HDR2012000130010127951500RELIABILITY JAN 1 CATTLE ON FEED ESTIMATES
                Reliability of January 1 Cattle on Feed Estimates

Terminology:

Cattle on feed are animals being fed a ration of grain, silage, hay and/or
protein supplement for slaughter market that are expected to produce a carcass
that will grade select or better. It excludes cattle being "backgrounded only"
for later sale as feeders or later placement in another feedlot.

Placements are cattle put into a feedlot, fed a ration which will produce a
carcass that will grade select or better, and are intended for the slaughter
market.

Marketings are cattle shipped out of feedlots to a slaughter market.

Other disappearance includes death losses, movement from feedlots to pastures
and shipments to other feedlots for further feeding.

Survey Procedures:  A random sample of U.S. producers were surveyed to provide
                    data for these estimates.  Survey procedures ensured that
all cattle on feed producers, regardless of size, had a chance to be included in
the survey.  Large producers were sampled more heavily than small operations.
About 75,000 operators were contacted during the first half of January by mail,
telephone, and face-to-face personal interviews and 86 percent of the reports
were usable.  Regardless of when operators responded, they were asked to report
inventories as of January 1.

Estimation Procedures:  These cattle on feed estimates were prepared by the
                        Agricultural Statistics Board after reviewing
recommendations and analysis submitted by each State office.  Regional and State
survey data were reviewed for reasonableness with each other and with estimates
from the previous month and/or quarter when setting the current estimates.

Revision Policy:  Revisions to previous estimates are made to improve month to
                  month and/or quarter to quarter relationships.  Estimates for
the previous month/quarter are subject to revision in all 13 States each quarter
when current quarterly estimates are made.  In January, all monthly and
quarterly estimates for the previous year are reviewed and subject to revisions.
The reviews are primarily based on slaughter data, state check-off or brand
data, and any other data that may have been received after the original estimate
was made.  Estimates will also be reviewed after data from the Department of
Commerce's five-year Census of Agriculture are available.  No revisions will be
made after that date and estimates become final.

Reliability:  Since all cattle on feed operators are not included in the sample,
              survey estimates are subject to sampling variability.  Survey
results are also subject to non-sampling errors such as omissions, duplications,
and mistakes in reporting, recording, and processing the data.  The effects of
these errors cannot be measured directly.  They are minimized through rigid
quality controls in the data collection process and through a careful review of
all reported data for consistency and reasonableness.

To assist users in evaluating the reliability of the estimates in this report,
the "Root Mean Square Error" is shown for selected items in the table below.
The "Root Mean Square Error" is a statistical measure based on past performance
and is computed using the differences between first and latest estimates.  The
"Root Mean Square Error" for the January 1 cattle on feed inventory estimate
over the past 10 years is 2.0 percent.  This means that chances are 2 out of 3
that the final estimate will not be above or below the current estimate of
10.6 million head by more than 2.0 percent, or about 212,000 head.  Chances are
9 out of 10 that the difference will not exceed 3.7 percent, or about
392,000 head (the 90 percent confidence level).  The table below also shows a
10-year record of the range of differences between first and latest estimates
for selected items.  Using estimates of all cattle on feed as an example,
changes between the first inventory estimate and the latest estimate during the
past 10 years have averaged 147,000 head, ranging from 0 to 345,000 head.
During this period, the initial inventory estimate has been below the latest
estimate 7 times, above the final estimate 2 times, and unchanged one time.
This does not imply that the January 1 estimate is likely to understate or
overstate final inventory.
