Agricultural Statistics is published each year to meet the diverse
need for a reliable reference book on agricultural production,
supplies, consumption, facilities, costs, and returns. Its tables
of annual data cover a wide variety of facts in forms suited to
most common use. Statistics presented in many of the tables
represent actual counts of the items covered. Most of the
statistics relating to foreign trade and to Government programs,
such as numbers and amounts of loans made to farmers, and amounts
of loans made by the Commodity Credit Corporation, etc., are data
of this type. A large number of other tables, however, contain data
that are estimates made by the Department of Agriculture. The
estimates for crops, livestock, and poultry made by the U.S.
Department of Agriculture are prepared mainly to give timely
current State and national totals and averages. They are based on
data obtained by sample surveys of farmers and of people who do
business with farmers. The survey data are supplemented by
information from the Censuses of Agriculture taken every five years
and check data from various sources. Being estimates, they are
subject to revision as more data become available from commercial
or Government sources. Unless otherwise indicated, the totals for
the United States shown in the various tables on area, production,
numbers, price, value, supplies, and disposition are based on
official Department estimates. They exclude States for which no
official estimates are compiled. Extensive table data include
statistics of the following: *Statistics of Grain and Feed *Cotton,
Tobacco, Sugar Crops, and Honey *Oilseeds, Fats, and Oils
*Vegetables and Melons *Hay, Seeds, and Minor Field Crops *Cattle,
Hogs, and Sheep *Dairy and Poultry *Insurance, Credit &
Cooperatives *Agricultural Conservation & Forestry *Consumption
& Family Living *Fertilizers & Pesticides Miscellaneous

Published since 1950, this authoritative annual reference is based
upon a unique IMF database that tracks exchange and trade
arrangements for all 185 IMF member countries, along with Hong Kong
SAR, Aruba, and the Netherlands Antilles. ""The Annual Report on
Exchange Arrangements and Exchange Restrictions"" (AREAER) draws
together information available to the IMF from a number of sources,

There is a separate chapter for each of the 188 countries included,
and these are presented in a clear, easy-to-read tabular format. A
summary table allows for simple cross-country comparisons of key
features of their exchange and trade regimes. The report's
introduction summarizes recent global trends and developments. It
discusses such topical issues as exchange rate arrangements,
current or capital transactions, and prudential regulations. The
individual country chapters outline exchange measures in place, the
structure and setting of exchange rates, arrangements for payments
and receipts, procedures for resident and nonresident accounts,
mechanisms for import and export payments and receipts, controls on
capital transactions, and provisions specific to the financial
sector. A separate section in each chapter lists changes made
during 2007 and the first half of 2008. The report now provides
more detailed information on the operations of foreign exchange
markets and exchange rate mechanisms, and better describes the
regulatory framework for current and capital account transactions.
