Many other divisions contributed to this preparation: Data Preparation performed the clerical processing; Administrative Services pro- vided the forms design and other administrative services; Publi- cations Services contributed in publication planning and design, editorial review, composition, and printing procurement; Com- puter Services provided the computer processing facilities; Field provided selected data collection activities; Economic Program- ming prepared the computer programs; and Economic Surveys assisted in preparation of data collection and processing proce- dures and computer programs. Members of the Census Advisory Committee on Agriculture Statistics and representatives of both public and private organizations made significant recommendations which helped establish data content. Members of various agencies of the U.S. Department of Agriculture provided valuable advice in the planning, publicizing, and processing phases of the census, and in helping farmers and ranchers complete the report forms. The press, farm magazines, radio and television stations, and farm organizations were most helpful in publicizing the census and encouraging cooperation of farm and ranch operators. Special tribute is paid to the millions of farm and ranch operators who furnished the information requested. Only through their cooperation was it possible to collect and publish the data in this report.

The first agriculture census was taken in 1840 as part of the sixth decennial census of population. From 1840 to 1950, an agriculture census was taken as part of the decennial census. A separate mid-decade census of agriculture was conducted in 1925, 1935, and 1945. From 1954 to 1974, a census of agriculture was taken for the years ending in 4 and 9. In 1976, Congress authorized the census of agri- culture to be taken for 1 978 and 1 982 to adjust the data reference year so that it coincided with the economic censuses covering manufacturing, mining, construction, retail trade, wholesale trade, service industries, and selected transportation activities. This adjustment in timing estab- lished the agriculture census on a 5-year cycle collecting data for years ending in 2 and 7. USES OF THE CENSUS The census of agriculture is the leading source of statistics about the Nation's agricultural production and the only source of consistent, comparable data at the county. State, and national levels. Census statistics are used by Congress in developing and changing farm programs and for determining the effects of these programs. Many national and State programs are designed or allocated on the basis of census data, such as funds for extension services, research, and soil conservation projects. Private industry uses census statistics to provide a more effective production and distribution system for the agricultural community. AUTHORITY AND AREA COVERED The census of agriculture is required by law under Title 13, United States Code, sections 142(a) and 191, which directs that a census be taken in 1979, 1983, and in every fifth year after 1983 covering the prior year. The 1987 census includes each State, Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Virgin Island of the United States. A census of agriculture will be conducted in American Samoa and the Common- wealth of the Northern Mariana Islands in conjunction with the 1990 Census of Population and Housing. FARM DEFINITION Since 1850, when minimum criteria defining a farm for census purposes first were established, the farm definition has been changed nine times. The current definition, first used for the 1974 census, is any place from which $1,000 or more of agricultural products were produced and sold or normally would have been sold during the census year. The farm definition used for the outlying areas varies according to area. The report for each area includes a discussion of the farm definition. COMPARABILITY OF DATA Data on acreages and inventories for 1987 and 1982 are generally comparable. Dollar figures shown for expenses and agricultural product sales are expressed in current dollars and have not been adjusted for inflation or defla- tion. In general, data for censuses since 1974 are not fully comparable with data for 1969 and earlier censuses due to changes in the farm definition. The 1978 U.S., region, and State data shown in the 1978 Census of Agriculture publications included data for farms on the mail list plus estimates from an area sample for farms not on the mail list. For comparability, the 1978 data in the 1987 publications include only farms on the mail list. TABULAR PRESENTATION State data— Tables 1 through 47 in chapter 1 show detailed State-level data usually accompanied by historical data for one or more past censuses. Tables 48 through 53 provide 1987 State data cross-tabulated by various farm classifications. County data — Chapter 2 presents selected data items by county. Tables 1 through 16 include general data for all counties. The counties are listed in alphabetical order in the column headings. Tables 17 through 36 include only 1987 CENSUS OF AGRICULTURE INTRODUCTION VII counties reporting the data item. Counties not having the item, or with a limited number of farms reporting the item, have data combined and presented as "all other counties." ADVANCE REPORTS Advance reports of 1 987 census data have been pub- lished separately for each county with 10 farms or more, each State, and the United States. This series provided, at the earliest possible date, final data on major data items together with comparable final data from the 1 982 census. Data items are standard across States except information on selected crops harvested, which vary by State accord- ing to their relative importance in the State. ELECTRONIC DATA DISSEMINATION The volume 1 data are available on computer tapes and compact disc. The advance report data are available on computer tapes, computer diskettes, and through elec- tronic data services such as the AG R I DATA network, the CENDATA package on Dialog, CompuServe on-line ser- vices, and the Census Bureau's State Data Center Bulletin Board. Computer tapes, diskettes, and compact discs are sold by the Customer Services Branch, Data User Services Division, Bureau of the Census, Washington, D.C. 20233 (telephone (301) 763-4100). SPECIAL TABULATIONS Custom designed tabulations can be developed to individual user specifications on a programming cost reim- bursable basis. Inquiries about special tabulations should be directed to the Chief, Agriculture Division, Bureau of the Census, Washington, D.C. 20233. CENSUS DISCLOSURE RULES In keeping with the provisions of Title 13, United States Code, no data are published that would disclose the operations of an individual farm. However, the number of farms in a given size category or other classification, such as size of farm, is not considered a release of confidential information and is provided even though other information is withheld. INVENTORIES, PRODUCTION, AND SALES DATA Inventories of livestock, poultry, and machinery and equipment are measured as of December 31 of the census year. Crop and livestock production, sales, and expense data are for the calendar year, except for a few crops (such as citrus) for which the production year overlaps the calendar year.
