Results from the Penn State/CRP Study

The results of the three surveys are detailed in 10 Extension bulletins, available either on-line (in PDF format) or through your local Penn State Cooperative Extension office.  The publications focus on state- and regional-level information.  County-level information from the study, which corresponds directly to these state-level bulletins and is designed to complement the bulletins, also is available.
