Agriculture Data Domain
A collaborative site for official USDA data elements and data standards.
This is the official site for distributing common USDA data standards and data elements in support of Food, Farms, Forests, and Families.
The first subdomain is in support of USDA’s Acreage and Crop Reporting and Streamline Initiative (ACRSI) project which has standard data elements and data specification that can be viewed here.
USDA is following the best practices and guidance from the National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) as it pursues becoming a NIEM domain.
USDA has also set this page up for collaboration and USDA welcomes your feedback in ensuring we create complete, full-described data standards for interfacing with USDA.
This collaboration site is intended:
- USDA program managers
- Business analysts
- Developers
- US Federal Agencies
- Members of the public
- Industry Partners
