U.S. Hog Inventory Up Slightly U.S. inventory of all hogs and pigs on December 1, 1995, was 60.2 million head. This was slightly above December 1994 but 1 percent below the September 1, 1995, inventory. This is the highest December inventory since 1980. Breeding inventory, at 7.13 million head, was up 1 percent from both December 1, 1994 and September 1, 1995. Market hog inventory, at 53.1 million head was slightly above last year but 2 percent below last quarter. ***** Beginning March 1996 the line up of the quarterly estimating states will include Arkansas and Oklahoma but will exclude Tennessee. The report will contain an estimate for the each of the quarterly states, the 17 state region, the 33 annual state region, and the U.S. total. Mt An 4 (12-95) The September-November 1995 U.S. pig crop at 24.9 million head was 2 percent more than 1994 and 4 percent more than 1993. Sows farrowing during this period totaled 2.99 million head, only 9,000 head below last year. Litter rate increases continue at a record level, with an average of 8.34 pigs saved per litter for the September-November period. Last year the litter rate averaged 8.18 pigs per litter. Hot weather late last summer did not significantly reduce farrowings or litter rates. This is largely due to increased production by larger operations with environmentally controlled facilities which minimize the affects of adverse weather. In addition, market hog prices, relative to corn prices, provided little incentive for herd reduction. Pigs saved per litter by size of operation ranged from 7.45 for operations with 1-99 hogs to 8.64 for operations with more than 2,000 hogs and pigs. U.S. hog producers intend to have 2.92 million sows farrow during the December 1995-February 1996 quarter, 1 percent more than the actual farrowings during the same period last year and 1994. Intended farrowings for March-May 1996, at 3.31 million sows are 2 percent above 1995 but 2 percent below the 1994 period. The December-May intentions utilize 87.4 percent of the breeding herd, compared to 87.0 for actual farrowings last year and the 5 year average of 86.7 percent. The number of operations with hogs totaled 182,700 during 1995, down 12 percent from last year and 19 percent below 1993. Places with 2,000 or more hogs on hand accounted for 3 percent of the operations and 43 percent of the inventory. A year ago 2 percent of the operations had inventories over 2,000 head and accounted for 37 percent of the inventory. Considering all hog operations, currently 6 percent control 60 percent of the total inventory. Revisions All inventory and pig crop estimates for 1994 and 1995 were reviewed using final pig crop, official slaughter, import, and export data in U.S. level balance sheets. Based on the findings of this review, no revisions were made to the inventories for June and September 1995 along with the 1995 March-May pig crop. This report was approved on December 28, 1995, by the Acting Secretary of Agriculture and the National Agricultural Statistics Service's Agricultural Statistics Board.

Reliability of December 1 Hogs and Pigs Estimates Survey Procedures: A random sample of 80,290 U.S. 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 producers were sampled more heavily than small operations. Data were collected from about 72,000 operations, 89.5 percent of the total sample, during the first-half of December by mail, telephone, and face-to-face personal interviews. Regardless of when operations responded, they were asked to report inventories as of December 1. Estimation Procedures: These hogs and pigs estimates were prepared by the Agricultural Statistics Board after reviewing recommendations and analysis submitted by each State 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 to it estimates of births and imports, and subtracts 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 Commerce's 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 affects 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 table on page 28. 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 1.5 percent. This means that chances are 2 out of 3 that the final estimate will not be above or below the current estimate of 60.2 million head by more than 1.5 percent, or about 903,000 head. Chances are 9 out of 10 that the difference will not exceed 2.5 percent, or about 1,505,000 head (the 90 percent confidence level).
