approximately 20,000 crop farmers who
rely on honey bees to pollinate their
fruit, nut, vegetable, and other crops.
NASS will conduct the annual survey
using a mail and internet approach. This
will be followed up with phone and
personal enumeration for nonrespondents. NASS will attempt to
obtain at least an 80% response rate.
Respondents: Farmers.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
20,000.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on

Abstract: The primary objective of the
National Agricultural Statistics Service
is to prepare and issue State and
national estimates of crop and livestock
production, prices, and disposition. The
Mink Survey collects data on the
number of mink pelts produced, the
number of females bred, and the number
of mink farms. Mink estimates are used
by the federal government to calculate
total value of sales and total cash
receipts, by State governments to
administer fur farm programs and health
regulations, and by universities in
research projects. The current expiration
date for this docket is November 30,
2018. NASS intends to request that the
Mink Survey be approved for another 3
years.
Authority: 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 as amended, 7
U.S.C. 2276, which requires USDA to
afford strict confidentiality to nonaggregated data provided by
respondents. This Notice is submitted in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, Public Law 104–
13 (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.), and Office
of Management and Budget regulations
at 5 CFR part 1320.

Estimate of Burden: Public reporting
burden for this collection of information
is estimated to average 10 minutes per
response for the producers and
approximately 30 minutes per response
for the buyers. NASS plans to mail out
publicity materials with the
questionnaires to inform operators of
the importance of these surveys. NASS
will also use multiple mailings,
followed up with phone and personal
enumeration to increase response rates
and to minimize data collection costs.
Respondents: Farmers and ranchers.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
300.
Estimated Total Annual Burden on
Respondents: 85 hours.
