Reliability of Trout Production Estimates Survey Procedures: Data for trout production are collected from all known producers. Individual NASS field offices maintain a list of all known trout producers and use known sources of producers to update their lists. All known trout producers are mailed a questionnaire as close as possible to January 1 and given adequate time to respond by mail. Those that do not respond by mail are telephoned or possibly enumerated in person during the middle of January. Care is exercised to ensure all operations are accounted for. Estimation Procedures: Sound statistical methodology is employed to derive the estimates from reported data. All data are analyzed for unusual values. Data from each operation are compared to their own past operating profile and to trends from similar operations. Data for missing operations were estimated based on similar operations or historical data. NASS field offices prepare these estimates by using a combination of survey indications and historic trends. Individual State estimates are reviewed by the Agricultural Statistics Board for reasonableness. Revision policy: Estimates for the previous year are subject to revision when current estimates are made. Revisions are the result of late or corrected data. Reliability: Trout production estimates are based on a census of all known active producers and therefore, have no sampling variability. However, estimates are subject to errors such as omissions, duplication, and mistakes in reporting, recording, and processing the data. While these errors cannot be measured directly, they are minimized through strict quality controls in the data collection process and a careful review of all reported data for consistency and reasonableness. Terms and Definitions Used for Trout Production Estimates 12" or Longer Fish: Grown commercially for food, usually weighing from three-fourths to one and one-half pounds. 6"-12" Fish: Usually stockers that weigh less than three-fourths of a pound. They may be sold as foodsize fish. Fingerlings: Fish usually from 1 to 6 inches long. Live Haulers: Person who buys live fish on the farm and functions as a middleman. Chemicals: Includes losses from pesticides or herbicide poisoning. Disease: Includes losses from both parasitic and bacterial caused sickness. Drought: Includes losses from lack of water causing oxygen depletion. Floods: Includes losses from too much water washing the fish away. Predators: Includes losses from mink, otters, birds, and other animals. Theft/Vandalism: The unauthorized removal of fish and/or the destruction of property causing a loss of fish by intentional acts by persons known or unknown.
