Vegetables 2013 Summary (March 2014) 63 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
2013 Processing Production of 8 Selected Vegetables Down 6 Percent from 2012
Processing production of eight selected vegetables estimated in 2013 totaled 17.2 million tons, down 6 percent from last
year. Area harvested is estimated at 1.05 million acres, down 7 percent from a year ago. Processing crop value is
estimated at 1.93 billion dollars, 3 percent below 2012. The three largest crops, in terms of production, are tomatoes,
sweet corn, and snap beans, which combine to account for 92 percent of the total. The top three crops in terms of value are
tomatoes, sweet corn, and snap beans. These three processing vegetables account for 80 percent of the total value when
combined.
For the eight processed vegetables estimated in 2013, California leads the nation with 27 percent of the harvested acreage,
71 percent of the production, and 50 percent of the value.

Definitions
Hundredweight (cwt.) is the unit used for fresh market yield and production and is equal to one hundred pounds.
Prices are a marketing year average for all methods of sale. For a crop sold for both fresh market and processing, the
Marketing Year Average Price (MYA) is a weighted average of the fresh and processing price.
Prices for fresh vegetables are the average prices producers receive at the point of first sale. This is commonly referred to
as the average price as sold. Since the point of first sale is not the same for all producers, prices for the various methods
of sale are weighted by the proportionate quantity sold. For example, if in a given State part of the vegetables are sold free
on board (F.O.B.) packed by growers, part are sold as bulk vegetables at the packinghouse door, and some are sold retail
at roadside stands, the fresh vegetable average price as sold is a weighted average of the average price for each method
of sale.
F.O.B. packed prices are adjusted to an equivalent incoming packinghouse door price by subtracting all costs that
accumulate between the incoming packinghouse door and the F.O.B. price. These costs include grading, packing,
inspecting fees, selling, and other costs.
Prices for vegetables sold for processing are equivalent returns for vegetables delivered to the processing plant door.
Crop value estimates in this report cover the marketing season or crop year and should not be confused with cash receipts
from these crops which are on a calendar year.
State Value of Utilized Production and MYA Price Computations
The following procedure is used to compute State Values of Utilized Production and MYA Prices:
Fresh Market Value of Production: (Fresh Market MYA) Times (Fresh Market Production)
Processing Value of Production: (Processing MYA) Times (Processing Production)
"All" Value of Production: (Fresh Market Value of Production) Plus (Processing Value of Production)
"All" MYA: ("All" Value of Production) Divided By ("All" Production)
United States MYA Price Computations
The following procedure is used to compute the U.S. MYA Prices:
Fresh Market MYA: (Fresh Market Value of Production for All States) Divided By (Fresh Market Production for All States)
Processing MYA: (Processing Value of Production For All States) Divided By (Processing Production For All States)
"All" Sales MYA: (Total Value of Production for All States) Divided By (Total Production for All States)
Vegetables 2013 Summary (March 2014) 79 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
Weights and Measures The following table on weights, measures, and conversion factors covers the vegetables in this report. It does not cover all
containers for any one product.
The information has been assembled from State schedules of legal weights, various sources within the United States
Department of Agriculture, and other Government agencies. For many vegetables, there is a considerable variation in
weight per unit of volume due to differences in variety or size of commodity, condition and tightness of pack, degree to
which the container is heaped, etc. Effort has been made to select the most representative and fairest average for each
product. For those commodities which develop considerable shrinkage, the point of origin weight or weight at harvest has
been used.
The approximate or average weights as given in this table do not necessarily have official standing as a basis for packing
or as grounds for settling disputes. Not all of them are recognized as legal weight. The table was prepared chiefly for use
of workers in the United States Department of Agriculture who have need of conversion factors in statistical

Statistical Methodology
Survey Procedures: Starting with the 2012 Crop year, acreage, production, marketing year price and value information
included in this report is collected on an annual basis for fresh market and processing vegetables. For fresh market
vegetables, grower surveys were conducted. A sample of producers growing selected fresh market crops are surveyed in
major producing States in the program. Data are collected by mail out questionnaires and personal interviews. Telephone
follow-up of mail survey non-respondents is used to ensure adequate coverage. Data accuracy and reducing respondent
burden are taken into account in conducting the surveys. Due to the variable nature of the vegetable industry, mail lists are
updated to ensure complete coverage.
Estimation Procedures: Information obtained from the vegetables grower surveys along with federal administrative data
is used to establish estimates of planted and harvested acres, yield, production, price, and value. These estimates are
reviewed for errors, reasonableness, and consistency with historical estimates.
Revision Policy: End-of-season vegetable estimates are subject to revision the following year based on a thorough review
of all available data and are published in the Vegetables Annual Summary.
Reliability: Survey indications are subject to sampling variability because all operations growing vegetables 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 are minimized through rigid quality controls in the data collection process and a careful review of all reported data for
consistency and reasonableness.
