Title: Livestock and Meat Market
Reports.
OMB Number: 0581–0154.
Expiration Date of Approval: 04–29–
2011.
Type of Request: Extension and
revision of a currently approved
information collection.
Abstract: The Agricultural Marketing
Act of 1946 (7 U.S.C. 1621–1627) directs
and authorizes the collection and
dissemination of marketing information
including adequate outlook information,
on a market area basis, for the purpose
of anticipating and meeting consumer
requirements aiding in the maintenance
of farm income and to bring about a
balance between production and
utilization.
Under this market news program,
AMS issues market news reports
covering the livestock and meat trade,
which encompasses a wide range of
industry contacts, including packers,
processors, producers, brokers, and
retailers. These reports are compiled on
a voluntary basis, in cooperation with
the livestock and meat industry. The
information provided by respondents
initiates market news reporting, which
must be timely, accurate, unbiased, and
continuous if it is to be meaningful to
the industry. The livestock and meat
industry requested that AMS issue
livestock and meat market reports in
order to assist them in making informed
production and marketing decisions. In
addition, several Government agencies
that purchase meat for various Federal
programs use this data in making their
purchasing decisions. The information
must be collected, compiled, and
disseminated by an impartial thirdparty, in a manner which protects the
confidentiality of the reporting entity.
AMS is in the best position to provide
this service.
Estimate of Burden: Public reporting
burden for this collection of information
is estimated at .0833 hours per response.
Respondents: Business or other forprofit, individuals or households, farms,
and the Federal Government.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
990.
Estimated Total Annual Responses:

including whether the information will
have practical utility; (2) the accuracy of
the Agency’s estimate of the burden of
