This dataset provides information on collection abundances of snails from commercial catfish ponds in the Mississippi Delta Region. Snail trap data were collected from weekly trap (passive) checks and monthly collections (active) from a commercial catfish production facility, Snail species include Planorbella trivolvis, Biomphalaria havanensis, and Physa sp. Data include weekly collections from traps (unknown trapping range) and monthly collections from 1 sq. meter sampling grids.

Data provided by the Marine Institute, and may also incorporate data from other agencies and bodies.The NMPF, together with the National Strategic Plan for Sustainable Aquaculture Development and existing licensing and regulatory controls, aims to achieve the sustainable growth of the industry while minimising and mitigating environmental impacts. Measures include: according to requirements of the Environmental Impact Assessment Directive and the Birds and Habitats Directives; accounting for potential impacts for Good Environmental Status descriptors of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive; considering wider biodiversity interests, heritage assets, seascape, landscape, and visual impacts; best industry management practices in relation to sea lice controls, disease management, prevention of escapes, and avoiding the introduction of non-native species; ensuring that appropriate siting, scaling, phasing and design of farms minimises impacts on ecosystems, protected sites, and protected species.
Quick Stats is the National Agricultural Statistics Service's (NASS) online, self-service tool to access complete results from the 1997, 2002, 2007, and 2012 Censuses of Agriculture as well as the best source of NASS survey published estimates. The census collects data on all commodities produced on U.S. farms and ranches, as well as detailed information on expenses, income, and operator characteristics. The surveys that NASS conducts collect information on virtually every facet of U.S. agricultural production.

The U.S. Geological Survey maintains national data bases of water-use information. The data are collected and compiled every five years for each State, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. County, state, and national water-use estimates may be downloaded from the National Water Information System Web (NWISWeb) interface, Water Data for the Nation, by selecting the Water Use button or data category pull-down. Data on NWISWeb represent the current best estimates, and may have been revised from previous publications. Data available from the USGS County Water-Use generally reflect the published report, and may have been revised in subsequent analyses. Note: State-level data from 1950-1980 and watershed data are not available on NWISWeb, but they can be downloaded USGS County Water-Use Data link.
