May 21, 2025June Agricultural Survey to collect key acreage data
Growers will soon be able to provide important information to the USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Services (NASS) for the June Agricultural Survey.
NASS will contact nearly 92,000 producers across the nation in the next several weeks as part of the survey, which helps determine crop acreage and stock levels as of June 1.
“The June Agricultural Survey is one of the most important and well-known surveys NASS conducts,” Joseph L. Parsons, USDA NASS administrator, said in a news release. “When producers respond to the survey, they provide essential information that helps determine the expected acreage and supply of major commodities in the United States for the 2025 crop year. The results are used by farmers and ranchers, USDA, exporters, researchers, economists, policymakers and others to inform a wide range of decisions.”
Producers can respond to the survey at agcounts.usda.gov, by phone or by mail. They will be asked to provide information on planted and harvested acreage.
“NASS safeguards the privacy of respondents by keeping all individual information confidential and publishing the data in aggregate form only to ensure that no operation or producer can be identified,” Parsons said. “We recognize that this is a busy time for farmers, but the information they provide helps U.S. agriculture remain viable and capable.”
NASS will publish the data in a series of USDA reports, including the annual Acreage and quarterly Grain Stocks reports on June 30.
Data also contributes to NASS monthly and annual Crop Production reports, the annual Small Grains Summary, the annual Farms and Land in Farms report, the Land Values report and various livestock reports.
NASS reports are available at nass.usda.gov.
