e ensure the confidentiality of all individual reports. No person (outside of Agricultural Statistics Service

personnel), organization, or other local, state, or federal government agency has access to any report an

individual submits to us. Individual reports are used only in combination with other reports and are summarized

to develop county, state, and federal cranberry production estimates.

The publication and dissemination of agricultural statistics are possible only through the support and

cooperation of the agricultural industry. The New Jersey Agricultural Statistics Service would like to thank

those who responded and furnished information for the cranberry estimation program.

Who We Are...

The mission of USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) is to provide timely, accurate, and

useful statistics in service to United States agriculture. Statistics are based on data collected from growers and

agri-businesses through annual, quarterly, monthly, and weekly surveys and the Census of Agriculture.

Nationwide: About 400 national reports are issued annually covering about 120 crop and 45 livestock items in

the major-producing states along with economic and demographic information. Each report is published

according to a pre-set calendar of release dates. Strict security ensures that no one gains premature access to the

information. The Census of Agriculture is conducted every five years to generate statistics for ALL agricultural

commodities at the county, state, and national levels. The five-year program also includes special studies like

the Census of Horticulture and Aquaculture. Census products and services are available from all field offices.

New Jersey: The New Jersey field office in Trenton along with the regional office in Harrisburg, PA endeavor

to serve New Jersey Agriculture to meet data needs. We partner with New Jersey producers as good information

is an important component of good decisions.
