Jkt 262001
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved information
collection.
Abstract: USDA Trade Missions and
Trade Shows is revising previously
approved surveys in order to gather
more useful information to further
program objectives. The updated
surveys have more focused questions to
prompt responses that will be used to
implement effective trade promotion
events and ensure that program
objectives are met. For example, the
updated surveys will now ask fewer
qualitative questions about how
participants felt during the event and
more questions relating to the type of
organizations participating in the
program (e.g., whether an organization
is a member of a USDA Cooperator or
State and Region Trade Group). The
surveys will collect relevant data on
each organization and their connection
to USDA initiatives and programs.
Two of the five surveys undergoing
revision are applications to gather
essential information from respondents
desiring to participate in USDA trade
missions or virtual trade events to
determine their eligibility to take part in
the event. The remaining three are
voluntary post-event digital surveys for
participants to fill out after a USDAendorsed trade show, trade mission, or
virtual trade event to report their
satisfaction with the event and actual
on-site and projected sales data as a
direct result of their participation in the
program. Trade and sales data supplied
on this form is strictly confidential and
will not be shared with outside sources.
Submitted information from these postevent surveys is used to measure the
benefits of these activities for
participants, participant satisfaction
with the activities, and how activities
can be improved. All revised surveys
are expected to positively contribute to
FAS’ strategic goals related to promoting
U.S. agricultural exports.
Estimate of Burden: The total number
of questions in each revised survey have
decreased, resulting in the public
reporting burden for each respondent
participating in USDA Trade Mission
and Shows Events to be approximately
15 minutes for each survey.
