Good morning ANR!
Please see the message below and help get the word to your farmers on the importance of filling out the Census of Agriculture. Not only is the information collected extremely useful for various research efforts, being able to show the full scale and reach of California agriculture is vital for our policy efforts and to help increase public investment in the farm sector. Your help is greatly appreciated!
The Census of Agriculture deadline is days away and the survey responses continue to flow in from California. So far, only 25.93 percent of California producers have responded. See the map below for the complete picture of return rates as of February 2, 2018.
Did you know it is easier than ever to respond online? NASS introduced an improved online questionnaire and included new questions to document changes and emerging trends in agriculture. Visit https://www.agcounts.usda.gov/cawi and be counted today. For more information, visit www.agcensus.usda.gov or call 1-800-727-9540.
