United States Department of Agriculture Agricultural Prices 1997 Summary July 1998 National Agricultural Statistics Service Economics Research Service Pr 1-3 (98) Agricultural Prices 1997 Summary The 38th Annual Summary of Agricultural Prices contains prices farmers received for commodities sold as well as prices paid for production input goods and services. Prices are weighted and aggregated into price indexes. These indexes provide measures of relative price changes for agricultural outputs and inputs. The State, Regional, and U. S. average prices for agricultural commodities and farm production inputs are based on voluntary reports from agri-business firms, merchants, dealers, and farmers throughout the Nation. These data are collected at regular intervals using mailed inquiries, telephone, and personal enumeration. We greatly appreciate the cooperation and support of all the individuals and firms that have provided data. Estimates of prices received by farmers are published by state for crops (1996-97), vegetables (1995-97), and livestock and poultry (1996-97). Estimates for prices paid by farmers for feed, fuel, and fertilizer are published by region for 1996. Prices paid for all other surveyed items are published for 1996 at the U. S. level. U. S. price indexes for both prices received and paid including any index revisions are published for 1990-97. Preliminary crop prices for 1997 and fruit and vegetable prices for 1996 and 1997 are subject to revision. Prices received for livestock and poultry are final estimates. Prices received and prices paid revisions are first published in the monthly issues of "Agricultural Prices" and again in the Annual Summary. * * * * * * * July 1998 Table of Contents Prices Received Page A- Indexes: United States, 1990-97 (1910-14=100 and 1990-92=100) Annual Averages (1990-92=100) ........................................... 3 Relative Importance of Commodities in Indexes of Prices Received ........ 4 All Farm Products, Subgroups .......................................... 5-12 Marketing Year Definitions and Commodity Marketing Percentages ....... 13-29 Crops Monthly MYA Crops Monthly MYA Page A- Page A- Page A- Page A- Almonds .................. 42 Potatoes ................ 114 34 Apples ................... 119 40 Prunes (Dried) .......... 42 Apricots ................. 44 Rapeseed ................ 33 Artichokes ............... 59 Raspberries Asparagus ................ 138 53 Black ................. 44 Avocados ................. 41 Red ................... 44 Bananas .................. 42 Rice .................... 88 34 Barley Rye ..................... 34 All .................... 92 30 Safflower ............... 33 Feed ................... 94 30 Snap Beans .............. 57 Malting ................ 96 30 Sorghum ................. 72 34 Beans, Dry Edible ........ 86 30 Soybeans ................ 74 35 Bell Peppers ............. 58 Spearmint ............... 40 Blackberries ............. 44 Spinach ................. 59 Blueberries .............. 44 Strawberries ............ 150 56 Boysenberries ............ 44 Sugarbeets .............. 35 Broccoli ................. 138 53 Sugarcane ............... 35 Brussels Sprouts ......... 59 Sunflower Cabbage .................. 57 All ................... 77 36 Canola ................... 33 Oil ................... 78 36 Canteloups ............... 57 Non-Oil ............... 79 36 Carrots .................. 138 53 Sweetpotatoes ........... 36 Cauliflower .............. 140 53 Tangelos ................ 137 49 Celery ................... 140 53 Tangerines .............. 135 49 Cherries ................. 43 Taro .................... 42 Coffee ................... 42 Temples ................. 137 49 Corn, Field .............. 70 31 Tobacco ................. 109 37 Corn, Sweet .............. 142 54 Tomatoes ................ 152 56 Cranberries .............. 43 Walnuts ................. 42 Cucumbers ................ 58 Watermelons ............. 58 Cotton ................... 90 31 Wheat Cottonseed ............... 89 31 All ................... 100 39 Dates .................... 42 Durum ................. 106 39 Eggplant ................. 59 Hard Red .............. 108 36 Escarole/Endive .......... 59 Other Spring .......... 104 39 Figs ..................... 42 Soft Red .............. 108 36 Flaxseed ................. 76 33 White ................. 108 36 Garlic ................... 59 Winter ................ 102 39 Grapefruit ............... 126 47 K-Early ................ 51 Grapes ................... 118 42 Hay Livestock and Products All .................... 80 32 Alfalfa ................ 82 32 Cattle All Other .............. 84 32 All Beef .............. 158 60 Hazelnuts ................ 41 Cows .................. 154 60 Honeydew Melons .......... 144 54 Steers and Heifers .... 156 60 Hops ..................... 33 Calves ................ 160 61 Kiwifruit ................ 42 Cows, Milk ............ 162 61 Lemons ................... 133 49 Chickens Lettuce Broilers .............. 168 65 Head ................... 144 54 Excluding Broilers .... 65 Leaf ................... 59 Eggs Romaine ................ 59 All ................... 171 66 Lima Beans ............... 59 Market ................ 170 66 Limes .................... 137 49 Hogs Loganberries ............. 44 All ................... 163 62 Macadamia Nuts ........... 42 Barrows and Gilts ..... 164 62 Mustard Seed ............. 33 Sows .................. 165 62 Nectarines ............... 42 Honey ................... 69 Oats ..................... 98 33 Lambs ................... 166 63 Olives ................... 42 Milk, Sold to Plants Onions ................... 146 55 All -

Points of first sale by farmers range from bulk sales at the farm to packed and graded products delivered to a local market. For crops the price refers to all sales, regardless of the year harvested. The average price concept is that price which would result from dividing the total dollars received by all farmers, before any marketing charges are deducted, by the total quantity sold. Contract sales are reported in the month of settlement, not when the contract is made. Prices are on an "as sold" basis, with the following exceptions: milk is priced f.o.b. plant or receiving station; fruit and vegetable pricing is covered in detail on page A-2. Monthly Prices are based on all sales of the commodity during the entire month. Exceptions are hay, eggs, and turkeys which are based on the 5-day period centered on the 15th of the month. State commodity prices are estimated for months when at least 0.5 percent of the annual sales occur. Weights for computing monthly United States average prices are based on estimated marketings during the month by State. Marketing Year Average (MYA) Prices are weighted average prices for crops, livestock, and poultry items sold during the marketing year. Commodity marketing years are defined on pages A-13 and A-14. State marketing year average prices are computed by weighting monthly prices by the estimated percentage of monthly sales during the marketing year. State and U.S. monthly and marketing year average prices for crops are open-market prices excluding Government program payments or allowances for unredeemed loans and purchases by the Government. Government payments to farmers are included in farm income accounts as a separate cash receipt item. U.S. marketing year average prices for corn, sorghum, oats, barley, wheat, rice, soybeans, flaxseed, sunflower, and upland cotton are computed by weighting U.S. monthly prices by monthly marketings for the U.S. marketing year. Other crops, livestock, and poultry U.S. marketing year average prices are computed by weighting State marketing year average prices by the estimated quantity sold in each State. Preliminary Marketing Year Average Price estimates for 1997 are based on price data through December 1997 for all field crops except tobacco which is based on data through April 1998. Marketing years for fruit, vegetables, and nuts vary by State and commodity. Allowances are made for the portion of the crop expected to be marketed during the remainder of the marketing year for all commodities except cotton. Monthly and Marketing Year Average Crop Prices for 1996 are final except for fruit. Crop prices for 1997 are subject to revision. These revisions will be published first in the monthly issues of Agricultural Prices and then in the "Annual Summary". Livestock, livestock products and poultry prices are final estimates for 1996 and 1997. Prices for agricultural commodities may be revised during the Agency's five-year review of production estimates. Price revisions resulting from this review are usually small and generally are the result of reweighting State prices to the U.S. level. State monthly and MYA prices for noncitrus fruit sold for fresh market are the weighted average of prices received by producers at the points of first sale. Points of first sale include f.o.b. shipping point, farm, roadside, U-pick, farmer's market, grower auctions, and bulk sales to a packer. The exceptions to this are California, Washington, New York (apples only), and Oregon (excluding peaches), which use equivalent returns at the packinghouse-door. This is a f.o.b. packed shipping point price adjusted back to the packinghouse-door by subtracting all costs that accumulate between the packinghouse and the f.o.b. shipping point. Costs include cleaning, grading, packing, inspecting, and marketing. U.S. monthly prices are the weighted averages of the state prices. U.S. MYA prices are derived by dividing the sum of the states' values of production by their sum of production. Monthly prices include all fruit sold in a month regardless of the crop year in which it was harvested. State MYA prices for noncitrus fruit sold for processing are the equivalent returns producers receive for fruit delivered to the processing plant door. The exceptions are California olives and clingstone peaches, which are prices at the first delivery point, and cranberries, which is a weighted average of adjusted co-op pool proceeds and independent sales at the first delivery point. U.S. MYA prices for noncitrus processing fruits are derived by dividing the sum of states' values by their sum of production. There are no monthly price series of noncitrus processing fruits. State and U.S. MYA prices for noncitrus crops at the "all sales" level (fresh and processing) are derived by dividing total value by total production. State monthly citrus prices are based on weighted average f.o.b. packed prices received for fresh fruit, and weighted average prices received at the processing plant door for processing fruit. Equivalent returns for fresh and processed fruit are calculated at the packinghouse-door and on-tree levels by deducting picking, hauling, sorting, grading, packing, cooling, marketing, and other costs from the two base prices. State MYA prices and equivalent returns for citrus are calculated from the weighted average fresh and processed prices received each month in the crop's marketing season. The crop year 1996-97 as shown on all citrus tables in this publication refers to the crop which bloomed in 1996 and was marketed during the 1996-97 season. (See page A-18 for a description of the citrus marketing seasons.) Monthly and MYA citrus prices at the U.S. level are the average of the states' prices weighted by their box movement and approximate net weight per box. The box weights used are as follows: Grapefruit: Arizona and California Desert Valleys - 64 lbs., other California areas - 67 lbs., Florida - 85 lbs. and Texas - 80 lbs.; Lemons - 76 lbs; Limes - 88 lbs.; Oranges: Arizona and California - 75 lbs., Florida - 90 lbs., and Texas - 85 lbs.; Tangelos - 90 lbs.; Tangerines: Arizona and California - 75 lbs., and Florida - 95 lbs.; Temples - 90 lbs. State monthly fresh market vegetable prices are f.o.b. shipping point, f.o.b. equivalents, or point of first sale prices. The state MYA prices for fresh market vegetables are the weighted average of the monthly prices using estimated monthly movements. U.S. monthly prices are the weighted average of state prices. U.S. MYA prices are derived by dividing the sum of states' values of production by their sum of production. (Prices for broccoli, carrots, cauliflower, celery, and onions may include some processing.)

In terms of total farm expenditures, the production component accounts for 67 percent of the total and the family living component represented by the Bureau of Labor Statistics' Consumer Price Index (CPI-U) accounts for less than 20 percent of the index. The remaining three components are: (1) interest charges per acre on farm real estate debt and interest on farm non-real estate debt; (2) taxes payable per acre on farm real estate; and (3) wage rates paid to hired farm labor. Prices Paid Indexes are not seasonally adjusted and there are no adjustments for quality changes. The 1910-14=100 base is required under the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938, as amended. The Index of Prices Paid by Farmers for Commodities and Services, Interest, Taxes, and Farm Wage Rates on the 1910-14=100 base is called the Parity Index. The Parity Index reflects relative price change but does not take into account the technological advancements and increased productivity of American agriculture. Federal regulations require that the National Agricultural Statistics Service publish parity prices, the indexes, and relevant price data monthly in "Agricultural Prices". In 1995, the National Agricultural Statistics Service reweighted and reconstructed the prices paid and received by farmers indexes. The indexes are now based on 5-year moving average weights. The changes in the construction of the indexes simplifies updating component items and reference periods while maintaining appropriate weights. The overall changes to the weighting and construction of the indexes did not have a significant effect on the index levels, and therefore, had little effect on the level of parity prices. Indexes are newly published on a 1990-92=100 base using a 1990-92 reference period. As mentioned above, the 1910-14=100 base is continued for the parity index. Beginning in 1995, the Prices Paid Survey of items purchased by farm establishments is conducted annually in April. Surveys are conducted for feed, livestock purchases, seed, fertilizer, ag chemicals, fuel, and farm machinery. The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) indexes measure price changes and replace survey activity for farm supplies and repairs, autos and trucks, building materials, and marketing containers. The BLS indexes are used monthly to measure price change when no survey data are collected. Before 1995, quarterly prices paid surveys were conducted by NASS. About 135 selected items are priced to represent groups of similar items purchased which make up the major production expenditures categories. The number of input items consumed on farms is so extensive that it is not feasible to collect price data for all of the inputs. Items on the questionnaire are described in the simplest way consistent with definite identification. Firms are requested to report the prices for the item most commonly sold which meets the general specification criteria. Reported data are summarized to regional estimates and then weighted to U.S. prices. Weights are based on available consumption or expenditure information. Average prices including State and local taxes are used in computing the indexes and are published in Agricultural Prices in the same month as the survey. Regional prices are published for feed, fuel, and fertilizer. U.S. prices are published for the remaining items surveyed. Revisions: Indexes are recomputed monthly to reflect the most recent price changes and include any updated prices or indexes. Prices Paid Indexes including all components and subcomponents are subject to annual revisions as additional data become available. In April, index revisions published reflect yearly change for items surveyed annually by the Prices Paid Survey and adjusted BLS indexes used for the one month time lag between the reporting and summary date. Annual revisions generally are made in the taxes, interest, and rent, and farm services components of the index. Parity Ratio: The Parity Ratio is the ratio of the Prices Received Index, 1910-14=100, to the Index of Prices Paid by Farmers for Commodities and Services, Interest, Taxes, and Wage Rates on a 1910-14=100 base. The Parity Ratio is a measure of price relationships; not a measure of farm income, of farmer's total purchasing power, or of farmer's welfare. The well-being of the farm community depends upon a number of factors other than price relationships such as changes in production efficiency and technology, quantities of farm products sold, and supplementary income, including income from off-farm jobs, and federal farm programs. Ratio: The ratio of the Prices Received Index to the Prices Paid Index on the 1990-92 base provides an indication of the change that has occurred in the prices farmers receive for their commodities relative to the change in the cost of inputs using the average of 1990-92 as the reference period. When this ratio is greater than 100 percent, it implies that farm commodity prices have increased at a faster rate than farm input prices. When the ratio is less than 100 percent, farm input prices are increasing at a more rapid pace than farm commodity prices.

January 1995, using a different procedure. NASS uses fixed composition rations common to dairy and poultry production as established by University Animal Nutritionists. The methodology utilizes major raw feed component prices from the NASS agricultural commodity prices published monthly. The major feed components of corn and soybeans account for 83 to 91 percent of the total ingredients in the rations. See footnotes 3/, 4/, 7/, and 8/ for Ration Composition per 100 pounds. The contribution for feed additives and antibiotics are held constant. 2/ Simple average of monthly ratios for calendar year.
