Abstract: NASS is requesting a non-substantive change to all Hop Stock questionnaires. The NASS Hop Survey Team proposes updating the titles of all Hops Survey questionnaires. The new titles will begin with the word "Hops," followed by the rest of the title. This change is purely administrative and will not alter the substance of the questionnaires.
