Vegetables:  Final Estimates by States, 1992-97, U.S. Department of
Agriculture, Agricultural Statistics Board, National Agricultural Statistics
Service, Statistical Bulletin No. 946.
                                                                   
Introduction:  This bulletin  presents final estimates, including revisions
made by the Agricultural Statistics Board (ASB), for the production years 1992
through 1997.  Acreage, yield, production, price, and value data were published
during calendar years 1993-98 in periodic ASB reports.  Data included in this
publication provide a historic record and a benchmark for current estimates.

Procedures:  Revisions were made after a thorough review of the original survey
data and all additional data now available, including the 1997 Census of
Agriculture. Other data considered included marketing agreement records,
recorded truck and rail movement, quantities inspected, and quantities used by
processors.  The current acreages were evaluated with historic totals to ensure
comparability with past Census relationships. The 1992-97 estimates shown
herein are considered final and will not be revised again.  

Most of the data in this Statistical Bulletin were revised from earlier
published levels.  The most significant revisions were made to the 1997 crop. 
Where necessary, data for earlier years were also revised.  Shown below are the
revisions at the National level for the major commodities that have multiple
States in their respective programs.

                      WEIGHTS and MEASURES

The following table on weights, measures, and conversion factors covers the
vegetables in this report.  It does not cover all containers for any one
product.

The information has been assembled from State schedules of legal weights,
various sources within the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and other Government
agencies. For many vegetables, there is a considerable variation in weight per
unit of volume due to differences in variety or size of commodity, condition
and tightness of pack, degree to which the container is heaped, etc. Effort has
been made to select the most representative and fairest average for each
product. For those commodities which develop considerable shrinkage, the point
of origin weight or weight at harvest has been used.

The approximate or average weights as given in this table do not necessarily
have official standing as a basis for packing or as grounds for settling
disputes. Not all of them are recognized as legal weight. The table was
prepared chiefly for use of workers in the U.S. Department of Agriculture who
have need of conversion factors in statistical computations.
