Final Report [of the] Basic Farm and Producer Data Task Force

Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service

No 337406, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: Excerpts from the Introduction: Specifically, the responsibilities of the Basic Farm and Producer Data Task Force were two-fold in nature. Initially, to contribute towards total ASCS systems development by identifying and defining the areas of the total system that can be described as basic farm and producer data. This data comprises those records that are or could be common to all programs for which county offices have responsibility. Secondly, upon the completion of this identification and definition phase, the task force was given the charge to study in depth the establishment and maintenance of an overall farm and producer data base and to develop and recommend a conceptual system for collecting and structuring the data in a more efficient and usable mode to provide for: 1. Better servicing the needs of farmers and other users. 2. Contributing to the more effective administration of farm programs. 3. Establishing a base for responsive management information system.
