Statistical Methodology
Survey Procedures: Questionnaires are mailed about the 24th of each month to all operators on the list of approximately
1,400 public and private cold storage warehouses. In addition, data are obtained from special surveys and other sources.
All survey data represent stocks as of the end of the month.
Data are collected from warehouses artificially cooled to a temperature of 50 degrees Fahrenheit or lower, and whose food
products are normally stored for 30 days or more. All food items in these facilities are reported regardless of the number
of days stored at the time of the report. Also included are specialized storage facilities meeting the 30 day requirement,
such as fruit houses, dairy manufacturing plants, frozen fruit, fruit juice, vegetable processors, and poultry and meat
packing plants. Excluded are stocks in space maintained by wholesalers, jobbers, distributors, chain stores, locker plants
containing individual lockers, meat packer branch houses, and frozen food processors whose entire inventories are turned
over more than once a month.
All commodities reported on the cold storage report are regardless of ownership or origin. NASS does not differentiate
between commodities owned by manufacturer, producer, wholesaler, retailer, government owned, or domestically
produced vs. imported.
Estimating Procedures: Data for reporting firms are added to estimates for non-reporting firms to obtain regional and
National totals. Estimates for non-reporting firms are obtained by multiplying the previous month's figure by a percent
change from the previous month. The percent change is calculated for each item from totals of the current and previous
month summed from firms that reported both months.
Revision Policy: Data are revised the following month based on late reports or corrected data. Final figures are published
in the annual summary in February of the following year.
Reliability: Reports are received from 900 firms each month which represent about 70 percent of the total capacity. Firms
that are not on the list or firms who have never reported are not represented in the data. Plants storing butter or cheese are
required under Federal law as defined in Public Laws 106-532 and 107-171 to complete the Monthly Cold Storage report.
Monthly data can vary due to different firms reporting month to month. Survey data are also subject to non-sampling
errors such as omissions and mistakes in reporting and in processing the data. While these errors cannot be measured
directly, they are minimized by carefully reviewing all reported data for consistency and reasonableness.
