Description of Industries and Summary of Findings INDUSTRY 2041, FLOUR AND OTHER GRAIN MILL PRODUCTS This industry is made up of establishments primarily engaged in milling flour or meal from grain except rice. Establishments primarily engaged in manufacturing prepared flour mixes or doughs from purchased ingredients are classified in industry 2045, and those milling rice are classified in industry 2044. Products of this industry also are collected in the Current Industrial Report (CIR) M-20A, Flour Milling Products. For information regarding the CIR, see Contacts for Data Users at the end of the Census of Manufactures section. The 1992 definition of this industry is the same as that used in the 1987 Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) system. The SIC number and title also are the same. In the 1992 Census of Manufactures, Industry 2041, Flour and Other Grain Mill Products, had employment of 13.1 thousand. The employment figure was 2 percent below the 13.3 thousand reported in 1987. Compared with 1991, employment increased 6 percent. The 1991 data are based on the Census Bureau's annual survey of manufactures (ASM), which is a sample survey conducted each year between censuses. The leading States in employment in 1992 were Texas, New York, Kansas, and Illinois. This represents a shift from 1987 when Tennessee, Illinois, Texas, and Kansas were the leading States. The total value of shipments for establishments classified in this industry was $6.3 billion. Establishments in virtually all industries ship secondary products as well as products primary to the industry in which they are classified and have some miscellaneous receipts, such as resales and contract receipts. Industry 2041 shipped $5.9 billion of flour and other grain mill products considered primary to the industry, $106.4 million of secondary products, and had $271.2 million of miscellaneous receipts, resales, and contract work. Thus, the ratio of primary products to the total of both secondary and primary products shipped by establishments in this industry was 98 percent (specialization ratio). In 1987, the specialization ratio also was 98 percent. Establishments in this industry also accounted for 96 percent of products considered primary to the industry no matter where they were actually produced (coverage ratio). In 1987, the coverage ratio was 97 percent. The products primary to industry 2041, no matter in what industry they were produced, appear in file MC92F6A and aggregate to $6.2 billion. For further explanation of specialization and coverage ratios, see file MC92F5B and the appendixes. The total cost of materials, services, and fuels and energy used by establishments classified in the flour and other grain mill products industry amounted to $4.7 billion.
