Agricultural Prices ISSN: 1937-4216 Released June 28, 2024, by the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), Agricultural Statistics Board, United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). May Prices Received Index Up 0.9 Percent The May Prices Received Index 2011 Base (Agricultural Production), at 123.6, increased 0.9 percent from April but decreased 2.7 percent from May 2023. At 103.2, the Crop Production Index was up 1.8 percent from last month but down 15 percent from the previous year. The Livestock Production Index, at 143.0, increased 0.3 percent from April and 7.5 percent from May last year. Producers received higher prices during May for milk, corn, oranges, and cattle but lower prices for market eggs, strawberries, onions, and broccoli. In addition to prices, the volume change of commodities marketed also influences the indexes. In May, there was increased monthly movement for cattle, hay, broilers, and lettuce and decreased marketing of soybeans, calves, hogs, and apples. May Prices Paid Index Down 0.2 Percent The May Prices Paid Index for Commodities and Services, Interest, Taxes, and Farm Wage Rates (PPITW), at 139.9, is down 0.2 percent from April 2024 and 0.2 percent from May 2023. Lower prices in May for feeder pigs, diesel, LP gas, and potash & phosphate more than offset higher prices for hay & forages, concentrates, feeder cattle, and mixed fertilizer.

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 2024, the 10-average includes the years 2014-2023). 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.

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: See Price Program Links at the end of this report for details on program changes to the Prices Program methodology. May Prices Paid by Farmers The May Prices Paid Index for Commodities and Services, Interest, Taxes, and Farm Wage Rates (PPITW), at 139.9, is down 0.2 percent from April 2024 and 0.2 percent from May 2023. Production: The May index, at 136.2, is down 0.3 percent from April and 1.4 percent from last year. Lower prices for feeder pigs, diesel, LP gas, and potash & phosphate more than offset higher prices for hay & forages, concentrates, feeder cattle, and mixed fertilizer. Feed: At 116.9, the May index increased 1.3 percent from April but decreased 16 percent from last May. Since April, prices are higher for hay & forages, concentrates, feed grains, supplements, and complete feeds. Livestock and poultry: The May index, at 180.6, decreased 1.7 percent from April but increased 23 percent from last year. Since April, lower prices for feeder pigs more than offset higher prices for feeder cattle. The May feeder pigs price, at $171.00 per cwt, is down $65.00 per cwt from April. The May feeder cattle price, at $265.00 per cwt, is up $1.00 per cwt from the April price. Fertilizer: The index for May, at 106.8, is down 0.3 percent from April and 4.1 percent from May a year ago. Since April, lower prices for potash & phosphate and nitrogen more than offset higher prices for mixed fertilizer. Chemicals: The May index, at 126.2, is up 0.2 percent from April but down 11 percent from last May. Fuels: At 90.6, the May index is down 5.0 percent from April and 0.3 percent from May 2023. Compared with April, prices are lower for diesel, LP gas, and gasoline. Machinery: The index for May, at 164.1, decreased 0.8 percent from April but increased 1.2 percent from last May. Compared with last month, prices are lower for self-propelled machinery and tractors but unchanged for other machinery. Consumer Price Index: The May 2024 Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), as issued by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, increased 3.3 percent over the last 12 months to an index level of 314.069 (1982- 1984=100). For the month, the index increased 0.2 percent prior to seasonal adjustment.

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 all items is the full preceding calendar year. 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.
