Quarterly Hogs and Pigs Inventory - United States: December 1

United States hog producers intend to have 3.12 million sows farrow during the December 2020-February 2021 quarter,
up 2 percent from the actual farrowings during the same period one year earlier, and up 1 percent from the same period
two years earlier. Intended farrowings for March-May 2021, at 3.12 million sows, are down 1 percent from the same
period one year earlier, and down slightly from the same period two years earlier.
The total number of hogs under contract owned by operations with over 5,000 head, but raised by contractees, accounted
for 48 percent of the total United States hog inventory, unchanged from the previous year.
Revisions All inventory and pig crop estimates for March 2019 through September 2020 were reviewed using final pig crop, official
slaughter, death loss, and updated import and export data. The revision made to the September 2020 all hogs and pigs
inventory was 0.8 percent. A revision of 2.7 percent was made to the June-August 2020 pig crop. The net revision made to
the June 2020 all hogs and pigs inventory was 2.9 percent. A net revision of 0.8 percent was made to the March-May
2020 pig crop. The net revision made to the March 2020 all hogs and pigs inventory was 1.9 percent. A net revision of
2.8 percent was made to the December 2019-February 2020 pig crop. The net revision made to the December 2019 all
hogs and pigs inventory was 1.2 percent. A net revision of 1.0 percent was made to the September-November 2019 pig
crop.

14 Quarterly Hogs and Pigs (December 2020) USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
Statistical Methodology
Survey Procedures: A random sample of roughly 6,000 United States producers was surveyed to provide data for these
estimates. Survey procedures ensured that all hog and pig producers, regardless of size, had a chance to be included in the
survey. Large operations were sampled more heavily than small operations. During the first half of December 2020, data
were collected from about 4,500 operations, 70.7 percent of the total sample. The data collected were received by
electronic data reporting, mail, and telephone. Regardless of when operations responded, they were asked to report
inventories as of December 1, 2020.
Estimating Procedures: Hogs and pigs estimates were prepared by the Agricultural Statistics Board after reviewing
recommendations and analysis submitted by each regional field office. National and State survey data were reviewed for
reasonableness with each other and with estimates from past years using a balance sheet. The balance sheet begins with
the previous inventory estimate, adds the estimates of births and imports, and subtracts the estimates of slaughter, exports,
and deaths. This indicated ending inventory level is compared to the Agricultural Statistics Board estimate for
reasonableness.
Revision Policy: Revisions to previous estimates are made to improve quarter to quarter relationships. Estimates for the
previous four quarters are subject to revision when current estimates are made. In December, estimates for all quarters of
the current and previous year are reviewed. The reviews are primarily based on hog check-off receipts and slaughter.
Estimates will also be reviewed after data from the Department of Agriculture five-year Census of Agriculture are
available. No revisions will be made after that date.
Reliability: Since all operations raising hogs 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, duplication, 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 following table. The "Root Mean Square Error" is a statistical measure based on past performance
and is computed using the difference between first and final estimates. The "Root Mean Square Error" for hog inventory
estimates over the past 20 quarters is 1.2 percent. This means that chances are 2 out of 3 that the final estimate will not be
above or below the current estimate of 77.5 million head by more than 1.2 percent. Chances are 9 out of 10 that the
difference will not exceed 2.1 percent.
