Dairy Products (November 2020) 19 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
Statistical Methodology Data Collection Period: Dairy products estimates are based upon survey data collected after the close of each month.
Production data are provided by the firms producing dairy products.
Sampling frames and sample size: In 2019, there were 1,266 manufacturers that produced one or more dairy products. In
states with small numbers of plants, reports are received from all plants each month. In states with large numbers of
plants, survey procedures are designed to obtain monthly reports from all large plants and from a sample of small plants. In some states, the State Departments of Agriculture assist in collection of data, which eliminates duplicate report ing and
reduces respondent burden.
Modes of data collection: Data are collected by mail, personal and telephone interviews, facsimile, and via electronic
mail.
Terms and definitions: Firms complete the questionnaire using standard industry definitions and through the aid of
instructions and definitions provided on the questionnaire.
Reliability: Data for the Dairy Products report are collected by a Census of all known manufacturers of dairy products in
the United States. Firms producing large quantities of dairy products, along with a sample of smaller firms, are contacted
monthly to collect previous month production data. Those small firms not contacted monthly are contacted after the close of the year to obtain previous year production. Production of products at small firms not contacted monthly are estimated
during the monthly survey based upon check data, and state and national trends. Small firms are defined as those that do
not make up a significant portion of the published total. Plants storing nonfat dry milk and dry whey are required under Federal law as defined in Public Laws 106-532 and 107-171 to complete the Dairy Products report. Plants storing these
items are contacted monthly. Additionally, many state governments have mandated that dairy plants in their state
complete the Dairy Products report each month. Because the Dairy Products survey is a census, sampling error should not affect the final estimates, however non-sampling errors are possible.
Estimating Procedures: In the Regional Field Office (RFO), data reported by firms are reviewed for reasonableness and consistency by comparing with data reported in prior months and by data reported by other firms in the State. Each RFO
summarizes data at the Individual State level. State estimates are submitted to the Agricultural Statistics Board (ASB)
along with supporting comments where they are compared with surrounding states, their region, and national trends. During both RFO and ASB review, plants are sometimes contacted again for further verification of numbers reported.
After ASB review, RFO data are summarized into a National level summary.
Revision Policy: Monthly estimates are subject to revision the month following the preliminary estimates. Annual
estimates are published in late April in the Dairy Products Yearly Summary report which includes any revisions made to
previous 2 years of estimates. Revisions are generally due to plant data that are received too late to be included in the current report.
