and computer technologies to collect data on foods acquired and to
monitor data as well as implement a monetary incentives scheme to
encourage report of foods acquired throughout the entire survey period.
The data collection will provide information that is critical to ERS'
plans for the next round of FoodAPS data collection. The data will be
analyzed and used to finalize design and data collection protocol for
the Full Survey.
