Summary of Collection: The primary objectives of the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) are to prepare and issue official State and national estimates of crop and livestock production, disposition and prices, economic statistics, and environmental statistics related to agriculture and to conduct the Census of Agriculture and its follow-on surveys. NASS will conduct a survey of agricultural operations in Oklahoma. Selected farmers will be asked to provide data on rent & acreage as well as form of the lease agreement for operations with the following lease agreements: (1) cash rent for selected crops, (2) share rent, (3) pasture leases, winter grazing, and recreational leases. General authority for these data collection activities is granted under U.S.C. Title 7, Section 2204. Need and Use of the Information: Oklahoma State University, as well as many farmers and ranchers in Oklahoma, have been interested in land rental rates for agricultural operations in greater detail than what is provided in the Cash Rents and Leases Survey used to satisfy the requirement originally specified in the 2008 Farm Bill and conducted under Office of Management and Budget approval number 0535– 0002. To assist producers with this data need, the Oklahoma State University, Department of Agricultural Economics (OSU–DAE), has been collecting and publishing statistical estimates biennially for more than 30 years— before USDA–NASS was tasked with the Cash Rents County Estimates. The OSU–DAE obtained statistics to assist producers in making sound rental agreements. Due to the diverse nature of the state, OSU–DAE felt it necessary to provide more descriptive land breakouts such as pasture estimates into native pasture and improved pasture due to large price differences and input costs associated with each type of pasture. The NASS Oklahoma Field Office routinely receives data requests from data users specific to land leasing rates. While NASS does typically have county and state level cash rents data available for data users, many times they are looking for more detail on the breakout of pastureland or cropland. In Oklahoma, improved grasses for pastureland tend to bring above average rates due to the delivered output, and the same applies to some cropland.
