    The Department of Agriculture is seeking public comments on a proposed information collection related to estimating daily livestock slaughter under federal inspection. This request is part of the Paperwork Reduction Act process and comments are due by March 1, 2021. The information helps the Agricultural Marketing Service make market outlook projections and maintain statistical data. The data collected from businesses, individuals, and farms is important for making informed marketing decisions, especially because the government is a significant purchaser of meat.

    Simple Explanation

    The Department of Agriculture wants to find out how many animals are being processed for meat every day and they are asking people to share this information. They promise to listen to everyone’s ideas about how to make the process easy and fair, but they haven’t said exactly how or how much it will cost.

    The Department of Agriculture submitted a request to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for approval of an information collection under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The information is necessary for farmers and ranchers to nominate candidates for the Farm Service Agency (FSA) county committee elections using form FSA-669A. The form collects details like the nominee's name, address, and signatures, and includes an optional section for race, ethnicity, and gender data. Those participating in the nomination must meet eligibility requirements, and the information helps prepare for the annual elections.

    Simple Explanation

    The Department of Agriculture wants to make sure that farmers can choose who helps them in their town, so they asked for permission to collect information from people who want to be voted for. They also want to know optional things like their background, but people are worried about how this information will be kept safe.
