Census of Agriculture Sign-Up Deadline Approaching

Ag producers have until June 30^th to sign up to receive the 2022 Census of Agriculture. NASS will mail Ag census survey codes for responding securely online to every known U.S. producer in November. Hard copy questions will be mailed in December.

The Ag census has been conducted for more than 180 years and remains the only source of comprehensive and impartial agricultural data for every state and county in the nation.

It includes operations of all sizes and in all locations.

“The Census of Agriculture is a collective voice that tells the story and value of American agriculture,” says Barbara Rater, NASS Census and Survey Division Director. “The data influences actions and informs policy and program decisions that directly impact producers, their operations, and everyone they touch, which is all of us.” NASS said that why they want every producer to participate in the census.
