Bureau is urging each farmer to have his records of quantities harvested, products sold, major farm expenses and the like readily available so that he can easily and accurately fill out his census report when it comes.
It is from the Census of Agriculture, conducted every five years, that data are taken to form the basis for programs of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Congressional farm legislation, farm organization policies, farm programs established and administered by State departments of agriculture, and many other services provided by colleges, business firms, manufacturers, publishers and broadcasters.
THE CENSUS of Agriculture is the only source of statistics on agriculture that are comparable from county to county nationwide. It is the sole source of comprehensive data tabulated for each State and for the U.S. for farms classified by size, tenure, type of organization, market value of products sold, and type of farm enterprise.
Every farmer’s report is confidential by law. It may be seen only by sworn Census employees and may be used only for statistical purposes. The mail census method reinforces confidentiality.
