USDA asks producers to report crop yields
The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Agricultural Statistics Service is surveying Kentucky producers for its County Agricultural Production Survey small grains survey.
The survey will collect information on total acres planted and harvested, and yield and production of small grains crops. CAPS will provide the data needed to estimate acreage and production of winter wheat in Kentucky.
Within the next few weeks NASS representatives will contact selected growers to arrange telephone or in-person interviews for the survey.
County average yields will be published Dec. 13. For more information on NASS surveys and reports, call the NASS Eastern Mountain Regional Field Office at 1-800-928-5277.
