Most of the tables in this issue contain data for the 10 year period 1952-61. Alabama Agricultural Statistics brings together the more -important series of current and historical data concerning agriculture in the State. An effort has been made to publish information most often requested by farmers, the general public, and government agencies. Most of the statistics in this bulletin are estimates based on sample data and are not actual enumerations. The latest available information has been compiled in this issue. This includes revisions based on the 1959 Agricultural Census. The latter is the benchmark from which an- nual estimates are made. ALABAMA AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS To provide statistical information that is both accurate and timely is the purpose of the Crop Reporting Service. At various times during the year the Crop Reporting Service receives many reports from Alabama farmers, processors, and other businessmen giving information about crops, livestock, prices of commodities that farmers buy and sell, and other related subjects. These reporters serve on a voluntary basis and are the backbone of our crop reporting system. Although crop reporters supply the basic data for these estimates, the Census and other Federal and State agencies are important sources of information. In addition field observations and personal interviews assist the statistician in interpret- ing data. Improved sampling techniques are being used in preparing these estimates. Beginning in 1961, expansions from small area samples enumerated throughout the State have provided the statistician with indications of crop acreages and livestock numbers to supplement the work still being done through the use of mailed questionnaires. The Alabama Crop and Livestock Reporting Service publishes official estimates of crop production, prices, and other agricultural in- formation. Anyone desiring these reports may receive them without charge by writing George B. Strong, Agricultural Statistician, Post Office Box 1071, Montgomery, Alabama. The following is a list of the more important reports and the approximate date of their release: Report Released Weekly Crop-Weather Summary ------------Each Tuesday Broiler Chick Report --------------- Each Wednesday Mid-Month Farm Commodity Prices 1st of each month Cotton Report ---------- 8th of the month-May, July through December General Crop Report............------------------.....12th of month--March through November Livestock Slaughter Report 1st of month Commercial Hatchery Report ................... 20th of month Pig Crop Report ----------------------------------........June 24 and December 24 Annual Crop Summary-------- ------- December 20 Annual Livestock Inventory---- February 18 Prospective Plantings -...............---------------- March 20 Special reports on pasture and cover crop seeds, honey and bees, dairy pro- ducts, farm income, commercial vege- tables, fertilizer sales, and county esti- Various times throughout the year mates for cotton, corn, wheat, peanuts, soybeans, cattle, milk cows, hogs and chickens JY CAN KC 14 Gr-.
