2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE INTRODUCTION V

INTRODUCTION

HISTORY

 For more than 150 years, the U.S.

Department of Commerce, Bureau of the

Census, conducted the census of

agriculture. However, the 1997

Appropriations Act transferred the

responsibility from the Bureau of the

Census to the U.S. Department of

Agriculture (USDA), National Agricultural

Statistics Service (NASS). The 2002

Census of Agriculture for the U.S. Virgin

Islands is the second census in the U.S.

Virgin Islands conducted by NASS. 

The census of agriculture is taken to

obtain agricultural statistics for each county,

State (including territories and

protectorates), and the Nation. The first

U.S. agricultural census data were collected

in 1840 as a part of the sixth decennial

census. From 1840 to 1920, an agricultural

census was taken as a part of each

decennial census. Since 1920, a separate

national agricultural census has been taken

every 5 years.

 The 2002 census is the 14th census of

agriculture of the U.S. Virgin Islands. The

first, taken in 1920, was a special census

authorized by the Secretary of Commerce. 

The next agriculture census was taken in

1930 in conjunction with the decennial

census, a practice that continued every 10

years through 1960. The 1964 Census of

Agriculture was the first quinquennial

(5-year) census to be taken in the U.S.

Virgin Islands. In 1976, Congress

authorized the census of agriculture to be

taken for 1978 and 1982 to adjust the datareference year to coincide with the 1982

Economic Censuses covering

manufacturing, mining, construction, retail

trade, wholesale trade, service industries,

and selected transportation activities. After

1982, the agriculture census reverted to a

5-year cycle.

Data in this publication are for the

calendar year 2002, and inventory data 

reflect what was on hand on December 31,

2002. This is a change from the past

practice in the Virgin Islands of collecting

data in the summer for the previous 12

months. The 1997 data referenced in the

tables reflect data for the 12- month period

of July 1, 1997 through June 30, 1998 and

inventory on hand as of July 1, 1998. 

CENSUS USES

The census of agriculture is the leading

source of statistics about the U.S. Virgin

Islands’s agricultural production and the

only source of consistent, comparable data

at the island level. Census statistics are

used to measure agricultural production and

to identify trends in an ever changing

agricultural sector. Many local programs

use census data as a benchmark for

designing and evaluating surveys. Private

industry uses census statistics to provide a

more effective production and distribution

system for the agricultural community.

AUTHORITY AND AREA COVERED

 The census of agriculture is required by

law under the “Census of Agriculture Act of

1997,” Public Law 105-113 (Title 7, United

States Code, Section 2204g). The law

directs the Secretary of Agriculture to

conduct a census of agriculture every five

years, covering the years ending in 2 and 7. 

The census of agriculture includes each

State, Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin

Islands, and the Commonwealth of

Northern Mariana Islands. 

The census data for the U.S. Virgin

Islands were collected in accordance with a

Memorandum of Agreement approved by

the Administrator of NASS and by the

Commissioner of Agriculture of the U.S.

Virgin Islands. It was conducted with the

cooperation and assistance of the U.S.

Virgin Islands Department of Agriculture.
INTRODUCTION VI 2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE

FARM DEFINITION

 The statistics collected in the census

relate to places with agricultural operations

qualifying as farms according to the census

definition. In the U.S. Virgin Islands, this

included all places from which $500 or more

of agricultural products were produced and

sold, or normally would have been sold,

during the calendar year 2002. The farm

definition is the same used in the previous

census, except that the census year is the

calendar year instead of the 12 month

period from July 1 - June 30 used

previously.

COMPARABILITY OF DATA

 In general, data from the 2002 census

are comparable with those of previous

censuses.

TABULAR PRESENTATION

 Tables 1 through 17 show detailed data

for the Virgin Islands and for St. Croix and

St. Thomas/St. John, accompanied by

historic data from the previous census.

Tables 17 through 21 provide 2002 island

data cross-tabulated by tenure of operator,

age of operator, size of farm, and value of

agricultural products sold. 

SPECIAL TABULATIONS

 Custom-designed tabulations can be

developed to individual user specifications

on a programming cost reimbursable basis.

Inquiries about special tabulations should

be directed to Data Lab Administrator,

Marketing and Information Services Office,

National Agricultural Statistics Service, U.S.

Department of Agriculture, 1400

Independence Ave., S.W., Washington, DC

20250.

DISCLOSURE RULES

 In keeping with the provisions of Title 7,

United States Code, no data are published

that would disclose the operations of an

individual farm. However, the number of

farms in a given size category or other

classification is not considered a disclosure,

so this information may be given even

though other information is withheld.

DOLLAR VALUES

 All dollar values presented in this report

are in current dollars, i.e., 2002 data are in

2002 dollars and 1997 data in 1997 dollars. 

The dollar values have not been adjusted

for changes in price levels between census

years.

REFERENCE PERIODS

 Inventories of livestock, poultry, and

machinery and equipment are the number

on hand as of December 31, 2002. Crop

production, crop and livestock sales, and

expense data are for the calendar year

2002.

ABBREVIATIONS AND SYMBOLS

 The following abbreviations and symbols

are used throughout

the tables:

 - Represents zero.

 (D) Withheld to avoid disclosing data

for individual farms.

 (NA) Not available. 

 (X) Not applicable.

 (Z) Less than half of the unit shown.

2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE APPENDIX A A-1

APPENDIX A.

General Explanation

DATA COLLECTION

Method of Enumeration

 As in the previous censuses of the U.S.

Virgin Islands, a direct enumeration procedure

was used in the 2002 Census of Agriculture. 

Enumeration was based on a list of farm

operators compiled by the U.S. Virgin Islands

Department of Agriculture. This list was

compiled with the help of the USDA Farm

Services Agency located in St. Croix. The

statistics in this report were collected from

farm operators beginning in January of 2003.

 Each enumerator was assigned a list of

individuals or farm operations from a master

enumeration list. The enumerators contacted

persons or operations on their list and

completed a census report form for all farm

operations. If the person on the list was not

operating a farm, the enumerator recorded

whether the land had been sold or rented to

someone else and was still being used for

agriculture. If land was sold or rented out, the

enumerator got the name of the new operator

and contacted that person to ensure that he or

she was included in the census.

Training Program

 The project manager, crew leaders, and

enumerators employed for the census in the

U.S. Virgin Islands received special training in

accordance with instructions prepared by

NASS. The training included practice in

interviewing, filling out the report form, and

detailed discussion of the enumerator's

instructions.

Report Form

 Prior to each agriculture census, the

content of all census report forms is reviewed

to eliminate inquiries no longer needed, to

identify new items necessary to meet user

needs, and to better describe the agricultural

situation in the Islands. Data requests are

solicited from farm organizations, land-grant

colleges and universities, State and Federal

agencies, State Departments of Agriculture,

agribusinesses, and other users. Each

respondent is asked to identify and justify its

specific data needs. 

 The report form for the 2002 Census of

Agriculture for the U.S. Virgin Islands was

prepared by NASS, in cooperation with the

Department Agriculture of the Virgin Islands.

Based on comments from the Virgin Islands

Department Agriculture (which coordinated

review of the report form by data users in the

Virgin Islands), the content of the 2002 census

report form incorporated some changes from

the previous census. The most significant

change to the questionnaire was the addition

of a section on irrigation. This section collects

information on the area of land irrigated,

whether a private or public system was

utilized, and the major source of water used

for irrigation. There was also a question

added to the expense section of the

questionnaire, requesting data on

expenditures for seed.

DATA PROCESSING

 The processing of the 2002 Census of

Agriculture for the U.S. Virgin Islands was

done in St. Croix. Each report form was

reviewed and coded prior to data keying. 

Report forms not meeting the census farm

definition were voided. The remaining report

forms were examined for clarity and

completeness. Reporting errors in units of

measures, illegible entries, and misplaced

entries were corrected.

 After all the report forms had been

reviewed and coded, the data were keyed and

subjected to a thorough computer edit. The

edit performed comprehensive checks for

consistency and reasonableness, corrected

erroneous or inconsistent data, supplied

missing data based on similar farms, and

assigned farm classification codes necessary

for tabulating the data. All substantial changes

to the data generated by the computer edits
A-2 APPENDIX A 2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE

were reviewed and verified by analysts.

Inconsistencies identified, but not corrected by

the computer, were reviewed, corrected, and

keyed to a correction file. The corrected data

were then tabulated by the computer and

reviewed by analysts.

 Prior to publication, tabulated totals were

reviewed by analysts to identify inconsistencies

and potential coverage problems. 

Comparisons were made with previous census

data, as well as other available data. The

computer system provided the capability to

review up-to-date tallies of all selected data

items for various sets of criteria which

included, but were not limited to, geographic

levels, farm types, and sales levels. Data were

examined for each set of criteria and any

inconsistencies or potential problems were

then researched by examining individual data

records contributing to the tabulated total. 

When necessary, data inconsistencies were

resolved by making corrections to individual

data records.

DEFINITIONS AND EXPLANATION

 The following definitions and explanations

relate to items that are in the tables. For an

exact wording of the questions and instructions

on the report form, see the report form in

appendix B.

Crops. The report form contained individual

inquiries for crops commonly grown and space

to write in those less frequently produced. The

information requested in 2002 included acres

of crops harvested and pounds harvested for

sale from January 1 through December 31,

2002.

The units of measure for reporting

quantities of some crops have varied from one

census to another. The aim has been to

permit reporting in the units of measure

currently in use. The quantities harvested for

each crop are expressed in the units of

measure given on the 2002 report form.

Field or forage crops. The land area from

which individual crops were harvested for sale

was obtained for field and forage crops in

acres and 10th of acres. When two or more

crops were harvested from the same land, the

area was to be reported for each separate

crop or planting. Total quantities of each crop

harvested for sale were also reported. 

Vegetables. Land area for individual crops,

and the quantity harvested for sale for each

crop were collected.

Fruits, nuts, or nursery crops. The total

number of acres planted in bearing and

nonbearing fruit and nut trees was collected. 

For individual fruit or nut crops, data on the

number of bearing and nonbearing trees, and

the quantity harvested for sale, were reported. 

For nursery crops, the land area harvested,

both square feet under cover and acres in the

open, was collected, along with the value of

sales.

Equipment. The following types of equipment

on the place at time of enumeration regardless

of ownership, were reported if they were

operable:

Automobiles.

Motortrucks. This includes pickup

trucks and truck- trailer combinations.

Tractors. This includes all wheel and

tracklaying (crawler) tractors and garden

tractors.

Expenses. The 2002 report form contained

questions on seven types of farm expenses

incurred between January 1 and December

31, 2002, whether made by the farm operator,

his/her landlord, or both. A farm operator who

rented part of his/her land to others reported

only the expenses on the land he/she

operated.

Hired farm labor. Expenses for hired farm

labor include total cash payments made to

family members and others for farm labor.

Payments to persons supplied by a contractor

or a cooperative organization and paid directly

by them or by the person in charge are also

included. 
2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE APPENDIX A A-3

Machine hire and customwork. Expenses for

machine hire and customwork relate to tractor

hire, plowing, and spraying. Any amount

spent for the labor involved is considered to be

part of the expense. The costs of hauling,

trucking, or of exchange work without pay are

omitted.

Purchases of feed. Expenses for feed for

livestock and poultry include total cash

payments made for pasture used, salt

concentrates, mineral supplements, grain, hay,

millfeeds, and any other items purchased for

feeding livestock and poultry on the place. 

Expenses made for the grinding and mixing of

feed and the estimated cost of items furnished

to the operator by a landlord or others are also

included. Payments made by a tenant to a

landlord for feed grown on the tenant's farm

are excluded.

Purchases of fertilizers and manure. These

expenses include the total amount spent for

manure and commercial fertilizers of all kinds

for use on the farm.

Purchases of insecticides, fungicides, and

herbicides. This item relates to total cash

expenses for all chemicals, sprays, dusts, etc.,

used to control weeds, pests, insects, or

disease on crops and livestock.

Purchases of livestock and poultry. This item

includes all cash expenses for livestock and

poultry purchased for the place. The cost of

livestock and poultry bought and resold within

30 days is not included.

Seed cost. These expenses include all seed

purchased for planting, as well as seedlings.

Farm operator. The term "operator"

designates a person who operates a farm,

either by doing the work himself/herself or by

directly supervising the work. The operator

may be the owner, a member of the owner's

household, a hired manager, or a tenant,

renter, or sharecropper. If the operator rents

land to others or has land worked on shares by

others, he/she is considered the operator only

if the land is retained for his/her own operation. 

 In the case of partnership, only one partner is

counted as an operator. By definition, the

number of operators is the same as the

number of farms.

Farms or operators reporting. Figures for

"farms reporting" or "operators reporting"

represent the number of farms, or operators

reporting the specified item. The difference

between the total number of farms and the

number of farms reporting a particular item

represents the number of farms not having

that item.

Land in farms. The land in farms was

determined from the answers to questions 1

through 4 in section 1 of the report form (see

appendix B). The amounts of land reported as

owned and reported as rented from others

were added together, and the amount of land

reported as rented to others was subtracted

from that sum. The result represents "land in

farms." 

Land owned. This includes all land that the

operator or his/her spouse held under title,

purchased contract, homestead law, or as heir

or trustee of an undivided estate at the time of

enumeration.

Land rented from others. This includes not

only land the operator rented or leased from

others, but also land worked on shares for

others or land occupied rent free.

Land rented to others. This includes all land

that the operator rented to others and all land

assigned to others on shares or rent free. For

the most part, land rented to others represents

agricultural land, but it also includes land

rented for residential or other purposes. The

tenant is considered to be the operator of land

leased, rented, or worked on shares, even

though his/her landlord may supervise the

operations. The landlord is considered to be

the operator of only that portion of the land not

assigned to tenants.

Land use. Land in farms at the time of

enumeration is categorized according to the

way it was used during the 12-month period

between January 1 and December 31, 2002. 

The land is counted only once, even though it

may have had more than one use during the

year.
A-4 APPENDIX A 2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE

Cropland harvested. This refers to all land

from which any crop was harvested. It also

includes land in field crops that were grazed

when mature or almost mature, and land in

nonbearing fruit or nut trees and plants. Land

from which two or more crops were harvested

and which was also used for other purposes,

either before or after the crops were

harvested, was to be reported as cropland

harvested without regard to the other uses.

Other cropland. This includes all cropland on

the place that was used for pasture, and

cropland on the place that was not used for

crops or pasture. It includes land on which

there was total crop failure due to hurricane,

flood, drought, insects, fire, or other causes;

cropland lying idle; and cropland planted with

soil improvement grasses, or other cover crops

planted for improvement. It does not include

land so hilly, rocky, or wet that the cost of

improving it for cultivation would be more than

the operator could pay. Nor does it include

land in roads, streams, or swamps. 

Pasture or grazing land. This refers to all land

used for pasture or grazing, except cropland. 

It includes all woodland where livestock

pastured or grazed. It does not include

cropland, even though cattle or other livestock

may have been grazed on it.

Woodland. This includes all land that is

covered in woods or forests. It does not

include woodland pasture.

Other land. This refers to all land not included

in the other land use classifications, such as

house and other building lots, lanes, roads,

ditches, and land area of ponds and

wasteland.

Livestock and poultry. Inventory data for

livestock and poultry relate to the number on

hand at the time of enumeration. All livestock

and poultry were to be enumerated on the

place where they were at the time of

enumeration regardless of who owned them. 

Livestock on unfenced land were to be

reported as being on the place identified as the

headquarters of the person who had control

over them.

Operator characteristics. Data were

obtained to classify the operators according to

the following five characteristics:

Age of operator. Operators were classified by

age into six groups. The average age was

obtained by dividing the sum of the ages of all

operators reporting by the number reporting.

Main occupation. If the operator devoted 50

percent or more of his/her work time to

agricultural activities, his/her main occupation

was considered to be agriculture, otherwise

his/her occupation was considered to be

nonagricultural.

Residence of operator. Operators were

classified by residence according to whether or

not they lived on the farms operated. Where

all the land was rented from others or worked

on shares for others, the dwelling was

considered to be on the farm operated

provided the dwelling he/she occupied was

included in the rental agreement. In such

cases, the dwelling was not necessarily on the

land being operated. Similarly, an operator

who did not live on the land being cultivated or

grazed, but who had some agricultural

operations (other than a home garden) at

his/her dwelling, was considered to be living

on the farm.

Work off farm. The extent to which operators

rely on nonfarm sources for part of their

income is indicated by the number of days

worked off the farm during the year. Work off

the farm was defined to include work on

someone else's farm for pay as well as all

types of nonfarm jobs, businesses, and

professions whether the work was done on the

farm premises or elsewhere. Exchange work

was not included.

Years on present farm. Operators were

classified by years on present farm into four

groups. These data were based on the

question asking the year the operator began

operation of the present farm or any part of it.

Value of products sold. Data for value of

products sold were obtained for each group of

crops or main type of livestock sold from the

farm. Data were obtained for sales of field
2002 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE APPENDIX A A-5

and forage crops, vegetables, fruits and nuts,

nursery crops, poultry and poultry products,

cattle and calves, hogs and pigs, fish and

other aquaculture products, and other livestock

and livestock products. Value of sales was

also collected for chicken eggs and milk.

FARM CLASSIFICATIONS

Farms by age of operator. Enumerators

entered the operator's age, as of his/her last

birthday, on the report form. The computer

edit classified the operator's age into one of

the following age groups:

 Under 35 years 55 to 64 years

 35 to 44 years 65 years and over

 45 to 54 years 

Farms by size. Farms were classified by size

on the basis of the total land area established

in each farm. According to the census

definition, a farm is essentially an operating

unit, not an ownership tract. All land operated

or managed by one person or partnership

represents one farm. In the case of tenants,

the land assigned to each tenant is considered

a separate farm, even though the landlord may

consider the entire landholding to be one unit

rather than several separate units.

Farms by tenure of operator. In the 2002

census, farms were classified by tenure of

operator on the basis of data reported for land

owned, rented from others, worked on shares

for others, and managed for others. The same

classification has been used since 1964. 

During the processing operations, each report

form was coded to indicate whether the

operator was a full owner, part owner, or

tenant.

Full owners. Operate only land they own

Part owners. Operate land they own and also

land they rent from others

Tenants. Operate only land they rent from

others or operate on shares for others

Farms by value of agricultural products

sold. The farms were classified on the basis

of the total value of agricultural products sold. 

The total was obtained by adding the reported

values of all products sold from the farm. The

value of livestock, milk, poultry and eggs, fish,

vegetables, fruits and nuts, all field crops,

ornamental plants, and all other crops was

obtained from the operator at the time of

enumeration. The computer edit classified the

value of agricultural products sold into one of

the following groups:

 $500 to $1,199 $5,000 to $7,499

 $1,200 to $2,499 $7,500 to $9,999

 $2,500 to $4,999 $10,000 or more

RELIABILITY OF DATA

 All data compiled in this report originated

from a complete enumeration and, therefore,

are not subject to sampling variability. 

However, the data are subject to nonsampling

errors. Nonsampling errors can be attributed

to many sources: inability to identify all cases

in the actual universe; inability or unwillingness

on the part of respondents to provide correct

information; definition and classification

difficulties; differences in the interpretation of

questions; errors in recording or coding the

data obtained; and other errors of collection,

response, coverage, and estimation for

missing or misreported data.

 The accuracy of these tabulated data is

determined by the joint effects of the various

nonsampling errors. No direct measures of

these effects have been obtained; however,

precautionary steps were taken in all phases

of data collection, processing, and tabulation

of the data in an effort to minimize the effects

of nonsampling errors.
