Abstract:
This is a renewal for three years for the annual Floriculture Survey. After an extensive review process the States involved in the program were changed somewhat to target the 16 largest producing States. In addition, NASS has been contacted by three States wanting to pay for their own Floriculture Survey, since they were not included in the US target population. In addition, Alaska was added to the list of target States, through a line item in the Federal budget. Several minor changes have been made to the questionnaires to adjust the plant materials in several of the categories. A more detailed description of the changes can be found in Item 15 of the Supporting Statement A.
