The price information will be used to estimate prices received by producers which are equivalent to delivered slaughterhouse or delivered shippers’ dock for interisland sales.

NOTE: The Department of Agriculture collects and publishes information on average prices received by farmers. The price at which actual transfer of ownership occurs varies among islands and within each island depending on the services performed. The purpose of this report is to provide Hawaii’s livestock industry with as meaningful a price as possible. The information you supply will be used to estimate prices which are equivalent to delivered slaughterhouse for sales on the island of origin and delivered shippers’ dock for interisland sales.
