National Agricultural Statistics Service 

Title: List Sampling Frame Survey. 

OMB Control Number: 0535–0140. 

Summary of Collection: General 

authority for these data collection 

activities is granted under U.S. Code 

Title 7, Section 2204 which specifies 

that ‘‘The Secretary of Agriculture shall 

procure and preserve all information 

concerning agriculture which he can 

obtain * * * by the collection of 

statistics * * *’’ The primary objective 

of the National Agricultural Statistics 

Service (NASS) is to provide data users 

with timely and reliable agricultural 

production and economic statistics, as 

well as environmental and specialty 

agricultural related statistics. To 

accomplish this objective, NASS relies 

heavily on the use of sample surveys 

statistically drawn from ‘‘List Sampling 

Frame.’’ The List Sampling Frame is a 

database of names and addresses, with 

control data, that contains the 

components values from which these 

samples can be drawn. 

Need and Use of the Information: 

Data from criteria surveys are used to 

provide control data for new records on 

the list sampling frame. This 

information is utilized to define the size 

of operation, define sample populations 

and establish eligibility for the Census 

of Agriculture. New names and 

addresses of potential farms are 

obtained on a regular basis from growers 

association, other government agencies 

and various outside sources. This 

information is used to develop efficient 

sample designs, which allows NASS the 

ability to draw reduced sample sizes 

from the originally large universe 

populations.
