USDA Reminds Livestock Producers There is Still Time to Respond to Livestock Inventory Surveys
 
Recent and forecast winter storms are a poignant reminder that good information is needed to help allocate emergency resources in times of crisis.

If you need help completing your report, or need more information, please call 1(800) 626-3142. These data are critical in helping assess and allocate emergency resources.
