[PCA] USDA National Agricultural Statistics - are native plants in there?!

[De Angelis, Patricia]

Wondering if any of you native plant growers out there know whether the
USDA-NASS "Quick Stats" includes information on native plants grown for
restoration or for local sale?

Also, do native plant growers receive the 2017 Census of Agriculture
survey?

If yes, what commodity types pertain to native plant growers?

I'd also be interested in the "data items" that native plant growers use in
responding to such a survery.

For example: Under the "Crops" SECTOR, if you choose "Propagative Material"
as the COMMODITY, the DATA ITEMS you can choose from range from "Number of
sales" to "Wholesale sales measured in $."

Thanks for any insights!

Best,
Patricia
