    Introduction

    PURPOSE AND SCOPE The 2012 Census of Agriculture Watershed publication provides data that supplement the 2012 Census of Agriculture, Volume 1. This report is the second time that NASS has summarized and published Census of Agriculture data by watersheds. As a service to agricultural and environmental data users, the 2012 data for selected individual land characteristics are published at the 6-digit Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC) level. For comparison, data from the 2007 Census of Agriculture are also published in this report at the 6-digit HUC level if comparable data were available. According to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), the U.S. is divided into 20 regions (2-digit Hydrologic Unit Code level). Eighteen of the regions occupy the land area of the conterminous United States, Alaska constitutes region 19, and the Hawaiian Islands are region 20. These regions are subdivided into over 200 subregions (4-digit Hydrologic Unit Code level) based on water flow patterns from the major rivers within the region. The subregions are further divided into basins (6-digit Hydrologic Unit Code level). For the purposes of this report, the basins will be referred to as watersheds.

    AUTHORITY The 2012 Census of Agriculture is required by law under the “Census of Agriculture Act of 1997,” Public Law 105-113 (Title 7, United States Code, Section 2204g). The law directs the Secretary of Agriculture to conduct a census of agriculture in every fifth year after.

    FARM DEFINITION The census definition of a farm is any place from which $1,000 or more of agricultural products were produced and sold, or normally would have been sold, during the census year. The definition has

    changed nine times since it was established in 1850. The current definition was first used for the 1974 Census of Agriculture and has been used in each subsequent agriculture census. This definition is consistent with the definition used for current USDA surveys.

    DATA COMPARABILITY Most data are comparable between the 2012 and 2007 censuses. A few changes were made to the 2012 census that effect comparability for some data items. HUC6 watersheds with significant changes between the 2012 and 2007 censuses are designated with “(see text)” in the table; specific details regarding the changes are defined in the appendix. Some watershed boundaries were changed due to enhanced technology that more precisely defined the boundaries. Added to the 2012 census were questions on no-till and conservation tillage acreages. See Volume 1, Geographic Area Series, Appendix B for a detailed discussion of these changes (http://www.agcensus.usda.gov/Publications/2012/Full_Report/Volume_1,_Chapter_1_US/usappxb.pdf).

    REFERENCE PERIOD Reference periods for the 2012 Census of Agriculture were similar to those used in the 2007 Census of Agriculture. Livestock and chicken inventories were measured as of December 31 of the census year.

    WATER RESOURCES MAPS The maps used throughout this report were provided by USGS. The data for each region are preceded by two maps, one of which shows the region in relation to the U.S., and the other which shows the region broken into each of its watersheds (6-digit HUC).

  • VI INTRODUCTION 2012 Census of Agriculture USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

    TABLES AND APPENDIX Table 1. This table provides selected 2012 and 2007 data for the same data items for each region. For comparison purposes, each region’s data table displays the U.S. level data totals, followed by the region totals, and then the individual watershed totals. Appendix. Provides information about the statistical methodology used in assigning each farm operation to a specific watershed. In addition, changes to HUC6 definitions and boundaries since 2007 are discussed. It also includes definitions of specific terms and phrases used in this publication.

    RESPONDENT CONFIDENTIALITY In keeping with the provisions of Title 7 of the United States Code, no data are published that would disclose information about the operations of an individual farm or ranch. All tabulated data are subject to an extensive disclosure review prior to publication. Any tabulated item that identifies data reported by a respondent or allows a respondent’s data to be accurately estimated or derived, was suppressed and coded with a ‘D’. However, the number of farms reporting an item is not considered confidential information and is provided even though other information is withheld.

    SPECIAL STUDIES, SUBJECT SERIES REPORTS, AND CUSTOM TABULATIONS Reports such as American Indians Reservations, 2013 Farm and Ranch Irrigation Survey, and the 2013 Census of Aquaculture are part of the census program and provide supplemental information to the 2012 Census of Agriculture in the respective subject area. Results are published on the Internet.

    Custom-designed tabulations may be developed when data are not published elsewhere. These tabulations are developed to individual user specifications on a cost-reimbursable basis and shared with the public. Quick Stats, NASS’s online database that allows data users to build customized queries, should be investigated before requesting a custom tabulation. All special studies, special reports, and custom tabulations are subject to a thorough disclosure review prior to release to prevent the disclosure of any individual respondent data. Requests for custom tabulations can be submitted via the internet from the NASS home page, by mail, or by e-mail at:

    Data Lab National Agricultural Statistics Service Room 5307 1400 Independence Ave, S.W. Washington, D.C. 20250-2054 or [email protected]

    ABBREVIATIONS AND SYMBOLS The following abbreviations and symbols are used throughout the tables: - Represents zero. (D) Withheld to avoid disclosing data for individual farms. (NA) Not available. (X) Not applicable. (Z) Less than half the unit shown.
