The Census of Agriculture is the leading source of facts and figures
about American agriculture. Conducted every five years, the Census
provides a detailed picture of U.S. farms and ranches and the people who
operate them. All farmers and ranchers should receive a Census form in
the mail by early January. Completed forms are due by February 4, 2013.
Farmers can return their forms by mail or online by visiting the
USDA Census of
Agriculture Web site. Participation by every farmer and rancher,
regardless of the size or type of operation, is vitally important.

USDA has announced a new $33 million partnership with
farmers, ranchers and forest landowners to use innovative approaches
to restore and protect the habitats for wildlife, including seven
at-risk species and other vulnerable game species. Under this
strategy, called Working Lands for Wildlife, Federal, state, and local
wildlife experts are jointly identifying at-risk species that would
benefit from targeted habitat restoration investments on private lands.
Using the best available science, the partners will prioritize
restoration actions on a large regional scale to most cost effectively
focus assistance. |
