This supporting statement is requesting a three-year renewal for a group of list frame and two area frame surveys that comprise the National Agricultural Statistics Service’s (NASS) core program. Several program changes are being made to some of the surveys conducted in 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 virus. A couple of surveys are being changed due to cooperative agreements with other agencies.

Short Statement:
Due to the COVID-19 virus, several changes have taken place for the 2020 calendar year. The June Area Survey will be suspended for this year and will be conducted again in 2021 and 2022. This survey relies on face to face interviews with farmers and ranchers. Instead the data from the 2019 survey will be used to adjust for list incompleteness in 2020. Several of the surveys will have adjusted sample sizes due to this change in 2020. In Jan. 2021 some additional predator loss questions will be added to the Cattle Report and the Sheep/Goat Report due to a cooperative agreement with APHIS and several State governments.
