Title of Collection: The Second
National Household Food Acquisition
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 135 / Monday, July 15, 2019 / Notices
expected time between FoodAPS–1 and
FoodAPS–2 will be about 11 years,
during which time the structure of the
U.S. food economy will have changed
dramatically. American households get
their food from a large variety of places,
including: Grocery stores, big box stores,
farmers’ markets, food pantries, dine-in
restaurants, fast food restaurants,
schools, online retailers, and other food
outlets. Food acquisition behaviors have
changed in response to changing
markets, household structure, labor
force participation, and other factors.
There is special interest in food demand
among low-income households. At some
point during each year, about 1 in 4
Americans participate in at least one of
USDA’s 15 domestic food and nutrition
assistance programs. To evaluate the
efficiency of the programs, USDA needs
to better understand the food
acquisition behavior of program
participants compared to low-income,
program-eligible, non-participating
households. Neighborhoods that lack
access to healthy and affordable food
have been of particular concern for
USDA. To this end, USDA needs
current, accurate data on household
food acquisitions, food insecurity, food
prices, and the availability of healthful
and less-healthful foods.
The main objective of the Field Test
is to test the final design and procedures
for the Full Survey data collection.
Specifically, the Field Test will evaluate
the following: A mail screener to reduce
in-person screening; enhancements to
the data collection instruments that
assess drivers of food acquisition
behavior; a new native smartphone
application (to reduce respondent
burden); an alternative web-based Food
Log using a barcode scanner, for
households who are unable to use the
smartphone app; a telephone mode
option for households who are unable to
use either the smartphone app or the
web-based method; and targeted
telephone follow-up calls to encourage
Food Log reporting throughout the 7day period.
All recruited households will receive
$40 upon completion of the Initial
Interview and Food Log training.
Similarly, all households will
accumulate a $5 per day credit for each
eligible household member who reports
and Purchase Survey (FoodAPS–2)
Field Test.
OMB Control Number: To be assigned
by OMB.
Expiration Date: Three years from the
date of approval.
Type of Request: New information
collection.
Abstract: The Field Test for
FoodAPS–2, also known as the National
Food Study to respondents in the field,
will be conducted over a four-month
period from January 2021 to April 2021.
The Field Test will collect data from up
to 4,000 households, including
households participating in the
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance
Program (SNAP, formerly the Food
Stamp Program) and the Special
Supplemental Nutrition Program for
Women, Infants, and Children (WIC).
Each participating household will be
asked to log the foods they get over a 7day period.
FoodAPS–2 data are necessary to
understand Americans’ food and
nutrition choices, the drivers of these
choices, and how the government can
improve administration of public
programs at reasonable cost to better the
health and well-being of the American
population. The data will reveal precise
and detailed information on: (1) Food
purchased for preparation at home and
away from home; (2) food people get for
free; (3) food that each member of the
household gets; (4) the nutrient content
of food items people get; (5) the cost of
these foods and how people pay for
them (e.g., cash, credit or debit, program
benefits, coupons and discounts); (6)
market, demographic, policy and
program characteristics of local areas
where people get their food; (7)
household characteristics, including
income, participation in Federal food
assistance programs, food security, and
health status; and (8) the complex
interrelationship between food,
nutrition, economics, program
participation, food environments, and
health.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA) collected similar data in 2012–
2013 with the first National Household
Food Acquisition and Purchase Survey
(FoodAPS–1, OMB Control Number
0536–0068). (See the results at https://
www.ers.usda.gov/foodaps). The
both their food purchases and the food
they get for free (including affirmation
of no food acquisitions). $2 will be
provided to each household member
who completes the Income Worksheet
(available online) and another $2 per
person for completing the Profile
Questionnaire (available online and via
the app). An additional $16 incentive
will be provided to the primary
respondent after completion of a
Debriefing Interview at the end of the
reporting period.
In addition, two incentive
experiments are embedded in the Field
Test. The first incentive experiment
varies the amount of a prepaid incentive
included in the mail screener ($2 vs.
none). The second experiment varies the
amount of a promised incentive upon
completing the in-person screener ($5
vs. none). The final incentive scheme
for the Full Survey will be determined
by the results of Field Test.
Responses will be combined for
statistical purposes and reported only in
aggregate or statistical form. Because
this is a field test for the full-scale
FoodAPS–2 data collection, there are no
plans to make the collected data
available to the public. The data will be
analyzed and used to finalize design
and data collection protocol for the Full
Survey.
Authority: Legislative authority for
the planned data collection is Section
17 (a) (1) of the Food and Nutrition Act
of 2008 (7 U.S.C. 2026). This section
authorizes the Secretary to undertake
research that will help improve the
administration and effectiveness of
programs providing nutrition benefits.
Confidentiality: All respondent
information collected during the Field
Test will be protected under the statute
of the Confidential Information
Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act
of 2002 (CIPSEA), (Title V of Pub. L.
107–347).
Type of Respondents: Individuals and
households.
Estimate of Burden: The estimated
total number of respondents for this
study is 4,000 contacted households and
4,650 responding individuals. The
estimated total annual burden on
respondents is 3,299 hours.

Title of Collection: The Second National Household Food Acquisition
[[Page 33736]]
and Purchase Survey (FoodAPS-2) Field Test.
OMB Control Number: To be assigned by OMB.
Expiration Date: Three years from the date of approval.
Type of Request: New information collection.
Abstract: The Field Test for FoodAPS-2, also known as the National
Food Study to respondents in the field, will be conducted over a four-
month period from January 2021 to April 2021. The Field Test will
collect data from up to 4,000 households, including households
participating in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP,
formerly the Food Stamp Program) and the Special Supplemental Nutrition
Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC). Each participating
household will be asked to log the foods they get over a 7-day period.
FoodAPS-2 data are necessary to understand Americans' food and
nutrition choices, the drivers of these choices, and how the government
can improve administration of public programs at reasonable cost to
better the health and well-being of the American population. The data
will reveal precise and detailed information on: (1) Food purchased for
preparation at home and away from home; (2) food people get for free;
(3) food that each member of the household gets; (4) the nutrient
content of food items people get; (5) the cost of these foods and how
people pay for them (e.g., cash, credit or debit, program benefits,
coupons and discounts); (6) market, demographic, policy and program
characteristics of local areas where people get their food; (7)
household characteristics, including income, participation in Federal
food assistance programs, food security, and health status; and (8) the
complex interrelationship between food, nutrition, economics, program
participation, food environments, and health.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) collected similar data in
2012-2013 with the first National Household Food Acquisition and
Purchase Survey (FoodAPS-1, OMB Control Number 0536-0068). (See the
results at https://www.ers.usda.gov/foodaps). The expected time between
FoodAPS-1 and FoodAPS-2 will be about 11 years, during which time the
structure of the U.S. food economy will have changed dramatically.
American households get their food from a large variety of places,
including: Grocery stores, big box stores, farmers' markets, food
pantries, dine-in restaurants, fast food restaurants, schools, online
retailers, and other food outlets. Food acquisition behaviors have
changed in response to changing markets, household structure, labor
force participation, and other factors. There is special interest in
food demand among low-income households. At some point during each
year, about 1 in 4 Americans participate in at least one of USDA's 15

The main objective of the Field Test is to test the final design
and procedures for the Full Survey data collection. Specifically, the
Field Test will evaluate the following: A mail screener to reduce in-
person screening; enhancements to the data collection instruments that
assess drivers of food acquisition behavior; a new native smartphone
application (to reduce respondent burden); an alternative web-based
Food Log using a barcode scanner, for households who are unable to use
the smartphone app; a telephone mode option for households who are
unable to use either the smartphone app or the web-based method; and
targeted telephone follow-up calls to encourage Food Log reporting
throughout the 7-day period.
All recruited households will receive $40 upon completion of the
Initial Interview and Food Log training. Similarly, all households will
accumulate a $5 per day credit for each eligible household member who
reports both their food purchases and the food they get for free
(including affirmation of no food acquisitions). $2 will be provided to
each household member who completes the Income Worksheet (available
online) and another $2 per person for completing the Profile
Questionnaire (available online and via the app). An additional $16
incentive will be provided to the primary respondent after completion
of a Debriefing Interview at the end of the reporting period.
In addition, two incentive experiments are embedded in the Field
Test. The first incentive experiment varies the amount of a prepaid
incentive included in the mail screener ($2 vs. none). The second
experiment varies the amount of a promised incentive upon completing
the in-person screener ($5 vs. none). The final incentive scheme for
the Full Survey will be determined by the results of Field Test.
Responses will be combined for statistical purposes and reported
only in aggregate or statistical form. Because this is a field test for
the full-scale FoodAPS-2 data collection, there are no plans to make
the collected data available to the public. The data will be analyzed
and used to finalize design and data collection protocol for the Full
Survey.
Authority: Legislative authority for the planned data collection is
Section 17 (a) (1) of the Food and Nutrition Act of 2008 (7 U.S.C.
2026). This section authorizes the Secretary to undertake research that
will help improve the administration and effectiveness of programs
providing nutrition benefits.
Confidentiality: All respondent information collected during the
Field Test will be protected under the statute of the Confidential
Information Protection and Statistical Efficiency Act of 2002 (CIPSEA),
(Title V of Pub. L. 107-347).
Type of Respondents: Individuals and households.
Estimate of Burden: The estimated total number of respondents for
this study is 4,000 contacted households and 4,650 responding
individuals. The estimated total annual burden on respondents is 3,299
hours.
