Help Yourself And Our
Nation's Agriculture
New facts are needed about acres of farmland,
numbers of cattle, tons of fertilizer, bushels of corn,
and many other subjects. They are of vital importance to
decision makers—on farms, in industry and in govern
ment.
The U.S. Bureau of the Census relies on your coop
eration to take the 1978 Census of Agriculture. It will
provide new benchmark data showing the trends.of
America's farms and ranches.
Data for 1978 are requested as early in 1979 as pos
sible. Your cooperation will improve the speed and
accuracy with which new totals are available for your
use and for the organizations that serve you.
