Abstract: This is a request for a non-substantive change to the List Frame docket. NASS is including an additional version of the criteria type questionnaire to collect data from American Indians in the western mountain region of the US to add to our List Frame of known farm operations. No estimates will be published from these data collections. The data that is collected will be used to improve our List Frame prior to the 2022 Census of Agriculture. There are no changes to number of responses or respondent burden due to this request.
