Definition of Terms
Bearing acreage: An orchard or grove is considered to be of bearing age when
it can normally be expected to produce a commercially significant quantity of
the crop. Bearing age is a function of many factors including variety,
rootstock, year planted, etc.
Harvested not sold: Fruit of marketable quality that was picked but not sold
for various reasons.
Total production: The quantity of a crop actually harvested.
Unutilized production: The difference between total and utilized production,
which is marketable fruit harvested not sold or utilized.
Utilized production: The amount of a crop sold plus the quantity used at home
or held in storage.
Yield per acre: Unless otherwise stated, yield per acre is based on total
production.
Value: Crop value estimates in this report cover the marketing season or crop
year and should not be confused with cash receipts which are based on a
calendar year.
Statistical Methodology
Survey Procedures: Standardized probability grower surveys are conducted
semiannually to collect acreage, yield, production, and price data. All
millers are also surveyed semiannually to determine quantity handled. Data
from operators is collected by mail, internet, telephone, or personal
interview to ensure adequate coverage.
Estimating Procedures: Information obtained from the coffee grower and miller
surveys along with federal administrative data is used to establish estimates
of bearing acres, yield, total production, utilized production, price, and
value. These estimates are reviewed for errors, reasonableness, and
consistency with historical estimates.
Revision Policy: End-of-season estimates will be published in the Noncitrus
Fruits and Nuts - Summary released in May. Revisions the following year are
based on a thorough review of all available data.
Reliability: Survey indications are subject to sampling variability because
all operations growing coffee are not included in the sample. Survey results
are also subject to non-sampling errors such as omission, duplication,
imputation for missing data, and mistakes in reporting, recording, and
processing the data. These errors cannot be measured directly, but they are
minimized through rigid quality controls in the data collection process and a
careful review of all reported data for consistency and reasonableness.
