potential persons who are to respond to
the collection of information that such
persons are not required to respond to
the collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid OMB control
number.
Title: Export Sales of U.S. Agricultural
Commodities.
OMB Control Number: 0551–0007.
Summary of Collection: The
information collection requirements
contained in 7 CFR part 20 are
necessary to implement the mandatory
export sales reporting requirements of
§ 602 of the Agricultural Trade Act of
1978, as amended (7 U.S.C. 5712). The
export sales reporting system provides
commodity market participants with
information about commodity export
commitments, and is one means by
which USDA seeks to insure fairness
and soundness in commodity
marketing. U.S. exports are required to
report to the Foreign Agricultural
Service (FAS) information on: (1) The
quantity of a reportable commodity to
be sold to a foreign buyer; (2) the
country of destination; and (3) the
marketing year of shipment.
Need and Use of the Information: The
collected information is needed because
it provides up-to-date market data for
making rational export policy decisions
to prevent market disruptions. FAS
reports the information to the public so
that all market participants can be aware
of such sales and can evaluate the
effects of exports on supply and demand
estimates of production, prices, and
sales. If the information is not collected,
the Department would not be in
compliance with the statutes and not
fulfilling the objectives of the export
sales reporting program.
Description of Respondents: Business
or other for-profit.
