Chebanse, IL.....

I think some folks feel it's better to answer partially or withhold some (but not all) information for whatever reason. USDA doesn't think so. Following is from the 155 page document of HOW TO fill out the cencus:

 

2. Enter responses to all questions in the appropriate answer cells, on the correct line, and in the units requested (dollars, bushels, tons, etc.). Write any explanations outside the answer spaces or on a separate sheet of paper. If a separate sheet of paper is used, include the first 11 digits of the CENSUSID that is located above the bar code in the address area on the cover page of the report form.


3. If exact figures are not available, enter best estimates. The respondent may write "est." for estimated in the shaded area near the answer cell but not in the answer cell itself. An estimate is much more useful than an omitted answer.
