HDR1012000120050214971500CROP VALUES National February 1997 Agricultural Statistics Service Washington, D.C. Pr 2-1(97) Crop Values 1996 Summary Crop Values Marketing Year Average Prices and Value of Production, by States and United States, 1994, 1995, and 1996 Crop Values includes average prices and value of production for major field crops and for many special crops. All prices in this report are marketing year average (MYA) prices which do not include allowances or adjustments for commodities under government loan at the end of the marketing year, commodities forfeited to the Commodity Credit Corporation, or crop deficiency and disaster payments. Estimates for 1994 and 1995 are final. Estimates for the 1996 crops are preliminary. Each State MYA price is based on sales in the months comprising its marketing year, while United States marketing year averages are based on sales during the standard U.S. marketing year for each crop. See page 2 of this report for a listing of U. S. Marketing years for selected crops. United States MYA prices for most crops are computed by weighting State MYA prices by the estimated quantity sold in each State. The exceptions are for corn, sorghum, oats, barley, wheat, rice, soybeans, flaxseed, sunflower, and upland cotton which are computed by weighting U.S. monthly prices by monthly marketings for the U.S. marketing year. State MYA prices for these monthly crops are computed by weighting monthly prices by the monthly percentages of total sales during their marketing year. See page 2 for the list of States in the monthly price program for these crops. State and U. S. preliminary 1996 MYA prices for wheat, oats, barley, corn, sorghum, soybeans, flaxseed, peanuts, rice, potatoes, dry edible beans, sunflower, and upland cotton are based on entire month price data through November 1996. Except for cotton and peanuts, allowances are made for the portion of the 1996 crops yet to be marketed during the remainder of the 1996 marketing year. State MYA prices for crops not in the monthly price program are based on annual surveys. State value of production is computed by multiplying each State price by its production. Value of production for the United States is the sum of State values for all States listed for the crop. Value of production estimates in this report relate to the crop year. These estimates should not be confused with cash receipts, which relate to sales during a calendar year irrespective of the year of production. Marketing Year Average Prices Marketing year average prices received by farmers at the United States level for the crops listed below are based on U. S. monthly prices weighted by monthly marketings during specific periods. These periods, by crop, are shown below. U. S. monthly prices are State average prices weighted by marketings during the month. The States included in monthly surveys generally account for 90 percent or more of total marketings and are shown in the table below.
