Crop Progress
ISSN: 1948-3007
Released September 6, 2016, by the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), Agricultural Statistics Board, United States Department
of Agriculture (USDA).
NASS Survey Update!
In September, NASS will survey U.S. small grains growers for final production. We will also ask hog
producers about their summer pig crop, current inventory, and farrowing intentions for the next six
months. The responses will provide the foundation for the 2016 production estimates. Farmers contacted
can respond by mail, phone, or online. Your information matters! NASS will release the results on
September 30 at http://www.nass.usda.gov.

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 4,000 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 2015 season, over 90 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.
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.
