Statistical Methodology

Survey Procedures: Crop progress and condition estimates are based on survey data collected each week from early

April through the end of November. The non-probability crop progress and condition surveys include input from

approximately 3,600 respondents whose occupations provide them opportunities to make visual observations and

frequently bring them in contact with farmers in their counties. Based on standard definitions, these respondents

subjectively estimate the progress of crops through various stages of development, as well as the progress of producer

activities. They also provide subjective evaluations of crop conditions.

Most respondents complete their questionnaires on Friday or early Monday morning and submit them to the National

Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) Field Offices in their States by mail, telephone, fax, e-mail, or through a secured

internet website. A small number of reports are completed on Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday. Regardless of when

questionnaires are completed, respondents are asked to report for the entire week ending on Sunday. For reports submitted

prior to the Sunday reference date, a degree of uncertainty is introduced by projections for weekend changes in progress

and condition. By the end of the 2020 season, over 95 percent of the data were being submitted through the internet

website. As a result, the majority of all data are submitted on Monday morning, significantly reducing projection

uncertainty.

Respondents are sent written reporting instructions at the beginning of each season and are contacted periodically to

ensure proper reporting. Terms and definitions of crop stages and condition categories used as reporting guidelines are

available on the NASS website at www.nass.usda.gov/Publications/National_Crop_Progress.

Estimating Procedures: Reported data are reviewed for reasonableness and consistency by comparing with data reported

the previous week and data reported in surrounding counties for the current week. Field Offices summarize the reported

data to district and State levels, weighting each county’s reported data by NASS county acreage estimates. Summarized

indications are compared with previous week estimates, and progress items are compared with earlier stages of

development and historical averages to ensure reasonableness. Weather events and respondent comments are also taken

into consideration. State estimates are submitted to the Agricultural Statistics Board (ASB) along with supporting

comments, where they are compared with surrounding States and compiled into a National level summary by weighting

each State by its acreage estimates. National crop planting progress, progress of development stages, and condition

estimates are weighted using the program State’s average planted acres over the previous three crop years. National crop

harvest progress estimates are weighted using the program State’s average harvested acres over the previous three crop

years. Pasture and range condition is weighted using pasture acreage and/or livestock inventories from the most recent

Census of Agriculture. Days suitable for fieldwork, topsoil moisture and subsoil moisture are weighted using cropland

acreage from the Census of Agriculture.

Revision Policy: Progress and condition estimates in the Crop Progress report are released after 4:00 pm ET on the first

business day of the week. These estimates are subject to revision the following week.
