Many thanks to the farmers, ranchers, and producers across the Nation who willingly participate in the censuses and surveys conducted by the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), U.S. Department of Agriculture. They are the strength behind the census of agriculture, agricultural inventory, production, price and environmental information produced by NASS. We appreciate their support and cooperation. They are the cornerstone of America's food and fiber system.
