Some figures have been revised from those published in the monthly "Cold Storage" report, primarily due to late reports or reporting and tabulation errors. Occasionally, new firms or established firms who have not been responding to our request for information, begin to report. This may cause a shift in the data which is due to the change in the number of plants reporting rather than an actual change in the level of stocks reported. Data are collected monthly from warehouses artificially cooled to a temperature of 50 degrees Fahrenheit or lower, and whose food products are normally stored for 30 days or more. All food items in these facilities are reported regardless of the number of days stored at the time of the report. Also included are specialized storage facilities meeting the 30 day requirement, such as fruit houses, dairy manufacturing plants, frozen fruit, fruit juice, and vegetable processors, and poultry and meat packing plants. Excluded are stocks in space maintained by wholesalers, jobbers, distributors, chain stores, locker plants containing individual lockers, meat packer branch houses, and frozen food processors whose entire inventories are turned over more than once a month. Government owned stocks are food products held by the Commodity Credit Corporation, Armed Forces, and other government agencies, including State and local governments. Food held in refrigerated space owned, leased, or operated by the Armed Services is not reported.
