Prices are a marketing year average for all methods of sale. For a crop sold for both fresh market and processing, the Marketing Year Average Price (MYA) is a weighted average of the fresh and processing price. Prices for fresh vegetables are the average prices producers receive at the point of first sale. This is commonly referred to as the average price as sold. Since the point of first sale is not the same for all producers, prices for the various methods of sale are weighted by the proportionate quantity sold. For example, if in a given State part of the vegetables are sold F.O.B. packed by growers, part are sold as bulk vegetables at the packinghouse door, and some are sold retail at roadside stands, the fresh vegetable average price as sold is a weighted average of the average price for each method of sale. F.O.B. packed prices are adjusted to an equivalent incoming packinghouse door price by subtracting all costs that accumulate between the incoming packinghouse door and the F.O.B. price. These costs include grading, packing, inspecting fees, selling, and other costs. Prices for vegetables sold for processing are equivalent returns for vegetables delivered to the processing plant door. Crop value estimates in this report cover the marketing season or crop year and should not be confused with cash receipts from these crops which are on a calendar year. State Value of Utilized Production and MYA Price Computations The following procedure is used to compute State Values of Utilized Production and MYA Prices: Fresh Market Value of Production: (Fresh Market MYA) Times (Fresh Market Production) Processing Value of Production: (Processing MYA) Times (Processing Production) "All" Value of Production: (Fresh Market Value of Production) Plus (Processing Value of Production) "All" MYA: ("All" Value of Production) Divided By ("All" Production) U.S. MYA Price Computations The following procedure is used to compute the U.S. MYA Prices: Fresh Market MYA: (Fresh Market Value of Production for All States) Divided By (Fresh Market Production for All States) Processing MYA: (Processing Value of Production For All States) Divided By (Processing Production For All States) "All" Sales MYA: (Total Value of Production for All States) Divided By (Total Production for All States) Weights and Measures The following table on weights, measures, and conversion factors covers the vegetables in this report. It does not cover all containers for any one product. The information has been assembled from State schedules of legal weights, various sources within the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and other Government agencies. For many vegetables, there is a considerable variation in weight per unit of volume due to differences in variety or size of commodity, condition and tightness of pack, degree to which the container is heaped, etc. Effort has been made to select the most representative and fairest average for each product. For those commodities which develop considerable shrinkage, the point of origin weight or weight at harvest has been used. The approximate or average weights as given in this table do not necessarily have official standing as a basis for packing or as grounds for settling disputes. Not all of them are recognized as legal weight. The table was prepared chiefly for use of workers in the U.S. Department of Agriculture who have need of conversion factors in statistical computations.
