On April 12, 2024, USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) announced it would no longer provide the July Cattle Inventory report… Now USDA has reversed that decision.
The USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) is reinstating the July Cattle report, as well as County Estimates for Crops and Livestock.
The county estimate reinstatement is effective for the 2024 crop season for the row crops (corn, cotton, peanuts, rice, sorghum, soybeans) and for the 2025 crop season for the small grain crops (barley, oats, wheat).
Following are scheduled release dates:
- County Estimates – corn, sorghum, soybeans: May 6
- County Estimates – cotton: May 12
- County Estimates – cattle: May 13
- County Estimates – rice, peanuts: May 23
- July Cattle: July 25
The full calendar of NASS reports is available at www.nass.usda.gov/Publications/index.php.
