Below are updated versions
of the maps and chart the department presented at the last meeting of the Task
Force. After the meeting, we asked the directors of equalization to review the
information and see if they could spot any problem areas. In addition, Dr.
Pflueger went back and reviewed his methodology and all of the data he used. He
also developed a method to address the irrigation problem we discussed at the
last meeting.
The updated maps and chart
reflects the combined effects of the changes we made. Most counties did not
change much. The largest change was in Butte county's cropland, because of the
irrigation adjustment. We did not have to adjust the cap rate of 6.6%. However
to maintain "revenue neutrality," the crop landlord share percentage has to
change from 36% to 35%. The landlord share percentage for no cropland does not
have to change.
I should point out that Dr.
Pflueger was instrumental in this process. He went above and beyond the call of
duty to fix the problems and come up with a solution to the irrigation issue.
Here is a brief summary of the issues we addressed:
-
We found a data input
error in Day County that changed one year's worth of revenue data.
-
We found a data error
impacting the sorghum crop numbers. NASS reports sorghum production in
bushels, but reports sorghum prices by the hundredweight. The original data
we used multiplied the bushels produced by the price per hundredweight.
-
We addressed an issue
with the corn acres used for silage.
-
We adjusted the
production in counties with irrigation to account for the increased
production from the irrigated acres. The original maps combined irrigated
and no irrigated production totals, the updated maps reflect only no
irrigated production.
-
We also corrected some
minor variations between the maps, and standardized the headings between the
chart and the maps.
To minimize confusion, the
new maps and chart all have a date, in the bottom right corner, of November 14,
2008. Let me know if you have any questions.
