The USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service in cooperation with the USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service - Wildlife Services is conducting a Feral Swine Damage survey to measure the costs of feral swine damage to crop producers growing corn, soybeans, wheat, rice, peanuts, and sorghum in the states of Alabama, Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, South Carolina and Texas.

Why is this Important?

How does USDA Collect Swine Data?

We mail the survey on June 27 to more than 11,000 producers and collect the data:

Online – Producers can respond online via the new Respondent Portal at agcounts.usda.gov. On the portal, you can complete your surveys, track upcoming surveys, access data visualizations and reports of interest, link to other USDA agencies, and more.

By mail or fax – Producers can fill out their paper survey and return it by mail in the prepaid envelope provided or fax it to 855-415-3687.

By telephone interview - Interviewers may contact producers who do not respond by July 13, 2022 and set up an interview to complete the questionnaire.
