Producer Survey from MN Statewide Cooperative Partnership

Conducted by the Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy (IATP) and the University of Minnesota (UMN) in collaboration with the Statewide Cooperative Partnership (SCP), and funded by the Agroecology Fund, this survey builds on 2022 baseline data collected by the SCP.

It aims to further explore how we can best support farmers in adopting sustainable farming practices, with the goal of generating actionable insights that will inform the work we all do across Minnesota's food system.

By participating in this survey, farmers have an opportunity to influence agricultural programs, market development, and climate resilience strategies that impact their businesses and communities! Minnesota farmers can complete the 2025 Producer Survey online in under 30 minutes and will be compensated for their time.

Producers can take the English survey here: https://z.umn.edu/statewide-producer-survey2025. The survey will also be available in Spanish, Hmong, and Somali in the coming weeks; we’ll send an email when these translated surveys are available.
