SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Equine Survey.
OMB Number: 0535–0227.
Expiration Date: 02/28/2007.
Type of Request: Intent to Request
Revision and Extension of a Currently
Approved Information Collection.
Abstract: To improve information
regarding the equine industry, several
State Departments of Agriculture are
expected to contract with the National
Agricultural Statistics Service to
conduct an Equine Survey in their State
within the next 3 years. Equine
activities offer unusually varied
opportunities for rural development. In
addition to providing the livelihood for
breeders, trainers, veterinarians, and
many others, the horse remains
important to recreation. The number of
operations, number of animals, and
economic information will quantify the
importance of the equine industry to
State economies. Income data provides
a view of the benefits that the industry
provides to the State economy and a
ranking of its relative importance within
both the agricultural sector and the
State’s total economic sector. The
expenditure information provides data
regarding the multiplier effect of money
from the equine industry, effects of
wage rates paid to both permanent and
part-time employees, and secondary
businesses supported by the industry.
NASS intends to request that the survey
be approved for 3 years. These data will
be collected under the authority of 7
U.S.C. 2204(a). Individually identifiable
data collected under this authority are
governed by Section 1770 of the Food
Security Act of 1985, 7 U.S.C. 2276,
which requires USDA to afford strict
confidentiality to non-aggregated data
provided by respondents.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting
burden for this collection of information
is estimated to average 30 minutes per
response.
Respondents: Horse owners, breeders,
trainers, boarders.
