The surveys that NASS conducts collect information on virtually every facet of U.S. agricultural production.

This edition of the Abstract of Agricultural Statistics contains South African agricultural statistics of major importance that were available up to December 2017. The "Abstract" contains meaningful information on, inter alia, field crops, horticulture, livestock, important indicators and the contribution of agriculture.

Abstract

The agricultural survey in its current form covers all regions of the country and all 45 departments of Senegal. The agricultural survey is an annual statistical operation whose general objective is to estimate the level of the main agricultural output of family-type agricultural holdings. It also provides information on the physical characteristics of cultivated plots (geo-location, area) and major investments made in them (agricultural inputs, cultivation operations, soil management and restoration). The main indicators relate to yield levels, areas sown, production and means of production.

Following a modular approach, the 2022-2023 edition of the annual agricultural survey is characterized by the integration of the MEA module (Machines, Equipment and other Agricultural Assets). In addition, the basic module of the 50x2030 questionnaire allows the collection of data for the calculation of SDG 5.a.1.

Geographic coverage

The annual agricultural survey covers all 45 departments of Senegal. However, for reasons related to anonymization, the variable "Department" has been replaced by the variable "Agroecological Zone" which constitutes groupings in relation to the departments. The variable "Region" remains in the anonymized version of the data.

Sampling procedure

The AAS was built on a two-stage survey, with census districts (CDs) as primary units (PUs) and agricultural households as secondary units (SUs), as defined during the general census of population and l'Habitat, de l'Agriculture et de l'Élevage (RGPHAE) of 2013. In line with the broadening of the scope of the survey recommended by the AGRIS approach, from this campaign onwards the sample design incorporated a first-stage stratification, induced by the second-stage stratification, to better reflect the various agricultural activities and improve the efficiency of the estimates. The choice of a first-degree stratification induced by that of the second degree, although less efficient than an independent first-degree stratification, was guided by the constraint of non-existence of relevant variables of interest in the sampling frame of the RGPHAE to discriminate against the CDs. The stratification took into account the relative importance of the main agricultural activities (in terms of household size) identified during the 2013 RGPHAE, namely rainfed agriculture, livestock and horticulture.

Thus, four strata were formed as follows: - the "rainfed only" stratum which groups together all the households practicing only rainfed crops; - the "livestock only" stratum for households that practice animal husbandry only; - the "Horticulture and other crops" stratum, which includes households that mainly practice horticulture and secondarily other crops (forestry, fruit growing, etc.); - the "Rainfed-livestock" stratum made up of households that practice both rainfed agriculture and livestock breeding.

The size of the sample of agricultural households to be surveyed was calculated by department (area of study) by setting a relative error of 10% on the variable of interest. The distribution of the sample of each department in the strata was made using the Bankier method (1988) developed in the methodological guide to the main sampling frame practices (pp. 79-81) of the Global Strategy for Agricultural and Rural Statistics (GSARS).

At the national level, the total theoretical sample is equal to 7,450 households, spread over 1,460 physical CDs, with 5 households per CD. At the end of the enumeration operation carried out in the physical sample CDs, adjustments were made to take into account the actual updated size of the CDs, which led to a final size of 7,378 households, or 1,382 CDs.

Sampling deviation

Compared to the survey plan, adjustments were made based on the response rate at each phase.

Abstract

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.

Objectives: 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.

The statistical unit was a farm, defined as "any place from which USD 500 or more of agricultural products were produced and sold, or normally would had been sold, during the calendar year 2007". 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.

Kind of data

Census/enumeration data [cen]

Sampling procedure

(a) 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.

(b) Frame The census frame consisted of a list of farm operators compiled by the U.S. Virgin Islands DA. This list was compiled with the help of the USDA Farm Services Agency, located in St. Croix.

(c) Complete and/or sample enumeration methods The census was a complete enumeration of all farm operators registered in the list compiled by the United States of America in the CA 2007.

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. 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.

Sampling error estimates

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.

In 2001, the use of agricultural farm land peaked at 4.88 billion ha. Since then, agricultural land use has steadily declined to 4.74 billion ha in 2023. While land use has peaked and is in decline, the value of the total global agricultural production has continued to grow and nears four trillion international U.S. dollars. This is a measurement that adjusts for inflation and makes dollar values comparable.

Abstract

The availability of statistical data on agriculture is necessary to draw up policies and plans for the future development of this sector. Agriculture plays a vital role and represents a significant share of the Palestinian Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and also of the Palestinian labour force. There is a pressing need for specialized surveys to be conducted that will complement the first Agricultural Census in the Palestinian Territory that was conducted in 2010.

Sampling error estimates

Survey data may be affected by statistical errors due to the use of the sample. Therefore, certain differences may emerge from the true values anticipated through censuses. The variation of the most important indicators was calculated and dissemination levels of the data were particularized at governorate level in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, according to the sample design and the variance calculations for the different indicators.

The Census of Agriculture is disseminated by Statistics Canada's standard geographic units (boundaries). Since these census units do not reflect or correspond with biophysical landscape units (such as ecological regions, soil landscapes or drainage areas), Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada in collaboration with Statistics Canada's Agriculture Division, have developed a process for interpolating (reallocating or proportioning) Census of Agriculture information from census polygon-based units to biophysical polygon-based units. In the “Interpolated census of agriculture”, suppression confidentiality procedures were applied by Statistics Canada to the custom tabulations to prevent the possibility of associating statistical data with any specific identifiable agricultural operation or individual. Confidentiality flags are denoted where "-1" appears in data cell. This indicates information has been suppressed by Statistics Canada to protect confidentiality. Null values/cells simply indicate no data is reported.

The NASS Census of Agriculture is a comprehensive dataset produced by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS). Conducted every five years, the census gathers detailed data on America’s farming and ranching operations. It covers a wide range of topics, including land use and ownership, farm and operator characteristics, production practices, income, expenditures, and the types and quantities of crops and livestock produced. The primary purpose of the Census of Agriculture is to provide accurate, objective, and meaningful statistical information that supports agricultural policy-making, business decisions, research, and rural development. It serves as a key resource for government agencies, policymakers, researchers, agribusinesses, and farmers themselves, helping to track trends and inform decisions at national, state, and county levels. Key features of the dataset include its breadth and depth—data are collected from all U.S. farms and ranches, regardless of size—and its granularity, offering insights down to the county level. The census uniquely gives voice to all agricultural producers, ensuring even small and specialized operations are represented, making it an essential tool for understanding the evolving landscape of American agriculture.
