Overview
Cost and return estimates are reported for the United States and
major production regions for corn, soybeans, wheat, cotton, grain
sorghum, rice, peanuts, oats, barley, milk, hogs, and cow-calf. The
history of commodity cost and return estimates for the U.S.
and regions is divided into three categories:
Current, Recent, and
Historical estimates. Cost-of
Production Forecasts are also available for major U.S. field
crops.
On June 11, 2012, all 2011 annual milk cost and return
estimates were revised due to discovery of an error in the
purchased feed cost estimates. The error resulted from
inconsistencies in the feed price data used to index the 2010
purchased feed cost to reflect 2011 prices. Consistent dairy
feed prices were found and used to correct the error. The
incorrect data were originally posted on May 1, 2012. All files
containing annual estimates for milk under the Current and Recent
categories were corrected.

Estimates data product.
