The same form is used three times a year as follows: DECEMBER – The first use of this form in December provides basic data for the sugarbeet estimates in the Annual Crop Production Summary in mid-January. County totals are optional in December. However, if preliminary county totals are available, it is helpful to have the data. The following estimates are published from the December inquiry: State and U.S. acreage, yield and production. APRIL – This form is used in April, after much of the processing has been completed. County data are used at this time to compile official county estimates on acreage, yield, production and average sucrose. Updated acreage, yield and production statistics for each State are also published in the June Crop Production report. NOVEMBER - In November, all data reported in April are returned for your review and update. At that time, the prices paid to growers are also requested. Price per ton and value of production by State are published for the first time. All previously published acreage, yield and production data will be reviewed and updated at this time. Your efforts and cooperation in providing these data are greatly appreciated.
The information you provide will be used for statistical purposes only. In accordance with the Confidential Information Protection provisions of Title V, Subtitle A, Public Law 107–347 and other applicable Federal laws, your responses will be kept confidential and will not be disclosed in identifiable form to anyone other than employees or agents.
