Factbox-US government shutdown: agriculture data hit

The release of commodity market-sensitive reports released by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and other government agencies will be suspended if Congress fails to provide the government with funding for the fiscal year starting Sunday. During shutdowns, nonessential government employees are typically furloughed, or placed on temporary unpaid leave.
