Agricultural Prices
Washington, D.C.
Released June 29, 2010, by the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), Agricultural Statistics Board, U.S. Department of Agriculture. For information
on Agricultural Prices see page 40, office hours 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET.
June Farm Prices Received Index Down 2 Points
The preliminary All Farm Products Index of Prices Received by Farmers in June, at 139 percent, based on 1990-1992=100,
decreased 2 points (1.4 percent) from May. The Crop Index is down 5 points (3.3 percent) and the Livestock Index decreased
1 point (0.8 percent). Producers received lower prices for cattle, onions, hogs, and wheat and higher prices for lettuce, milk,
turkeys, and cucumbers. In addition to prices, the overall index is also affected by the seasonal change based on a 3-year
average mix of commodities producers sell. Increased monthly marketings of wheat, grapes, hay, and cantaloups offset
decreased marketings of oranges, strawberries, cattle, and sweet corn.
The preliminary All Farm Products Index is up 6 points (4.5 percent) from June 2009. The Food Commodities Index, at 139,
decreased 3 points (2.1 percent) from last month but increased 9 points (6.9 percent) from June 2009.
Prices Paid Index Down 1 Point
The June Index of Prices Paid for Commodities and Services, Interest, Taxes, and Farm Wage Rates (PPITW) is 182 percent
of the 1990-1992 average. The index is down 1 point (0.5 percent) from May but is 2 points above (1.1 percent) June 2009.
Lower prices in June for diesel, feeder cattle, supplements, and feeder pigs more than offset higher prices for complete feeds,
other services, mixed fertilizer, and other machinery.

Reliability of Prices Received Estimates
Definition: Prices received represent sales from producers to first buyers. They include all grades and qualities. The average
commodity price from the survey multiplied by the total quantity marketed theoretically should give the total cash receipts for
the commodity.
Survey Procedures: Primary sales data used to determine grain prices were obtained from probability samples of about 2000
mills and elevators. These procedures ensure that virtually all grain moving into commercial channels has a chance of being
included in the survey. Generally, States surveyed account for 90 percent or more of total U.S. production. Livestock prices
are obtained from packers, stockyards, auctions, dealers, and market check data from AMS-USDA, private marketing
organizations, and state commodity groups and agencies. Inter-farm sales of grain and livestock are not included since they
represent very small percentages of the total marketings. Grain marketed for seed is also excluded. Fruit and vegetable prices
are obtained from sample surveys and market check data from AMS-USDA, private marketing organizations, state agencies,
and universities.
Summary and Estimation Procedures: Survey quantities sold are expanded by strata to state levels and used to weight
average strata prices to a state average. State prices are then weighted to a U.S. price based on expanded marketings.
Recommendations are prepared by the State Field Offices and reviewed by the Agricultural Statistics Board in Washington,
D.C. State recommendations are reviewed for reasonableness with survey data, other States, and recent historic estimates.
Revisions: For most items, the current month's preliminary price represents a 3-5 day period around the 15th of the month.
Previous month's prices represent actual dollars received for quantities sold during the entire month. Revisions are published
in monthly issues of Agricultural Prices.
Reliability: U.S. price estimates based on probability surveys generally have a sampling error of less than one percent for the
major commodities such as corn, wheat, soybeans, cotton, and rice. Current methods of summarization for non-probability
commodities are not designed directly to calculate sampling errors. However, analytical measures approximate the U.S.
relative sampling errors at around five percent. Any nonsampling errors are attributed to such things as the inability to obtain
correct information, differences in interpreting questions or definitions, mistakes in coding or processing the data, etc. Efforts
are made at each step in the survey process to minimize these nonsampling errors.

(1990-1992=100), is down 0.5 percent from May 2010 but is up 1.1 percent from June 2009.
PRODUCTION INDEX: The June index, at 185, decreased 0.5 percent from last month but increased 0.5 percent from last
year. Lower prices in June for diesel, feeder cattle, supplements, and feeder pigs more than offset higher prices for complete
feeds, other services, mixed fertilizer, and other machinery.
Feed: The June index, at 171, decreased 0.6 percent from May and 13 percent from last June. Since May, lower prices for
supplements, feed grains, and hay & forages more than offset higher prices for complete feeds and concentrates.
Livestock & Poultry: The June index, at 133, decreased 2.9 percent from last month but increased 19 percent from last year.
Since May, prices are lower for feeder cattle and feeder pigs. The June feeder cattle price, at $108.40 per cwt, is down $2.70
from the May price. June feeder pigs averaged $165.00 per cwt, down $20.00 from May.
Fertilizer: The June index, at 245, is unchanged from May but is 9.6 percent below June a year ago. Since May, higher
prices for mixed fertilizer and potash & phosphate offset lower prices for nitrogen.
Chemicals: The June index, at 144, is unchanged from May but decreased 2.7 percent from last June. Compared with last
month, prices are higher for herbicides and insecticides.
Fuels: The June index, at 274, is down 4.2 percent from a month earlier but is 15 percent above June 2009. Compared with
last month, prices are lower for diesel, gasoline, and LP gas.
Machinery: The June index, at 227, is unchanged from May but is 3.2 percent above last June. Compared with last month,
prices are higher for other machinery.
CONSUMER PRICE INDEX: The May 2010 Consumer Price Index, as issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, for all
urban consumers (CPI-U) increased 0.1 percent before seasonal adjustment to a level of 218.178 (1982-1984=100). The April
index is 218.009. For the 12-month period ending in May, the overall index increased 2.0 percent.

Agricultural Prices Agricultural Statistics Board June 2010 39 NASS, USDA
Reliability of Prices Paid Estimates
Definition: Prices paid by farmers represent the average costs of inputs purchased by farmers and ranchers to produce
agricultural commodities. Conceptually, the average price when multiplied by quantity purchased should equal total producer
expenditures for the item.
Survey Procedures: The prices paid data are obtained from establishments that sell goods and services to farmers and
ranchers. Annually, about 8,500 firms are randomly selected from lists by type of item sold with an average response rate in
the range of 75-80 percent. Firms are asked to report the price for the specified item "most commonly bought by farmers" or
that was the "volume seller". Approximately 135 items are surveyed each March to represent all production input items
purchased. The survey reference period for most items is the 5 business days centered around the 15th of the month.
Separate prices paid surveys are conducted for agricultural chemicals, fuels, feed, fertilizer, machinery, and seed.
Summary and Estimation Procedures: The annual March Prices Paid Survey is summarized as a nonprobability survey.
Average prices reported are aggregated to the region and U.S. level using weights available from expenditure data and other
administrative sources. Price recommendations are prepared by the State Field Offices and Headquarters for review by the
Agricultural Statistics Board in Washington, D.C. Also, the change in price level for individual items surveyed are combined
to the regional and U.S. levels, and are published as prices paid indexes referenced to a specific base period. Prices paid
indexes for new autos and trucks, building materials, farm supplies, motor supplies, and marketing containers are updated
based on price changes measured in selected Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) indexes.
Revisions: Any revisions are published in the monthly and in annual issues of Agricultural Prices. The basis for revision
must be supported by additional data that directly affect the level of the estimate. More revisions are likely for March when
separate prices paid surveys are conducted, in lieu of BLS indexes, by the USDA to measure price change.
Reliability: Current methods of summarization for the March data are not designed directly to calculate sampling errors.
However, analytical measures approximate the U.S. relative sampling errors for major items around 10 percent. Any
nonsampling errors are attributed to such things as the inability to obtain correct information, differences in interpreting
questions or definitions, mistakes in coding or processing the data, etc. Efforts are made at each step in the survey process to
minimize these nonsampling errors.
Program Change: Effective January 1, 1995, the National Agricultural Statistics Service updated the weights and changed
the construction of its prices paid and received by farmers indexes. A Federal Register Notice dated October 28, 1994
discussed these program modifications.
A 1990-1992 reference and base period replaced the 1977 reference and 1971-1973 base weight period. Five-year moving
average weights replaced the current fixed 1971-1973 base period weights. The 1910-1914=100 price indexes, required by
statute for computing parity prices, were linked forward based on the changes in the new 1990-1992=100 indexes. The new
indexes were constructed by multiplying the ratios of the current prices to the base period prices by the moving average
weights (adjusted for seasonal marketing patterns for the prices received indexes).
