Cen V1 (5-14) New Jersey State and County Data Volume 1 • Geographic Area Series • Part 30 AC-17-A-30 Issued April 2019 United States Department of Agriculture Sonny Perdue, Secretary National Agricultural Statistics Service Hubert Hamer, Administrator Acknowledgments The U.S. Department of Agriculture's National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) conducted the 2017 Census of Agriculture, analyzed the data, and prepared this and other reports. The census provides a comprehensive picture of U.S. agriculture in 2017, and NASS recognizes and appreciates that many individuals and organizations contributed to the effort. Most importantly, the success of the agriculture census depends directly on the cooperation of farmers and ranchers across the country. Recognizing that participating in the census is their responsibility and gives them a voice in their future, agricultural producers took the time to provide the information requested. We are grateful to every producer who participated in the 2017 census. Also essential were the many partners who communicated about the census and encouraged producers to respond. Farm organizations, stakeholder groups, agriculture media, community-based organizations, and land grant and other universities helped build awareness of the census and its importance to producers, their communities, and U.S. agriculture as a whole. We appreciate their help in reaching all kinds of agricultural operations, thereby ensuring a comprehensive census. Various USDA agencies and State departments of agriculture provided valuable advice during the planning, data collection, and processing phases of the census, as well as critical assistance at the local level to farmers and ranchers completing census forms. Our thanks to them and to the enumerators who collected data locally through NASS' cooperative agreement with the National Association of State Departments of Agriculture. Members of the Advisory Committee on Agriculture Statistics offered advice on census questions, as well as their strong and consistent support and thoughtful recommendations for census and other programs. Representatives of public and private organizations provided input as well. Finally, we acknowledge and appreciate the support services of the U.S. Department of Commerce National Processing Center in Jeffersonville, IN.

Introduction HISTORY The 2017 Census of Agriculture is the 29th Federal census of agriculture and the fifth conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS). The U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of the Census conducted the census of agriculture for 156 years (1840- 1996). The 1997 Appropriations Act contained a provision that transferred the responsibility for the census of agriculture to NASS. The history of collecting data on U.S. agriculture dates back as far as President George Washington, who kept meticulous statistical records describing his own and other farms. In 1791, President Washington wrote to farmers requesting information on land values, crop acreages, crop yields, livestock prices, and taxes. Washington compiled the results on an area extending roughly 250 miles from north to south and 100 miles from east to west which today lies in Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia, where most of the young country's population lived. In effect, Washington's inquiry was an attempt to fulfill the need for sound agricultural data for a nation that was heavily reliant on the success of agriculture. Such informal inquiries worked while the Nation was young, but were insufficient as the country expanded. In 1839, Congress appropriated $1,000 for "carrying out agricultural investigations, and procuring agricultural statistics." The first agriculture census was taken in 1840 as part of the sixth decennial census of population. As the country expanded and agriculture evolved, the decade between censuses became too long an interval to capture the changes in agricultural production. After the 1920 census, the census interval was changed to every five years resulting in a separate, mid-decade census of agriculture that was conducted in 1925, 1935, and 1945. The agriculture census continued as part of the decennial census through 1950. From 1954 to 1974, the census was taken for the years ending in 4 and 9. In 1976, Congress authorized the census of agriculture for 1978 and 1982 to adjust the data reference year so it coincided with other economic censuses. This adjustment in timing established the census of agriculture on a 5-year cycle collecting data for years ending in 2 and 7. USES OF CENSUS DATA The census of agriculture provides a detailed picture of U.S. farms and ranches every five years. It is the leading source of uniform, comprehensive agricultural data for every State and county or county equivalent. Census of agriculture data are routinely used by agriculture organizations, businesses, State departments of agriculture, elected representatives and legislative bodies at all levels of government, public and private sector analysts, the news media, and colleges and universities. Census of agriculture data are frequently used to: • Show the importance and value of agriculture at the county, State, and national levels; • Provide agricultural news media and agricultural associations benchmark statistics for stories and articles on U.S. agriculture and the foods we produce; • Compare the income and costs of production; • Provide important data about the demographics and financial well-being of producers; • Evaluate historical agricultural trends to formulate farm and rural policies and develop programs that help agricultural producers; • Allocate local and national funds for farm programs, e.g. extension service projects, agricultural research, soil conservation programs, and land-grant colleges and universities; • Identify the assets needed to support agricultural production such as land, buildings, machinery, and other equipment; • Create an extensive database of information on uncommon crops and livestock and the value of those commodities for assessing the need to develop policies and programs to support those commodities; • Provide geographic data on production so agribusinesses will locate near major production areas for efficiencies for both producers and agribusinesses; • Measure the usage of modern technologies such as conservation practices, organic production, renewable energy systems, internet access, and specialized marketing strategies; • Develop new and improved methods to increase agricultural production and profitability; • Plan for operations during drought and emergency outbreaks of diseases or infestations of pests; • Analyze and report the current state of food, fuel, and fiber production in the United States; and • Make energy projections and forecast needs for agricultural producers and their communities. LEGAL AUTHORITY The 2017 Census of Agriculture is required by law under the "Census of Agriculture Act of 1997," Public Law 105-113 (Title 7, United States Code, Section 2204g). The law directs the Secretary of Agriculture to conduct a census of agriculture every fifth year. The census of agriculture includes each State, Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands, and American Samoa. FARM DEFINITION The census definition of a farm is any place from which $1,000 or more of agricultural products were produced and sold, or normally would have been sold, during the census year. The definition has changed nine times since it was established in 1850. The current definition was first used for the 1974 Census of Agriculture and was used in each subsequent census of agriculture. This definition is consistent with the definition used for current USDA surveys. The farm definition used for each U.S. territory varies. The report for each territory includes a discussion of its farm definition. DATA COMPARABILITY Most commodity data are comparable between the 2017 and 2012 censuses. Changes were made to the 2017 census that affect the comparability for some data items. Demographic data, for the 2017 Census of Agriculture, are not fully comparable to 2012 and earlier census data due to terminology and definition changes. Dollar figures are expressed in current dollars and have not been adjusted for inflation or deflation. In general, data for censuses since 1974 are not fully comparable with data for 1969 and earlier censuses due to changes in the farm definition. See Appendix B, General Explanation and Census of Agriculture Report Form, Data Changes for a detailed discussion of these changes. REFERENCE PERIOD Reference periods for the 2017 Census of Agriculture were similar to those used in the 2012 Census of Agriculture. Reference periods used were: • Crop production is measured for the calendar year, except for a few crops such as avocados, citrus, and olives for which the production year overlaps the calendar year. See Appendix B, General Explanation and Census of Agriculture Report Form for details. • Livestock, poultry, and machinery and equipment inventories, and market value of land and buildings are measured as of December 31 of the census year. • Crop and livestock sales, other farm-related income, direct sales income, income from federal farm programs, Commodity Credit Corporation loans, Conservation Reserve, Farmable Wetlands, Conservation Reserve Enhancement, and Wetlands Reserve Program participation, farm expenses, chemical and fertilizer use, irrigated acreage, and hired farm labor data are measured for the calendar year. TABLES AND APPENDICES Chapter 1. Table 1 shows State-level historical data through the 1987 census and tables 2 through 52 show detailed State-level data usually accompanied by historical data from the 2012 census. Tables 53 through 70 show detailed producer and farm operation data for the 2017 census only. Tables 71 through 77 show detailed State-level data cross-tabulated by several categories for the 2017 census only. Chapter 2. County-level data are presented in 57 tables in 2 different table formats - county and county summary. Most tables include 2012 historical data. County tables include general data for all counties within the State. The county names are listed in alphabetical order in the column headings. County summary tables provide comprehensive data for all counties reporting a data item. Appendix A. Provides information about data collection and data processing activities and discusses the statistical methodology used in conducting and evaluating the census. Table A summarizes coverage, nonresponse, and misclassification adjustment for selected items for the State. Table B provides reliability estimates of State totals for selected items. Table C summarizes coverage, nonresponse, and misclassification adjustment for selected items at the county level. Table D provides total number of American Indian or Alaska Native farm producers both on and off reservations by county. Appendix B. Includes definitions of specific terms and phrases used in this publication, including items in the publication tables that carry the note "see text." It also provides facsimiles of the report form and instruction sheet used to collect data. RESPONDENT CONFIDENTIALITY In keeping with the provisions of Title 7 of the United States Code, no data are published that would disclose information about the operations of an individual farm or ranch. All tabulated data are subjected to an extensive disclosure review prior to publication. Any tabulated item that identifies data reported by a respondent or allows a respondent's data to be accurately estimated or derived, was suppressed and coded with a 'D'. However, the number of farms reporting an item is not considered confidential information and is provided even though other information is withheld. SPECIAL EFFORTS DIRECTED AT MINORITIES NASS implemented several activities to improve coverage of minority farm producers. These activities included, but were not limited to: • Obtaining mail lists from organizations likely to contain names and addresses of minority farm producers; • Conducting pre-census promotion activities that targeted women, American Indian and Alaska Native, Asian, Black and African American, and Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish origin farm producers. SPECIAL STUDIES AND CUSTOM TABULATIONS Special studies such as the 2018 Irrigation and Water Management Survey and the 2018 Census of Aquaculture are part of the census program and provide supplemental information to the 2017 Census of Agriculture in the respective subject area. Results are published on the internet. Custom-designed tabulations may be developed when data are not published elsewhere. These tabulations are developed to individual user specifications on a cost-reimbursable basis and shared with the public. Quick Stats, NASS's online database that allows data users to build customized queries, should be investigated before requesting a custom tabulation. All special studies and custom tabulations are subject to a thorough disclosure review prior to release to prevent the disclosure of any individual respondent data. Requests for custom tabulations can be submitted via the internet from the NASS home page, by mail, or by e-mail to: Data Lab National Agricultural Statistics Service Room 5305A, Stop 2054 1400 Independence Avenue, S.W.

Census of Agriculture Methodology The purpose of a census is to enumerate all objects with a defined characteristic. For the census of agriculture, that goal is to account for "any place from which $1,000 or more of agricultural products were produced and sold, or normally would have been sold, during the census year." To do this, NASS creates a Census Mail List (CML) of agricultural operations that potentially meet the farm definition, collects agricultural information from those operations, reviews the data, corrects or completes the requested information, and combines the data to provide information on the characteristics of farm operations and farm producers at the national, State, and county levels. In this appendix, these census processes are described. THE CENSUS POPULATION The Census Mail List The National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) maintains a list of farmers and ranchers from which the CML is compiled. The goal is to build as complete a list as possible of agricultural places that meet the farm definition. The CML compilation begins with the list used to define sampling populations for NASS surveys conducted for the agricultural estimates program. Each record on the list includes name, address, telephone number, and email plus additional information that is used to efficiently administer the census of agriculture and agricultural estimates programs. NASS builds and improves the list on an ongoing basis by obtaining outside source lists. Sources include State and federal government lists, producer association lists, seed grower lists, pesticide applicator lists, veterinarian lists, marketing association lists, and a variety of other agriculture-related lists. NASS also obtains special commodity lists to address specific list deficiencies. These outside source lists are matched to the NASS list using record linkage programs. Most names on newly acquired sources are already on the NASS list. Records not on the NASS list are treated as potential farms until NASS can confirm their existence as a qualifying farm. Staff in NASS regional and field offices routinely contact these potential farms to determine whether they meet the farm definition. For the 2017 Census of Agriculture, NASS made a concerted effort to work with community-based organizations not only to improve list coverage for minorities but also to increase census awareness and participation. List building activities for developing the 2017 CML started in 2014 by updating list information from respondents to the 2012 Census of Agriculture. Between 2015 and 2017, NASS conducted a series of National Agricultural Classification Surveys (NACS) on approximately 1.6 million records, which included nonrespondents from the 2012 census and newly added records from outside list sources. The NACS report forms collected information that was used to determine whether an operation met the farm definition. If the definition was met, the operation was added to the NASS list and subsequently to the CML. Addressees that were nonrespondents to a NACS were also added to the CML and identified with a special status code. Measures were taken to improve name and address quality. Additional record linkage programs were run to detect and remove duplicate records both within each State and across States. List addresses were processed through software programs that utilize the United States Postal Service's National Change of Address System and the Locatable Address Conversion System to improve mail delivery. Records on the list with missing or invalid phone numbers were matched against a nationally available telephone database to obtain as many phone numbers as possible. To reduce costs, operations with characteristics that indicated they were unlikely to be farms, according to the farm definition, were removed from the list. The official CML for the 2017 Census of Agriculture was established on September 3, 2017. The list contained 2,999,098 records. Of these, 2,259,750 records were thought to meet the NASS farm definition and 739,348 were potential farm records, which included NACS nonrespondents, other records added to the CML by the NASS regional field offices after the record linkage process, and late adds to the CML that were not included in any previous NACS or State screening survey. Not on the Mail List (NML) Extensive efforts are directed toward developing a CML that includes all farms in the U.S. However, some farms are not on the list, and some agricultural operations on the list are not farms. NASS uses its June Area Survey (JAS) to quantify the number and types of farms not on the CML. The records in the JAS that are not on the CML are said to be in the Not-on-the- Mail List (NML) domain. If a JAS record in the NML domain is determined to be a farm during the census, it is an NML farm. The NML farms are used to measure coverage associated with the census. The JAS is based on an area frame, which covers all land in the U.S. and includes all farms. The land in the U.S. is stratified by characteristics of the land. A probability sample of segments is drawn within each stratum for the JAS. Segments of approximately equal size are delineated within each stratum and designated on aerial photographs. The JAS sample of segments is allocated to strata to provide accurate measures of acres planted to widely grown crops, farm numbers, and inventories of cattle. Sampled segments in the JAS are personally enumerated. Each operation identified within a segment boundary is known as a tract. The 2017 JAS sample was increased to improve the farm counts for operations that produced specialty commodities or had socially disadvantaged or minority producers. The total JAS sample consisted of 13,972 segments of which 3,012 were additional segments. This set of additional segments is referred to as the Agricultural Coverage Evaluation Survey (ACES) segments. The ACES segments were selected using a multivariate sampling design that targeted specific items at the U.S. level. The 2017 JAS consisted of sample segments from all States, with the exception of Alaska where NASS does not maintain an area frame. During the JAS/ACES enumeration process, each tract is identified as either agricultural or non-agricultural. Each JAS/ACES agricultural tract is identified as a farm or non-farm in June based on the farm definition of $1,000 of sales or potential sales of agricultural products. Non-agricultural tracts are further classified into categories: with farm potential, with unknown farm potential, or with no farm potential. The names and addresses collected in the 2017 JAS/ACES were matched to the CML. Those from the 2017 JAS/ACES that did not match were determined to be in the NML domain and sent a yellow census report form so that they could be differentiated from the green report form sent to those addressees on the CML. Instructions on the census report form directed any respondent who received duplicate forms to complete the CML form and to mail all duplicate forms back together. Those who returned a CML and an NML form had been misclassified as NML and were removed from the NML domain. The initial NML mailout consisted of 42,430 records. A total of 41,787 NML records were summarized of which 2,799 records were confirmed to be NML and in-scope. The farm/nonfarm status of each NML domain operation was determined based on the reported data in the census form. An operation in the NML domain that was determined to be a farm is referred to as an NML farm. Characteristics of NML farms and their producers provided a measure of the undercoverage of farms on the CML. The percentage of farms not represented on the CML varied by State. In general, NML farms tended to be small in acreage, production, and sales of agricultural products. Farm operations were missing from the CML for various reasons, including the possibility that the operation started after development of the CML, the operation was so small that it did not appear in any agriculture-related source list, or the operation was misclassified as a nonfarm prior to census mailout. The CML was used with the NML in a capture- recapture framework to represent all farming operations across all States in the JAS sample. DATA COLLECTION OUTREACH AND PROMOTIONAL EFFORTS NASS planned and executed a multi-phase strategic communications campaign for the 2017 Census of Agriculture, to increase the level of awareness and response among all U.S. agricultural producers. * Phase 1 ran from December 2016 - June 2017. It raised awareness about the census and list building, encouraged producers to sign up in response to NASS mailings and at community, association, and other stakeholder meetings where NASS partners reached out. * Phase 2 ran from July 2017 - December 2017. It notified farm producers and agricultural organizations that the census would be mailed in December, and encouraged communications regarding the census. * Phase 3 ran from December 2017 - July 2018. It focused on census data collection with messaging urging response, reminding producers that it was not too late to respond. * Phase 4 ran from August 2018 - February 2019. It thanked producers for their participation and NASS partners for their support, and informed all of the February 2019 data release plan. The communications campaign focused on these primary areas: partnership building, local-level outreach, public relations, media relations, paid media, and social media. Some external support was provided by a private communications agency (i.e. primarily assistance with paid media/advertising strategy and ad creation) and a freelance writer. The unifying force behind the 2017 communications campaign was the theme "Your Voice. Your Future. Your Opportunity." This was accompanied by supporting messages and artwork that created a consistent look and feel for all census communications. All messages and materials served the purpose of inspiring action: Grow Your Farm Future - Shape Your Farm Programs - Boost Your Rural Services - Fill out your Census of Agriculture - Do your part to be counted - The Census of Agriculture is Your Voice, Your Future, Your Opportunity. Partnership and Local-Level Outreach At the national level, NASS officials met with leaders from dozens of agricultural organizations, State Departments of Agriculture, and other USDA agencies to successfully secure their support in promoting the census among their constituencies. Stakeholders partnered with NASS to promote the 2017 Census of Agriculture through publications (e.g. newsletters), special mailings, speeches, social media, websites, and other communications. In addition, through grassroots-level outreach and efforts, NASS partnered with a number of community-based organizations to reach minority and limited- resource farmers and ranchers. National-level outreach was encouraged and mirrored at the regional, State, and local levels. Among the highlights of these partnership efforts was the production of multiple television and radio public service announcements featuring the U.S. Secretary of Agriculture, State secretaries, directors, and commissioners of agriculture and leaders from community-based organizations. Coverage of American Indian and Alaska Native Farm Producers To maximize coverage of American Indian and Alaska Native agricultural producers, special procedures were followed in the census. A concerted effort was made to get individual reports from every American Indian and Alaska Native farm or ranch producer in the country. If this was not possible within some reservations, a single reservation-level census report was obtained from knowledgeable reservation officials. These reports covered agricultural activity on the entire reservation. NASS staff reviewed these data and removed duplication with any data reported by American Indian or Alaska Native producers who responded on an individual census report form. Additionally NASS obtained, from knowledgeable reservation officials, the count of American Indian and Alaska Native producers (on reservations) who were not counted through individual census report forms, but whose agricultural activity was included in the reservation-level report form. Table D, American Indian and Alaska Native Producers: 2017 provides the number of producers (1) reported as American Indian or Alaska Native in the race category, either as a single race or in combination with other races, on the individual census report forms (for up to four per farm) and (2) identified as American Indian or Alaska Native producers farming on reservations by reservation officials. The count from the individual report forms is summarized in the "Individually reported" column. It includes up to four producers on or off reservations. The "Other" column provides counts of producers on reservations as reported by a reservation or tribal official. The "Total" column is simply a sum of the "Individually reported" and the "Other" columns. Tables in other parts of the publication count the reservation-level reports as single farms. Public Relations In the public relations arena, NASS worked with internal and external stakeholders to equip them with communications tools and resources to deliver the census communications message to their audiences. NASS utilized its Intranet and the Partner Tools page on the census website to deliver materials to the 12 regional and 46 field offices as well as to external stakeholders. The materials included but were not limited to: customizable news releases, public service announcement scripts, and a PowerPoint template; Secretary of Agriculture video public service announcements, and drop-in advertisements; informational, instructional, and testimonial videos; website buttons and banners; brochures in multiple languages; flyers; posters; FAQ sheets, talking points, and more. In addition, at the national level, NASS issued six news releases during data collection (three more were produced before data collection to inform and prepare producers) citing department and agency spokespeople, published half a dozen timely and relevant pieces to the USDA blog highlighting the census, and conducted three social media campaigns. These public relations efforts at the national and local-levels helped ensure that NASS' message about the census was continually in the media, including print and online publications, a variety of social media, radio, and some television programs. Media outlets included both those specializing in agriculture and more general outlets. Paid Media Even with increasingly limited budgets and resources, NASS was able to apply a small portion of funds toward paid media. For the 2017 Census of Agriculture, NASS strategically advertised in regional print publications, online, and with national agriculture news services (i.e. TV, radio) to bolster reach both in general and within geographically-specific, previously under-represented populations and lower response areas. DATA COLLECTION Method of Enumeration Data collection was accomplished primarily by mail, Computer-Assisted Self Interview (CASI) on the Internet, and personal enumeration for special classes of records in the census operations. Personal enumeration (interviewing) involved the use of both Computer-Assisted Telephone Interview (CATI) and Computer-Assisted Personal Interview (CAPI) data collection instruments. Enumerators at the five NASS Data Collection Centers conducted CATI data collection. In addition, enumerators under contract with NASS through the National Association of State Departments of Agriculture (NASDA) conducted phone and personal interviews with respondents. For the 2017 Census of Agriculture, NASS implemented a pre-notification strategy in an effort to increase awareness, improve overall responses, and encourage respondents to report early to avoid continued correspondence. All records with an e-mail address received an e-mail message marketing the improved web form and announcing the census mail packets were coming. Report Forms Four versions of report forms were used for the 2017 Census of Agriculture: * General form (17-A100) * Short form (17-A200) * Hawaii form (17-A101) * American Indian form (17-A300) The general form facilitated reporting crops and livestock most commonly grown and raised in the U.S. The short form expedited reporting specific crops or livestock for pre-identified farms and ranches in the U.S. The Hawaii form targeted crops and livestock specifically grown or raised on farms and ranches in Hawaii. The American Indian form focused on crops and livestock for farms and ranches on reservations in Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah. All of the report forms allowed respondents to write in specific commodities that were not prelisted on their report form. Report Form Mailings Pre-notification of census data collection began on November 17, 2017. Approximately 600,000 producers with an active e-mail address on the census mail list received a message informing them of the upcoming census data collection period and encouraging them to utilize the new census web form. Between November 27 and November 30, 2017, approximately 1 million producers received a letter with their survey code and instructions for completing their census online. The letter encouraged producers to report online early to avoid receiving mail and phone follow-up. Approximately 3 million mail packets were mailed in December 2017 and January 2018. Each packet contained a cover letter, instruction sheet, a labeled report form, and a return envelope. The Census Bureau's National Processing Center (NPC) in Jeffersonville, IN was contracted to perform mail packet preparation, initial mailout, and two follow-up mailings to nonrespondents. The initial mailout was followed by a thank-you reminder postcard that was delivered in January 2018 to all operations that received mail packets. First follow-up mail packets were mailed in mid-February 2018 to approximately 1.5 million nonrespondents. Second follow-up mail packets were mailed in mid- March 2018 to approximately 1 million nonrespondents. Nonresponse Follow-up Operating concurrently with NPC's mail data collection efforts, NASS Data Collection Centers targeted selected groups of census nonrespondents for telephone enumeration. NASS regional field offices targeted selected groups of census nonrespondents for in-person enumeration. These efforts were referred to as: * Must Case Follow-up * American Indian Producer Follow-up * National Nonresponse Follow-up * Not on Mail List (NML) Follow-up Must Case Follow-up. Must cases are known large or unique operations, the absence of which could have significantly affected the accuracy of census results. For the 2017 Census of Agriculture, 125,697 records were categorized as Must cases. Each active Must operation was accounted for by mail receipt, phone interview, or personal enumeration; if an operation was no longer in business, its nonfarm status was documented. Call centers conducted CATI calling of nonrespondent Must cases from March 2018 through May 2018, after the initial and first follow-up mailings. Following the CATI calling, the remaining nonresponse Must cases were assigned to regional field offices for personal enumeration. Because of the potential importance of Must cases, they were all accounted for and therefore not eligible for nonresponse weighting adjustment. American Indian Producer Follow-up. The American Indian report form (17-A300) was mailed to all operations in Arizona, New Mexico and Utah thought to have an American Indian producer. It was included in the initial mailout, but due to poor mail response, a personal enumeration data collection strategy was utilized with no additional mail follow-up. A concerted effort was made to get individual reports from every American Indian farm producer in the country. If this was not possible within a reservation, a single reservation- level census report was obtained from knowledgeable reservation officials. These reports covered agricultural activity on the entire reservation. NASS staff reviewed these data and removed any duplicate data reported by American Indian producers from that reservation who responded on an individual census report form. Additionally NASS obtained, from knowledgeable reservation officials, the count of American Indian farm producers (on the reservations) who were not counted through individual census report forms, but whose agricultural activity was included in the reservation-level report form. National Nonresponse Follow-up (Excludes Must Records). The National Nonresponse follow-up activity was designed to focus nonresponse follow-up in a manner that would both reflect the characteristics of the nonresponders and increase response rates. In April 2018, a sample of 249,521 nonrespondents was selected from the remaining 864,260 nonrespondents using a stratified random design. The strata were based on State, county, size of farm, type of farm, producer race, and propensity to respond. Beginning in mid-April 2018 and continuing through July 2018, extensive efforts were made to collect data for the sampled records, including an additional CASI push, autodial calls, CATI, and CAPI. Records in the same stratum received the same set of collection methods. Of the 80,504 responses, 51,846 records were identified as being in-scope, resulting in a weighted farm count of 143,847 from the sample. Not-on-the-Mail List (NML) Follow-up. To account for farming operations not on the CML, NASS used its 2017 JAS sample from the NASS area frame, augmented with the ACES segments. Because the NASS area frame covers all land in the U.S. with the exception of Alaska, it includes all farms. As previously described, NASS conducted a record linkage operation between the CML records and the records from the 2017 JAS/ACES. Those 2017 JAS records that did not match records on the CML were designated as "Not-on-the-Mail List" (NML) records. These records were mailed a yellow census form so that it could be differentiated from the green forms mailed to CML records. The NML records were mailed at the same time as the census mailing and received the same follow-up procedures as the census mailing through the first follow-up in mid-February 2018. Beginning in March 2018, CATI was used for nonresponse follow-up for NML nonrespondents. REPORT FORM PROCESSING Data Capture The Census Bureau's National Processing Center (NPC) in Jeffersonville, IN was contracted to process returned mail packets. NASS staff on site at the NPC provided technical guidance and monitored NPC processing activities. All report forms returned to the NPC were immediately checked in, using bar codes printed on the mailing label, and removed from follow-up report form mailings. All forms with any data were scanned and an image was made of each page of a report form. Optical Mark Recognition (OMR) was used to capture categorical responses and to identify the other answer zones in which some type of mark was present. Data entry operators keyed data from the scanned images using OMR results that highlighted the areas of the report forms with respondent entries. The keyer evaluated the contents and captured pertinent responses. Ten percent of the captured data were keyed a second time for quality control. If differences existed between the first keyed value and the second, an adjudicator handled resolution. The decision of the adjudicator was used to grade the performance of the keyers, who were required to maintain a certain accuracy level. The images and the captured data were transferred to NASS's centralized network and became available to NASS analysts on a flow basis. The images were available for use in all stages of review. Editing Data Captured data were processed through a computer formatting program that verified that records were valid - that the record ID number was on the list of census records, that the reported counties of operation and production were valid, and other related criteria. Rejected records were referred to analysts for correction. Accepted records were sent to a complex computer batch edit process. Each execution of the computer edit in batch mode consisted of records from only one State and flowed as the data were received from NPC, the NASS Computer-Assisted Self Interview (CASI), or the Computer- Assisted Telephone Interview (CATI) applications. The computer edit determined whether a reporting operation met the qualifying criteria to be counted as a farm (in-scope). The edit examined each in-scope record for reasonableness and completeness and determined whether to accept the recorded value for each data item or take corrective action. Such corrective actions included removing erroneously reported values, replacing an unreasonable value with one consistent with other reported data, or providing a value for an item omitted by the respondent. To the extent possible, the computer edit determined a replacement value. Strategies for determining replacement values are discussed in the next section. Operations failing to meet the qualifying criteria for being classified as a farm were categorized as out-of-scope for the census. Records that NASS had reason to believe might have been erroneously classified as out-of-scope (indications of recent and/or significant agricultural activity reported on NASS surveys, for example) were referred to analysts for verification. The edit systematically checked reported data section-by-section with the overall objective of achieving an internally consistent and complete report. NASS subject-matter experts had previously defined the criteria for acceptable data. Problems that could not be resolved within the edit were referred to an analyst for intervention. Prior to the census mail-out, NASS established a group of analysts in a Census Editing Unit in the National Operations Center in St. Louis, MO who examined the scanned images, consulted additional sources of information, and determined an appropriate action. Regional field office analysts also participated using an interactive version of the edit program to submit corrected data and immediately re-edit the record to ensure a satisfactory solution. Short Form Editing From the CML, 400,000 records were selected to receive a short form; this short form was derived from the full census report form by reducing a number of sections to a 'total' question - for example, instead of asking the respondent to report the acreage for each specific type of fruit or vegetable, the short form only asked for total fruit acreage or total vegetable acreage. In some cases, the same questions were asked on the general form, in which case the edit treated the short form responses as though they were incomplete general forms, as described in the previous paragraphs. In other cases, several items on the general form were collapsed - for example, total acres of Christmas trees and short rotation woody crops were asked as a single item on the short form, instead of separately as on the general form. In such cases, different approaches were taken in the edit to create a general form item or items from the short-form specific items. Any short form record that reported values above a certain threshold (in practice this threshold was 0 for almost all items) for these short-form- specific questions was 'flagged' by the edit; these records were later called back and the respondent asked for additional information about the items reported - for example, a producer reporting 10 acres of fruit on the short form was called back and asked for the total, bearing, and nonbearing acres for each type of fruit grown, as was asked on the general form. If the producer was successfully contacted and these additional data collected, the information was added to the record as additional reported data, and the edit was 'reset to original' - that is, the effects of the previous edit were undone - and the record was reedited with the new additional information. A flag was passed to the edit so that the short form record was not flagged for callback in such cases. In many cases, of course, it was not possible to recontact the respondent. In such cases, a flag was passed to the edit system, and the record was unlocked and available for review. Imputing Data The edit determined the best value to impute for reported responses that were deemed unreasonable and for required responses that were absent. If an item could not be calculated directly from other current responses, the edit determined whether acreage, production, or inventory items had been reported for that farm on a recent NASS crop or livestock survey. For producers who had not changed in five years, demographics such as race and gender were taken from the previous census. Administrative data from the Farm Service Agency were used for a few items, such as Conservation Reserve Program acreage. When deterministic edit logic and previously-reported data sources were unable to provide a current value, data from a reporting farm of similar type, size, and location were considered. In cases where automated imputation was unable to provide a consistent report, the record was referred to an analyst for resolution. Separate system processes were established to efficiently provide data from a similar farm to the edit when donor imputation was required. The farm characteristics used to define similarity between a recipient record and its donor record were determined dynamically by the edit logic. Euclidean distance was used for similarity computations, with each contributing similarity characteristic scaled appropriately. The most similar farm based on this criterion (the "nearest neighbor") was identified and returned to the edit for use as a donor. The calculated distance between the centroids of the principal counties of production of the donor and recipient was always included as one of the measures of similarity. To provide donors to the automated edit, a pool of successfully edited records was maintained for each section of the report form. These donor pools began with 2012 census data, reconfigured to emulate 2017 data and then edited using 2017 logic. Data from the 2015 Census Content Test were similarly remapped and edited before being added to the original donor pools. As 2017 records were successfully processed, they were added to the donor pools, which maintained the most recent data for each farm. Donor pools were updated approximately every other week, as determined by edit processing schedules. After several updates, all initial data records were dropped, leaving only 2017 records in the donor pools. After each update, donor pool records were grouped into strata containing farms in the same State of similar type and size, using a data-driven algorithm to define strata. Certain American Indian farms were treated as a separate group, effectively having their own donor pool. In response to each donor request issued by the edit, a dedicated system process would search the appropriate stratum and respond with the most similar donor, while giving preference to more recent donors. In relatively rare instances where it was unable to provide a donor, the donor selection process issued an appropriate failure message to the edit. Imputation failures occurred for several different reasons. The requirement that an imputed value be positive could have ruled out all available donors, as could have the necessity for the donor record to satisfy a particular constraint - say, that the donor record has cattle, but no milk cows. In general, an imputation failure occurred if there were no satisfactory donors in the same profile as the report being edited. Records with imputation failures were either held until more records were available in the donor pool or referred to an analyst. In addition, when such a failure occurred in finding a donor for expenditure data, donor pool averages were provided in lieu of an individual donor, wherever possible. This "failover" utility was first introduced for the 2012 census imputation process, and significantly reduced the number of imputation failures among the expenditure and labor variables. During the early stages of editing, records requiring imputation for production (and hence yields) of field crops or hay, land values, or certain expenditure variables, were set aside or "parked." These records were edited when the donor pools contained only 2017 records, ensuring that 2017 data were used in the imputations for the variables. After receiving a donor's data, the edit substituted the values into the edited record. In many cases, the donor record's data value was scaled using another data field specified in the edit logic. In such cases, the size of the auxiliary field's value in the edited record, relative to its value in the donor record, was used to appropriately scale the donor record's value for the field to be imputed. The imputed data were then validated by the same edit logic to which reported data were subject. Since imputation was conducted independently for each occurrence, reports requiring multiple imputations may have drawn from multiple donors. Substantial changes were introduced to the Personal Characteristics section of the form in 2017. Information on an additional (fourth) producer was collected, and several new questions were added for each producer - specifically, whether or not the person was considered a "principal producer," whether the person was a spouse of a principal producer, and whether the person was involved in any of five types of decisions with respect to the operation. These changes necessitated a new imputation process for records reporting three or more persons as producers. Records with one or two persons reported as producers had these data edited and imputed using the decision logic table edit and donor pool imputation process. Records with three or more persons reported as producers, and for which it was determined that these data were inconsistent or missing, had these data imputed using a fully conditional specification method. During the edit for records reporting three or more producers, the items needing imputation were marked, and the record was flagged. Periodically the data for these records (both the items needing to be imputed and the other variables needed by the model) were pulled and run through the imputation program. The resulting imputed values were loaded back to the records, and the records were made available for review. This process was conducted 19 times for the CML, and 6 times for the NML, during census production editing. Data Analysis The complex edit ensured the full internal consistency of the record. Successfully completing the edit did not provide insight as to whether the report was reasonable compared to other reports in the county. Analysts were provided an additional set of tools, in the form of listings and graphs, to review record-level data across farms. These examinations revealed extreme outliers, large and small, or unique data distribution patterns that were possibly a result of reporting, recording, or handling errors. Potential problems were investigated and, when necessary, corrections were made and the record interactively edited again. When NASS summarizes data from the census of agriculture, each individual report is typically assigned to a single "principal" county. The principal county is the county in which the majority of an operation's agricultural products are produced, as reported by the producer. For large operations that have significant production in multiple counties, their reports may be broken up into multiple source counties to more accurately summarize the data. Similarly, for large farms operating in more than one State, separate report forms are completed by State in order to assign the proper portion of the farm's total agricultural production to each State in which the farm operates. ACCOUNTING FOR UNDERCOVERAGE, NONRESPONSE, AND MISCLASSIFICATION Although much effort was expended making the CML as complete as possible, the CML did not include all U.S. farms, resulting in list undercoverage. Some farm producers who were on the CML did not respond to the census, despite numerous attempts to contact them. In addition, although each operation was classified as a farm or a nonfarm based on the responses to the census report form, some were misclassified; that is, some nonfarms were classified as farms and some farms were classified as nonfarms. NASS's goal was to produce agricultural census totals for publication at the county level that were fully adjusted for list undercoverage, nonresponse, and misclassification. In 2012 NASS used capture-recapture methodology to adjust for undercoverage, nonresponse, and misclassification. This same methodology was implemented for the 2017 Census of Agriculture. To implement capture-recapture methods, two independent surveys were required. The 2017 Census of Agriculture (based on the CML) and the 2017 JAS (based on the area frame) were those two surveys. Historically, NASS has been careful to maintain the independence of these two surveys. A second assumption was that the proportion of JAS farms with a given set of characteristics captured by the census was equal to the proportion of U.S. farms with those same characteristics captured by the census. For a farm to be identified as a farm, and thus captured by the census, it must be on the CML, respond to the census report form and, based on the census response, be classified as a farm. Only those nonrespondents included in the nonresponse sample had an opportunity to be captured and had a probability pS of being included in the sample; respondents prior to drawing the nonresponse sample had pS = 1. Thus, the capture probability pC is of interest: pC = p(CML, Responded, Farm on Census|Farm) pS Two types of classification error can occur. First, a farm can be misclassified as a nonfarm. This type of misclassification is accounted for in determining the probability of capture pC. The second type of classification error results when a response to the census is classified as a farm operation when it does not meet the definition of a farm. That is, some farms on the CML may be misclassified from their census report response and may be nonfarms. To account for the misclassification of nonfarms as farms, the probability of a farm on the census being classified correctly must be estimated; that is, pCCFC = p(Farm | Farm on Census) where CCFC represents Correct Census Farm Classification. To adjust for undercoverage, nonresponse, and misclassification, each CML record classified as a farm based on its response to the census report form was given a weight of the ratio of the estimated probability of correct classification of a farm on the census and the estimated probability of capture where the hat symbol (^) denotes an estimate). To estimate the number of farms with a given set of characteristics, the weights of CML records responding as farms on the census and having that set of characteristics were summed. This estimator is referred to as the capture-recapture estimator (CR): where F is the set of all CML records classified as farms based on their responses to the census report form. To estimate the capture and correct census farm classification probabilities, a matched dataset consisting of JAS records and census records was created. Records in the 2017 JAS sample were matched to the 2017 census using probabilistic record linkage. The CML records that matched with JAS tracts represent the Census Sample. Note: The Census Sample is a subset of the CML records and includes only those records matching a JAS tract. Both agricultural and non-agricultural tracts were included in the matched dataset. Resolving Farm Status The farm status based on census responses to either the CML or NML census data collection and the JAS agreed in most cases; these records are referred to as having resolved farm status. However, in other cases, a record was identified as a farm (nonfarm) on the JAS and as a nonfarm (farm) by the census through either the CML or the NML. Such records are said to have conflicting or unresolved farm status. An operation identified as a farm is referred to as in-scope; an operation identified as a nonfarm is referred to as out-of-scope. From the set of matched records, two groups with conflicting farm status were identified: 1) in-scope JAS records that were out-of-scope on the census and 2) census in-scope and JAS out-of-scope records. The records with conflicting farm status were sent to NASS regional field offices for review. In each case, efforts were made to determine whether (1) the status had changed between June and December when the census was conducted, (2) the JAS farm status was correct, (3) the census farm status was correct, (4) the records were incorrectly matched, or (5) the farm status could not be resolved. Not all of the records with conflicting farm status could be resolved. In 2017, 8.1 percent of the records in the Census Sample had unresolved farm status. The probability an operation is a farm was estimated for the records with unresolved farm status. Using the 2017 matched dataset, a logistic model of the probability an operation is a farm based on the records with resolved farm status was developed; that is, the operations where the farm (or nonfarm) status agreed between the JAS and the census were used to develop a missing data model, which was then used to resolve farm status. The final missing data model was used to impute the probability that each of the agricultural operations with unresolved farm status is a farm. For the resolved farms and nonfarms, the probability of the operation being a farm was 1 and 0, respectively. Five-fold cross-validation was used to develop and to compare competing models. The accuracy of the model was thereby not overstated due to fitting and evaluating the model on the same set of data. To ensure that each of the cross-validation samples covered the U.S., the five cross-validation samples of JAS segments were drawn within State-stratum combinations. Characteristics of the JAS tracts were considered as potential covariates in the model. Because limited information is available for JAS nonfarm tracts, other covariates considered included county-level socio- demographic variables from the most recent U.S. population census, segment- level data from the Cropland Data Layer, the county-level rural-urban code, state-level response rates, an indicator for records that are thought to be out-of-business, and an indicator for records in the national nonresponse sample. The sample weight associated with each JAS tract was multiplied by the probability of being a farm. This adjusted weight was used in all subsequent modeling. Capture Probabilities Recall that, for a farm to be identified as a farm, and thus captured, by the census, it must be on the CML, respond to the census report form and, based on the census response, be classified as a farm. These adjustments are dependent. Further, those nonrespondents at the time the nonresponse sample was drawn had a known probability pS of being included in the sample; respondents before the sample was drawn had pS = 1. Therefore, the probability of capture pC may be written as pC = p(CML, Responded, Farm on Census|Farm) pS = p(CML|Farm)p(Responded|CML, Farm)p(Farm on Census|CML, Responded, Farm) pS The probability of being included in the sample pS is known for all responding farms. The other terms in the probability of capturing a farm depend on the characteristics of the farm. Using five-fold cross-validation, three logistic models were developed based on the matched dataset. The first model estimated the probability of a farm being on the CML. The second model estimated the probability that a farm on the CML responded to the census report form. The final model estimated the probability that a farm that was on the CML and responded to the census was identified as a farm based on its response. The probability that a farm is captured by the census of agriculture is then the product of the three conditional probabilities that a farm is on the CML, responds, and is identified as a farm. Note 1: Responses were required for Must cases. These operations were only excluded in modeling the probability of a farm responding given that it was on the CML. Note 2: Because Alaska is not included in the JAS and thus has no area frame, the Alaskan agricultural operations were not included in the capture- recapture process. No adjustments were made for undercoverage or misclassification. To account for nonresponse, the CML records were divided into three groups: (1) the Must records, (2) the Criteria Records, and (3) the remaining CML records. The must records received a weight of one, thereby receiving no adjustment for nonresponse. The probability of response for each of the other two groups was the proportion of responders within the group. Each record within the group was then given a weight equal to the reciprocal of the probability of response. Misclassification An operation is misclassified if: (1) it meets the definition of a farm, but is classified as a nonfarm on the census or (2) it does not meet the definition of a farm, but is classified as a farm on the census. The first type of misclassification is accounted for when modeling the probability of capture. An adjustment is still needed for the misclassification of nonfarms as farms. As with farm status and capture, the probability of this misclassification depends on an operation's characteristics. Thus, a final logistic model was developed. Given that an operation was classified as a farm on the CML, the probability of its being a farm was modeled based on its characteristics. Five-fold cross-validation was used to ensure that the model was not over-fitted. CALIBRATION Each operation identified as being in-scope on the CML was given a weight equal to the probability of misclassification divided by the probability of capture. This weight accounted for undercoverage, nonresponse, both types of misclassification, and the nonresponse sample. The record weighting processes were initially applied at the State level to produce adjusted estimates of farm numbers and land in farms for 63 different categories of 8 characteristics of the farm operation or the farm producer -- value of agricultural sales (9); age (2); female; race (3); Hispanic origin of principal farm producer; 4 sales categories for each of 10 major commodities (40); and farm type groups (7). The State-level number of farms and land in farms were two additional adjusted estimates, resulting in 65 categories. To reduce the intercensal variation at the State level, the State targets were smoothed by averaging the 2017 estimates from capture-recapture and the published 2012 State estimates with the restrictions that the smoothed targets were within two standard errors of the capture-recapture estimates. The smoothed State targets were rescaled so that they summed to the national capture-recapture estimates. These State estimates were general purpose in that they did not provide any control over expected levels of commodity production of the individual farm operation. As a result of this limitation, the procedures could have over- adjusted or under-adjusted for commodity production. To address this, a second set of variables, known as commodity targets, was added to the calibration algorithm. These targets were commodity totals from administrative sources or from NASS surveys of nonfarm populations (e.g. USDA Farm Service Agency program data, Agricultural Marketing Service market orders, livestock slaughter data, cotton ginning data). The introduction of these commodity coverage targets strengthened the overall adjustment procedure by ensuring that major commodity totals remained within reasonable bounds of established benchmarks. Each State was calibrated separately. The calibration algorithm addressed commodity coverage. The algorithm was controlled by the 65 State farm operation coverage targets and the State commodity coverage targets. Because calibration targets are estimates subject to uncertainty, NASS allowed some tolerance in the determination of the adjusted weights. Rather than forcing the total for each calibration variable computed using the adjusted weights to equal a specific amount, NASS allowed the estimated total to fall within a tolerance range. Tolerance ranges for the farm operation coverage targets were determined differently from the commodity targets. The tolerance range for the 65 State farm operation coverage targets was the estimated smoothed State total for the variable plus or minus one standard error of the capture-recapture estimate. This choice limited the cumulative deviation from the estimated total for a variable when State totals were summed to a U.S. total. Commodity coverage targets with acceptable ranges were established based on the administrative source for each State. Ranges were not necessarily symmetric around the target value. To ensure that all subdomains for which NASS publishes summed to their grand total, integer weights were produced by a discrete calibration algorithm. This eliminated the need for rounding individual cell values and ensured that marginal totals always added correctly to the grand total. If a weight was initially not in the interval [1,6], it was trimmed so that in was in that interval. That is, adjusted weights less than 1 were set to 1, and those greater than 6 were set to 6. The remaining non-integer weights were then rounded sequentially to reduce the distance of the estimated totals from the targets. Calibration adjustments began with the computation of a priority index for each record. The priority index was the absolute value of the gradient of the relative error associated with increasing or decreasing a record's weight by one. The record with the highest priority index was then selected as a candidate to increase or decrease its weight by one to reduce the cumulative distance from the targets as measured by the relative error. If the new value produced an improvement and satisfied the range restrictions, the weight was updated and new priorities were assigned; otherwise, the record with the next highest priority index was processed. This process was iteratively performed until convergence was attained. Because census data collection was assumed to be complete for very large and unique farms, their weights were controlled to 1 during the calibration adjustment process. For all other farms, the final census record weights were forced to be an integer number in the interval [1, 6]. The calibration process considered all targets simultaneously through the priority index. Although calibration was seldom able to adjust weights so that all State targets were met, all targets were brought collectively as close to the targets as possible. The proportions of selected census data items that were due to coverage, response, and classification adjustments are displayed in Tables A and C. DISCLOSURE REVIEW After tabulation and review of the aggregates, a comprehensive disclosure review was conducted. NASS is obligated to withhold, under Title 7, U.S. Code, any total that would reveal an individual's information or allow it to be closely estimated by the public. Farm counts are not considered sensitive and are not subject to disclosure controls. Cell suppression was used to protect the cells that were determined to be sensitive to a disclosure of information. Based on agency standards, data cells were determined to be sensitive to a disclosure of information if they failed either of two rules. The threshold rule failed if the data cell contained less than three operations. For example, if only one farmer produced turkeys in a county, NASS could not publish the county total for turkey inventory without disclosing that individual's information. The dominance rule failed if the distribution of the data within the cell allowed a data user to estimate any respondent's data too closely. For example, if there are many farmers producing turkeys in a county and some of them were large enough to dominate the cell total, NASS could not publish the county total for turkey inventory without risking disclosing an individual respondent's data. In both of these situations, the data were suppressed and a "(D)" was placed in the cell in the census publication table. These data cells are referred to as primary suppressions. Since most items were summed to marginal totals, primary suppressions within these summation relationships were protected by ensuring that there were additional suppressions within the linear relationship that provided adequate protection for the primary. A detailed computer routine selected additional data cells for suppression to ensure all primary suppressions were properly protected. These data cells are referred to as complementary suppressions. These cells are not themselves sensitive to a disclosure of information but were suppressed to protect other primary suppressions. A "(D)" was also placed in the cell of the census publication table to indicate a complementary suppression. A data user cannot determine whether a cell with a (D) represents a primary or a complementary suppression. Regional field office analysts reviewed all complementary suppressions to ensure no cells had been withheld that were vital to the data users. In instances where complementary suppressions were deemed critically important to a State or county, analysts requested an override and a different complementary cell was chosen. CENSUS QUALITY The purpose of the census of agriculture is to account for "any place from which $1,000 or more of agricultural products were produced and sold, or normally would have been sold, during the census year." To accomplish this, NASS develops a CML that contains identifying information for operations that have an indication of meeting the census definition, develops procedures to collect agricultural information from those records, establishes criteria for analyst review of the data, creates computer routines to correct or complete the requested information, and provides census estimates of the characteristics of farms and farm producers with associated measures of uncertainty. It is not likely that either the CML includes all operations that meet the definition of a farm or that all those that do meet the definition of a farm respond to the census inquiry. The goal is to publish data with a high level of quality. The quality of a census may be measured in many ways. One of the first indicators used is a measure of the response to the census data collection as it has generally been thought that a high response rate indicates more complete coverage of the population of interest. This is a valid assumption if the enumeration list, the CML here, has complete coverage of the population of interest. In the case of the census of agriculture, the definition requiring advance knowledge of sales makes achieving a high level of coverage difficult. To ensure that the census of agriculture is as complete as possible, records are included that might not meet the census definition of a farm - in fact, almost 50 percent more records than the anticipated number of qualifying farm operations were included in the 2017 CML. A second indicator of quality then is the coverage of the farm population by the CML. Other indicators of quality relate to the accuracy and completeness of the data, and the validity of the procedures used in processing the data. In some cases, NASS was able to produce measures of quality - such as the response rate to the data collection, the coverage of the census mail list, and the variability of the final adjusted estimates. In other cases, measures were not produced but descriptions of procedures that NASS used to reduce errors from the procedures were subsequently provided. Census Response Rate The response rate is one indicator of the quality of a data collection. It is generally assumed that if a response rate is close to a full participation level of 100 percent, the potential for nonresponse bias is small, although this has been questioned in the literature. The response rate for the 2017 Census of Agriculture CML was 71.8 percent, as compared with the 2012 Census of Agriculture's response rate of 74.6 percent and 78.2 percent for the 2007 Census of Agriculture. The 2017 Census of Agriculture's response rate used the fourth response rate formula (RR4) from the American Association of Public Opinion Research's Response Rate Standard Definitions manual: where Cadj = number of fully and partially completed records, excluding replicated records R = number of explicit refusals NC = number of non-contacted operations known to be eligible O = number of other types of nonrespondents Replicated = number of replicated records U = number of operations of unknown eligibility e(U) = estimated number of operations of unknown eligibility assumed to be eligible Records were classified into the above variables based on the combination of their active status (AS) codes, in-scope status, and replication status. Active status refers to the eligibility status of records for selection on the CML. All replicated records were considered to be a form of nonresponse and were classified into other nonrespondents; in-scope status was considered immaterial. Certain active status classifications indicated records of unknown agricultural status. These classifications included records to be removed from the CML but had data from outside sources indicating agricultural activity, new records from outside data sources, nonrespondents and refusals to the NACS, records for regional office handling only, and records with Farm Service Agency or Conservation Reserve Program data on operations that are not owned by the principal producer. These records were stratified (grouped) based on their probabilities of being in-scope had they responded. The estimated number of in-scope nonrespondents was calculated for the hth stratum (group) by the following formula: where e(Uh) = estimated number of operations of unknown eligibility assumed to be eligible in the hth group Cin-scope,h = the number of completed and in-scope census records in the hth group Ch = the number of completed census records in the hth group Uh = number of operations of unknown eligibility in the hth group Census Coverage As a side-product of the statistical adjustment used to account for undercoverage, nonresponse of farms on the CML, and misclassification of responses to the census, the proportion of the adjustments due to each of those factors can be derived. The percentages of final census estimates due to adjustments for undercoverage, nonresponse, and misclassification as well as the total percent adjustment for selected items are displayed in Tables A and C. MEASURED ERRORS IN THE CENSUS PROCESS Although the census of agriculture does not inherently rely on a sample, NASS used a national nonresponse sample as part of its follow-up efforts in 2017. In addition to the uncertainty introduced by the nonresponse sample, NASS uses statistical procedures in compiling the CML, in its data collection procedures, in data editing and processing, and in compiling the final data. Additionally, it uses statistical procedures to both measure errors in the various processes and in making adjustments for those errors in the final data. One example is the statistical process used to account for undercoverage, nonresponse of farms on the CML, and misclassification of responses to the census. The basis of the undercoverage adjustment is the capture-recapture procedure that uses the area sample enumeration from the JAS. The largest contributors to error in the census estimates are due to the adjustments for nonresponse, undercoverage, misclassification, calibration, and integerization. Variability in Census Estimates due to Statistical Adjustment In conducting the 2017 Census of Agriculture, efforts were initiated to measure error associated with the adjustments for farm operations that were not on the CML, for farm operations that were on the CML but did not respond to the census report form, and for farms and nonfarms that were misclassified as nonfarms and farms, respectively, for calibration. These error measurements were developed from the standard error of the estimates at the national, State, and county levels and were expressed as coefficients of variation (CVs) at the national and State levels and as generalized coefficients of variation (GCVs) at the county levels. The standard error of an estimate is an estimate of the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the estimator. Because Alaska was modeled separately from the other States, the variances of a national-level data item for this State was computed separately and added to the variance of that data item for the rest of the U.S. The standard error was then the square root of the total variance. In each case, standard errors were computed using an approach based on a combination of group jackknife and bootstrap methodologies. To conduct the jackknifing, k = 10 mutually exclusive and exhaustive groups of JAS segments were formed. The groups were selected using a stratified random design so that each group reflected the survey design, including State and agricultural strata within a State. The weight of record i in jackknife group j is CRi(j )for j = 1, 2, ..., k. Based on these weights, a group jackknife estimator to estimate the variance would account for the uncertainty associated with modeling the capture-recapture probabilities. To account for the additional uncertainty due to calibration, the weights within each jackknife group were transformed through bootstrap simulation; these transformed weights are called calibration-adjusted-jackknife weights. The full dataset, which is composed of the records of all responding farms on the CML, is calibrated as described in the Calibration section, and the final calibration-adjusted weight of record i is denoted by wi. For each record i in jackknife group k, the calibration-adjusted-jackknife weights of that record can be approximated as wi(j)=ai(j)CRi(j) where ai(j) ~ N(1,( wi - 1) / wi). The bootstrap process simulated the value of the adjustment ai(j) for each record on the CML to obtain the calibration-adjusted-jackknife weights. For a given data item, such as the number of farms, the estimate T(j) was computed at the specified geographical level, such as nation, State, or county, using the (k - 1) groups remaining after deleting the calibration-adjusted jackknife group j. Estimates of the variance and standard error associated with the estimator Ti are then, respectively, Increasing k improves the estimate of the variance but, as k increases, the observations become too sparse to reflect the survey design and to provide countrywide coverage. Ten (10) calibration-adjusted jackknife groups were used to provide standard errors for 2017 State and national estimates. For the estimate of the number of farms with a given set of characteristics, only the CML records with those characteristics were used to obtain the overall estimate as well as the estimates from each calibration-adjusted jackknife group. Note that the calibrated jackknife groups were only constructed once, and different subsets of the records were used to compute estimates and standard errors for the data items. The CV is a measure of the relative amount of error associated with the sample estimate: where SE(Ti) is the standard error of the capture-recapture estimate for data item i. This relative measure allows the reliability of a range of estimates to be compared. For example, the standard error is often larger for large population estimates than for small population estimates, but the large population estimates may have a smaller CV, indicating a more reliable estimate. For county-level estimates, a generalized coefficient of variation (GCV) was determined for each estimate within a State. A generalized variance function relates a function of the variance of an estimator to a function of the estimator. Within a State, the standard error of an estimate for a data item was often found to be linearly related to the estimate of that item with an intercept of zero. Based on this modeled relationship, the GCV is the slope of the line relating the standard error to the estimate, multiplied times 100 to represent the GCV as a percentage. The standard error is the product of the CV (or GCV for county estimates) and the estimate divided by 100. As an example, if the GCV for a State is 25 percent and a county's estimate is 4, then the standard error is 25(4)/100 = 1. The standard error of an estimated data item from the census provides a measure of the error variation in the value of that estimated data item based on the possible outcomes of the census collection, including variants as to who was on the CML, who returned a census form, who was misclassified either as a farm or as a nonfarm, and the uncertainty associated with calibration and integerization. With 95 percent confidence, an estimate is within two standard errors of the true value being estimated. For this example, with 95 percent confidence, the estimate of 4 is within 2(1) = 2 of the true county value. Table B presents the fully adjusted estimates with the coefficient of variation for selected items. NONMEASURED ERRORS IN THE CENSUS PROCESS As noted in the previous section, sampling errors can be introduced from the coverage, nonresponse and misclassification adjustment procedures. This error is measureable. However, nonsampling errors are imbedded in the census process that cannot be directly measured as part of the design of the census but must be contained to ensure an accurate count. Extensive efforts were made to compile a complete and accurate mail list for the census, to elicit response to the census, to design an understandable report form with clear instructions, to minimize processing errors through the use of quality control measures, to reduce matching error associated with the capture- recapture estimation process, and to minimize error associated with identification of a respondent as a farm operation (referred to as classification error). The weight adjustment and tabulation processes recognize the presence of nonsampling errors; however, it is assumed that these errors are small and that, in total, the net effect is zero. In other words, the positive errors cancel the negative errors. Respondent and Enumerator Error Incorrect or incomplete responses to the census report form or to the questions posed by an enumerator can introduce error into the census data. Steps were taken in the design and execution of the census of agriculture to reduce errors from respondent reporting. Poor instructions and ambiguous definitions lead to misreporting. Respondents may not remember accurately, may estimate responses, or may record an item in the wrong cell. To reduce reporting and recording errors, the report form was tested prior to the census using industry accepted cognitive testing procedures. Detailed instructions for completing the report form were provided to each respondent. Questions were phrased as clearly as possible based on previous tests of the report form. Computer-assisted telephone interviewing software included immediate integrity checks of recorded responses so suspect data could be verified or corrected. In addition, each respondent's answers were checked for completeness and consistency by the complex edit and imputation system. Processing Error Processing of each census report form was another potential source of nonsampling error. All mail returns that included multiple reports, respondent remarks, or that were marked out of business and report forms with no reported data were sent to an analyst for verification and appropriate action. Integrity checks were performed by the imaging system and data transfer functions. Standard quality control procedures were in place that required that randomly selected batches of data keyed from image be re- entered by a different operator to verify the work and evaluate key entry operators. All systems and programs were thoroughly tested before going on- line and were monitored throughout the processing period. Developing accurate processing methods is complicated by the complex structure of agriculture. Among the complexities are the many places to be included, the variety of arrangements under which farms are operated, the continuing changes in the relationship of producers to the farm operated, the expiration of leases and the initiation or renewal of leases, the problem of obtaining a complete list of agriculture operations, the difficulty of contacting and identifying some types of contractor/contractee relationships, the producer's absence from the farm during the data collection period, and the producer's opinion that part or all of the operation does not qualify and should not be included in the census. During data collection and processing of the census, all operations underwent a number of quality control checks to ensure results were as accurate as possible. Item Nonresponse All item nonresponse actions provide another opportunity to introduce measurement errors. Regardless of whether it was previously reported data, administrative data, the nearest neighbor algorithm, the fully conditional specification method, or manually imputed by an analyst, some risk exists that the imputed value does not equal the actual value. Previously reported and administrative data were used only when they related to the census reference period. A new nearest neighbor was randomly selected for each incident to eliminate the chance of a consistent bias. Record Matching Error The process of building and expanding the CML involves finding new list sources and checking for names not on the list. An automated processing system compared each new name to the existing CML names and "linked" like records for the purpose of preventing duplication. New names with strong links to a CML name were discarded and those with no links were added as potential farms. Names with weak links, possible matches, were reviewed by staff to determine whether the new name should be added. Despite this thorough review, some new names may have been erroneously added or deleted. Additions could contribute to duplication (overcoverage) whereas deletions could contribute to undercoverage. As a result, some names received more than one report form, and some farm producers did not receive a report form. Respondents were instructed to complete one form and return all forms so the duplication could be removed. Another chance for error came when comparing June Area Survey tract producer names to the CML. Area producers whose names were not found on the CML were part of the measure of list incompleteness, or NML. Mistakes in determining overlap status resulted in overcounts (including a tract whose producer was on the CML) or undercounts (excluding a tract whose producer was not on the CML). All tracts determined to not be on the list were triple checked to eliminate, or at least minimize, any error. NML tract producers were mailed a report form printed in a different color. In order to attempt to identify duplication, all respondents who received multiple report forms were instructed to complete the CML version and return all forms so duplication could be removed. Records in the 2017 JAS were matched to the 2017 census using probabilistic record linkage. The records of operations with differing farm status were sent out to be reviewed by NASS regional field offices. If farm status could not be resolved, the probability of an operation being a farm was imputed using a missing data model. The uncertainty associated with this estimate, with the exception of model uncertainty, was accounted for, but errors not found through this process were not. Table A.

Data obtained by reservation officials. Appendix B. General Explanation and Census of Agriculture Report Form DEVELOPMENT OF THE CENSUS REPORT FORMS Before the release of the 2012 Census of Agriculture's results, NASS had already begun preparations for the 2017 Census of Agriculture. The first team assembled was the 2017 Census Content Team, which evaluated the content and report form design for the census. They reviewed the 2012 report forms, solicited input from both internal and external customers, and developed criteria for determining acceptable content for inclusion in the 2017 Census of Agriculture. The team tested the effectiveness of the 2017 report forms for various modes of data collection (mail, telephone, personal interview, and electronic data reporting) and made recommendations to NASS senior executives for final determination. Throughout development NASS sought the advice and input from the data user community. Integral partners included the Advisory Committee on Agriculture Statistics, State Departments of Agriculture and other State government officials, Federal agency officials, land grant universities, agricultural trade associations, media, and various community-based organizations. NASS conducted a three phase content test (OMB No. 0535-0243) of the general and short census of agriculture forms. Phase 1 of this test began in early 2016. The report forms were mailed to a nationwide sample of approximately 30,000 farm producers (23,500 producers received the general form and 6,500 received the short form). The report forms were tested for question phrasing, form design and flow, respondent comprehension, and regional differences. NASS used mail and phone follow-up to conduct this phase of the test. For Phase 2 NASS conducted two rounds of cognitive interviews to discover problems and issues farm producers had with the report forms they received during Phase 1. Phase 3 was a test of the internet form to evaluate the feasibility of the online submission system. Content test results helped determine final report form content and design. A sample copy of the report form and instruction sheet is included in this appendix. DATA CHANGES Following are descriptions of the report form changes and their effect on the publication tables. Crop Data Changes Added items include: • Aronia berries • Cherimoyas • Chickpeas • Coffee - first time collected in States other than Hawaii • Elderberries • Indian or traditional corn • Raspberries, other Deleted items include: • Pineapples not harvested • Sugarcane not harvested • Berry acres harvested and not harvested • Grain storage capacity Other changes include: • Ginger root added to the vegetable section; removed from the field crop section • Pineapple added to fruit, nuts, and berries section; removed from the field crop section • Taro root added to the vegetable section; removed from the field crop section • Berry acreage for 2017 was collected as bearing age and nonbearing age, similar to all other fruit; 2012 data were collected as harvested and not harvested acres Items combined with another item(s) on the 2017 report form that were reported individually on the 2012 report form include: • Small grain dry hay • Wild dry hay • Other tame dry hay excluding small grain hay and wild hay Livestock and Poultry Data Changes Deleted items include: • Hogs and pigs used or to be used for breeding • Ewes one year old or older • Number of hair sheep or wool-hair crosses • Inventory of owned horses and ponies Other changes include: • Modified cattle in feedlots for slaughter market to exclude cows and bulls. Data series now includes steers and heifers only. Number of cattle sold or moved from feedlots also excludes cows and bulls. Economic, Energy, Land Use Practices, Selected Practices, Organic, Producer Characteristics, and Type of Organization/Legal Status Data Changes Added items include: • Number of acres irrigated in the past five years • Military service • Producers' involvement in day-to-day, land use, livestock, financial management, and estate planning decisions • Number of male producers • Demographic characteristics for four persons (producers) • Sales to retail, institutions, and food hubs • Value-added sales • Expenses for cover crop seed as a subcategory of seeds, plants, vines, trees, etc. • Expenses for medical supplies, veterinary, and custom services for livestock • Have a barn built before 1960 • Aware of right to appeal an adverse program decision to USDA's National Appeals Division Deleted items include: • Principal operator characteristics • Percent of household income from the farm operation Items reported individually on the 2012 and 2017 report forms that were published individually in 2012 and combined as Other crops in 2017: • Grains and oilseeds delivered under a production contract • Vegetables, melons, and potatoes delivered under a production contract • Other crops delivered under a production contract DEFINITIONS AND EXPLANATIONS The following definitions and explanations provide a detailed description of specific terms and phrases used in this publication. Items in the publication tables which carry the note ''see text'' also are explained. Report form section number references refer to the general version (17-A100). Many of the definitions and explanations are the same as those used in earlier censuses. Acres and quantity harvested. Crops were reported in whole acres, except for the following crops that were reported in tenths of acres: tobacco, nursery and greenhouse crops in the open, vegetables including potatoes and sweet potatoes, fruit and nut crops including land in orchards, and berries. Totals for crops reported in tenths of acres were rounded to whole acres at the aggregate level during the tabulation process. Nursery and greenhouse crops grown under glass or other protection were reported in square feet and are published in square feet. If two or more crops were harvested from the same land during the year (double cropping), the acres were counted for each crop. Therefore, the total acres of all crops harvested could exceed the acres of cropland harvested. No double cropping is allowed for hay or fruit and nut crops. When more than one cutting of hay was taken from the same acres, the acres were counted only once. If there were multiple cuttings of one type of hay production, e.g., two cuttings of alfalfa for dry hay, acreage was reported once but the quantity harvested includes all cuttings. Acreage cut and tons harvested for both dry hay and haylage, silage, or greenchop were reported for each crop. For interplanted crops or ''skip-row'' crops, acres were reported according to the portion of the field occupied, whether by a crop or whether it was idle land. If a crop was interplanted in an orchard or vineyard and harvested, then the entire orchard or vineyard acreage was reported under the appropriate fruit crop and the interplanted estimated crop acreage was reported under the appropriate crop. If a crop was planted but not harvested, the acres were not reported as harvested. These acres were reported in the Land Use section on the report form under the appropriate items - cropland on which all crops failed or were abandoned, cropland in summer fallow, cropland idle or used for cover crops or soil-improvement but not harvested and not pastured or grazed, or other pasture and grazing land that could have been used for crops without additional improvements. This does not include fruit and nut orchards, vineyards, berries, acres in production for cultivated Christmas trees, and acres in production for short rotation woody crops that were not harvested. Acreage in these commodities were included in cropland harvested regardless of whether the crop was harvested. Abandoned orchards were reported as cropland idle, not as harvested cropland, and the individual abandoned orchard crop acres were not reported. Crops that were grazed by livestock were reported as "Other pasture and grazing land that could have been used for crops without additional improvements." Crop residue left in fields after the 2017 harvest and later grazed by livestock were reported as cropland harvested and not as other pasture or grazing land that could have been used for crops. Quantity harvested was not obtained for crops such as fruits, nuts, berries, vegetables, melons, nursery crops, and greenhouse crops. Agri-tourism and recreational services. See Total income from farm-related sources. Agricultural products sold directly to individuals for human consumption. See Value of food sold directly to consumers. All haylage, grass silage, and greenchop (tons). See Haylage, grass silage, and greenchop, all. All non-principal producers. See Producer. All principal producers. See Producer. All producers. See Producer. All other production expenses. See Total farm production expenses. American Indian and Alaska Native farm producers, total. Data are reported in Chapter 1, tables 52 through 77 and Chapter 2, tables 45 and 49. In Chapter 2, table 49 data are published for a maximum of four producers reported in the Personal Characteristics section of the report form. The individual producers were included on the census mail list for most reservations. Those reservations that did not include all the individual producers on the census mail list were identified and the data for the entire reservation, including the data for the producers that would have met the definition of a farm, were collected on one report form. The count of reservations and the number of producers that were reported on these reservations are included in Appendix A, Table D. Amount from Conservation Reserve, Wetlands Reserve, Farmable Wetlands, and Conservation Reserve Enhancement Programs. See Land enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP), Farmable Wetlands Program (FWP), or Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP). Amount from State and local government agricultural program payments. See Total income from farm-related sources. Amount spent to repay CCC loans. See also Commodity Credit Corporation loans. Farming operations that receive a CCC loan can use cash to repay the loan, purchase certificates for use in the repayment, or deliver the pledged collateral as full payment at maturity. If a farmer uses cash instead of certificates to repay the loan, the farmer and the IRS receive an information return showing the market gain realized. The farmer can repay the loan to the CCC and then sell the grain, feed the grain, or store it. These provisions only apply until the maturity date of the loan. After the maturity date of the loan, the entire original loan principal and all accrued interest must be repaid or, as an alternative choice, the crop may be forfeited to CCC. Animal production and aquaculture (112). See Farms by North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). Any poultry sold. The number of farms with any poultry sold includes all farms with sales of poultry, poultry hatched, or eggs. Aquaculture. Aquaculture is defined as the farming of fish, crustaceans, mollusks, and other aquaculture products. The aquaculture production reported in the census requires some form of intervention in the rearing process and requires inputs such as seeding, stocking, feeding, protection from predators, etc. It also requires ownership of the stock being cultivated and harvesting that is conducted in a controlled environment by the operation. The value of sales includes all sizes and eggs by species and includes aquaculture distributed for restoration, conservation, or recreational purposes, such as State and Federal hatcheries. Distributed fish with unknown values were assigned a value based on sales of farm-raised fish. Aquaculture and other animal production (1125, 1129). See Farms by North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). Aronia berries. This is a new item for 2017. In 2012 and previous censuses, data were included in Other berries. Aware of right to appeal an adverse program decision to USDA's National Appeals Division. This is a new item in 2017. The National Appeals Division (NAD) of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) provides an independent forum within USDA for program participants to seek administrative appeals of adverse agency decisions. Bantams. See Layers. Beans, Lima. In 2012 data were published as Beans, Green lima. This is a wording change only; data are comparable. Bees. See Colonies of honey bees and Honey collected. Berries. Aronia berries and Elderberries are new items for 2017. In 2012 and previous censuses, data were included in Other berries. A new summarization of Blueberries, all for 2017, which combines Blueberries, tame and Blueberries, wild data was added. Raspberries, other was added as an additional breakout for the Raspberries, all summarization in 2017. Berry acreage for 2017 was collected as bearing age and nonbearing age, similar to all other fruit crops; however, in 2012, data were collected as harvested and not harvested acres. Biodiesel production systems. See Renewable energy producing systems. Blueberries, all. This is a new summarization for 2017. It combines Blueberries, tame and Blueberries, wild data. Breeding livestock. See Total farm production expenses. By economic class. See Economic class of farms. Cattle on feed. Cattle on feed are steers and heifers being fed a ration of grain, silage, hay and/or protein supplement for slaughter market that are expected to produce a carcass that will grade select or better. It excludes cattle being "backgrounded only" for later sale as feeders or later placement in another feedlot. Cattle on feed sold. Data are for cattle on feed sold that weighed 500 pounds or more that were shipped directly from the feedlot to the slaughter market. This category excludes cattle that were pastured only, owned cattle that were shipped from feedlots operated by others, background feeder cattle, and veal calves. Cattle weighing 500 pounds or more. In 2012 this item was referred to as Cattle, including calves weighing 500 pounds or more. This is a wording change only; data are comparable. CCC loans. See Commodity Credit Corporation loans. Chemicals applied. For each type of chemical used, the acres treated were reported only once even if the acres were treated more than once. If multi- purpose chemicals were used, the acres treated for each purpose were reported. See Total farm production expenses; Chemicals. Cherimoyas. This is a new item for 2017. In 2012 cherimoyas were reported in other noncitrus fruit. Cherries. Cherries were reported as either sweet cherries or tart cherries. Combined crops or non-specified cherry acres were not options for the respondent. Total acres, bearing age acres, and nonbearing age acres were reported for each crop. Chickpeas. This is a new item for 2017. In 2012 chickpeas were reported as dry edible beans. See Dry edible beans, excluding chickpeas and limas. Christmas trees, cultivated. Data are for acres of Christmas trees - cut or to be cut - in production, acres irrigated, and number of trees cut. Sales data are included in the Cut Christmas trees and short rotation woody crops category. In 2012 this item was referred to as Cut Christmas trees. This is a wording change only; data are comparable. Christmas trees, live. Data were reported as nursery stock and include Christmas trees sold live, generally balled and burlapped, from the operation. Coffee. This is a new item for 2017 in all States except for Hawaii. In 2012 and previous censuses except for Hawaii, data were included in other noncitrus fruit. Data include trees grown in the open as well as under shade or in greenhouses. Data for coffee relate to the July 2016 through June 2017 harvest season. Colonies of honey bees. Published colonies inventory is the total number of colonies owned on December 31, 2017. Colonies of bees were collected in their own section to clarify to respondents that only "owned" colonies were to be reported versus any colonies on the operation. In 2017 bee operations with multiple locations reported inventory on the location where the bees were present and the inventory was tabulated in those counties. Inventories in 2012 were tabulated in the county where the operation had the largest value of all agricultural products raised or produced. Data may not be comparable. Package bees were not included as separate colonies. Commodities raised and delivered under production contracts. A production contract is an agreement between a producer or grower and a contractor (integrator) setting terms, conditions, and fees to be paid by the contractor to the operation for the production of crops, livestock, or poultry. The grower receives a payment or fee from the contractor, generally after delivery, which is less than the full market price of the commodity. A production contract involves the shifting of some risk and control from the grower to the contractor. Marketing contracts, futures contracts, forward contracts, or other contracts based strictly on price are not considered production contracts. Commodities sold to a co-op where some of the input items were purchased from the same co-op at a discount price were also excluded. Many operations produce commodities only under production contracts or only independently. Some operations may produce a commodity under production contract and also produce more of the same commodity that they sell independently. The production contract data are totals for the portion of agriculture production raised and delivered under production contract. Crops and livestock inventory, production, and value of sales are the total of all production, both independent and raised under production contract. Custom fed cattle shipped directly for slaughter under a production contract. Cattle under production contract which were not shipped directly to slaughter were reported in either Replacement dairy heifers under production contract or in the Other cattle, sheep, livestock, or poultry under production contract category. Grains, oilseeds, vegetables, melons, potatoes, and other crops under production contract. This category is the number of farms that produced and delivered any crop grown under a production contract. This item was reported as three different categories (grains and oilseeds, vegetables/melons/potatoes, and all other crops). Layers under production contract. The production contract is based on eggs, but the layers are owned by the contractor and are also under contract. The layers are produced at the pullet farm, which may have a separate production contract. Other cattle, sheep, livestock, or poultry under production contract. The data for commodities raised and delivered under a production contract include cattle which were not shipped directly to slaughter (backgrounding), sheep, livestock, and poultry not listed separately. Commodity Credit Corporation loans. This category includes nonrecourse marketing loans for wheat, corn, sorghum, barley, oats, cotton, rice, soybeans, Austrian winter peas, honey, dry edible peas, lentils, chickpeas, peanuts, sunflower seed, flaxseed, canola and other rapeseed, safflower, mustard seed, crambe, sesame seed, wool and mohair. Corn, Traditional or Indian. This is a new item for 2017. Traditional corn is an open-pollinated (non-hybrid), non-GMO cultivar of Zea mays that was indigenously developed and consists of many heritage varieties of sizes, color, and drought tolerance. Traditional corn grown on southwest reservations has been passed from generation to generation through seed saving by American Indian and Hispanic communities. Traditional corn is culturally significant. Cover crop seed purchased. See Total farm production expenses. Crop and livestock insurance payments received. See Total income from farm- related sources. Crop units of measure. The report form allowed the producer to report the quantity of field crops harvested in a unit of measure commonly used in the region. When the producer reported in units different than the unit of measure published, the quantity harvested was converted to the published unit of measure. Crop year or season covered. Acres and quantity harvested are for the calendar year 2017 except for coffee. Data for coffee relate to July 2016 through June 2017. Cropland, harvested. See Harvested cropland. Cropland idle or used for cover crops or soil improvement but not harvested and not pastured or grazed. Cropland idle includes any other acreage which could have been used for crops without any additional improvement and which was not reported as cropland harvested, cropland on which all crops failed, cropland in summer fallow, or other pasture or grazing land that could have been used for crops without additional improvements. This category includes: 1. Land used for cover crops or soil improvement but not harvested or grazed. 2. Land in Federal or State conservation programs that was not hayed or grazed in 2017. 3. Land occupied with growing crops for harvest in 2018 or later years but not harvested or summer fallowed in 2017 (except fruit or nuts in an orchard, grove, or vineyard or berries being maintained for production). Examples are acreage planted in winter wheat, strawberries, etc., for harvest in 2018 and no crop was harvested from these acres in 2017. 4. Land in "skipped" rows between rows of crops or field strips. Cropland in summer fallow. This includes cropland cultivated or treated with herbicides to control weeds and conserve moisture and not seeded or harvested in 2017. It includes cropland summer fallowed in 2017 and planted to a crop (i.e., winter wheat, etc.) for harvest in 2018. In 2012 this item was referred to as Cultivated summer fallow. This is a wording change only; data are comparable. Cropland, irrigated. See Irrigated land. Cropland on which intensive tillage practices were used. See Land use practices. Cropland on which reduced tillage, excluding no-till, practices were used. See Land use practices. Cropland, other. See Other cropland. Cropland, total. See Total cropland. Cropland used only for pasture or grazing. See other pasture and grazing land that could have been used for crops without additional improvements. Crustaceans. These are invertebrate animals with jointed legs and a hard shelled segmented body. Examples include crawfish, lobster, prawns, shrimp, and softshell crabs. Cultivated Christmas trees. See Christmas trees, cultivated. Custom fed cattle shipped directly for slaughter. See Commodities raised and delivered under production contract. Customwork and custom hauling. See Total farm production expenses. Customwork and other agricultural services. See Total income from farm- related sources. Cuttings, seedlings, liners, and plugs. See Nursery, greenhouse, floriculture, and sod. Data are based on sample of farms. For censuses from 1987 through 2002, selected data items were collected from only a sample of farms. These data were subject to sampling error. Depreciation expenses claimed. The calculation of total farm production expenses does not include depreciation because it is a capital expense. Depreciation allows the expensing of capital purchases over multiple years. It is not included in the calculation of Net cash farm income. Don't know. This is a new option in 2017 under the farms with internet access question. Those producers who were unable to determine how they receive their internet were able to check "Don't know." Dry edible beans, excluding chickpeas and limas. Dry edible beans do not include chickpeas, dry edible peas, dry lima beans, or dry southern (black eyed/cowpeas). In 2012, chickpeas (garbanzo beans) were included in dry edible beans. Data are not directly comparable to 2012. Ducks, geese, and other miscellaneous poultry. See Miscellaneous poultry. Economic class of farms. Economic class data are the classification of farms by the sum of market value of agricultural products sold and Federal farm program payments. See Total market value of agricultural products sold and government payments. See Farms with sales and government payments of less than $1,000. Elderberries. This is a new item for 2017. In 2012 and previous censuses, data were included in Other berries. Energy. See Renewable energy producing systems. Equine products. This category includes horse breeding fees, stud fees, semen, and other equine products and excludes boarding, training and riding facilities income. In 2012 equine products were included in Other livestock products. Ethanol production systems. See Renewable energy producing systems. Expenses. See Total farm production expenses. Farm or ranch producer. See Producer. Farms by combined government payments and market value of agricultural products sold. This category represents the value of products sold plus government payments. Total value of products sold combines total sales not under production contract and total sales under production contract. Government payments consist of government payments received from the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP), Farmable Wetlands Program (FWP), or Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP) plus government payments received from Federal programs other than the CRP, WRP, FWP, and CREP, and Commodity Credit Corporation loans. Farms by economic class. See Economic class of farms and Total market value of agricultural products sold and government payments. Farms by legal status. All farms were classified by legal status in the 2017 census. This section collects information for federal tax purposes to determine an operation's legal status. The classifications used were: 1. Family or individual (sole proprietorship), excluding partnership and corporation. 2. Partnership, including family partnership - in selected tables, partnership was further subclassified into: a. Registered under State law. b. Not registered under State law. 3. Corporation, including family corporations - in selected tables, corporation was further subclassified into: a. Family held or other than family held. b. More than 10 stockholders. 4. Other - estate or trust, prison farm, grazing association, American Indian reservation, etc. Farms by North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). The NAICS classifies economic activities. It was jointly developed by Mexico, Canada, and the U.S. NAICS makes it possible to produce comparable industrial statistics for Mexico, Canada, and the U.S. For the 2017 census, all agricultural production establishments (farms, ranches, nurseries, greenhouses, etc.) were classified by type of activity or activities using the NAICS code. The 2017 census is the fifth census to use NAICS. Censuses prior to the 1997 census used the old Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system to classify farms. NAICS was developed to provide a consistent framework for the collection, analysis, and dissemination of industrial statistics used by government policy analysts, academia and researchers, the business community, and the public. It is the first industry classification system developed in accordance with a single principle of aggregation that production units using similar production processes should be grouped together. Though NAICS differs from other industry classification systems, statistics compiled on NAICS are comparable with statistics compiled according to the latest revision of the United Nations' International Standard Industrial Classification, Revision Four, (ISIC, Revision 4) for some 60 high level groupings. Following are explanations of the major classifications used in 2017. Oilseed and grain farming (1111). Comprises establishments primarily engaged in (1) growing oilseed and/or grain crops and/or (2) producing oilseed and grain seeds. These crops have an annual life cycle and are typically grown in open fields. This category includes corn silage and grain silage. Vegetable and melon farming (11121). Comprises establishments primarily engaged in one or more of the following: (1) growing vegetables and/or melon crops, (2) producing vegetable and melon seeds, and (3) growing vegetable and/or melon bedding plants. Fruit and tree nut farming (1113). Comprises establishments primarily engaged in growing fruit and/or tree nut crops. These crops are generally not grown from seeds and have a perennial life cycle. Greenhouse, nursery, and floriculture production (1114). Comprises establishments primarily engaged in growing crops of any kind under cover and/or growing nursery stock and flowers. ''Under cover'' is generally defined as greenhouses, cold frames, cloth houses, and lath houses. Crops grown are removed at various stages of maturity and have annual and perennial life cycles. The category includes short rotation woody crops and Christmas trees that have a growing and harvesting cycle of 10 years or less. Other crop farming (1119). Comprises establishments primarily engaged in (1) growing crops such as tobacco, cotton, sugarcane, hay, sugarbeets, peanuts, agave, herbs and spices, and hay and grass seeds, or (2) growing a combination of the valid crops with no one crop or family of crops accounting for one-half of the establishment's agricultural production (value of crops for market). Crops not included in this category are oilseeds, grains, vegetables and melons, fruits, tree nuts, greenhouse, nursery and floriculture products. All other crop farming (11199). Comprises establishments primarily engaged in (1) growing crops (except oilseeds and/or grains; vegetables and/or melons; fruits and/or tree nuts; greenhouse, nursery, and/or floriculture products; tobacco; cotton; sugarcane; or hay) or (2) growing a combination of crops (except a combination of oilseed(s) and grain(s)); and a combination of fruit(s) and tree nut(s) with no one crop or family of crops accounting for one-half of the establishment's agricultural production. Animal production and aquaculture (112). Industries in the Animal Production and Aquaculture subsector raise or fatten animals for the sale of animals or animal products and/or raise aquatic plants and animals in controlled or selected aquatic environments for the sale of aquatic plants, animals, or their products. The subsector includes establishments, such as ranches, farms, and feedlots primarily engaged in keeping, grazing, breeding, or feeding animals. These animals are kept for the products they produce or for eventual sale. The animals are generally raised in various environments, from total confinement or captivity to feeding on an open range pasture. The industries in this subsector are grouped by important factors, such as suitable grazing or pasture land, specialized buildings, type of equipment, and the amount and types of labor required. Establishments are classified to the Animal Production and Aquaculture subsector when animal production (i.e., value of animals for market) accounts for one-half or more of the establishment's total agricultural production. Establishments with one-half or more animal production with no one animal product or family of animal products of an industry accounting for one half of the establishment's agricultural production are treated as combination animal farming classified to Industry 11299, All Other Animal Production. Beef cattle ranching and farming (112111). Comprises establishments primarily engaged in raising cattle (including cattle for dairy herd replacements). Pastureland-only farms, those with only 100 or more acres of pastureland, were classified as "All other animal production farming (11299)." Cattle feedlots (112112). Comprises establishments primarily engaged in feeding cattle for fattening. Dairy cattle and milk production (112120). This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in milking dairy cattle. Poultry and egg production (1123). This industry group comprises establishments primarily engaged in breeding, hatching, and raising poultry for meat or egg production. Sheep and goat farming (1124). This industry group comprises establishments primarily engaged in raising sheep, lambs, and goats, or feeding lambs for fattening. Aquaculture (1125). Comprises establishments primarily engaged in the farm raising of finfish, shellfish, or any other kind of animal aquaculture. These establishments use some form of intervention in the rearing process to enhance production, such as holding in captivity, regular stocking, feeding, and protecting from predators. Other animal production (1129). Comprises establishments primarily engaged in raising animals and insects (except cattle, hogs and pigs, poultry, sheep and goats, and aquaculture) for sale or product production. These establishments are primarily engaged in one of the following: bees, horses and other equine, rabbits and other fur-bearing animals, etc. and producing products such as honey and other bee products. Establishments primarily engaged in raising a combination of animals with no one animal or family of animals accounting for one-half of the establishment's agricultural production are included in this industry group. Farms with only 100 acres or more of pastureland were classified as "All other animal production farming (11299)." Farms by number of households sharing in net income of operation. Households that received funds because they were only landlords, custom equipment producers, or provided other production services were not included. Published data can exceed the number of producers listed under Producers, all. Farms by size. All farms were classified into size groups according to the total land area in the farm. The land area of a farm is an operating unit concept and includes land owned and operated as well as land rented from others. Land rented to or assigned to a tenant was considered part of the tenant's farm and not part of the owner's. Farms by tenure of producer. All farms were classified by tenure of producers. The classifications used were: • Full owners operated only land they owned. • Part owners operated land they owned and also land they rented from others. • Tenants operated only land they rented from others or worked on shares for others. Farms with hired managers are classified according to the land ownership characteristics reported. For example, a corporation owns all the land used on the farm and hires a manager to run the farm. The hired manager is considered the farm producer, and the farm is classified with a tenure type of "full owner" even though the hired manager owns none of the land he/she operates. Farms by type of organization. The data categorizes an operation's ownership. Operation more than 50 percent owned by one producer's household and/or extended family. The data are used to measure the principal producers' ownership interest in the organization. In 2012 this item was labeled Operations with 50 percent or more ownership interest held by operator and/or persons related by blood, marriage, or adoption. This is a wording change only; data are comparable. Limited Liability Company. This type of farm structure combines the pass- through taxation of a partnership or sole proprietorship with the limited liability of a corporation. Farms by value of sales. See Market value of agricultural products sold. Farms or farms reporting. The terms ''farms'' and ''farms reporting'' in the presentation of data are equivalent. Both represent the number of farms reporting the item. For example, if there are 3,710 farms in a State and 842 of them had 28,594 cattle and calves, the data for those farms reporting cattle and calves would appear as: Cattle and calves farms . . . . . 842 number . . . 28,594 Farms with sales and government payments of less than $1,000. This category includes farms with combined sales and government payments of less than $1,000 but having the potential for sales of $1,000 or more. It provides information on all items for farms that normally would be expected to sell agricultural products of $1,000. Farms with sales of less than $1,000. This category includes farms with sales of less than $1,000 but having the potential for sales of $1,000 or more. Some of these farms had no sales in the census year. It provides information on all report form items for farms that normally would be expected to sell agricultural products of $1,000 or more. Fertilizer. See Total farm production expenses; Fertilizer, lime, and soil conditioners. Field and grass seed crops, all. Data are for all the field and grass seed crops not published as field crops and include field seed crops which did not have a specific code on the 2017 report form. Foliage plants, indoor (including hanging baskets). For 2017 "(including hanging baskets)" was added to the description for clarity. Data are comparable. Food marketing practices. This is a new section for 2017. This section consists of sales of edible agricultural products that are both produced and sold by the operation directly to consumers (farmers markets, on farm stores or farm stand, roadside stands or stores, u-pick, CSA, online marketplaces, etc.) or retail markets, institutions, or food hubs for local or regionally branding. Retail and institutional establishments include supermarkets, supercenters, restaurants, caterers, independently owned grocery stores, food cooperatives, K-12 schools, colleges or universities, hospitals, workplace cafeterias, prisons, foodbanks, etc. Forage - land used for all hay and all haylage, grass silage, and greenchop. Data shown represent the area harvested with each acre counted only once if dry hay, haylage, grass silage, or greenchop were cut from the same acreage or if there were multiple cuttings of dry hay, haylage, grass silage, or greenchop. Data exclude corn silage and sorghum silage. Quantity produced is the sum of the quantity harvested of all hay including alfalfa, other dry hay, and all haylage, grass silage and greenchop after converting the all haylage, grass silage, and greenchop quantity harvested to a dry equivalent basis (13 percent moisture). The green tons of all haylage, grass silage, and greenchop harvested were multiplied by a factor of 0.4943 to convert to a dry equivalent. This conversion factor is based on the assumption that one ton of dry hay is 0.87 ton of dry matter, one ton of haylage or grass silage is 0.45 ton dry matter, and one ton of greenchop is 0.25 ton dry matter. The all haylage, grass silage, and greenchop quantity harvested is assumed to be comprised of 90 percent haylage and grass silage and 10 percent greenchop. Therefore, the conversion factor used to adjust all haylage, grass silage, and greenchop quantity harvested to a dry equivalent basis = [(0.45*0.9)+(0.25*0.1)]/0.87 = 0.4943. Fruits and tree nuts. Total acres, bearing age acres, and nonbearing age acres were collected. Geothermal/geoexchange systems. See Renewable energy producing systems. Ginger root. In 2017 data for ginger root are included in the vegetable section. In 2012 and previous censuses, data were included in the field crop section. Government payments. This category consists of payments from Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP), Farmable Wetlands Program (FWP), and Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP); loan deficiency payments; disaster payments; other conservation programs; and all other Federal farm programs under which payments were made directly to farm producers, including those specified in the 2014 Agricultural Act (Farm Bill), including Agriculture Risk Coverage (ARC) and Price Loss Coverage (PLC). Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) proceeds, amount from State and local government agricultural program payments, and Federal crop insurance payments were not tabulated in this category. Grain and bean combines. Data were collected for self-propelled combines only. Grains, oilseeds, dry beans, and dry peas sales. Data are for the total market value of cash grains sold, including corn for grain, seed, or silage; wheat for grain; soybeans for beans; sorghum for grain, seed, or silage; barley for grain; rice; oats for grain; and other grains. Also included is the total market value of cash oilseeds sold, including sunflower seed (oil and non-oil), flaxseed, canola, rapeseed, safflower seed, mustard seed, dry beans, and dry peas. Grains, oilseeds, vegetables, melons, potatoes, and other crops. See Commodities raised and delivered under production contracts. Greenhouse fruits and berries. Data include strawberries, raspberries, etc. grown in greenhouses and high tunnels where the crops were always covered. See Nursery, greenhouse, floriculture, and sod. Gross cash rent or share payments. See Total income from farm-related sources. Had a barn that was built prior to 1960. This is a new question asked of producers in 2017. The last time this question was asked was on the 2007 Census of Agriculture. Harvested cropland. This category includes land from which crops were harvested and hay was cut, land used to grow short rotation woody crops, Christmas trees, and land in orchards, groves, vineyards, berries, nurseries, and greenhouses. Land from which two or more crops were harvested was counted only once. Land in tapped maple trees was included in woodland not pastured. The 2017 census definition for harvested cropland is the same as the 2012 definition. Hay - all hay including alfalfa, and other dry. Data shown represent the acreage and quantity harvested of all types of dry hay. The quantity harvested was reported in dry tons (dry weight at the time the hay was removed from the field for storage or feeding). If two or more cuttings of dry hay were made from the same field, the acreage was reported only once as acres harvested of the appropriate dry hay category but the production from all dry hay cuttings was combined in the corresponding quantity harvested. Straw acreage and production are excluded. If dry hay was cut from the same land that haylage, grass silage, or greenchop was cut, the acreage and production for the dry hay was reported in the appropriate category of dry hay and the acreage and production for haylage, grass silage, or greenchop was reported in the appropriate haylage, grass silage, or greenchop category. For example, if 20 acres of alfalfa were cut for hay and then the same land was used to produce alfalfa haylage, 20 acres and the quantity harvested of hay were reported as Alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures for dry hay and 20 acres and the quantity harvested of alfalfa haylage were reported as Haylage or greenchop from alfalfa or alfalfa mixtures. Hay, other dry hay. Data shown represent acreage and dry tons of hay harvested from clover, fescue, lespedeza, timothy, Bermuda grass, Sudangrass, sorghum hay, and other types of legumes (excluding alfalfa) and tame grasses. For 2017, data include small grains harvested for hay including barley, oats, rye, and wheat as well as wild hay. In 2012 this item was reported in three categories - Small grain dry hay, Other tame dry hay, and Wild hay. Haylage, grass silage, and greenchop, all. Data shown represent the acreage and quantity harvested of all types (alfalfa and all other haylage, grass silage, and greenchop). The quantity harvested was reported in green tons. If two or more cuttings of haylage, grass silage, or greenchop were made from the same field, the acreage was reported as acres harvested in the appropriate haylage category only once, and the tonnage from all cuttings was combined in the corresponding quantity harvested. Straw acreage and production is excluded. Hired farm labor. Data are for total hired farm workers, including paid family members, by number of days worked. Data exclude contract laborers. Hired managers. A hired manager is someone who receives a wage to manage the farm operation. For 2017 up to four hired managers were reported for each farm operation. In 2012 only one hired manager per farm was published. Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish origin. Producers of Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish origin are found in all of the racial groups listed in the census and were tabulated according to the race reported, as well as on tables pertaining only to this group. Hogs and pigs by type of operation. Hog and pig farms were classified by primary type of operation. Operation types were farrow to wean, farrow to feeder, farrow to finish, nursery, finish only, and other. Each description was accepted and the reported inventory and sales data were assigned to each reported type. Hogs and pigs by type of producer. Hog and pig farms were classified by one type of producer. Producer types were independent grower, contractor or integrator, and contract grower (contractee). Each description was accepted and the reported inventory and sales data were assigned to each reported type. Honey collected. Data are for pounds of honey collected but not necessarily sold. See Colonies of honey bees. Horses and ponies sales. Data are for horses sold or moved off the farming operation regardless of ownership. In 2012 data only included value of owned horses sold. Income. Net cash farm income is published for the operation and producer. The difference between net cash income and net cash returns is that net cash returns does not include government payments and other farm-related income as income. See Net cash farm income of the operations and Net cash farm income of the producers. Income from farm-related sources. See Total income from farm-related sources. Institutional, research, experimental, and American Indian Reservation farms. Data for these farms are combined into a single category. Research farms include farms operated by private companies as well as those operated by universities, colleges, and government organizations for the purpose of expanding agricultural knowledge. Internet access. This item is the number of farms that reported using personal computers, laptops, or mobile devices (e.g., cell phones or tablets) to access the internet. This can be done using services such as dial-up, DSL, cable modem, fiber-optic, mobile internet service for a cell phone or other device (tablet), satellite, or other methods. In 2017 respondents were also able to report connecting with an unknown service type, labeled as "Don't know" in the publication tables. Involvement in decisionmaking. This is a new item in 2017. Questions were asked about each producer's involvement in farm-related decisions, including day-to-day decisions, land use and/or crop decisions, livestock decisions, record keeping and/or financial management, and estate planning or succession planning. Irrigated land. This category includes all land watered by any artificial or controlled means, such as sprinklers, flooding, furrows or ditches, sub- irrigation, and spreader dikes. Included are supplemental, partial, and preplant irrigation. Each acre was counted only once regardless of the number of times it was irrigated or harvested. If an operation reported less than one acre irrigated, the irrigated land for the operation was rounded to one acre. Livestock lagoon wastewater distributed by sprinkler or flood systems was also included. Land area, approximate. The approximate land area represents the total land area as determined by records and calculations as of January 1, 2017. The proportion of land area in farms may exceed 100 percent because some operations have land in two or more counties, but all acres are tabulated in the principal county of operation. The approximate land area data were supplied by the U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of the Census. See Land in two or more counties. Land enrolled in crop insurance programs. The data are for all land enrolled in any Federal, private, or other crop insurance program. It includes acreage of pasture/rangeland enrolled in crop insurance programs in areas where it is provided. Land enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP), Farmable Wetlands Program (FWP), or Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP). CRP is a program established by the USDA in 1985 that takes land prone to erosion out of production for 10 to 15 years and devotes it to conservation uses. In return, farmers receive an annual rental payment for carrying out approved conservation practices on the conservation acreage. The WRP, FWP, and CREP programs are included under the Conservation Reserve Program. Operations with land enrolled in the CRP, WRP, FWP, or CREP were counted as farms, given they received $1,000 or more in government payments, even if they had no sales and otherwise lacked the potential to have $1,000 or more in sales. Land in berries. Data are for total land in berries. Respondents in 2017 reported bearing age acres and nonbearing acres by individual berry crops. In 2012 and previous censuses, respondents reported acres harvested and acres not harvested of individual berry crops. Land in farms. The acreage designated as ''land in farms'' consists primarily of agricultural land used for crops, pasture, or grazing. It also includes woodland and wasteland not actually under cultivation or used for pasture or grazing, provided it was part of the farm producer's total operation. Large acreages of woodland or wasteland held for nonagricultural purposes were deleted from individual reports during the edit process. Land in farms includes CRP, WRP, FWP, and CREP acres. Land in farms is an operating unit concept and includes land owned and operated as well as land rented from others. Land used rent free was reported as land rented from others. All grazing land, except land used under government permits on a per-head basis, was included as ''land in farms'' provided it was part of a farm or ranch. Land under the exclusive use of a grazing association was reported by the grazing association and included as land in farms. All land in American Indian reservations used for growing crops, grazing livestock, or with the potential of grazing livestock was included as land in farms. Land in reservations not reported by reservation, individual American Indians, or non-Native Americans was reported in the name of the cooperative group that used the land. In a few instances, an entire American Indian reservation was reported as one farm. Land in orchards. Starting in 2017, pineapples were moved from the field crops section to the fruit and nut section. As a result, land in orchards includes pineapples in 2017 and land in orchards is not directly comparable to 2012. This category includes land in bearing age and nonbearing age fruit trees, citrus or other groves, vineyards, and nut trees of all ages, including land on which all fruit crops failed. Respondents also reported bearing age acres and nonbearing age acres by individual fruit and nut crops. Land in two or more counties. With few exceptions, the land in each farm was tabulated as being in the producer's principal county. The principal county was defined as the one where the largest value of agricultural products was raised or produced. It was usually the county containing all or the largest proportion of the land in the farm or viewed by the respondent as his/her principal county. Reports received showing land in more than one county were separated into two or more reports if the data would substantially distort county totals. Land irrigated at least once in the past five years. Data represent the total number of acres irrigated on the operation over the past five years. Land from different years can be added together as long as the land was irrigated at least once and the plots of land were in different locations. While land can be irrigated multiple times over the course of five years, it can only be counted once. In some situations, operations can report more acres irrigated in the past than they currently have, e.g., operations that rented irrigated acres to or from others in the past had more irrigated land than their current operation. Land use practices. Includes all agricultural land used for the production of agricultural commodities. Drained by tile. Tile drainage is a practice that removes excess water from the soils subsurface. Artificially drained by ditches. A field ditch installed for surface drainage for collecting excess surface or subsurface water in a field. Conservation easement. A conservation easement is a legal agreement voluntarily entered into by a property owner and a qualified conservation organization such as a land trust or government agency. This category excludes land in CRP (Conservation Reserve Program) acres. No-till practices used. Using no-till or minimum till is a practice used for weed control and helps reduce weed seed germination by not disturbing the soil. Reduced tillage. Conserves the soil by reducing erosion and decreasing water pollution. In 2012 this category was labeled conservation tillage. This is a wording change only; data are comparable. Intensive tillage. Refers to tillage operations that use standard practices for a specific location and crop to bury crop residues. In 2012, this category was labeled conventional tillage. Cover crop. A crop planted primarily to manage soil fertility, soil quality, water, weeds, pests, diseases, or wildlife. This item does not include CRP acres. Land used for vegetables. Data are for the total land used for vegetable and melon crops. The acres were reported only once, even though two or more harvests of a vegetable or more than one vegetable were harvested from the same acres. Respondents also reported harvested acres, acres harvested for fresh market, and acres harvested for processing by individual vegetable crops. Landlord's share of the total sales. Data represent the share of the operation's total sales that went to landlord(s). Layers. This category includes table-egg type layers, hatching layers for meat-types, hatching layers for table egg types, and reported bantams. Legal status for tax purposes. See Farms by legal status. Less than $1,000. See Farms with sales and government payments of less than $1,000. Livestock and poultry purchased or leased. See Total farm production expenses; Livestock and poultry purchased or leased. Maple syrup. Data are for the number of taps set, syrup produced, and value of sales. Market value of agricultural products sold. This category represents the gross market value before taxes and production expenses of all agricultural products sold or removed from the place in 2017 regardless of who received the payment. It is equivalent to total sales and it includes sales by the producers as well as the value of any shares received by partners, landlords, contractors, or others associated with the operation. It includes value of organic sales, direct sales and the value of commodities placed in the Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) loan program. Market value of agricultural products sold does not include payments received for participation in other Federal farm programs. It does not include income from farm-related sources such as customwork and other agricultural services, or income from nonfarm sources. The value of crops sold in 2017 does not necessarily represent the sales from crops harvested in 2017. Data may include sales from crops produced in earlier years and may exclude some crops produced in 2017 but held in storage and not sold. For commodities such as sugarbeets and wool sold through a co- op that made payments in several installments, respondents were requested to report the total value received in 2017. The value of agricultural products sold was requested of all producers. If the producers failed to report this information, estimates were made based on the amount of crops harvested, livestock or poultry inventory, or number sold. Caution should be used when comparing sales in the 2017 census with sales reported in earlier censuses. Sales figures are expressed in current dollars and have not been adjusted for inflation or deflation. See Farms with sales and government payments of less than $1,000. Market value of agricultural products sold and government payments. See Total market value of agricultural products sold and government payments. Medical supplies, veterinary, and custom services for livestock. See Total farm production expenses. Methane digesters. See Renewable energy producing systems. Migrant farm labor on farms reporting only contract labor. Data are for those operations that did not have hired farm workers but reported that they did have migrant contract workers on their operation in 2017. Migrant farm labor on farms with hired labor. Producers were asked whether any hired or contract workers were migrant workers. A migrant farm worker is a farm worker whose employment required travel that prevented the worker from returning to his/her permanent place of residence the same day. Migrant workers, total. Data are for total migrant farm workers whose employment requires travel that prevents the worker from returning to his or her permanent place of residence the same day. Military service. This item is new in 2017. A producer with military service is a person who currently or previously served on active duty in the U.S. Armed Forces. Mink, live. The data are for inventory and sales of live mink. Number of farms producing mink pelts are included in Other livestock products. Miscellaneous poultry. Data are for poultry other than chickens or turkeys. Data are published in Chapter 2, table 20. Misreported or miscoded crops. In a few cases, data may have been reported on the wrong line, in the wrong section, or the wrong crop code may have been assigned to a write-in crop code. A few of these errors may not have been identified and corrected during processing which resulted in rare cases of inaccurately tabulated data. Reports with significant acres of unusual crops for the area were examined to minimize the possibility that they were in error. Mobile internet service for a cell phone or other device. This includes counts of farm operations that reported accessing the internet from a mobile device, such as cell phone or tablet. In 2012 this item was labeled Mobile broadband plan for a computer or a cell phone. This is a wording change only; data are comparable. Mollusks. These are invertebrate animals with a soft body covering and shells of 1-18 parts or sections. Examples include abalones, clams, mussels, oysters, and snails. See Aquaculture. More than one race reported. This category represents producers who reported more than one race on the census form. Mushroom spawn. Respondents reported only sales; growing area was not summarized. Mushrooms. All mushroom crops were considered grown under glass or other protection and no mushroom data were published as area in the open. Those reporting mushrooms grown in the open area were converted to an equivalent area of square feet under protection proportional to their sales. NAICS. See Farms by North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). Net cash farm income of the operations. This concept is derived by subtracting total farm expenses from total sales, government payments, and other farm-related income. Depreciation is not used in the calculation of net cash farm income. Net cash farm income of the operation includes the value of commodities produced under production contract by the contract growers. For publication purposes, farms are divided into two categories: 1. Farms with net gains (includes those operations that broke even). 2. Farms with net losses. Net cash farm income of producers. This value is the producers' total revenue (fees for producing under a production contract, total sales not under a production contract, government payments, and farm-related income) minus total expenses paid by the producers. Net cash farm income of the producer includes the payments received for producing under a production contract and does not include value of commodities produced under production contract by the contract growers. Depreciation is not used in the calculation of net cash farm income. For publication purposes, farms are divided into two categories: 1. Farms with net gains (includes those producers that broke even). 2. Farms with net losses. New and beginning producers. This is a new category for 2017. It includes producers operating on any operation for 10 years or less. They may be on farms with producers who are not beginning producers. Noncitrus fruit, all. This is a summation of all acres reported in the commodities defined as noncitrus such as apples, grapes, and plums. Data for 2017 include pineapples. In 2012 and previous censuses, pineapples were included in field crops. Data are not directly comparable. Number of female producers. This item is the total count of female producers involved in decisions for the operation reported by the respondent. Detailed demographic data are only available for up to four producers per farm operation. Number of male producers. This item is the total count of male producers involved in decisions for the operation reported by the respondent. Detailed demographic data are only available for up to four producers per farm operation. Number of persons living in producers' households. This is the count of people living in the households of the producers on the farm. If producers on the farm are living in the same household, the count is not duplicated for each producer. Number of producers. This item is the total count of producers involved in decisions for the operation reported by the respondent. Detailed demographic data are only available for up to four producers per farm operation. Nursery, greenhouse, floriculture, and sod. Data are for total square feet under protection and acres in the open. Individual crop data were collected for area under glass or other protection, area in the open, and sales of aquatic plants, floriculture and bedding crops, nursery crops, sod, propagative materials, food crops grown under protection, and mushroom crops. Total sales data are the summation of all crops. Nursery stock crops. Data include ornamentals, shrubs, shade trees, flowering trees, evergreens, live Christmas trees, fruit and nut trees and plants, vines, palms, ornamental grasses, and bare root herbaceous perennials. Nuts, all. Data include all nut trees. Occupation. See Producer characteristics. Operation more than 50 percent owned by one producer's household and/or extended family. See Farms by type of organization. Operations legal status for tax purposes. See Farms by legal status. Operators. The term "operators" has been replaced with the term "producers." Oranges, all.

The combination of Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander is equivalent to the Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander category on the other forms. The combination of the Chinese, Filipino, Japanese, Korean, and Other Asian categories is equivalent to the Asian category on the other forms. The Volume 1, Geographic Area Series, U.S. Summary publication only displays counts for the categories of Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander and Asian. Data for the 11 Hawaii race categories are published in chapter 2 of the Hawaii publication of the Volume 1 series. Raspberries, all. In 2017 data for raspberries were reported as black raspberries, red raspberries, and other raspberries (includes all other raspberries not listed on the report form) for all States except Hawaii.
