U. S. Geographic Regions
Dairy Products
If a region is unable to be published for confidentiality reasons, it will be
combined with other regions when possible. For example, if North Atlantic
can not be published, it will be combined with South Atlantic to publish
Atlantic. The West North Central and East North Central will be combined, if
necessary, to form North Central. In the event that neither could be
published, they may be combined with South Central to publish Central. Some
tables will have only limited regions shown, therefore the regions may not
add to the United States total.

Procedures and Reliability: Estimates included in this report are based on
data provided each month by manufacturers of these products. In 32 States,
the State Departments of Agriculture assist in collection of data, which
eliminates duplicate reporting and reduces respondent burden. Data are
collected by mail, personal and telephone interviews following the close of
each month. There were 1,109 manufacturers that made one or more products in
2007. Each month, reports are generally received from all dairy plants in
States with small numbers of plants. In States with large numbers of plants,
survey procedures are designed to obtain monthly reports from all large
plants and from a sample of small plants. Monthly estimates are based upon
returns from about 70 percent of the plants which account for 70 to 90
percent of the total production of major dairy products.
Revision Policy: Monthly estimates are subject to revision the month
following the preliminary estimates. Annual estimates are published in the
"Dairy Products" report published each April which includes any revisions
made to current and previous year. An attempt is made to get information
from all plants for preparing these estimates
