• Output is limited to a specific analytic purpose.
• Output is customized to a specific request.
• Many Special Tabulations are based on a statistical model or a specified set of assumptions. Tables using these assumptions are derived from the Census of Agriculture or NASS surveys and, when published, carry the appropriate disclaimers.
• Some output is longitudinal and used to track census/survey to census/survey changes and to make comparisons over time. These data sets are not complete, being limited to reports meeting specific criteria.
  

Special tabulations can only be made from information in the original Census of Agriculture questionnaire, although less common crops are not specifically listed on this version of the questionnaire.
