    Title: On Farm Monitoring of Antimicrobial Use and Resistance in 
U.S. Broiler Production.
    OMB Control Number: 0579-0481.
    Summary of Collection: 7 U.S.C. 391, the Animal Industry Act of 
1884, directs USDA to collect and disseminate animal health data and 
information. 7 U.S.C. 8308 of the Animal Health Protection Act, 
``Detection, Control, and Eradication of Diseases and Pests,'' May 13, 
2002, further directs USDA to examine and report on animal disease 
control methods. APHIS's mission is to protect and improve American 
agriculture's productivity and competitiveness. Realizing this mission 
relies, in large part, on collecting, analyzing, and disseminating 
livestock and poultry health information.
    APHIS is making this submission to continue the National Animal 
Health Monitoring System's (NAHMS') On-farm Monitoring of Antimicrobial 
Use and Resistance in U.S. Broiler Production study. This study is an 
information collection conducted by APHIS through a cooperative 
agreement with the University of Minnesota. This longitudinal study 
monitors U.S. broiler chicken operations for antimicrobial use (AMU), 
antimicrobial resistance (AMR), animal health and production practices, 
and the relationship between them and changes over time.
    Need and Use of the Information: This study provides U.S. poultry 
producers and animal health professionals information about the 
relationship between AMU, AMR, animal health and production, and 
changes in each over time. This information is essential for 
effectively

responding to the global health threat posed to animals and humans of 
increasing antimicrobial resistance. APHIS uses the forms NAHMS 470 and 
NAHMS 471 to collect the information for the study. Without this 
survey, APHIS will have limited information by which to make decisions 
related to AMU and AMR as they relate to the U.S. poultry industry.
    Description of Respondents: Businesses or other for-profits.
    Number of Respondents: 30.
    Frequency of Responses: Reporting; On occasion; Quarterly.
    Total Burden Hours: 869.
