Reliability of September 1, 2007 Grain Stocks Estimates
Survey Procedures: The grain stocks estimates in this report are based on surveys conducted during thefirst 2 weeks of September. Separate surveys are conducted to obtain the on-farm and off-farmestimates. The on-farm stocks survey is a probability survey that includes approximately66,000 operators selected from a list of producers that ensures all operations in the U.S. have a chance tobe selected. These producers are asked to provide the total quantities of grain stored on their operationsas of September 1, 2007. This includes all whole grains and oilseeds stored whether for feed, seed, orsale as well as any stored under a government program.
The off-farm stocks survey is an enumeration of all known commercial grain storage facilities. Thisincludes approximately 9,300 facilities with about 8.77 billion bushels of storage capacity. An effort ismade to obtain a report from all facilities. Reports of stock holdings are normally received fromoperations covering about 90 percent of the capacity. Estimates are made for missing facilities to makethe survey complete.
Estimation Procedures: On-farm and off-farm survey data are reviewed at the State and national levelsfor reasonableness, consistency with historical estimates, and current crop size. After estimates are madefor on-farm and off-farm stocks, the totals of these two are combined and evaluated using the balancesheet approach. This method utilizes other sources of data to check the reasonableness of the stocksestimates. Estimates of production, imports, exports, crushings, millings, and all other recorded uses ofgrains and oilseeds are reviewed to make sure beginning stocks, production, utilization, and endingstocks 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 initialpublication 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 calculations,and production estimates are revised. Estimates will also be reviewed following the 5-year Census ofAgriculture. No revisions to these years will be made after that date.
Reliability: Reliability of the on-farm and off-farm stocks must be treated separately because the surveydesigns for the two surveys are very different. The on-farm stocks estimates are subject to samplingvariability 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 4.0 percent for corn,4.9 percent for soybeans, and 2.7 percent for all wheat. This means that chances are approximately95 out of 100 that survey estimates for stocks will be within plus or minus 8.0 percent for corn,9.8 percent for soybeans, and 5.4 percent for all wheat of the value that could be developed by averagingthe estimates produced from all possible samples selected from the same population and surveyed usingthe same procedures. The relative standard errors for sorghum, barley, and oats are 22.0, 3.4, and3.2 percent, respectively.
Survey indications are also subject to non-sampling errors such as omission, duplication, imputation formissing data, and mistakes in reporting, recording, and processing the data. Off-farm, as well as on-farmstocks, are subject to these types of errors. These errors cannot be measured directly, but they areminimized through rigid quality controls in the data collection process and a careful review of allreported data for consistency and reasonableness.
