  Educators' Corner

The Census of Agriculture Lesson Plans were designed to help inform and empower students to play an active role in the Census process. The materials address such topics as what the Census of Agriculture is and how is it used; how surveys are conducted; the rights and responsibilities of completing the Census; and how to complete the survey.

Agriculture Counts Lesson Plans are structured for grades kindergarten through 12. Our goal is to create fun lessons that incorporate agriculture into English, math, geography, science, and social studies.
