    ACKNOWLEDGMENTS-Many persons participated in the various actiVities of the 1979 Census of Horticultural Specialties. Primary direction was by Shirley Kallek, Associate Director for Economic Fields, and Richard B. Quanrud, Assistant Director for Economic and Agri-culture Censuses (to June 1981), and Michael G. Farrell, his successor.

    This report was prepared in the Agriculture Division under the general direction of Orvin L. Wilhite, Chief (to January 1980), and Arnold L. Bollenbacher, his successor. Kenneth R. Norell, Assistant Division Chief for Special Surveys, supervised report preparation, table design, and publication of the census.

    Edward J. James (to January 1981) was responsible for the initial planning, preparation of computer specifications, and clerical procedures. John C. Womack, Chief for Outlying Areas Statistics Branch, and Demosthenes Birbilis directed the various processing operations and the cornpilatlon of this report. Lisa Ciolek and Jackie M. Stonter with the assistance of Esther C. Darnell made significant contributions in processing report forms, and in preparing publication tables, texts, and computer layouts. William A. Harlan directed the resolution of problems with individual census reports.

    Ralph A. Graham, Allen J. Blackburn, Patrick McDonald, and Kent C. Hoover, under the direction of John E. Adkins, Assistant Division Chief for Operations, collaborated in developing the electronic computer programs. Linda J. Hutton was responsible for the computer tabulations program. Cecelia H. Peets, Regina E. Lindsey, and Karin G. Beach pro-Vided editorial services.

    Most clerical and all data-keying operations, labeling, sorting, and mailing of the census forms were performed in the Data Preparation DiviSion, Jeffersonville, Ind., under the supervision of Don L. Adams, Chief, assisted by Patricia M. Clark, Rebecca Lamon, Darrell L. Farrabee, a nd Keith Lacey.

    Forms design was performed under the general direction of Henry J. Husmann, Chief, Administrative Services Division (to August 1980), assisted by Albert W. Cosner, Cathern S. Kline, and Irene A. Gray.

    Within the Publications Services Division many individuals made Significant contributions in the areas of publication planning and design, editorial review, composition, and printing procurement.

    The U.S. Department of Agriculture cooperated with the Bureau of the Census at all levels. In particular, the State office personnel of the Statistical Reporting Service (SRS) coordinated their annual Floriculture Survey With the 1979 Census of Horticulture. Considerable duplication

    of effort was avoided through this coordination. Douglas Fenley, James Garrett, Dan Buckner, and Tom Feurer coordinated the SRS portion and provided essential respondent contact.

    Various members of the Census Advisory Committee on Agriculture Statistics and representatives of public and private firms generously gave their time and effort In establishing data requirements and priOrities for collect ion and publication of the information. Many trade association publications carried articles calling attention to the need for respondents to report fully and promptly.

    Special consideration IS given to other individuals who were helpful In publicizing the census and encouraging cooperation. F. Raymond Brush, Secretary and Director of Technical Services for American Association of Nurserymen; Jim Wanko, Executive Vice President for Society of American Florists; Gordon Smith, Hill and Knowlton, Inc., representing F.TD. World Florists, and M. Truman Fossum, consultant to marketing and flOrist organizations, provided valuable assistance in planning and publlcizi ng the census.

    Most of all special tribute must be paid to the thousands of growers and other horticultural associated individuals who furnished the infor-mation requested In the census. Only through their cooperation was it possible to gather and publish the data in this report.

    HISTORY

    Page

    V V V V V V

    IV IV IV IV IV

    This is the sixth census of horticultural specialty production.

    These censuses have been taken in conjunction with the

    agriculture censuses of 1890, 1930, 1950, 1959, 1969, and

    1978. The 1979 Census of Horticultural Specialties, as in

    previous censuses, includes producers of cut flowers, flowering and foliage plants, bedding plants, cultivated florist greens,

    nursery products, bulbs, flower seeds, vegetables grown under

    glass or other protection, cultivated mushrooms, vegetable seeds, and sod. Data for these specialty items were collected for

    each State. Establishments producing horticultural specialties also have

    been included in the regular census of agriculture; however, the number and detail of questions included in that census were severely limited.

    AUTHORITY

    The 1979 Census of Horticultural Specia Ities was taken in accordance with the provisions of title 13, United States Code. Section 142 provides for the censusof agriculture and section 193

    provides for the collection of supplementary statistics related to the main topic.

    HORTICULTURAL ESTABLISHMENT DEFINITION

    This census defines a horticultural establishment as an

    operation growing and selling $2,000 or more of horticultural products in the census year. This definition also has been used

    in the special censuses of 1959 and 1969. The previous

    definition used in 1950 included operations producing and

    selling at least $1,000 of horticultural products. The 1930 census included all operations with any sales.

    PERIOD COVERED

    The 1979 Census of Horticultural Specialties covers opera-tions of the calendar year 1979 except for the small portion of

    establishments that maintain their records on a fiscal year basis.

    These establishments were permitted to report their fiscal year

    that included at least half of the 1979 calendar year. Data on

    employment, land, structures, and equipment were to be

    reported for the period specified on the report form.

    METHOD OF ENUMERATION

    The 1979 Census of Horticultural Specialties was conducted

    primarily by mail for maximum economy, supplemented by

    telephone interviews. It was taken in conjunction with the

    annual Floriculture Survey conducted by the Statistical Reporting Service (SRS) of the U.S. Department of Agriculture

    and in California by the State government to minimize respondent's burden. Appendix A provides a more detailed

    description of how the census was taken.

    COMPARABILITY OF DATA

    Detailed data on horticultural specialty production have been obtained in five previous censuses in conjunction with the censuses of agriculture. Only limited comparative data are given

    in this volume, but historical data may be obtained for the

    census year in question by referring to one of the following census reports:

    1890-Eleventh Census of the United States 1890.

    1930-Fifteenth Census of the United States 1930; Horti-

    culture for the United States and for States, 1929 and 1930.

    1950-1950 Census of Agriculture; Volume V, Special

    Reports; Part 1, Horticultural Specialties.

    1959-1959 Census of Agriculture; Volume V, Special

    Reports; Part 1, Horticultural Specialties.

    1969-1969 Census of Agriculture; Volume V, Special Reports; Part 10, Horticultural Specialties.

    Differences in the amount of data collected, in methodology,

    and format will affect comparability of data. In a lO-year

    period, emphasis usually changes as it did in this census period.

    Pot and basket sizes are included for the first time for flowering and foliage plants. Also, the 1979 census included with land and

    structures information concerning the value of machinery and

    equipment. Other new items are detail data on energy and costs of fertilizer and agricultural chemicals.

    The data from the 1978 Census of Agriculture are not directly comparable. The 1978 data include all establishments

    that grew and sold any horticultural products. However, this census covers those operations with at least $2,000 in gross sales

    of horticultural specialty products. Some difference in the

    reporting of county location of the horticultural operation will

    appear between 1978 data and 1979 data. In all tables, the sum

  • VI INTRODUCTION -Continued

    of the parts will not necessarily equal the total, whenever

    rounded data are used. Also, this is the case between tables.

    TABULAR PRESENTATION

    U.S. data -Tables 1 through 16 show detailed data of the United

    States. Tables 1 through 8 show data by various kinds of

    business and value of sales, and tables 9 through 16 show each specialty item.

    State data -Tables 17 through 24 show selected data items on a

    State level, such as sales, production expenses, land, and

    machinery and equipment. Detailed data are shown in tables 25

    through 39 and table 40 includes selected items for Hawaii.

    County data-Tables 41 through 56 are presented on a county

    level. Table 41 shows total sales and labor, and tables 42

    through 56 show statistics on each specialty commodity group.

    CENSUS DISCLOSURE RULES

    In keeping with the provisions of title 13, United States

    Code, data that would disclose the operations of an individual

    horticultural establishment are not published. However, the

    number of establishments in a given size category or other

    classification is not considered a disclosure. Appendix A

    presents additional information on disclosure rules.

    Highlights of the Nation's Horticultural Specialties: 1979 and 1970 (Significant changes were made to data collection procedures to improve coverage of 1979 census, including a more complete mail list and improvements

    in methods of tabulation. Thus, 1970 data are not directly comparable to 1979 data)
