The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) conducted the 2012 Census of
Agriculture, analyzed the data, and prepared this and other reports. The census provides a comprehensive picture of
American agriculture in 2012, 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 2012 Census of Agriculture.
Also essential were the many partners who communicated about the census and encouraged producers to respond. Farm
organizations, stakeholder groups, agricultural media, community-based organizations, and land grant and other
universities helped to 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, Indiana.

2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

Introduction

HISTORY
The 2012 Census of Agriculture is the 28th Federal
census of agriculture and the fourth 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
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

agriculture being conducted in 1925, 1935, and
1945. The agriculture census continued to be taken
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 changed the 5year data collection cycle to years ending in 2 and 7
to coincide with other economic censuses. That 5year cycle continues to this day.
USES OF CENSUS DATA
The census of agriculture provides a detailed picture
of U.S. farms and ranches every five years. It is the
only source of uniform, comprehensive agricultural
data for every State and county or county equivalent.
Census of agriculture data are routinely used by farm
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. The 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,
INTRODUCTION VII

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;

The current definition was first used for the 1974
Census of Agriculture and has been used in each
subsequent agriculture census. 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

• Measure the usage of modern technologies such
as conservation practices, organic production,
renewable energy systems, internet access, and
specialized marketing strategies;

Most data are comparable between the 2012 and
2007 censuses. A few changes were made to the
2012 census that affect comparability for some data
items. See Appendix B, General Explanation and
Census of Agriculture Report Form, Data Changes
for a detailed discussion of these 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.

• Develop new and improved methods to increase
agricultural production and profitability;

REFERENCE PERIOD

• Plan for operations during drought and
emergency outbreaks of diseases or infestations
of pests.

Reference periods for the 2012 Census of
Agriculture were similar to those used in the 2007
Census of Agriculture. Reference periods used were:

• Provide geographic data on production so
agribusinesses will locate near major production
areas for efficiencies for both producers and
agribusinesses;

AUTHORITY
The 2012 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.
VIII INTRODUCTION

• 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, market value of land and buildings,
and grain storage capacity 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 U.S.-level historical data
through the 1982 census and tables 2 through 63
show detailed U.S.-level data usually accompanied
by historical data from the 2007 census. Tables 64
through 70 show detailed U.S.-level data crosstabulated by several categories for the 2012 census
only.
Chapter 2. State-level data are presented in 55
tables in 2 different table formats - State and State
summary. Most tables include 2007 historical data.
State tables include general data for all States within
the U.S.. The State names are listed in alphabetical
order in the column headings. State summary tables
provide comprehensive data for all States 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 U.S.. Table B provides reliability estimates of
U.S. totals for selected items. Table C summarizes
coverage, nonresponse, and misclassification
adjustment for selected items at the State level.
Table D provides total number of American Indian
or Alaska Native farm operators both on and off
reservations by State.
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
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

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 operators. These activities
included, but were not limited to:
• Obtaining mail lists from organizations likely to
contain names and addresses of minority farm
operators;
• Conducting pre-census promotion activities that
targeted women, American Indian and Alaska
Native, Black and African American, and
Spanish, Hispanic, or Latino origin farm
operators;
• Special emphasis was placed on collecting data
from individual operators on American Indian
reservations in three States.

Special studies such as the 2013 Farm and Ranch
Irrigation Survey and the 2013 Census of
Aquaculture are part of the census program and
provide supplemental information to the 2012
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

2012 Census of Agriculture - State Data
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

Appendix A.
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 operators 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 Census Mail List (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, and telephone
number 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 agriculturerelated lists. NASS also obtains special commodity
lists to address specific list deficiencies. These
outside source lists are matched to the NASS list
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

using record linkage programs. Most names on
newly acquired lists 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 field offices
routinely contact these potential farms to determine
whether they meet the farm definition. For the 2012
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 2012 CML
started in 2009 by updating list information from
respondents to the 2007 Census of Agriculture.
Between 2010 and 2012, NASS conducted a series
of National Agricultural Classification Surveys
(NACS) on approximately 1.7 million records,
which included nonrespondents from the 2007
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 the United States Postal
Service’s National Change of Address Registry and
the Locatable Address Conversion System to ensure
they were correct and complete. 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
APPENDIX A A - 1

removed from the list.
The official CML for the 2012 Census of Agriculture
was established on September 1, 2012. The list
contained 3,009,641 records. There were 2,387,326
records that were thought to meet the NASS farm
definition and 622,315 potential farm records, which
included NACS nonrespondents, other records added
to the CML by the NASS 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 Agricultural Survey (JAS) to quantify the
number and types of farms not on the CML. The
tracts in the JAS that are not on the CML are said to
be in the Not on the Mail List (NML) domain. If a
tract in the NML domain is determined to be a farm
during the census, it is an NML farm. The NML
farms are used to estimate the undercoverage
associated with the census.
The NASS area frame, which is used for the JAS,
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 2012 JAS sample was increased to improve the
farm counts for operations that produced specialty
commodities or had socially disadvantaged or
minority operators. The total sample consisted of
14,376 segments of which 3,291 were additional
segments added to facilitate the use of the JAS as an
Agricultural Coverage Evaluation Survey (ACES).
The additional segments were added based upon
A - 2 APPENDIX A

multivariate sample allocations to target specific
items at the U.S. level. The 2012 JAS consisted of
sample segments from all States, with the exception
of Alaska where NASS does not maintain an area
frame.
During the JAS prescreening operation, each tract is
identified as either agricultural or non-agricultural.
Each JAS agricultural tract is identified as a farm or
non-farm in June based on the farm definition. Nonagricultural 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 2012 JAS were matched to
the CML. Those from the JAS 2012 survey 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 36,021
records. An additional 403 June area tracts linked to
Census records that were Undeliverable as
Addressed (UAA) were later added to the NML
domain. A total of 36,424 NML records were
summarized of which 5,565 records were truly 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
operators provided a measure of the undercoverage
of farms on the CML. The percentage of farms not
represented on the CML varied considerably 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 2012 Census of
Agriculture, to increase the level of awareness and
response among all U.S. agricultural producers.

The unifying force behind the 2012 communications
campaign was the theme “There’s Strength in
Numbers.” 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 - There’s strength in numbers.
Partnership and Local-Level Outreach

• Phase 1 ran from October 2011 − July 2012. 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 2012 − December 2012. It
notified farm operators and agricultural
organizations that the census would be mailed in
December, and encouraged communications
regarding the census.
• Phase 3 ran from December 2012 – July 2013. It
focused on census data collection with messaging
urging response, reminding operators that it’s-nottoo-late-to-respond, and thank-you messaging.
• Phase 4 began in February 2014. It communicated
information about the data release plan, which has
four phases:






Phase A (November 2012 − December 2013)
focused on thanking farmers for their
participation in the census and partners for
their leadership.
Phase B (January 2014 – February 2014) drew
attention to the preliminary census release.
Phase C (February 2014 through May 2014)
focused on the final census release.
Phase D (ongoing) continues to focus on the
census findings as they are released.

As part of the plan, NASS targeted selective
communications and outreach efforts on beginning
and minority farm operators. All of these efforts
were accomplished through an integrated
communications program that focused on four
primary areas: partnership building, local-level
outreach, public relations, and paid media. External
support was provided by a private agricultural
communications agency.
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

At the national level, NASS officials met with
leaders from dozens of key 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 2012 Census of Agriculture through
publications, 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. All
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 more than 40 television and radio
public service announcements (PSAs) featuring the
U.S. Secretary of Agriculture, State secretaries,
directors, and commissioners of agriculture and
leaders from community-based organizations. The
PSAs, available in both English and Spanish,
encouraged farmers and ranchers to respond to the
2012 Census of Agriculture.

Coverage of American Indian and Alaska
Native Farm Operators
To maximize coverage of American Indian and
Alaska Native farm operators, special procedures
were followed in the census. A concerted effort was
made to get individual reports from every American
Indian and Alaska Native farm operator 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
APPENDIX A A - 3

on the entire reservation. NASS reviewed these data
and removed duplication with any data reported by
American Indian or Alaska Native farm operators
who responded on an individual census report form.
Additionally NASS obtained, from knowledgeable
reservation officials, the count of American Indian
and Alaska Native farm operators (on reservations)
who were not counted through individual census
report forms, but whose agricultural activity was
included in the reservation-level report form.

pieces to the USDA blog highlighting the census.
These public relations efforts at the national, State,
and local levels helped ensure that NASS’s 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.

This information is summarized in Table D,
American Indian and Alaska Native Operators:
2012, providing the number of farm operators (for up
to three operators per farm) 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, plus the total
number of American Indian or Alaska Native
operators farming on reservations as reported by
reservation officials. The count from the individual
report forms is summarized in the “Individually
reported” column. It includes operators on or off
reservations. The “Other” column provides counts
of operators 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.

For the 2012 Census of Agriculture, NASS placed
special emphasis on reaching new and beginning
farmers, while continuing efforts to improve its
reach
within
previously
under-represented
populations. Even with increasingly limited budgets
and resources, NASS was able to apply a portion of
funds towards paid media. Strategically, NASS
purchased limited print and online advertising in
areas where there was the potential for high
concentrations of under-represented populations and
new and beginning farmers and ranchers.

Public Relations
In the public relations arena, NASS and the
contractor 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 to deliver materials to the 12
regional and 46 field offices and created a “Partner
to Promote the Census” portal on the census website
to deliver public relations materials and tools to
external stakeholders. The materials included, but
were not limited to: customizable news releases,
feature stories, newsletter articles, blogs; drop-in
advertisements; website buttons and banners;
PowerPoint templates; brochures; and more. In
addition, at the national level NASS issued a dozen
news releases citing department and agency
spokespeople and published timely and relevant

DATA COLLECTION
Method of Enumeration
Data collection was accomplished primarily by
mailout/mailback, but supplemented with Electronic
Data Reporting (EDR) on the Internet, and personal
enumeration for special classes of records in the
census
operations.
Personal
enumeration
(interviewing) involved the use of both ComputerAssisted Telephone Interviewing (CATI) and
Computer-Assisted Personal Interviewing (CAPI).
Enumerators at the NASS National Operations
Center in St. Louis, MO 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 2012 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 in
the initial mailout received either a postcard or prerecorded voice message announcing the census mail
packets were coming.

Report Forms
There were seven regionalized versions of the report
forms used for the 2012 Census of Agriculture. The
report form versions were designed to facilitate
reporting crops most commonly grown within each
report form region. Additionally, an American
Indian report form was developed to facilitate
reporting for operations on reservations in Arizona,
New Mexico, and Utah. The regional report form
numbers are: 12-A101, 12-A102, 12-A103, 12A104, 12-A105, 12-A106 and 12-A107 (HI). The
American Indian report form is 12-A200. All of the
forms allowed respondents to write in specific
commodities that were not listed on their form.
Report Form Mailings
Pre-notification by postcard or pre-recorded message
began December 10, 2012. Approximately 3.0
million mail packets were mailed in December 2012.
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
2013 to all operations that received mail packets.
First follow-up mail packets were mailed in midFebruary 2013 to approximately 1.0 million
nonrespondents. Second follow-up mail packets
were mailed in mid-March 2013 to approximately
750,000 nonrespondents.
Personal Follow-up
Operating concurrently with NPC’s mail data
collection efforts, NASS telephone call centers
targeted selected groups of census nonrespondents
for telephone enumeration. NASS field offices
targeted selected groups of census records for inperson enumeration. These efforts were referred to
as:

Operator Follow-up
• Low Response County Follow-up
• Last Call Nonresponse Follow-up
• Not on Mail List (NML) Follow-up
Suspicious Out-of-Scope Follow-up. The Suspicious Out-of-Scope Follow-up was a phone followup that began in February 2013 and was conducted
through May 2013. It included records that mailed
their form back with a response that they were no
longer farming. These operations had reported
agricultural information in another survey during
2012. The operations were re-contacted with a CATI
instrument to either verify the respondent was not
farming or complete a census report form.
Criteria Record Follow-up. Nonrespondents and
refusals to the National Agricultural Classification
Surveys received unique coding on the CML and are
referred to collectively as Criteria Records for
follow-up data collection. These Criteria Records
typically had a lower probability of meeting the farm
definition and were less likely to respond. It was
critical to identify those records in this group that
represented farms to provide coverage of the small
farm population. Small farms make up a significant
portion of the overall U.S. farm population.
For the 2012 Census of Agriculture, 276,043 Criteria
Records were included in the Census Mail List
(CML). A sample of 23,739 Criteria Records was
selected for targeted data collection efforts. The
sampled records were first contacted by telephone
using the census CATI instrument beginning in
February 2013 after the initial mail returns were
processed. Certified mail to 18,831 respondents was
used for those who could not be contacted by
telephone. Data collection resulted in 10,887 returns
from both telephone and certified mail. The in-scope
rate from the returns was applied to the remaining
criteria records during replication, which is described
in the next sub-section.
Must Case Follow-up. Must cases were known
large operations, the absence of which could have
significantly affected the accuracy of census results.
For the 2012 Census of Agriculture, 118,533 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 operation, its nonfarm status was
APPENDIX A A - 5

documented. CATI calling of nonrespondent Must
cases was undertaken by call centers from March
2013 through May 2013, after the initial and first
follow-up mailing. Following the CATI calling, the
remaining nonresponse Must cases were assigned to
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 and Alaska Native Farm
Operator Follow-up. The American Indian report
form (12-A200) was mailed to all operations in
Arizona, New Mexico and Utah thought to have an
American Indian or Alaska Native operator. 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 followup. A concerted effort was made to get individual
reports from every American Indian and Alaska
Native farm operator in the country. If this was not
possible within a reservation, a single reservationlevel census report was obtained from
knowledgeable reservation officials. These reports
covered agricultural activity on the entire
reservation. The NASS reviewed these data and
removed any duplicate data reported by American
Indian or Alaska Native farm operators from that
reservation who responded on an individual census
report form. Additionally NASS obtained, from
knowledgeable reservation officials, the count of
American Indian and Alaska Native farm operators
(on the reservations) who were not counted through
individual census report forms, but whose
agricultural activity was included in the reservationlevel report form.
Low Response County Follow-up. The Low
Response County (LRC) follow-up activity was used
to increase the response rate in all counties to at least
75 percent. CATI was used for this follow-up
activity. NASS utilized an adaptive design technique
to identify particular records for telephone contact,
in an effort to increase coverage on minority
operations and operations known to produce
specialty commodities. In early April 2013, NASS
identified nonresponse cases in counties with a
response rate of less than 75 percent. Nonresponse
records in these counties were then prioritized so that
minority operations and specialty commodity
producers were the primary records delivered to
A - 6 APPENDIX A

phone enumerators. Nonrespondent telephone
contact information was transmitted electronically to
NASS call centers and incorporated into their CATI
instrument. CATI follow-up activities began in midApril 2013 and continued through mid-June 2012.
Automated procedures were employed biweekly to
ensure that the record selection procedures were
targeting counties that would meet the goals of
increasing minority operation coverage and to
monitor the number of respondents needed to reach
the 75 percent county response rate. When the
required number of completions was achieved for a
given county, LRC activity was suspended in that
county.
Last Call Nonresponse Follow-up. The Last Call
Nonresponse Follow-up activity was utilized to
increase the national response rate to 80 percent. All
remaining nonresponse records with an expected
value of sales greater than $50,000 in counties that
had not achieved a 75-percent response rate were
eligible for this phone follow-up activity. CATI was
used for this activity and began in mid-July 2013 and
lasted until August 1, 2013. Automated procedures
were employed to monitor the number of
respondents needed and completed. When a 75
percent response rate was achieved for a given
county, follow-up in that county was suspended.
NASS achieved its goal of an 80-percent national
response rate utilizing Last Call Nonresponse
Follow-up.
Not on the Mail List (NML) Follow-up. To
account for farming operations not on the CML,
NASS used its 2012 JAS supplemented sample from
the NASS area frame. The NASS area frame covers
all land in the U.S. with the exception of Alaska and
includes all farms. As previously described, the
NASS conducted a record linkage operation between
the CML records and the records from the 2012 JAS.
Those 2012 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 2013. Beginning in
March 2013, CATI was used for nonresponse
follow-up for NML nonrespondents.

Replication
Replication is utilized to improve efficiency and
reduce respondent burden.
To adjust for
nonresponse associated with criteria records in the
2007 Census of Agriculture, NASS replicated a set
of respondents determined to be in-scope from the
last mailing of the Agricultural Identification Survey
(AIS), conducted in December 2006. The replicated
records represented operations that were relatively
small in size and homogeneous in nature. Replicated
records were assumed to be in-scope, based on their
AIS reported data.
For the 2012 Census of Agriculture, a first mailing
was sent to the criteria records, a subpopulation
consisting of all of the approximately 74,000
respondents to the 2011 NACS mailing. This
included pre-notification using a pre-recorded
message, the first mailing, and the thank-you
reminder post card. No further follow-up efforts
were conducted on this subpopulation. As in 2007,
the agricultural operations in this subpopulation were
relatively small in size and homogeneous in nature.
The responses from the criteria records were used to
estimate the in-scope rate for the 20,168
nonrespondents from this subpopulation.
Records were selected randomly for replication or
coding as out-of-scope based on the estimated inscope rate. The use of the in-scope rate after one
mailing is supported by analysis of 2007 census data,
which indicated the early in-scope rate was a
reasonable proxy for the in-scope rate for the
subpopulation of criteria records that did not respond
to the NACS immediately preceding the census
mailing. Of the 20,168 NACS records with no
response, 16,762 records were selected to be inscope.
Data relationships between the 2012 responses and
their respective NACS data were applied to the
NACS data for the nonrespondents selected to be inscope to derive values to seed replication. Then
replication was conducted through imputation.
Criteria records with no response to the December
2011 NACS were excluded in the capture-recapture
adjustments for coverage, response, or correct
classification. The in-scope records were each given
an initial weight of one. However, for calibration, the
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

replicated in-scope records were eligible for a
coverage adjustment.

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
field offices and headquarters on a flow basis. The
images were available for use in all stages of review.
Images were computer generated for reports
obtained from the telephone interviews and the
Internet.

Editing Data
Captured data were processed through a computer
formatting program, which verified that records were
valid – that the record identification 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
APPENDIX A A - 7

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 the NPC, the NASS
Electronic Data Reporting (EDR) web utility, 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 to 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 overlooked item. 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
were categorized as out-of-scope for the census; that
is, they were classified as being a nonfarm. Out-ofscope records that NASS had reason to believe might
be in-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 mailout, NASS established a group of 90
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.
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.
Imputing Data
The edit determined the best value to impute for
reported responses that were deemed unreasonable
A - 8 APPENDIX A

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 operators who had not
changed in five years, demographic variables such as
race and sex 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 proved
inadequate, data from a reporting farm of similar
type, size, and location (a donor farm) 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 2007 census data, reconfigured to emulate 2012
data and then edited using 2012 logic. Data from the
2010 Census Content Test were similarly remapped
and edited before being added to the original donor
pools. As 2012 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 2012 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 data2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

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 was
no satisfactory donor 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, a program provided values from a
table of donor pool averages in lieu of values from
an individual donor, wherever possible.
This
‘failover’ utility was new 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 2012 records,
ensuring that 2012 data were used in imputations for
these 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 inflate or reduce the donor record's value for
the imputed field. 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.

USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

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 researched and, when necessary,
corrections were made and the record interactively
edited again.
When NASS summarizes the census of agriculture, it
assigns the data from an individual report to the
“principal” county. The principal county is based on
the operator’s response to a census question and is
the one county in which the majority of agricultural
products are produced. Because some large
operations have significant production in multiple
counties, some reports were broken up into multiple
source counties, to more accurately allocate the data.
Similarly, large farms operating in more than one
State were treated as distinct, state-specific
operations. A separate report form was completed
for each county or State and a separate record was
added.

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 operators 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 that
were fully adjusted for list undercoverage,
nonresponse and misclassification at the county
level.
APPENDIX A A - 9

In the 2007 Census of Agriculture, adjustments for
undercoverage and nonresponse were estimated
independently. In 2007, as in earlier censuses, the
NASS area frame was used to adjust for
undercoverage. This process assumed that the area
frame provided complete coverage and that all
operations were correctly classified as farm/nonfarm.
To determine the extent of undercoverage in 2007,
the CML records were matched to the area-frame
tracts designated as agricultural, non-agricultural
with potential, or non-agricultural with potential
unknown in June. The area-frame tracts that did not
match a CML record were designated as being in the
Not on the Mail List (NML) domain. In 2007, tracts
that were determined to be non-agricultural without
potential during the pre-screening phase of the June
Agricultural Survey (JAS) were not considered in the
NML domain construction. The NML domain tracts
were sent a census form and, if a tract was associated
with a farm, then that farm contributed to the
correction for undercoverage.
To adjust for nonresponse in 2007, each responding
CML record was given a probability of being a farm
using a classification tree. The inverse of this
probability became the nonresponse weight for that
record. For undercoverage, the adjustment provided
State-level values. A State-level estimate was based
on the weighted sum of the responders with an
adjustment for the non-responders within that State
plus the State-level undercoverage adjustment.
Because State-level farm count estimates based on
this two-step process sometimes had high standard
errors and apparent biases, the national-level
adjusted estimates were smoothed across States,
producing initial State-level farm operation coverage
targets.
Research following the 2007 Census of Agriculture
led to the realization that some area-frame operations
were misclassified as farm/nonfarm, which was in
conflict with the previous assumption that the JAS
farm classification was the accurate classification.
Further, because nonresponse could only occur if the
operation was on the CML, undercoverage and
nonresponse were dependent. Thus in 2012, NASS
used capture-recapture methodology to adjust for
undercoverage, nonresponse, and misclassification.
To implement capture-recapture methods, two
independent surveys were required. The 2012
Census of Agriculture (based on the CML) and the
A - 10 APPENDIX A

2012 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; that is, the
capture probability πC is of interest:


C

= π(CML, Responded, Farm on Census|Farm)

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 πC. 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,



CCFC

= π(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 ( ˆ CCFC / ˆ C 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

USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

referred to as the capture-recapture estimator (CR):
CR 


i F

ˆ CCFC

,i

ˆ C , i

where F is the set of all CML records classified as
farms based on their responses to the census
questionnaire.
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 2012 JAS sample were
matched to the 2012 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. (This differs from
the 2007 processes, which considered only the
agricultural tracts and non-agricultural tracts with
potential or with potential unknown. It also included
CML records that responded to the census as a farm
or nonfarm and CML records that did not respond to
the census.)

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; one identified as a nonfarm is referred
to as out-of-scope. From the set of matched records,
three groups with conflicting farm status were
identified: 1) in-scope JAS records that were out-ofscope on the census and 2) census in-scope and JAS
out-of-scope records, and 3) in-scope JAS records
that did not have a census response. The records
with conflicting farm status were sent to 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
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

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
2012, 11.6 percent of the records in the Census
Sample had unresolved farm status. Of these, 18.9
percent were from nonresponse to the census report
form.
The probability an operation is a farm was estimated
for the records with unresolved farm status. Using
the 2012 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 crossvalidation 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, county-level socio-demographic
variables from the most recent U.S. population
census were also considered. 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 so that the probability of
capture πC may be written as

APPENDIX A A - 11

πC = π(CML, Responded, Farm on Census|Farm)=
π(CML|Farm)π(Responded|CML, Farm)π(Farm on
Census|CML, Responded, Farm)

The probability of capturing a farm depends on the
characteristics of the farm. Using five-fold crossvalidation, 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 included in modeling the
probability of a farm being on the CML.
Consequently, the weight associated with a Must
record was the reciprocal of the probability of a farm
being on the CML.
Note 2: Two sets of models were created. One set
estimated the probability of capture for Texas farms.
The other set provided estimated capture
probabilities for farms in the remaining States,
except for Alaska.
Note 3: 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.

A - 12 APPENDIX A

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, and both types of misclassification.
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 operator -- value of agricultural
sales (8); age (2); female; race (4); Hispanic origin of
principal farm operator ; 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 2012 estimates from
capture-recapture and the published 2007 state
estimates with the restrictions that the smoothed
targets were within one standard error of the capturerecapture estimates. The smoothed State targets were
rescaled so that they summed to the national capturerecapture 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
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

procedures could have over-adjusted or underadjusted 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. Commodity
coverage targets with acceptable ranges were
established by subject-matter experts for each State,
with New England treated as a State.
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. To ensure that the calibration
process converged with so many constraints, it was
desirable to provide some tolerance ranges for each
target. Although full calibration to a single point
estimate would assure that the weighted total among
census respondents equaled its target for each
calibration variable in either set, it was not always
possible to calibrate to such a large number of target
values while ensuring that farm weights were within
a reasonable range and not less than one. Because of
this and because calibration targets are estimates
themselves 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.
This tolerance strategy made it possible for the
calibration algorithm to produce a set of satisfactory,
adjusted weights.
Ranges for the farm operation coverage targets were
determined differently from the commodity targets.
The State target for number of farms had no
tolerance range. The tolerance range for the 64 other
State farm operation coverage targets was the
estimated smoothed State total for the variable plus
or minus one-half of the standard error of the
capture-recapture estimate. This choice limited the
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

cumulative deviation from the estimated total for a
variable when State totals were summed to a U.S.
level total. The commodity target tolerance ranges
were determined by subject-matter experts, based on
the amount of confidence in the source, and usually
were less than plus or minus two percent of the
target. Ranges were not necessarily symmetric
around the target value.
Census data collection was assumed to be complete
for very large and unique farms with their weight
being controlled to 1 during the calibration
adjustment process. For all other farms, adjustment
weights were obtained using truncated linear
calibration which forced the final census record
weights to fall in the interval [1,6]. Adjustments
began with the nonresponse and misclassification
adjusted weights. Through calibration, a second
stage weight that simultaneously satisfied all farm
operation coverage and commodity coverage
calibration targets was obtained. Calibration was
seldom able to adjust weights so that all State targets
were met. Within the calibration process, the highest
priority for meeting a target was given to the number
of farms, total land in farms, and top cash-receipt
commodities accounting for 80 percent of the State’s
production. All remaining targets associated with
commodities and characteristics of farms and farm
operators had equal priority. If a value within the
tolerance range of any variable could not be
achieved in a given State, the variable was removed
as a target in that State and the calibration algorithm
was rerun.
Weight computations in the final algorithms were
performed to several decimals. Thus, the fullyadjusted weights were non-integer numbers. To
ensure that all subdomains for which NASS
publishes summed to their grand total, fully-adjusted
weights were integerized. This eliminated the need
for rounding individual cell values and ensured that
marginal totals always added correctly to the grand
total. As an example of how the integerization
process worked, assume there were five census
records in a county with final noninteger coverage
weights of 2.2, for a total of 11. The integerization
process randomly selected four of these records and
rounded their final weight down to 2.0 and rounded
the fifth record up to 3.0, for a total of 11.
The proportions of selected census data items that
APPENDIX A A - 13

are 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. Cell suppression was used to protect the
cells that were determined to be sensitive to a
disclosure of information. Farm counts are not
considered sensitive and are not subject to disclosure
controls.
Based on agency standards, data cells were
determined to be sensitive to a disclosure of
information if they violated either of two criteria
rules. The threshold rule was violated 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 was violated 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 were 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 in all
linear relationships in all tables. These data cells
were referred to as complementary suppressions.
These cells were 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
A - 14 APPENDIX A

indicate a complementary suppression. A data user
could not determine whether a cell with a (D)
represented a primary or a complementary
suppression.
Field office analysts reviewed all complementary
suppressions to ensure no cells had been withheld
that were vital to the data users. In instances where
complimentary 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 operators
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. There are many
ways to measure the quality of a census.
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
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

were included in the 2012 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 recently in
the literature. Because the CML contains both farm
and nonfarm records, the response rate is an
indicator of replying to the census data collection
effort, but does not reflect whether those responding
met the farm definition. The response rate for the
2012 Census of Agriculture CML is 80.1 percent as
compared with a response rate of 85.2 percent for the
2007 Census of Agriculture and 88.0 for the 2002
Census of Agriculture.
The 2012 Census of Agriculture response rate used
the fourth response rate formula from the American
Association of Public Opinion Research Response
Rate Standard Definitions manual:

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 operator. These records were stratified
(grouped) based on their probabilities of being inscope had they responded. The estimated number of

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

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, it 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 capturerecapture procedure that uses the area sample
enumeration from the June Agricultural Survey. The
largest contribution to error in the census estimates is
due to the adjustments for nonresponse,
undercoverage, misclassification, calibration and
integerization.

Variability in Census Estimates due to
Statistical Adjustment
In conducting the 2012 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 ,
for farms and nonfarms that were misclassified as
nonfarms and farms, respectively, for calibration,
and for integerization. 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 Texas and Alaska were
modeled separately from the other States, the
variances of a national-level data item for these two
States were computed separately and added to the
A - 16 APPENDIX A

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 the group jackknife approach. To
conduct the jackknifing, k 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. In turn, each group, j = 1, 2, …, k, was
deleted and the capture-recapture estimate CRi(j) was
computed for each data item i at the specified
geographical level, such as nation, State, or county,
using the remaining (k – 1) groups. Estimates of the
variance and standard error associated with the
capture-recapture estimate CRi 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
country-wide coverage. Based on 2007 data, k = 10
was determined to be the largest number of groups
that could be formed and still have each group
provide adequate coverage within all States and
agricultural strata. Thus, 10 jackknife groups were
used to provide standard errors for 2012 State and
national estimates. To capture the additional
variability from calibration and integerization, the
standard errors were computed using the calibrated,
integerized capture-recapture estimates from the
jackknife groups. 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 jackknife group.
When the constraints of the calibration process
produced an artificially small standard error, the
more conservative capture-recapture standard error
was used. Note that the jackknife groups must only
be 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
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

associated with the sample estimate:
CV



SE ( CR i )
CR

100 %

i

where SE(CRi) is the standard error of the capturerecapture 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 (GCVs) 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.

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
give rounded numbers, 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.

NONMEASURED ERRORS IN THE CENSUS
PROCESS

Processing Error

As noted in the previous section, sampling errors can

Processing of each census report form was another
potential source of nonsampling error. All mail

APPENDIX A A - 17

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 operators 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 operator’s absence from the farm
during the data collection period, and the operator’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, 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.

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 operators 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
Agricultural Survey tract operator names to the
CML. Area operators 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 operator was on the CML) or
undercounts (excluding a tract whose operator 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 operators 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 2012 JAS were matched to the 2012
census using probabilistic record linkage. The
records of operations with unresolved farm status
were reviewed by the 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.

estimated the probability of an agricultural operation
with unresolved farm status being a farm. The
remaining four models estimated the probability of
coverage, response, and correct classification of
farms and of nonfarms. Each model was fit
independently by two people. For some models, both
statisticians obtained the same model. Although the

covariates in the two selected models differed some
for the other logistic models, the estimated
probabilities were similar, but not identical. The
reported standard errors account for the variability in
the parameter estimates of the selected models, but
not for the additional variation due to model
uncertainty. They also do not account for any bias
associated with a model.

General Explanation and Census of Agriculture Report Form

DEVELOPMENT OF THE CENSUS
REPORT FORMS
Prior to release of the results from the 2007 Census
of Agriculture, NASS was preparing for the 2012
Census of Agriculture. The first team established
was the 2012 Census Content Team. This team was
tasked with content determination and report form
development. They reviewed the 2007 report form
content, solicited input from internal and external
customers, developed criteria for determining
acceptance and/or rejection of content for the 2012
Census of Agriculture report forms, tested the
effectiveness of the 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 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 the 2010 Census of Agriculture
Content Test in early 2011. The test consisted of
three phases: cognitive pretesting, national mail-out,
and follow-up interviews. Results from the testing
produced one final report form type -- a 24-page
regionalized form with 7 versions (12-A101 thru 12A107). The regionalized report forms include crop
sections designed to facilitate reporting crops most
commonly grown within a report form region. Many
items in these sections are either prelisted in the
tables or listed below the tables. A sample copy of
the report form and instruction sheet is included in
this appendix.

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 regional version. 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; and in
Hawaii, coffee. 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. An exception to this procedure
was hay.
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
was 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’’ section on the report form
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

under the appropriate cropland items – cropland on
which all crops failed or were abandoned, cropland
in cultivated 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 cut Christmas trees,
and acres in production for short rotation woody
crops that were not harvested. Acreage in these
commodities were included in cropland harvested
whether the crop was harvested or not. Abandoned
orchards were reported as cropland idle, not as
harvested cropland, and the individual abandoned
orchard crop acres were not reported.
Crops that were only hogged or grazed 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
2012 harvest and later hogged or grazed was
reported as cropland harvested and not as other
pasture and grazing land that could have been used
for crops.
Quantity harvested was not obtained for crops such
as fruits and nuts, berries, vegetables and melons,
and nursery and greenhouse crops.
Age of operator. See Farms by age and primary
occupation of operator.

APPENDIX B B - 3

American Indian and Alaska Native farm
operators, total. Data are reported in Chapter 1,
tables 60 through 70, and Chapter 2, table 50. In
Chapter 1, table 60 data include farm characteristics
for principal operator reporting one race only, table
61 data include farm characteristics reported for a
maximum of three operators reporting American
Indian or Alaska Native alone or in combination
with other races, table 62 data are reported for
principal operator only, table 63 include data for a
maximum of three operators for those operators that
reported only one race.
In Chapter 2, table 50 data are reported for a
maximum of three operators reported in the operator
characteristics section. The individual operators were
added to the census mail list for most reservations.
Those reservations that did not include all the
individual operators on the census mail list were
identified and the data for the entire reservation,
including the data for the operators that would have
met the definition of a farm, were collected on one
report form. The count of reservations and the
number of operators that were reported on these
reservations are included in Appendix A, Table D.

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.
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
include 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 value. See Aquaculture.

Amount from State and local government
agricultural program payments. See Total income
from farm-related sources, gross before taxes and
expenses.

Bantams. This is a new item for 2012. In 2007
bantams were reported as other poultry. See layers.
Bees. See Colonies of bees and Honey collected.

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 spent to repay CCC loans. This is a new
item for 2012. 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

Camelina. This is a new item for 2012. In 2007 and
previous censuses, data were included in other field
crops. Other field crops data are comparable.
Cattle on feed. Cattle on feed is defined as cattle
and calves that were fed a ration of grain or other
concentrates that will be shipped directly from the
feedlot to the slaughter market and are expected to
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

produce a carcass that will grade select or better.
This category excludes cattle that were pastured
only, background feeder cattle, and veal calves.
Cattle on feed sold. Data are for cattle on feed sold
that weighed 500 pounds or more and 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.

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.
Cherries. Cherries were reported as either sweet
cherries or tart cherries. Combined crops or nonspecified cherry acres were not options for the
respondent. Total acres, bearing age acres, and
nonbearing age acres were reported for each crop.
Christmas trees, cut. Data are for acres of
Christmas trees in production, either cut or to be cut,
the number of these acres that were irrigated, and the
number of trees cut along with the value of sales of
the harvested trees.
Christmas trees, live. These data were reported as
nursery stock. They are generally sold as balled and
burlapped trees from the operation.
Chukars. (Chukkars) This is a new item for 2012.
In 2007, chukars were reported as other poultry.
Coffee. Data were collected only in Hawaii.
Colonies of bees. Colonies of bees were tabulated in
the county where the bees’ owner had the largest
value of all agricultural products raised or produced.
Colonies are often moved from farm-to-farm over a
wide geographic area. Package bees are not included
as separate colonies. 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. Published colonies
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

inventory is the total number of colonies owned on
December 31, 2012.
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.
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. This is a new
item for 2012.
Replacement dairy heifers under production
contract. This is a new item for 2012. In 2007,
replacement dairy heifers were included in “Other
cattle, livestock, poultry, or aquaculture under
production contract.”
APPENDIX B B - 5

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. Layers and replacement
dairy heifers were included in 2007, but were
reported individually on the 2012 report form. Data
are not comparable to 2007.
Vegetables, melons, and potatoes under production
contract. This category is the number of farms that
produced and delivered vegetables, melons, and
potatoes grown under a production contract.
Other crops under production contract. Data are for
the total number of farms that have production
contracts for other crops. This category includes all
crops except grains, oilseeds, vegetables, melons,
and potatoes.
Commodity Credit Corporation loans. This
category includes nonrecourse marketing loans for
wheat, corn, sorghum, barley, oats, cotton, rice,

by the 2008 Farm Bill.
Crop and livestock insurance payments received.
See Total income from farm-related sources, gross
before taxes and expenses.
Crop units of measure. The regional report forms
allowed the operator to report the quantity of field
crops harvested in a unit of measure commonly used
in the region. When the operator 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 2012 except for
citrus crops and sugarcane for sugar; limes in region
three States; avocados in Florida and California;
olives in California and Arizona; and pineapples and
coffee in Hawaii.

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 2012.
3. Land occupied with growing crops for harvest in
2013 or later years but not harvested or summer
fallowed in 2012 (except fruit or nuts in an
orchard, grove, or vineyard or berries being

Farms by age and primary occupation of
operator. Data on age and primary occupation were
obtained from up to three operators per farm. When
compared with 2007 results, the average age of
farmers increased slightly. Older operators may be
“retired” (with little if any sales) and still report
farming as their primary occupation since they often
have limited opportunity for off-farm jobs. See
Primary occupation of the operator.
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, State, and local programs other than the
CRP, WRP, FWP, and CREP, and Commodity
Credit Corporation loans. See Total market value of
agricultural products sold and government payments.
The Average Crop Revenue Election (ACRE)
program allows producers to enroll a farm in the
program based upon an agreement to forgo countercyclical payments, receive a 20 percent reduction in
their direct payments, and a reduction in their
marketing assistance loan (MAL) rates by 30 percent
for all commodities produced on the farm. The
ACRE program provides eligible producers with
state level revenue guarantees based on the 5-year
state average yield and the 2-year national average
price. The program is designed to provide revenue
support to farmers as an alternative to the price
support that farmers are use to receiving from
commodity programs.

Farms by legal status. All farms were classified by
legal status in the 2012 census. In 2007 this category
was referred to as Farms by type of organization.
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, partnership was further
subclassified into:
a. Family held or other than family held.
b. More than 10 stockholders.

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
2012
census,
all
agricultural
production
establishments
(farms,
ranches,
nurseries,
greenhouses, etc.) were classified by type of activity
or activities using the NAICS code. The 2012
census is the fourth 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
B - 8 APPENDIX B

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 Three,
(ISIC, Revision 3) for some sixty high level
groupings. Following are explanations of the major
classifications used in 2012.

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).
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

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.
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.
Animal
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
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

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 farm. Data were reported by the principal
operator only. Households that received funds
because they were only landlords, custom equipment
operators, or provided other production services
were not included. Published data can exceed the
number of operators listed under Operators, 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 operator. All farms were
classified by tenure of operators. 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 operator, 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.
APPENDIX B B - 9

Farms by type of organization. This is a new item
for 2012. The data categorizes an operation’s
ownership and legal farming status.
Operation with 50 percent or more ownership
interest held by operator and/or persons related by
blood, marriage, or adoption. The data are used to
measure the principal operator ownership interest in
the organization.
Limited Liability Corporation. 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 2012 report form.
B - 10 APPENDIX B

Foliage plants, indoor (including hanging
baskets). For 2012, (including hanging baskets) was
added to the description for clarity. Data are
comparable.
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 tame,
small grain, and wild 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 nuts tree. Total acres, bearing age acres,
and nonbearing age acres were collected. In 2012,
the value of sales was collected; in 2007, it was
combined with berries.

Government payments. This category consists of
direct payments as defined by the 2008 Farm Bill;
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 operators. 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. The Average Crop Revenue
Election (ACRE) Program is a program administered
by USDA's Farm Service Agency (FSA). Producers
can sign up for this optional, revenue-based countercyclical program, which is an alternative to receiving
counter-cyclical payments (CCPs).
Grain and bean combines. Data were collected for
self-propelled combines only.
Grain storage capacity. Data include the capacity
of all storage structures on the operation and
normally used to store whole grains, oilseeds, and
pulse crops. These structures can be bins, silos,
buildings, trailers, etc. The capacity or usage of any
off-farm public or commercial storage facilities was
excluded. For 2012, pulse crops text was added to
the Grain Storage screener question for clarity. Pulse
crops include dry beans, dry peas, lentils, lupines,
and other minor pulse crops. Data are comparable.
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.
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, sod,
mushrooms, vegetable seeds, and propagative
materials.
Gross cash rent or share payments. See Total
income from farm-related sources, gross before taxes
and expenses.

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 2012 census
definition for harvested cropland is the same as the
2007 definition.
Hay, all hay including alfalfa, other tame, small
grain, and wild. 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 is 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 tame 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
(excluding small grains).

Guineas. This is a new item for 2012. In 2007,
guineas were reported as other poultry.

Hay, wild dry. Data shown represent acreage and
dry tons of hay harvested that was predominately
wild or native grasses, even if it had some fill-in
seeding of other grasses.

Harvested cropland. This category includes land
from which crops were harvested and hay was cut,

Haylage, grass silage, and greenchop, all. Data
shown represent the acreage and quantity harvested

of all types (alfalfa and all other). 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.
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
bees.
Horses and ponies, owned. See “Owned horses and
ponies.”
Hungarian partridge. This is a new item for 2012.
In 2007, Hungarian partridge were reported as other
poultry.
Income. Net cash farm income is published for the
operation and operator. 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 operators.
Income from farm-related sources. See Total
income from farm-related sources, gross before taxes
and expenses.
B - 12 APPENDIX B

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.
Irrigated land. This category includes all land
watered by any artificial or controlled means, such as
sprinklers, flooding, furrows or ditches, subirrigation, 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 waste water 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, 2012. The
proportion of land area in farms may exceed 100percent 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. Data are
comparable with 2007.
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 and offers
landowners financial incentives for conservation

practices.
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 also reported harvested acres and not
harvested acres by 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 operator’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 nonNative Americans was reported in the name of the
cooperative group that used the land. In many
instances, an entire American Indian reservation was
reported as one farm.
Land in orchards. 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. Respondents were instructed not to report
abandoned plantings and plantings of fewer than 20
total fruit, citrus, or nut trees or grapevines.
2012 Census of Agriculture
USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

Land in two or more counties. With few
exceptions, the land in each farm was tabulated as
being in the operator’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 use practices. This is a new category for
2012. It 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
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.
Conservation tillage. Conserves the soil by reducing
erosion and decreasing water pollution.
Conventional tillage. Refers to tillage operations that
use standard practices for a specific location and
crop to bury crop residues.
Cover crop. A crop planted primarily to manage soil
fertility, soil quality, water, weeds, pests, diseases, or
wildlife.
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
APPENDIX B B - 13

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.

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 2012
regardless of who received the payment. It is
equivalent to total sales and it includes sales by the
operators as well as the value of any shares received
by partners, landlords, contractors, or others
associated with the operation. It includes value of
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. Also, 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 2012 does not necessarily
represent the sales from crops harvested in 2012.
Data may include sales from crops produced in
earlier years and may exclude some crops produced
in 2007 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 2012.
B - 14 APPENDIX B

The value of agricultural products sold was
requested of all operators. If the operators 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 2012 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.

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 2012.
Migrant farm labor on farms with hired labor.
Operators 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. This is a new item for
2012. The 2007 census did not collect a 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.
Milk from cows, value of sales. This is a new item
for 2012. In 2007, milk from cows value of sales
also included other dairy products from cows. Data
are not comparable.
Milk from sheep and goats, value. This is a new
item for 2012. In 2007, milk from sheep and goats
value of sales was included in Other livestock
products. Data are not comparable.
Mink, live. For the 2012 census, data are for
inventory and sales of live mink. Mink pelts are
included in Other livestock products. In 2007, mink

Mint for tea leaves. This is a new item for 2012. In
2007 and previous censuses, data were included in
other field crops.
Miscanthus. This is a new item for 2012. In 2007
and previous censuses, data were included in other
field crops.
Miscellaneous poultry. Poultry other than chickens
or turkeys. Listed 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.
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 for more information on
production reported on the census.
More than one race reported. This category
represents those operators who chose to report more
than one race on the census form.
Mushroom spawn. Respondents reported only
sales; growing area was not summarized.

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 the operators. This value
is the operators’ 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 operators. Net cash farm income of the operator
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 operators
that broke even).
2. Farms with net losses.
Noncitrus fruit, all. This is a summation of all acres
reported in the commodities defined as noncitrus
such as apples, grapes, and plums.

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.

Operator. The term operator designates a person
who operates a farm, either doing the work or
making day-to-day decisions about such things as
planting, harvesting, feeding, and marketing. The
operator may be the owner, a member of the owner’s
household, a hired manager, a tenant, a renter, or a
sharecropper. If a person rents land to others or has
land worked on shares by others, he/she is
considered the operator only of the land which is
retained for his/her own operation. The census
collected information on the total number of
operators, the total number of women operators, and
demographic information for up to three operators
per farm.
Operator characteristics. Operators (up to three
operators per farm) were asked to report primary
occupation, sex, age, race, place of residence, if
retired, number of days worked off farm, year in
which his/her operation of the farm began, year
began operating any farm, hired manager, number of
persons living in the operators’ households, internet
access and type of services, and Spanish, Hispanic,
or Latino origin. Information on the total number of
operators and total number of women operators was
collected from each operation.
The principal
operator was asked to report the percentage of total
household income that came from the farm
operation. In addition, operators two and three were
asked if they were the spouse of the principal
operator.
Operators, number. Demographic and other
information were collected for up to three operators
per farm - the principal operator plus up to two
additional operators. This may be fewer than the
total operators on some farms. Demographic data for
up to three operators reported are presented
separately for women, by race categories, and for

to indicate if they had organic production according
to USDA’s National Organic Program (NOP) in
2012. Respondents reported whether their organic
production was certified or exempt from certification
and the sales from NOP produced commodities.
They also reported whether they had acres
transitioning into NOP production and the value of
sales of USDA NOP certified or exempt organically
produced commodities. Also see Total organic
product sales.
Organic value of sales. See Total organic product
sales.

form. In Chapter 2, table 27, Other Crops the data
relate to any field crops that did not have a specific
code in the field crops section.
Other crops and hay. Data are for the total market
value of all crops not categorized into one of the
prelisted crop sales categories on the report form and
include hay sales. This category includes crops such
as grass seed, hay and grass silage, haylage,
greenchop, hops, maple syrup, mint for oil, peanuts,
sugarcane, sugarbeets, etc.

Other livestock and poultry purchased or leased.
See Total farm production expenses.
Other livestock products. Data for this category
include the number of farms that sold livestock
products that did not have a specific code on the
2012 report form. Data are for farms with
production, not necessarily sold. Mink pelts and
rabbit pelts are included here in 2012, but were in
specific codes in 2007, so data are not directly
comparable.
Other noncitrus fruit. Data relate to any noncitrus
fruit not having a specific code on the census report
form.
Other nuts. This category includes any nut crop not
having a specific code on the report form.
Other oranges. Data are for Oranges other than

Other pasture and grazing land that could have
been used for crops without additional
improvements. This category includes land used
only for pasture or grazing that could have been
used for crops without additional improvement.
Also included are acres of crops hogged or grazed
but not harvested prior to grazing. However,
cropland that was pastured before or after crops
were harvested in 2012 was included as harvested
cropland rather than cropland for pasture or
grazing. In 2007, this category was referred to as
other pasture or grazing land that could have been
used for crops without additional improvements.
This is a wording change only; data are
comparable.

all category. Data for Bartlett and other pears are
found only in the State publications where collected.

Other tame hay. See Hay, other tame dry hay.

Pecans, all. All pecans is a summation of Pecans,
improved and Pecans, native and seedling. Total
acres, bearing acres, and nonbearing acres were
collected by category.

Other vegetables. Data shown for other vegetables
relate to any vegetable not having a specific code on
the census form.
Owned horses and ponies. Only horses and ponies
which are owned by the operation and sold
contribute to the total value of production of the
operation. Horses on the operation which are not
owned and sold do not contribute to the total value
of production. Therefore, the value of horses owned
sold is published instead of all sold horses. This
removes not owned horses sold that were not part of
an operation’s value of production. It is not possible
to publish a value for Total horses sold in 2012 as
the data were not summarized.
Patronage dividends. See Total income from farmrelated sources, gross before taxes and expenses.
Payments received by the contractee for
commodities
produced

contract. These data show the number of farms and
the dollar amount the contractees received from
contractors for commodities produced under
contract. This is not the market value of the
commodities delivered, but the payment or fee the
operators received for commodities delivered.
Peaches, all. Data for all peaches were collected as a
category in all States except for California and
Arizona. Peach data in California and Arizona were
collected separately for clingstone and freestone
peaches. The data were later combined with all
peaches for publication. Data for clingstone and
freestone are found in the California and Arizona
publications only.
Peacocks and peahens. This is a new item for 2012.

data include all other peppers including chile.
Pimientos were reported as other vegetables.
Permanent pasture and rangeland, other than
cropland and woodland pastured. This land use
category encompasses grazable land that does not
qualify as woodland pasture or cropland pasture. It
may be irrigated or dry land. In some areas, it can be
a high quality pasture that could not be cropped
without improvements. In other areas, it is barely
able to be grazed and is only marginally better than
wasteland.
Plums. This item was reported as an individual item
only in California and Arizona. All other States
reported plums in a combined plum and prune
category.
Plumcots, pluots, and other plum-apricot hybrids.

In all other States they were reported in the Other
noncitrus category. In 2007, this category was
referred to as pluots and they were reported as an
individual item in California, Arizona, Idaho,
Oregon, Alaska, and Washington. Pluot is a
registered trademark of plumcots, which are genetic
crosses between plums and apricots. This is only a
wording change, all data are comparable.
Potatoes. Potato acres are included in the vegetable
acres. Data are for total acres harvested, acres
harvested for fresh market, and acres harvested for
processing. Production was not collected.

one or more of the race categories. In Hawaii
operator race data were collected for American
Indian (included Alaska Native), Chinese, Filipino,
Japanese, Korean, Other Asian, Black or African
American, Native Hawaiian, other Pacific Islander,
and White. 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,

or grazed.
Total farm production expenses. Includes the
production expenses provided by the operators,
partners, landlords (excluding property taxes), and
production contractors for the farm business in 2012.
Tenant farmers reported expenses paid by landlords
for the agricultural production on the operation, as
well as their expenses. Farm or ranch operators who
rented part of their land to others reported only the
expenses for the land they actually used themselves
and not expenses for land rented to others. The 2012
total farm production expenditure includes all farmrelated expenses such as customwork, fuel costs, cost
of cutting timber, services provided to hunters,
cooperative membership fees, etc. However, if the
income from these farm-related categories was not
considered a part of the operation (i.e., if the income
was regarded as derived from a separate business),
then the associated expenses were not included. The
contractor’s portion of expenses was solely based on
computer generated estimates for 2012.

Wind turbines. See Renewable energy systems.
Woodland pastured. This category includes all
woodland used for pasture or grazing during the
census year. Woodland or forest land pastured under
a per-head grazing permit was not counted as land in
farms and, therefore, was not included in woodland
pastured.

Write-in crops. To reduce the length of the report
form, only the major crops for each region were
prelisted on the regional report forms. For other
crops, the respondent was asked to look at a list of
crops in each section and write in the crop name and
its code. For crops that had no individual code listed
on the report form, the respondent was to write in the
crop name and code of the appropriate ‘‘all other’’
category for that section. Write-in crops coded as

code when possible. Crops not assigned a specific
code were left in the appropriate ‘‘all other’’
category.
Years operating any farm. This is a new item for
