(2) Includes all production whether sold off or consumed on the national farm.

(3) Excludes seed retained on farm of origin or sold farm-to-farm.

(4) Includes sales to animal feed manufacturers, feed and seed retained on farm of origin or sold farm-to-farm.

(5) Average market returns net of marketing expenses, feed and seed retained on farm of origin or sold farm-to-farm are valued at opportunity cost, assumed to be the ex-farm feed price.

(6) Value of the physical increase in on-farm stocks over the course of the year.
