DEFINITIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR REPORTING
1. Report Quantity Received and Value Per Unit on a Pay-Weight Basis: The term "pay-weight" refers to the quantity
of the product delivered and paid for at the rate or rates specified in contract or purchase agreements. Culls and rejects
received, but considered being of no value (including tonnage for which the grower received a nominal amount, such as
$1.00 a ton in lieu of the return of the dockage), should not be included in this report. Processors who establish
tolerance for culls and rejects should report the tonnage, which was paid for at the contract rate and should deduct only
the dockage for culls and rejects in excess of the prescribed tolerance.
2. Value Per Unit: Value per unit is defined as all payments to growers including the costs of materials and services
provided (listed in Item 3) to get the raw commodity to the plant receiving door.
3. Materials and Services Furnished by Processors: Include costs for the following materials and services furnished
without charge to growers and in excess of grower charges.
a. preparation, planting, and cultivating (including depreciation and repair of equipment);
b. seed or plant costs not deducted (including distribution);
c. weed, insect, or disease control (including survey, equipment, application, and materials);
d. harvesting costs (including cost of operation, depreciation, repair, moving equipment, and labor procurement);
e. delivery cost to the processing plant door (including payment to hired truckers, cost of company trucks, and growing
hauling allowances);

growers, plus other costs listed in Item 3 for the quantity delivered as defined in Item 1. Do not include dividends paid
growers, which are based on capital stock ownership. If all payments have not been made to growers, please estimate
the average total payments to growers in arriving at per unit value as defined in Item 2. Label it "Estimate" and indicate
