Still Time to Respond to USDA’s National Agricultural Classification Survey

If you missed the deadline to respond to USDA’s National Agricultural Classification Survey (NACS), it is not too late. A second survey reminder is coming soon and responding online is easier than ever before. The survey, one of the most important steps in determining who should receive a 2022 Census of Agriculture questionnaire, asks recipients if they are involved in any agricultural activity. A portion of the potential producers who received the survey responded last month.

“Every response matters. Even if a recipient believes the survey does not apply to them, we ask that they respond online to at least the initial screening questions,” said NASS Census and Survey Division Director Barbara Rater. “By participating in the survey, respondents not only show the breadth of American agriculture, they ensure they have a voice in the upcoming ag census and, as a result, their future and that of the industry.”

What happens when a farm buys its first Fendt? For Peter Watson Jones Ltd, the Fendt 726 Vario Gen7 has exceeded expectations from day one. For Jack, Farm Manager at Peter Watson Jones Ltd in North Shropshire, UK, the Fendt 726 Vario Gen7 wasn't just another tractor purchase. It was the farm's first experience with the Fendt brand.

Operating across a 1,200-acre arable farm alongside a 250,000-head broiler enterprise, the business has evolved significantly over the last decade, moving to a straight arable system with fewer staff and machines. Since arriving on the farm, the Fendt 726 Vario has established itself as the main drilling and cultivations tractor, earning its place through performance, versatility and efficiency. Whether it's handling large-scale cultivations or working with a new 4.5m strip-till drill, the tractor continues to impress.

Jack highlights its excellent manoeuvrability, operator comfort and ability to deliver strong pulling power at low engine speeds. The result? Outstanding fuel efficiency without compromising performance. Reliability has also been a key factor, with dependable backup from the team at TR Machinery helping to keep the tractor working when it matters most.

?? Watch as Jack shares why the Fendt 726 Vario Gen7, the farm's first Fendt, has made such a strong impression and become an integral part of their operation.
