Statistical Methodology
Survey Procedures: Primary data for the "Chickens and Eggs" report are from
monthly questionnaires sent to producers. An attempt is made to collect
information for layer and egg estimates from each known contractor and
independent producer who has at least 30,000 table egg layers, flocks of
hatchery supply layers, or pullet only operations with at least 500 pullets.
Coverage for operations with less than 30,000 table egg layers are estimated
each month based on Agricultural Census data and data reported in December.
Approximately 500 contractors, independent egg producers, and pullet only
operations are contacted each month.
Estimating Procedures: Sound statistical methodology is employed to derive
estimates from the reported data. All data are analyzed for unusual values.
Data from each operation are compared to their own past operating profile and
to trends from similar operations. Data for missing operations are estimated
based on similar operations or historical data. NASS field offices prepare
these estimates by using a combination of survey indications and historic
trends. Individual State estimates are reviewed by the Agricultural
Statistics Board for reasonableness.
Revision Policy: The previous 24 month's estimates are subject to revision if
late reports or corrected data indicates a different level. Estimates will
also be reviewed after data from the Department of Agriculture five-year
Census of Agriculture are available. No revisions will be made after that
date.
Reliability: Estimates are based on a census of all known contractors and
independent producers who have at least 30,000 table egg layers, flocks of
hatchery supply layers, and pullet only operations with at least 500 pullets
and therefore, have no sampling error. However, estimates are subject to
errors such as omission, duplication, and mistakes in reporting, recording,
and processing the data. While these errors cannot be measured directly, they
are minimized through strict quality controls in the data collection process
and a careful review of all reported data for consistency and reasonableness.
Terms and Definitions of Chickens and Eggs Estimates
All Layers includes both table egg and hatching egg flocks regardless of
size.
