Our mission is to provide data for research and analysis not available elsewhere while protecting the confidentiality of our respondents. Data are provided through Special Tabulations . Special Tabulations are publishable, resummarized data tables from the Census of Agriculture or NASS surveys. Requests for Special Tabulations are considered when the requested data are not published elsewhere. Reports are published for the Census and agriculture surveys.
Output is customized to a specific request.
Many Special Tabulations are based on a statistical model or a specified set of assumptions. Tables using these assumptions are derived from the Census of Agriculture or NASS surveys and, when published, carry the appropriate disclaimers. These data sets are not complete, being limited to reports meeting specific criteria. All Special Tabulations are subject to a thorough disclosure review prior to release to prevent the disclosure of any individual data. Since Special Tabulations are unique and beyond traditional NASS releases, rules and regulations to prevent disclosure are applied to prevent even the perception of disclosure.
