Greetings!

 

The Agricultural Marketing Service (AMS) is pleased to announce a  webinar highlighting the National Agricultural Statistics Organic Survey.

January 29 Webinar: 2014 Organic Producer Survey Highlights


On Thursday, January 29, 2015 from 3:30-4:30 PM Eastern Time, the USDA Organic Working Group (OWG) will host a webinar to provide an overview of USDA's National Agricultural Statistics Service 2014 Organic Survey. The survey is a complete inventory of all known organic producers that are certified, exempt from certification, and transitioning to organic production. Survey forms were mailed earlier this month, and producers can respond either by mail or online.

 

We need your help to collect good data on organic production in the United States.  Producers' confidential responses will provide important, detailed, unbiased information to help determine the economic impact of organic production. This information will help the USDA to develop programs and services for organic crop and livestock producers. Please join us to learn more about the survey and to ask questions.
