Meat Animals Production, Disposition, and Income 1998 Summary Agricultural Statistics Board

Reliability of Production, Disposition, and Income Estimates

Survey Procedures: These estimates were based on inventory, birth, and price estimates as

published in NASS cattle, hog, sheep, and agricultural prices reports, as well as information on

inshipments and marketings obtained from other sources. The NASS inventory reports are

based on probability surveys of producers. All producers, regardless of size, had a chance to be

in the survey. Large operations were sampled more heavily than small operations. Since all

operations raising cattle, hogs, or sheep are not included in the sample, survey estimates are

subject to sampling variability. At the National level, this variability, as measured by the

relative standard error, is about 1 percent for cattle, 1 percent for hogs, and 2 percent for sheep. 

Survey results are also subject to non-sampling errors such as omissions, duplication, and

mistakes in reporting, recording, and processing the data. The effects of these errors can not 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. Readers

are referred to the Survey Procedures section in the following NASS reports for further

information "Hogs and Pigs" released December 29, 1998, "Sheep and Goats" released

January 29, 1999, "Cattle" released January 29, 1999, and "Agricultural Prices" released

February 26, 1999.

Estimation Procedures: Estimation procedures for prices, beginning and ending inventories

and calf, pig, and lamb crop estimates are defined in the Estimation Procedures section of the

reports referenced above. This report provides a balance sheet for each species. The sum of

inventory on hand at the beginning of the year plus births and inshipments equals the sum of

marketings, farm slaughter, deaths, and inventory on hand at the end of the year.

Revision Policy: Revisions to previous estimates are made to improve current estimates. For

all species, previous year estimates of inshipments, marketings, farm slaughter, and deaths are

subject to revision when the current year estimates are made. Estimates are also reviewed after

data from the Department of Agriculture five-year Census of Agriculture are available. No

revisions are made after that date.
Meat Animals Production, Disposition, and Income 1998 Summary Agricultural Statistics Board

May 1999 27 NASS, USDA

Terms and Definitions

Cash Receipts: Receipts from marketings and any sale of farm-slaughtered meats. For hogs

and pigs, includes an allowance for feeder pig outshipments. U.S. prices received for cattle and

calves, hogs and pigs, and sheep and lambs were published in "Agricultural Prices", released

February 26, 1999.

Farm Slaughter: Animals slaughtered on farms primarily for home consumption. Excludes

custom slaughter for producers at commercial establishments.

Gross Income: Sum of cash receipts and value of home consumption.

Inshipments: Livestock shipped into States for feeding or breeding. Excludes animals

brought in for immediate slaughter.

Inventory Value: The value of inventory on hand as of January 1 (cattle and sheep) or

December 1 (hogs). Values per head are based on information reported by respondents to the

respective inventory surveys.

Marketings: Includes animals for slaughter market and younger animals shipped to other

States for feeding and breeding purposes. Excludes interfarm sales within the same State and

farm slaughter. Number of head marketed includes all custom slaughter, but live weight

marketed, shown in pounds, excludes custom slaughter consumed on farms where produced.

Production: Includes total live weight of animals marketed, farm slaughter, and custom

slaughter consumed on farms where produced, minus live weight of inshipments, with an

adjustment for any increase or decrease in live weight of inventory.

Value of Home Consumption: Total value of on-farm slaughter and custom slaughter

consumed on the farm where produced.
