              Reliability of March 1, 1995, Grain Stocks Estimates

Survey Procedures:  The grain stocks estimates in this report are based on

                    surveys conducted during the first two weeks of March.
Separate surveys were conducted to obtain the on-farm and off-farm estimates.
The on-farm stocks survey included about 70,000 operators selected in a manner
that ensures that all operations in the U.S. had a chance to be selected.  These
producers were asked to provide the total quantities of grain on their
operations as of March 1, 1995.  This included all whole grains and oilseeds
stored whether for feed, seed, or sale as well as any stored under a Government
program.

The off-farm stocks survey is an enumeration of all known commercial grain
storage facilities.  This includes nearly 12,000 facilities with about
8.50 billion bushels of storage capacity.  An effort is made to obtain a report
from every facility.  Reports of stock holdings are normally received from
operations covering about 90 percent of the capacity.  Estimates are made for
missing facilities to make the survey complete.

Estimation Procedures:  On-farm and off-farm survey data are reviewed at the

                        State and national levels for reasonableness,
consistency with historical estimates, and current crop size.  After estimates
are made for on-farm and off-farm stock inventories, the total of these two are
combined and evaluated using the balance sheet approach.  This method utilizes
other sources of data to measure the reasonableness of the stocks estimates.
Estimates of production, imports, exports, crushings, milling, and all other
recorded uses of grain and oilseeds are reviewed to make sure beginning stocks,
production and utilization, and ending stocks are within reasonable balance and
present the best possible estimate of stocks.

Revision Policy:  On-farm and off-farm stocks are subject to revision the

                  quarter following initial publication and again in the
following December 1 "Grain Stocks" report published in January each year.
Revisions can be made when late reports are received, errors are detected in
reporting and calculating, and production estimates are revised.  Estimates will
also be reviewed after data for the 5-year Census of Agriculture, conducted by
the Department of Commerce, are available.  No revisions will be made after that
date.

HDR2012000110040330950830RELIABILITY MAR. 1, 95 GRN STKS ESTS CONT.
Reliability:  Reliability of the on-farm and off-farm stocks must be treated

              separately because the survey design for the two surveys are
drastically different.  The on-farm stocks estimates are subject to sampling
variability because all operations holding on-farm stocks are not included in
the sample.  This variability, as measured by the relative standard error at the
U.S. level, is approximately 1.2 percent for corn, 1.7 percent for soybeans, and
2.3 percent for all wheat.  This means that chances are approximately 95 out of
100 that survey estimates for stocks will be within plus or minus 2.4 percent
for corn, 3.4 percent for soybeans, and 4.6 percent for all wheat of the value
that could be developed by averaging the estimates produced from all possible
samples selected from the same population and surveyed using the same
procedures.  The relative standard errors of the estimates for sorghum, barley,
and oats are 5.3, 3.9, and 2.9, respectively.  Sampling errors cannot be applied
directly to the on-farm stocks published in this report to determine confidence
intervals since the Agricultural Statistics Board estimates represent a
composite of information such as the balance sheet components.

Survey estimates are also subject to non-sampling errors such as omission,
duplication, imputation for missing data, and mistakes in reporting, recording,
and processing the data.  Off-farm, as well as on-farm stocks, are subject to
these types or errors.  These errors cannot be measured directly, but they are
minimized through rigid quality controls in the data collection process and a
careful review of all reported data for consistency and reasonableness.
