2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE INTRODUCTION V

INTRODUCTION

HISTORY

For more than 150 years, the U.S. Department of Commerce, Bureau of the Census, conducted the

census of agriculture. However, the 2002 Appropriations Act transferred the responsibility from the

Bureau of the Census to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), National Agricultural Statistics

Service (NASS). The 2007 Census of Agriculture for the U.S. Virgin Islands is the second census in

the U.S. Virgin Islands conducted by NASS.

The census of agriculture is taken to obtain agricultural statistics for each county, State (including

territories and protectorates), and the Nation. The first U.S. agricultural census data were collected in

1840 as a part of the sixth decennial census. From 1840 to 1920, an agricultural census was taken as

a part of each decennial census. Since 1920, a separate national agricultural census has been taken

every 5 years.

The 2007 census is the 14th census of agriculture of the U.S. Virgin Islands. The first, taken in

1920, was a special census authorized by the Secretary of Commerce. The next agriculture census

was taken in 1930 in conjunction with the decennial census, a practice that continued every 10 years

through 1960. The 1964 Census of Agriculture was the first quinquennial (5-year) census to be taken

in the U.S. Virgin Islands. In 1976, Congress authorized the census of agriculture to be taken for 1978

and 1982 to adjust the data-reference year to coincide with the 1982 Economic Censuses covering

manufacturing, mining, construction, retail trade, wholesale trade, service industries, and selected

transportation activities. After 1982, the agriculture census reverted to a 5-year cycle.

Data in this publication are for the calendar year 2007, and inventory data reflect what was on hand

on December 31, 2007. This is the same reference period used in the 2002 census. Prior to the 2002

census, data was collected in the summer for the previous 12 months, with inventory items counted as

what was on hand as of July 1 of the year the data collection was done.

CENSUS USES

The census of agriculture is the leading source of statistics about the U.S. Virgin Islands’s

agricultural production and the only source of consistent, comparable data at the island level. Census

statistics are used to measure agricultural production and to identify trends in an ever changing

agricultural sector. Many local programs use census data as a benchmark for designing and evaluating

surveys. Private industry uses census statistics to provide a more effective production and distribution

system for the agricultural community.

AUTHORITY AND AREA COVERED

The census of agriculture is required by law under the “Census of Agriculture Act of 2002,” Public

Law 105-113 (Title 7, United States Code, Section 2204g). The law directs the Secretary of Agriculture

to conduct a census of agriculture every five years, covering the years ending in 2 and 7. The census

of agriculture includes each State, Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and

the Commonwealth of Northern Mariana Islands.

The census data for the U.S. Virgin Islands were collected in accordance with a Memorandum of

Agreement approved by the Administrator of NASS and by the Commissioner of Agriculture of the U.S.

Virgin Islands. It was conducted with the cooperation and assistance of the U.S. Virgin Islands

Department of Agriculture.

INTRODUCTION VI 2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE

FARM DEFINITION

The statistics collected in the census relate to places with agricultural operations qualifying as farms

according to the census definition. In the U.S. Virgin Islands, this included all places from which $500

or more of agricultural products were produced and sold, or normally would have been sold, during the

calendar year 2007. The farm definition is the same used in the previous census.

COMPARABILITY OF DATA

In general, data from the 2007 census are comparable with those of previous censuses.

TABULAR PRESENTATION

Tables 1 through 17 show detailed data for the Virgin Islands and for St. Croix and St. Thomas/St.

John, accompanied by historic data from the previous census. Tables 17 through 21 provide 2007

island data cross-tabulated by tenure of operator, age of operator, size of farm, and value of agricultural

products sold.

SPECIAL TABULATIONS

Custom-designed tabulations can be developed to individual user specifications on a programming

cost reimbursable basis. Inquiries about special tabulations should be directed to Data Lab

Administrator, Marketing and Information Services Office, National Agricultural Statistics Service, U.S.

Department of Agriculture, 1400 Independence Ave., S.W ., W ashington, DC 20250.

DISCLOSURE RULES

In keeping with the provisions of Title 7, United States Code, no data are published that would

disclose the operations of an individual farm. However, the number of farms in a given size category or

other classification is not considered a disclosure, so this information may be given even though other

information is withheld.

DOLLAR VALUES

All dollar values presented in this report are in current dollars, i.e., 2007 data are in 2007 dollars and

2002 data in 2002 dollars. The dollar values have not been adjusted for changes in price levels

between census years.

REFERENCE PERIODS

Inventories of livestock, poultry, and machinery and equipment are the number on hand as of

December 31, 2007. Crop production, crop and livestock sales, and expense data are for the calendar

year 2007.

ABBREVIATIONS AND SYMBOLS

The following abbreviations and symbols are used throughout the tables:

2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE APPENDIX A A-1

APPENDIX A. General Explanation

DATA COLLECTION

Method of Enumeration

As in the previous censuses of the U.S. Virgin Islands, a direct enumeration procedure was used in the 2007

Census of Agriculture. Enumeration was based on a list of farm operators compiled by the U.S. Virgin Islands

Department of Agriculture. This list was compiled with the help of the USDA Farm Services Agency located in St.

Croix. The statistics in this report were collected from farm operators beginning in January of 2003.

Each enumerator was assigned a list of individuals or farm operations from a master enumeration list. The

enumerators contacted persons or operations on their list and completed a census report form for all farm

operations. If the person on the list was not operating a farm, the enumerator recorded whether the land had been

sold or rented to someone else and was still being used for agriculture. If land was sold or rented out, the

enumerator got the name of the new operator and contacted that person to ensure that he or she was included in

the census.

Training Program

The project manager, crew leaders, and enumerators employed for the census in the U.S. Virgin Islands

received special training in accordance with instructions prepared by NASS. The training included practice in

interviewing, filling out the report form, and detailed discussion of the enumerator's instructions.

Report Form

Prior to each agriculture census, the content of all census report forms is reviewed to eliminate inquiries no

longer needed, to identify new items necessary to meet user needs, and to better describe the agricultural

situation in the Islands. Data requests are solicited from farm organizations, land-grant colleges and universities,

State and Federal agencies, State Departments of Agriculture, agribusinesses, and other users. Each respondent

is asked to identify and justify its specific data needs.

The report form for the 2007 Census of Agriculture for the U.S. Virgin Islands was prepared by NASS, in

cooperation with the Department Agriculture of the Virgin Islands. Based on discussions between NASS and the

Virgin Islands Department Agriculture (which coordinated review of the report form by data users in the Virgin

Islands), the content of the 2007 census report form remained basically unchanged from the previous census. The

only change to the questionnaire was the addition of a section on the operation of bee colonies. This section

collects information on the number of colonies owned at the end of the year, the number of colonies sold during

the year, and the pounds of honey collected during the year.

DATA PROCESSING

The processing of the 2007 Census of Agriculture for the U.S. Virgin Islands was done in St. Croix. Each report

form was reviewed and coded prior to data keying. Report forms not meeting the census farm definition were

voided. The remaining report forms were examined for clarity and completeness. Reporting errors in units of

measures, illegible entries, and misplaced entries were corrected.

After all the report forms had been reviewed and coded, the data were keyed and subjected to a thorough

computer edit. The edit performed comprehensive checks for consistency and reasonableness, corrected

erroneous or inconsistent data, supplied missing data based on similar farms, and assigned farm classification

codes necessary for tabulating the data. All substantial changes to the data generated by the computer edits were

reviewed and verified by analysts. Inconsistencies identified, but not corrected by the computer, were reviewed,

corrected, and keyed to a correction file. The corrected data were then tabulated by the computer and reviewed

by analysts.

A-2 APPENDIX A 2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE

Prior to publication, tabulated totals were reviewed by analysts to identify inconsistencies and potential

coverage problems. Comparisons were made with previous census data, as well as other available data. The

computer system provided the capability to review up-to-date tallies of all selected data items for various sets of

criteria which included, but were not limited to, geographic levels, farm types, and sales levels. Data were

examined for each set of criteria and any inconsistencies or potential problems were then researched by

examining individual data records contributing to the tabulated total. W hen necessary, data inconsistencies were

resolved by making corrections to individual data records.

DEFINITIONS AND EXPLANATION

The following definitions and explanations relate to items that are in the tables. For an exact wording of the

questions and instructions on the report form, see the report form in appendix B.

Crops. The report form contained individual inquiries for crops commonly grown and space to write in those less

frequently produced. The information requested in 2007 included acres of crops harvested and pounds harvested

for sale from January 1 through December 31, 2007.

The units of measure for reporting quantities of some crops have varied from one census to another. The aim has

been to permit reporting in the units of measure currently in use. The quantities harvested for each crop are

expressed in the units of measure given on the 2007 report form.

Field or forage crops. The land area from which individual crops were harvested for sale was obtained for field

and forage crops in acres and 10th of acres. W hen two or more crops were harvested from the same land, the

area was to be reported for each separate crop or planting. Total quantities of each crop harvested for sale were

also reported.

Vegetables. Land area for individual crops, and the quantity harvested for sale for each crop were collected.

Fruits, nuts, or nursery crops. The total number of acres planted in bearing and nonbearing fruit and nut trees was

collected. For individual fruit or nut crops, data on the number of bearing and nonbearing trees, and the quantity

harvested for sale, were reported. For nursery crops, the land area harvested, both square feet under cover and

acres in the open, was collected, along with the value of sales.

Equipment. The following types of equipment on the place at time of enumeration regardless of ownership, were

reported if they were operable:

Automobiles.

Motortrucks. This includes pickup trucks and truck- trailer combinations.

Tractors. This includes all wheel and tracklaying (crawler) tractors and garden tractors.

Expenses. The 2007 report form contained questions on seven types of farm expenses incurred between

January 1 and December 31, 2007, whether made by the farm operator, his/her landlord, or both. A farm operator

who rented part of his/her land to others reported only the expenses on the land he/she operated.

Hired farm labor. Expenses for hired farm labor include total cash payments made to family members and others

for farm labor. Payments to persons supplied by a contractor or a cooperative organization and paid directly by

them or by the person in charge are also included.

Machine hire and customwork. Expenses for machine hire and customwork relate to tractor hire, plowing, and

spraying. Any amount spent for the labor involved is considered to be part of the expense. The costs of hauling,

trucking, or of exchange work without pay are omitted.

Purchases of feed. Expenses for feed for livestock and poultry include total cash payments made for pasture

used, salt concentrates, mineral supplements, grain, hay, millfeeds, and any other items purchased for feeding

livestock and poultry on the place. Expenses made for the grinding and mixing of feed and the estimated cost of

items furnished to the operator by a landlord or others are also included. Payments made by a tenant to a landlord

for feed grown on the tenant's farm are excluded.


Purchases of fertilizers and manure. These expenses include the total amount spent for manure and commercial

fertilizers of all kinds for use on the farm.

Purchases of insecticides, fungicides, and herbicides. This item relates to total cash expenses for all chemicals,

sprays, dusts, etc., used to control weeds, pests, insects, or disease on crops and livestock.

Purchases of livestock and poultry. This item includes all cash expenses for livestock and poultry purchased for

the place. The cost of livestock and poultry bought and resold within 30 days is not included.

Seed cost. These expenses include all seed purchased for planting, as well as seedlings.

Farm operator. The term "operator" designates a person who operates a farm, either by doing the work

himself/herself or by directly supervising the work. The operator may be the owner, a member of the owner's

household, a hired manager, or a tenant, renter, or sharecropper. If the operator rents land to others or has land

worked on shares by others, he/she is considered the operator only if the land is retained for his/her own

operation. In the case of partnership, only one partner is counted as an operator. By definition, the number of

operators is the same as the number of farms.

Farms or operators reporting. Figures for "farms reporting" or "operators reporting" represent the number of

farms, or operators reporting the specified item. The difference between the total number of farms and the number

of farms reporting a particular item represents the number of farms not having that item.

Land in farms. The land in farms was determined from the answers to questions 1 through 4 in section 1 of the

report form (see appendix B). The amounts of land reported as owned and reported as rented from others were

added together, and the amount of land reported as rented to others was subtracted from that sum. The result

represents "land in farms."

Land owned. This includes all land that the operator or his/her spouse held under title, purchased contract,

homestead law, or as heir or trustee of an undivided estate at the time of enumeration.

Land rented from others. This includes not only land the operator rented or leased from others, but also land

worked on shares for others or land occupied rent free.

Land rented to others. This includes all land that the operator rented to others and all land assigned to others on

shares or rent free. For the most part, land rented to others represents agricultural land, but it also includes land

rented for residential or other purposes. The tenant is considered to be the operator of land leased, rented, or

worked on shares, even though his/her landlord may supervise the operations. The landlord is considered to be

the operator of only that portion of the land not assigned to tenants.

Land use. Land in farms at the time of enumeration is categorized according to the way it was used during the

12-month period between January 1 and December 31, 2007. The land is counted only once, even though it may

have had more than one use during the year.

Cropland harvested. This refers to all land from which any crop was harvested. It also includes land in field crops

that were grazed when mature or almost mature, and land in nonbearing fruit or nut trees and plants. Land from

which two or more crops were harvested and which was also used for other purposes, either before or after the

crops were harvested, was to be reported as cropland harvested without regard to the other uses.

Other cropland. This includes all cropland on the place that was used for pasture, and cropland on the place that

was not used for crops or pasture. It includes land on which there was total crop failure due to hurricane, flood,

drought, insects, fire, or other causes; cropland lying idle; and cropland planted with soil improvement grasses, or

other cover crops planted for improvement. It does not include land so hilly, rocky, or wet that the cost of

improving it for cultivation would be more than the operator could pay. Nor does it include land in roads, streams,

or swamps.

Pasture or grazing land. This refers to all land used for pasture or grazing, except cropland. It includes all

woodland where livestock pastured or grazed. It does not include cropland, even though cattle or other livestock

may have been grazed on it.

A-4 APPENDIX A 2007 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE

Woodland. This includes all land that is covered in woods or forests. It does not include woodland pasture.

Other land. This refers to all land not included in the other land use classifications, such as house and other

building lots, lanes, roads, ditches, and land area of ponds and wasteland.

Livestock and poultry. Inventory data for livestock and poultry relate to the number on hand at the time of

enumeration. All livestock and poultry were to be enumerated on the place where they were at the time of

enumeration regardless of who owned them. Livestock on unfenced land were to be reported as being on the

place identified as the headquarters of the person who had control over them.

Operator characteristics. Data were obtained to classify the operators according to the following five

characteristics:

Age of operator. Operators were classified by age into six groups. The average age was obtained by dividing the

sum of the ages of all operators reporting by the number reporting.

Main occupation. If the operator devoted 50 percent or more of his/her work time to agricultural activities, his/her

main occupation was considered to be agriculture, otherwise his/her occupation was considered to be

nonagricultural.

Residence of operator. Operators were classified by residence according to whether or not they lived on the farms

operated. W here all the land was rented from others or worked on shares for others, the dwelling was considered

to be on the farm operated provided the dwelling he/she occupied was included in the rental agreement. In such

cases, the dwelling was not necessarily on the land being operated. Similarly, an operator who did not live on the

land being cultivated or grazed, but who had some agricultural operations (other than a home garden) at his/her

dwelling, was considered to be living on the farm.

Work off farm. The extent to which operators rely on nonfarm sources for part of their income is indicated by the

number of days worked off the farm during the year. W ork off the farm was defined to include work on someone

else's farm for pay as well as all types of nonfarm jobs, businesses, and professions whether the work was done

on the farm premises or elsewhere. Exchange work was not included.

Years on present farm. Operators were classified by years on present farm into four groups. These data were

based on the question asking the year the operator began operation of the present farm or any part of it.

Value of products sold. Data for value of products sold were obtained for each group of crops or main type of

livestock sold from the farm. Data were obtained for sales of field and forage crops, vegetables, fruits and nuts,

nursery crops, poultry and poultry products, cattle and calves, hogs and pigs, fish and other aquaculture products,

and other livestock and livestock products. Value of sales was also collected for chicken eggs and milk.

FARM CLASSIFICATIONS

Farms by age of operator. Enumerators entered the operator's age, as of his/her last birthday, on the report

form. The computer edit classified the operator's age into one of the following age groups:

Under 35 years 45 to 54 years 65 years and over

35 to 44 years 55 to 64 years

Farms by size. Farms were classified by size on the basis of the total land area established in each farm.

According to the census definition, a farm is essentially an operating unit, not an ownership tract. All land

operated or managed by one person or partnership represents one farm. In the case of tenants, the land assigned

to each tenant is considered a separate farm, even though the landlord may consider the entire landholding to be

one unit rather than several separate units.


Farms by tenure of operator. In the 2007 census, farms were classified by tenure of operator on the basis of

data reported for land owned, rented from others, worked on shares for others, and managed for others. The

same classification has been used since 1964. During the processing operations, each report form was coded to

indicate whether the operator was a full owner, part owner, or tenant.

Full owners. Operate only land they own

Part owners. Operate land they own and also land they rent from others

Tenants. Operate only land they rent from others or operate on shares for others

Farms by value of agricultural products sold. The farms were classified on the basis of the total value of

agricultural products sold. The total was obtained by adding the reported values of all products sold from the farm.

The value of livestock, milk, poultry and eggs, fish, vegetables, fruits and nuts, all field crops, ornamental plants,

and all other crops was obtained from the operator at the time of enumeration. The computer edit classified the

value of agricultural products sold into one of the following groups:

$500 to $1,199 $2,500 to $4,999 $7,500 to $9,999

$1,200 to $2,499 $5,000 to $7,499 $10,000 or more

RELIABILITY OF DATA

All data compiled in this report originated from a complete enumeration and, therefore, are not subject to

sampling variability. However, the data are subject to nonsampling errors. Nonsampling errors can be attributed

to many sources: inability to identify all cases in the actual universe; inability or unwillingness on the part of

respondents to provide correct information; definition and classification difficulties; differences in the interpretation

of questions; errors in recording or coding the data obtained; and other errors of collection, response, coverage,

and estimation for missing or misreported data.

The accuracy of these tabulated data is determined by the joint effects of the various nonsampling errors. No

direct measures of these effects have been obtained; however, precautionary steps were taken in all phases of

data collection, processing, and tabulation of the data in an effort to minimize the effects of nonsampling errors.
