data October 30, 2026, in the Quick Stats database at quickstats.nass.usda.gov.
Thank you for your participation and support of U.S. agriculture. For more information about the Organic Survey, visit nass.usda.gov/AgCensus. If you need assistance, please contact us at 888-424-7828.
