Agriculture producers who did not receive the 2017 Census of Agriculture and do not receive other USDA surveys or censuses have until June 30 to sign up to receive the 2022 Census of Agriculture at nass.usda.gov/AgCensus. USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) will mail ag census survey codes for responding securely online to every known U.S. producer this November. Hard copy questionnaires will follow in December. The ag census, conducted for over 180 years, remains the only source of comprehensive and impartial agricultural data for every state and county in the nation. It includes every operation – large or small, urban or rural – from which $1,000 or more of agricultural products are produced and sold, or would normally be produced and sold, in the ag census year. “For North Carolina’s farmers, the Census of Agriculture is their voice, their future and their opportunity to be heard” said NASS NC State Statistician Dee Webb. “Help tell the story of NC agriculture, sign up today.” On the NASS webpage, producers
can also access frequently asked questions, explore past and current ag
census data, access tools to help spread the word about the upcoming ag census,
learn about ag census special studies, and more. NASS builds its distribution
list for every Census of Agriculture between and during ag census years through
the official sign-up webpage and multiple National Agricultural Classification
Surveys. To learn more about the 2022 Census of Agriculture, visit nass.usda.gov/AgCensus, or call the NASS NC Field
Office at 919-707-3333.
