Reliability of June 1, 2006 Grain Stocks Estimates
                              
Survey Procedures:  The grain stocks estimates in this report are
based on surveys conducted during the first 2 weeks of June. 
Separate surveys are conducted to obtain the on-farm and off-farm
estimates.  The on-farm stocks survey is a probability survey that
includes over 88,000 operators selected from a list of producers
that ensures all operations in the U.S. have a chance to be
selected.  These producers are asked to provide the total
quantities of grain stored on their operations as of June 1, 2006. 
This includes all whole grains and oilseeds stored whether for
feed, seed, or sale as well as any stored under a government
program.

The off-farm stocks survey is an enumeration of all known
commercial grain storage facilities.  This includes approximately
9,500 facilities with about 8.53 billion bushels of storage
capacity.  An effort is made to obtain a report from all
facilities.  Reports of stock holdings are normally received from
operations covering about 90 percent of the capacity.  Estimates
are made for missing facilities to make the survey complete.

Estimation Procedures:  On-farm and off-farm survey data are
reviewed at the State and national levels for reasonableness,
consistency with historical estimates, and current crop size. 
After estimates are made for on-farm and off-farm stocks, the
totals of these two are combined and evaluated using the balance
sheet approach.  This method utilizes other sources of data to
check the reasonableness of the stocks estimates.  Estimates of
production, imports, exports, crushings, millings, and all other
recorded uses of grains and oilseeds are reviewed to make sure
beginning stocks, production, utilization, and ending stocks are
within reasonable balance and present the best possible estimate of
stocks.

Revision Policy:  On-farm and off-farm stocks are subject to
revision the quarter following initial publication and again in the
following December 1 Grain Stocks report published in January each
year.  Revisions can be made when late reports are received, errors
are detected in reporting and calculations, and production
estimates are revised.  Estimates will also be reviewed following
the 5-year Census of Agriculture.  No revisions to these years will
be made after that date.

Reliability:  Reliability of the on-farm and off-farm stocks must
be treated separately because the survey designs for the two
surveys are very different.  The on-farm stocks estimates are
subject to sampling variability because all operations holding
on-farm stocks are not included in the sample.  This variability,
as measured by the relative standard error at the U.S. level, is
approximately 2.1 percent for corn, 2.8 percent for soybeans, and
