Introduction
This publication presents potato estimates of acreage, yield per acre, production, farm disposition, season average price,
value, and utilization of sales including processing for the 2021 season with historic comparisons. Also included are first
of the month potato stocks (December, February, April, and June) for the 13 potato producing States. Percent of acreage
planted by type, and certified seed acres are also included for selected States.
These estimates are based on information furnished by producers, processors, and cooperating State or Federal Agencies.
The various sources include: Market News Service rail and truck shipments, Federal-State inspections, and miscellaneous
data available through marketing programs.
Price estimates represent average returns to growers for all uses and for all methods of sale. These prices are applied to
total production to compute value of production, and to the quantity sold to compute value of sales. Some unsold potatoes
contribute to the value of production, including farm use for seed, feed, home use, and loss. The United States season
average price is obtained by weighting State prices by quantities sold.
A crop year is associated with the calendar year in which harvest is accomplished. Generally, the marketing season
closely follows harvest except for fall harvested potatoes, when marketing from storage may extend through August of the
following year.

Statistical Methodology
Survey Procedures: Potato estimates are the results of a variety of surveys. Potatoes are included in the June and
December Quarterly Agricultural Surveys, but also follow Grower Special Surveys. Special grower disposition surveys
are conducted at the end of each season to provide additional details about the crop. Telephone follow-up of mail survey
non-respondents is used to ensure adequate coverage.
Estimating Procedures: Information obtained from the special grower disposition surveys and federal administrative
data is used to establish estimates of acreage, production, amount sold, and usage on farm where grown. These estimates
are reviewed for errors, reasonableness, and consistency with historical estimates.
Revision Policy: All estimates for the previous crop year can be revised at this time. End-of-season estimates of
production are made following harvest and are subject to revision the following year based on a thorough review of all
available data.
Reliability: Survey results are subject to non-sampling errors such as omission, duplication, imputation for missing data,
and mistakes in reporting, recording, and processing the data. These errors cannot be measured directly, but they are
minimized through rigid quality controls in the data collection process and a careful review of all reported data for
consistency and reasonableness.
