December Prices Received Index Up 0.8 Percent

The December Prices Received Index 2011 Base (Agricultural Production), at 89.5, increased 0.8 percent from November

but decreased 0.8 percent from December 2018. At 83.3, the Crop Production Index was up 0.8 percent from last month

but down 5.0 percent from the previous year. The Livestock Production Index, at 97.0, was unchanged from November,

but increased 5.0 percent from December last year. Producers received higher prices during December for broilers, cattle,

tomatoes, and strawberries but lower prices for market eggs, lettuce, oranges, and milk. In addition to prices, the indexes

are influenced by the volume change of commodities that producers market. In December, there was increased monthly

movement for oranges, milk, broilers, and cotton and decreased marketing of corn, grapes, soybeans, and calves.

December Prices Paid Index Up 0.1 Percent

The December Prices Paid Index for Commodities and Services, Interest, Taxes, and Farm Wage Rates (PPITW), at

110.5, is up 0.1 percent from November 2019 and 0.4 percent from December 2018. Higher prices for self-propelled

machinery, feeder pigs, complete feeds, and concentrates more than offset lower prices in December for nitrogen, feeder

cattle, LP gas, and other services.

Parity Price Overview

Parity prices, based on data from January 2017, and adjusted base price data from which parity prices are computed are

presented in the tables on the following pages. Parity prices are computed under the provisions of Title III. Subtitle A,

Section 301(a) of the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938 as amended by the Agricultural Acts of 1948, 1949, 1954, and

1956.

The parity prices shown in this report are based on the provisions of the amended Act. Briefly, the actual method of

computation is as follows:

a. The average of prices received by farmers for individual commodities for the 10 preceding years is calculated (for 2017,

the 10-average includes the years 2007-2016). An allowance for unredeemed loans and other supplemental payments

resulting from price support programs, such as the deficiency payments for grains and cotton, is included for those

commodities for which applicable.

b. This 10-year average is divided by the average of the Index of Prices Received by Farmers for the same 10 preceding

calendar years, adjusted to include an allowance for unredeemed loans and other supplemental price support operations, to

give an "adjusted base price".

c. Parity prices are computed by multiplying the "adjusted base prices" by the current Parity Index (the Index of Prices

Paid by Farmers, including Interest, Taxes, and Wage Rates, 1910-1914=100).

Parity prices are calculated in terms of prices received by farmers in the local markets in which they ordinarily sell. This

means that the parity prices apply to the average of all classes and grades of the commodity as sold by all farmers in the

United States, except as otherwise specified. Fruits and vegetables for fresh use and for processing are usually considered

separate commodities and separate parity prices are calculated. The Agricultural Marketing Agreement Act of 1937

provided for parity prices for certain commodities covered by a marketing agreement or order program. Under present

legislation, United States parity prices, with appropriate adjustments where needed, may be used for the purpose of this

Act.

1 Weighted index using monthly commodity market shares.


Reliability of Prices Received Estimates

Definition: Prices received represent sales from producers to first buyers. They include all grades and qualities. The

average commodity price from the survey multiplied by the total quantity marketed theoretically should give the total cash

receipts for the commodity.

Survey procedures: Primary sales data used to determine grain prices were obtained from probability samples of about

1,900 mills and elevators. These procedures ensure that virtually all grain moving into commercial channels has a chance

of being included in the survey. Generally, States surveyed account for 90 percent or more of total United States

production. Livestock prices are obtained from packers, stockyards, auctions, dealers, and market check data from

AMS-USDA, private marketing organizations, and state commodity groups and agencies. Inter-farm sales of grain and

livestock are not included since they represent very small percentages of the total sales. Grain marketed for seed is also

excluded. Fruit and vegetable prices are obtained from sample surveys and market check data from AMS-USDA, private

marketing organizations, state agencies, and universities.

Summary and estimation procedures: Survey quantities sold are expanded by strata to state levels and used to weight

average strata prices to a state average. State prices are then weighted to a United States price based on expanded sales.

Recommendations are prepared by the Regional Field Offices and reviewed by the Agricultural Statistics Board in

Washington, D.C. State recommendations are reviewed for reasonableness with survey data, other States, and recent

historic estimates.

Revisions: In general, revisions are made during annual commodity market year estimation time, following five-year

Census revisions, or when later information is received. Revisions are published in monthly issues of Agricultural Prices.

Reliability: United States price estimates based on probability surveys generally have a sampling error of less than one

percent for the major commodities such as corn, wheat, soybeans, cotton, and rice. Current methods of summarization for

non-probability commodities are not designed directly to calculate sampling errors. However, analytical measures

approximate the United States relative sampling errors at around five percent. Any non-sampling errors are attributed to

such things as the inability to obtain correct information, differences in interpreting questions or definitions, mistakes in

coding or processing the data, etc. Efforts are made at each step in the survey process to minimize these non-sampling

errors.

Program Changes: After the Council on Food, Agricultural and Resource Economics (C-FARE) 2009 program review which

included changes in farm production practices, plans were implemented to make necessary program improvements in the

agricultural price program. The index group structure for prices received was modified to maintain a more universal structure

and consistency with the required 1910-1914 series.

Modifications implemented January 2014 include the following: updated the current 1990-1992 base reference period to

2011; linked the 1910-1914 series to the updated base reference period, 2011; created index groups used universally by

researchers, data users, and policymakers; and re-classified agricultural commodities into the index groups. Also the

modifications expanded the commodity coverage for vegetable, melon, non-citrus, and tree nuts; updated monthly market

weights; and adjusted (normalized) current five year moving average cash receipts and farm input cost weights.

Modifications implemented January 2015 discontinued preliminary prices and replaced the annual average index with an

annual index.

The February 2016 program update changed the rounding of the 2011 base period indexes to nearest tenth of a percent.

The 1910-1914 base period indexes remain rounded to the nearest whole number.

See Price Program Links at end of this report for program change details.


December Prices Paid by Farmers

The December Prices Paid Index for Commodities and Services, Interest, Taxes, and Farm Wage Rates (PPITW), at

110.5, is up 0.1 percent from November 2019 and up 0.4 percent from December 2018.

Production: The December index, at 106.7, is up 0.2 percent from November but 0.6 percent lower than last year. Higher

prices for self-propelled machinery, feeder pigs, complete feeds, and concentrates more than offset lower prices for

nitrogen, feeder cattle, LP gas, and other services.

Feed: At 102.3, the December index increased 0.3 percent from November and 1.4 percent from last December. Since

November, higher prices for complete feeds, concentrates, and feed grains more than offset lower prices for hay and

forages and supplements.

Livestock and poultry: The December index, at 102.6, increased 1.0 percent from November but decreased 3.1 percent

from last year. Since November, higher prices for feeder pigs more than offset lower prices for feeder cattle. The

December feeder cattle price, at $143.00 per cwt, is unchanged from the November price. December feeder pigs averaged

$136.00 per cwt, up $23.00 per cwt from November.

Fertilizer: The index for December, at 62.4, is down 1.6 percent from November and 10.2 percent from December a year

ago. Since November, lower prices for nitrogen and potash and phosphate more than offset higher prices for mixed

fertilizer.

Chemicals: The December index, at 97.7, is unchanged from November but down 4.1 percent from last December.

Fuels: At 68.1, the December index is down 1.6 percent from November and 1.4 percent from December 2018. Compared

with November, prices are lower for LP gas, gasoline, and diesel.

Machinery: The index for December, at 128.1, increased 1.8 percent from November and 3.2 percent from last

December. Compared with last month, prices are higher for self-propelled machinery and other machinery.

Consumer Price Index: The December 2019 Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), as issued by the

Bureau of Labor Statistics, increased 2.3 percent over the last 12 months to an index level of 256.974 (1982-1984=100).

For the month, the index decreased 0.1 percent prior to seasonal adjustment.

Reliability of Prices Paid Estimates

Definition: Prices paid by farmers represent the average costs of inputs purchased by farmers and ranchers to produce

agricultural commodities. Conceptually, the average price when multiplied by quantity purchased should equal total

producer expenditures for the item.

Survey procedures: The prices paid data are obtained from establishments that sell goods and services to farmers and

ranchers. Annually, about 8,500 firms are randomly selected from lists by type of item sold with an average response rate

in the range of 75-80 percent. Firms are asked to report the price for the specified item "most commonly bought by

farmers" or that was the "volume seller". Approximately 135 items are surveyed each March to represent all production

input items purchased. The survey reference period for most items is the five business days centered at the 15th of the

month. Separate prices paid surveys are conducted for agricultural chemicals, fuels, feed, fertilizer, machinery, and seed.

Summary and estimation procedures: The annual March Prices Paid Survey is summarized as a non-probability survey.

Average prices reported are aggregated to the region and United States level using weights available from expenditure

data and other administrative sources. Price recommendations are prepared by the Regional Field Offices and

Headquarters for review by the Agricultural Statistics Board in Washington, D.C. Also, the change in price level for

individual items surveyed are combined to the regional and United States levels, and are published as prices paid indexes

referenced to a specific base period. Prices paid indexes for new autos and trucks, building materials, farm supplies, motor

supplies, and marketing containers are updated based on price changes measured in selected Bureau of Labor Statistics

(BLS) indexes.

Revisions: Any revisions are published in the monthly and in annual issues of Agricultural Prices. The basis for revision

must be supported by additional data that directly affect the level of the estimate. More revisions are likely for March

when separate prices paid surveys are conducted, in lieu of BLS indexes, by the USDA to measure price change.

Reliability: Current methods of summarization for the March data are not designed directly to calculate sampling errors.

However, analytical measures approximate the United States relative sampling errors for major items around 10 percent.

Any non-sampling errors are attributed to such things as the inability to obtain correct information, differences in

interpreting questions or definitions, mistakes in coding or processing the data, etc. Efforts are made at each step in the

survey process to minimize these non-sampling errors.

Program change: Effective January 2014, the National Agricultural Statistics Service modified the five-year moving

weights and updated the base reference period. In January 2015, publication of preliminary prices was suspended, and the

annual average index was replaced by an annual index.

As of January 2014, the 1990-1992 base reference period was updated to 2011. Five-year moving average weights are

adjusted (normalized) to minimize the effects of price changes. The 1910-1914=100 price indexes, required by statute for

computing parity prices, were linked forward based on the changes in the new 2011=100 indexes. The new indexes were

constructed by multiplying the ratios of the current prices to the base period prices by the moving average weights.

Modifications implemented January 2015 discontinued preliminary prices and replaced the annual average index with an

annual index.

The April 2015 program update discontinued publication of the annual March survey prices paid data.

The February 2016 program update changed the rounding of the 2011 base period indexes to nearest tenth of a percent.

The 1910-1914 base period indexes remain rounded to the nearest whole number.

See Price Program Links at end of this report for program change details.
