We are inviting you to participate in a study conducted by University of Tennessee Institute of Agriculture focused on estimating the economic impact of deer damage to row crops, specialty crops, turfgrass, and nurseries. We tried to make the survey only long enough to collect the data we need to measure the economic impact. We are not asking for any personal information.The findings of this study will be presented to stakeholders and participants in a report and presentations.
To complete the survey, please click on the survey link: https://utk.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_eIIlnfeGcu7HiRw
Thank you and please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

In this post, I’ll provide data supporting what I have penciled to be an ~860 lb per acre average lint yield for Tennessee. I’ll also provide a little background on how the USDA NASS numbers are generated and what we can do to make sure these estimates are improved when data is being collected by USDA NASS.
