Title: National Agroforestry Survey.
OMB Control Number: 0535–NEW.

Jkt 253001
Summary of Collection: The primary
objective of the National Agricultural
Statistics Service (NASS) is to collect,
prepare and issue State and national
estimates of crop and livestock
production, prices, and disposition; as
well as economic statistics,
environmental statistics related to
agriculture and also to conduct the
Census of Agriculture.
The survey will collect data whether
the operator uses any of five agroforestry
practices typically used for
conservation: Windbreaks, Silvopasture,
Riparian Forest Buffers, Alley Cropping,
as well as Forest Farming & Multi-story
Cropping.
Windbreaks are linear plantings of
trees and shrubs designed to provide
economic, environmental and
community benefits. The primary
purpose of most windbreaks is to slow
the wind which creates a more
beneficial condition for soils, crops,
livestock, wildlife and people.
Silvopasture is the deliberate integration
of trees and grazing livestock operations
on the same land. These systems are
intensively managed for both forest
products and forage, providing both
short- and long-term income sources.
A riparian forest buffer is an area
adjacent to a stream, lake, or wetland
that contains a combination of trees,
shrubs, and/or other perennial plants
and is managed differently from the
surrounding landscape, primarily to
provide conservation benefits.
Forest farming is the cultivation of
high-value crops under the protection of
a managed tree canopy. In some parts of
the world, this is called multi-story
cropping and when used on a small
scale in the tropics it is sometimes
called home gardening.
Alley cropping is defined as the
planting of rows of trees and/or shrubs
to create alleys within which
agricultural or horticultural crops are
produced. The trees may include
valuable hardwood veneer or lumber
species; fruit, nut or other specialty crop
trees/shrubs; or desirable softwood
species for wood fiber production.
Need and Use of the Information:
NASS would plan and conduct the
survey and deliver access to a dataset or
responses to approved staff from USDAForestry Service, who will publish the
results of the survey. This project is
conducted as a cooperative effort with
the U. S. Department of Agriculture’s
Forestry Service—National Agroforestry
Center. Funding for this survey is being
provided by the U.S. Department of
Agriculture’s Forestry Service—National
Agroforestry Center.

SUMMARY: As a result of this sunset
review, the Department of Commerce
(Commerce) finds that revocation of the
countervailing duty (CVD) order on

(Vietnam) would be likely to lead to
continuation or recurrence of
countervailable subsidies at the levels
indicated in the ‘‘Final Results of
Review’’ section of this notice.
DATES: Applicable August 10, 2021.
