the collection of information unless it

National Agricultural Statistics Service
Title: List Sampling Frame Survey.
OMB Control Number: 0535–0140.
Summary of Collection: The primary
objective of the National Agricultural
Statistics Service (NASS) is to provide
data users with timely and reliable
agricultural production and economic
statistics, as well as environmental and
specialty agricultural related statistics.
To accomplish this objective, NASS
relies heavily on the use of sample
surveys statistically drawn from ‘‘List
Sampling Frame.’’ The List Sampling
Frame is a database of names and
addresses, with control data, that
contains the components from which
these samples can be drawn.
Need and Use of the Information: The
List Sampling Frame is used to maintain
as complete a list as possible of farm
operations. The goal is to produce for
each state a relatively complete, current,
and unduplicated list of names to
sample for agricultural operation
surveys. Government agencies and
educational institutions use information
from these surveys in planning, farm
policy analysis, and program
administration.
Description of Respondents: Farms;
Business or other for-profit.
Number of Respondents: 350,000.
Frequency of Responses: Reporting:
On occasion.
Total Burden Hours: 55,000.
