Objective Yield Surveys

OMB 0535-0088

The National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) requests approval for non-substantive change to NASS’s Confidentiality Pledge. In the summer of 2025, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) requested that NASS update its confidentiality pledge. This change to NASS Confidentiality Pledge would affect all surveys conducted under NASS’s 34 active Information Collections (ICs). Current Language: “Your responses will be kept confidential and any person who willfully discloses ANY identifiable information about you or your operation is subject to a jail term, a fine, or both.” Proposed Revision: “Your responses will be kept confidential and any person who willfully discloses ANY identifiable information about you or your operation without your consent is subject to a jail term, a fine, or both.”

The latest form for Objective Yield Surveys expires 2027-06-30 and can be found here.
