Summary of Collection: The National
Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) is
responsible for conducting the Census
of Agriculture under the authority of the
Census of Agriculture Act of 1997,
Public Law 105–113. The census of
agriculture is required by law every five
years and is the primary source of
statistics concerning the nation’s
agricultural industry. It provides the
only basis of consistent, comparable
data throughout the more than 3,000
counties in the 50 States and Puerto
Rico. For the outlying areas of American
Samoa, Commonwealth of the Northern
Mariana Islands, Guam and U.S. Virgin
Islands, it is the only source of
consistent, comparable agricultural data.
Need and Use of the Information: The
data collection for the censuses of
agriculture for the 50 states and Puerto
Rico will be conducted primarily by
mail-out/mail-back procedures (US
Postal Service), internet, and with
phone and field enumeration for
targeted non-respondents. Data
collection for Guam, the U.S. Virgin
Islands, Commonwealth of the Northern
Mariana Islands and American Samoa
will be conducted using direct
enumeration methods only. The census
provides data on the number and types
of farms, land use, crop area and
selected production, livestock inventory
and sales, production contracts,
production expenses, farm-related
income, and other demographic
characteristics. This information will
serve as the basis for many
agriculturally-based decisions. Census
