United States Department of Agriculture Crop Production 1997 Summary January 1998 National Agricultural Statistics Service Cr Pr 2-1(98) Corn for grain production was estimated at 9.37 billion bushels, up less than 1 percent from the 1996 crop and virtually unchanged from the November 1 forecast. The 1997 production level ranks third behind 1994 and 1992, respectively. The U.S. yield of 127.0 bushels per acre was virtually the same as the 127.1 bushel yield of a year earlier. Sorghum grain production in 1997 was estimated at 653 million bushels, down 19 percent from 1996. Area harvested for grain was estimated at 9.3 million acres, down 23 percent from 1996. Grain yields, at 69.5 bushels per acre, were 2.0 bushels above the 1996 average yield. All Hay production for 1997 was estimated at 152 million tons, down sightly from the October 1 forecast and 2 percent above the revised 1996 total. Acreage harvested, at 60.8 million acres, is essentially unchanged from the October forecast and less than 1 percent below 1996. The average yield, at 2.50 tons per acre, was unchanged from October 1 and 2 percent above the previous year. Rice production totaled 179 million cwt during 1997, 4 percent above the 1996 total. Average yield of all U.S. rice was 5,896 pounds per acre, 225 pounds below 1996's record yield but the third largest yield on record. Acreage for harvest increased from a year ago in all the major rice states except Texas, where acreage dropped 13 percent from a year ago. Soybeans: Soybean Production in 1997 totaled 2.73 billion bushels, down slightly from the November 1 forecast but up 14 percent from 1996. The 1997 production is the highest on record. The last record production was set in 1994 at 2.52 billion bushels. The average yield per acre in 1997 is estimated at 39.0 bushels, 0.2 bushels below the November 1 forecast and 1.4 bushels above the 1996 yield. This is the second highest yield on record behind the 1994 yield of 41.4 bushels per acre. All cotton production is forecast at 19.0 million bales, up 1 percent from December, and 34,900 bales above 1996. This is the second largest crop on record. Yield is expected to average 686 pounds per acre, down 21 pounds from last year. Georgia's production was lowered 80,000 bales from last month, as heavy rainfall during the harvest season decreased yields from earlier expectations. Production was increased 90,000 bales in Arkansas and 80,000 bales in North Carolina, as the adverse weather early in the season didn't reduce yields as much as growers anticipated. Record yields are expected in Arkansas, Kansas, Mississippi, and Oklahoma. This report was approved on January 13, 1998.

Corn planting progressed rapidly and finished well ahead of the normal pace despite below-normal temperatures. As farmers finished planting corn, they immediately turned to planting soybeans, which also progressed ahead of normal. However, 10 consecutive weeks of below-normal temperatures slowed crop emergence and development, requiring some replanting. Rain and snow in early April compounded flooding problems from record snowfall in the Red River Valley of Minnesota and North Dakota, and the James River Valley in South Dakota. Saturated soils delayed the start of spring planting and kept farmers out of fields until mid-May. Dry soils in the rest of the northern Plains stressed both winter wheat and newly emerged spring planted grains. North Dakota soils were the driest in early June since 1988. Winter wheat broke dormancy in mostly good to excellent condition. Reminiscent of 1996, below-freezing temperatures during April concerned growers in the southern Plains. Cool soils and wet weather prevented farmers in the lower Mississippi, Tennessee, and Ohio Valleys from planting spring crops. Farmers in the Southeast were also kept out of fields by cool, wet weather. Unlike the rest of the United States, States in the Southwest recorded above-normal temperatures during much of the spring. After the extended spring-like weather in the East, July brought sunshine and warmth, promoting rapid crop growth throughout the Corn Belt. After a slow start in June, winter wheat harvest progressed rapidly, and growers in the southern Plains and Southeast finished harvest slightly ahead of average. Winter wheat harvest in the Northwest started late because of a wet spring, but once combines entered fields, harvest progressed rapidly. Timely showers along the Northern Tier States provided enough moisture for small grain development to catch up after late planting. Cotton fields developed ahead of normal in the western cotton-producing States, but Southeastern fields progressed behind the normal pace due to continued wet weather. As August began, crop conditions declined in the Corn Belt, with scattered showers providing limited or no relief from persistent dryness in an area extending from Missouri northeastward to New York. However, below-normal temperatures in the area moderated the stress somewhat and reduced evaporation rates. Mid-month rainfall provided some relief from drought conditions in the mid-Atlantic States, but came too late to save some crops. Soils in the Southeast and Texas turned dry during the month. Rice harvest progressed well ahead of the average, but behind normal elsewhere. Very warm, dry weather allowed spring grain harvest to finish ahead of the average pace in the northern Plains. Widespread rains brought moisture and above-normal temperatures provided much-needed heat in the western Corn Belt and Plains in late August. This provided favorable weather for crop maturation in September. Corn and soybean progress in the eastern Corn Belt slowed to the average pace with continued cool, wet weather. Planting of the 1998 winter wheat crop started slowly, but gained momentum in early October as very warm, dry weather allowed farmers into fields. Very warm, dry weather in the eastern United States provided excellent harvest conditions the first half of October. In the Corn Belt, soybean growers harvested their crop at a near-record pace. As soybean harvest finished, farmers immediatley turned to harvesting corn. Sorghum harvest also progressed ahead of the normal pace. However, an early-season snowstorm halted fieldwork from Colorado through the western Corn Belt. Harvest of fall crops proceeded under favorable conditions in the northern Plains. Unseasonably hot weather in the Southwest helped cotton fields dry out after Tropical Storm Nora. Much-needed heat spurred the Texas cotton crop progress early in October, but heavy rains and flooding caused lint loss and damage to quality. Cotton harvest was delayed in the Southeast by 7 weeks of wet weather. Peanut harvest was virtually complete by mid-November despite continued rainfall across the Southeast. Cool, wet weather and grain storage shortages hampered harvest efforts during November. Both corn and soybean harvests slowed as precipitation in the Great Lakes region kept grain moisture levels high and continued wet weather in the Southeast kept farmers out of soybean fields. Wet soils prevented planting of some winter wheat fields in the central Plains. However, most fields were planted by mid-November. In December, a split jet stream, caused by El Nio, allowed farmers to finish fall crop harvest and tillage operations in the northern United States. The majority of the soybean, cotton, and sorghum acreages were harvested by the end of the year. However, the weather pattern caused continued wetness across Southern States and delayed fall harvest and planting activities through the end of December. The very mild weather across the northern United States promoted growth and development of the 1998 winter wheat crop during December. In Kansas, the crop was in mostly good condition with little or no freeze damage. To the north of Kansas, dry weather in the High Plains during the last 3 months of the year left fields with no snow cover and subject to damage by wind and freezing temperatures. 1997 Weather Review: Highlights this year included severe winter flooding in the Pacific Northwest and northern California, a mild winter across the East, and fierce blizzards and frigid temperatures across the Northern Plains followed by catastrophic flooding along the Red River in April. Major flooding also affected the Ohio River Valley in March, and flash flooding struck the Southwest during the summer. Spring was cool and wet over central and eastern areas, but summer turned drier, especially in the mid-Atlantic region and Northeast. Nevertheless, the corn belt once again escaped widespread drought this year. A blizzard buried the central Plains during October, and frequent storms left the southern half of the country unusually wet in November and December, as the El Nio began influencing U.S. weather patterns. In sharp contrast with the previous year, the northern Plains experienced mild, dry weather at the start of the 1997-98 winter. For the year as a whole, most of the country outside of the Pacific coast tended to be slightly cooler than normal, with precipitation generally above normal except across the northeastern quadrant of the country. Winter (December 1996 - February 1997) The winter was mild across most of the country, with average temperatures 2 to 5 degrees F above normal. The notable exception was the northern Plains from Minnesota to Montana, where temperatures averaged 2 to 5 degrees F below normal and a parade of storms brought heavy snows and high winds. Winter precipitation totaled twice the norm over parts of the Dakotas. Precipitation was also more than twice normal over large parts of the Northwest, where a 12-week wet spell resulted in record December precipitation and major flooding. Major river flooding spread across California's Central Valley at the start of the year. Nevada and Idaho were also hard hit by flooding. Though Florida experienced a mild winter, a freeze on January 19 damaged vegetables but left the citrus crop mostly unscathed. Spring (March - May) Spring was cool over the eastern two-thirds of the country and warm across the West. Two major flooding episodes dominated the weather news, with heavy rains causing floods in the Ohio River Valley during early March and melting snows causing record floods in the northern Plains during April. Kentucky bore the brunt of the Ohio Valley flood damage, as Louisville recorded 13.04 inches of rain from February 28 to March 3, including a 24-hour total of 10.48 inches on March 1, setting a new State record. The April flooding of the Red River brought catastrophic damage to eastern North Dakota, where water overran nearly the entire city of Grand Forks. Flooding also affected the James, Minnesota, and upper Mississippi River basins. Along with the winter and spring blizzards, the floods resulted in large numbers of livestock deaths, especially in North Dakota. Spring began and ended with severe tornado outbreaks. In Arkansas, 26 people died on March 1, and 27 died from a single twister in Jarrell, TX on May 27. April also saw a pair of major winter storms strike New England. Plentiful precipitation benefited most winter wheat areas this spring, though a severe freeze damaged some wheat on April 11-13 on the central and southern Plains. Ironically, topsoil moisture was unfavorably low across North Dakota by spring's end, little more than one month after the Red River flood. Summer (June - August) A 10-week spell of cool, wet weather in the Central and Eastern States finally ended around mid-June. Hot, dry weather in July concerned central Corn Belt farmers, but August rains revived crops. June-August rainfall totals were above normal over most of the country, major exceptions being parts of Illinois, Indiana, and Iowa, where rainfall was less than 75 percent of normal, and the Eastern Seaboard. Drought, aggravated by spells of heat, affected the mid-Atlantic region as well as parts of the Southeast and Northeast. Rains from Hurricane Danny, the only tropical system to strike the Gulf or Atlantic coasts this year, soaked the Southeast during mid-July, relieving dryness but causing some flood damage. Danny's rains in conjunction with a cold front relieved drought in parts of the mid-Atlantic region. Heavy rains in mid-August further relieved dryness, but the moisture followed a heat wave that caused mid-Atlantic temperatures to rise into the upper 90s and lower 100s on August 16-17. A persistent flow of tropical moisture governed weather patterns over the Southwest and High Plains from late July through summer's end. Frequent bouts of locally heavy rains caused flash floods in the Southwest, including deadly episodes in Fort Collins, CO on July 28, Douglas, AZ on August 5, and Page, AZ on August 12. Autumn (September - November) A Pacific hurricane, Nora, struck the Southwest on September 25 after diminishing to tropical storm strength. She brought heavy rains to California and Arizona, including more rainfall (3.83 inches) in Yuma, AZ than is normally collected during an entire year. In mid-October, the weather pattern changed from dry and warm to wet and cool for the Eastern Seaboard and Gulf Coast. Even before the change, very heavy rains led to flooding across southeastern Texas during October 6-13, helping to boost autumn totals to more than 20 inches in several spots along the coast. A massive winter storm struck the central Plains from October 24 to 26, snarling traffic, lodging unharvested summer crops, and killing thousands of cattle. The blizzard that pounded Colorado left 22 inches of snow in Denver and drifts several feet high across the Colorado plains. The cold wave accompanying the storm broke more than 100 daily low-temperature records from October 25 to 28. The weather turned drier after the storm in the central Plains, but storminess prevailed across the southern tier of States and over the Northeast in November. In Maine, Portland's snow total of 20.5 inches was its highest November tally since 1921. November precipitation was 200 to 400 percent of normal in much of California. December December's weather pattern featured a typical El Nio configuration, with a northern west-to-east steering current keeping cold air to the north out of the lower 48 States and a vigorous southern jet maintaining cool and wet weather across the southern States. Monthly temperatures were 5 to 15 degrees F above normal across the North-Central States and as much as 3 degrees F below normal in the Southeast. Heavy snows fell across the southern Rockies and southern Plains, and record rains pelted Florida. Up to 11 inches of rain caused floods in central Florida on December 9 to 15, and more rains fell before year end. Tampa's monthly total of 15.57 inches smashed its previous record for December of 7.36 inches set in 1907. Precipitation was light across the northern Plains. In Glasgow, MT, no measurable rain or snow fell from November 22 to December 26, the longest such dry spell since 1973. Opposite conditions prevailed farther south. By Christmas Day, snow was 3 to 4 feet deep across parts of Arizona and New Mexico. Earlier in the month, a rare December snowstorm left up to 8 inches of snow on Mississippi on December 14. Corn: The 1997 corn for grain production was estimated at 9.37 billion bushels, up less than 1 percent from the 1996 crop and virtually unchanged from the November 1 forecast. The 1997 production level ranks third behind 1994 and 1992, respectively. The U.S. yield of 127.0 bushels per acre was virtually the same as the 127.1 bushel yield of a year earlier. Planted area totaled 80.2 million acres, 1 percent more than in 1996, and the largest planted acreage since 1985. An estimated 73.7 million acres were harvested for grain, also up nearly 1 percent from last year. Corn silage production was estimated at 91.9 million tons, 10 percent above a year earlier. Yield was estimated at 16.0 tons per acre, up 0.6 tons from 1996. Farmers harvested 5.76 million acres for silage, 6 percent more than a year ago. Despite below-normal temperatures, corn planting progressed rapidly and finished ahead of the normal pace. As of June 1, 1997, corn planting was 98 percent complete, compared with the average of 89%. By the beginning of August, 85% of the corn acreage was silking, compared with the average of 75 percent. At that time, percent of the corn rated in good to excellent condition totaled 66 percent, above 62% in 1996. As of the beginning of October, the majority of the Corn Belt remained frost free with the exception of parts of Michigan and Wisconsin. After a mid-October killing frost and snowstorm, favorable harvest conditions prevailed in the Midwest until early November. Grain moisture levels were low and farmers were able to make rapid harvest progress, especially in the western Corn Belt. As of November 2, 75 percent of the corn crop was harvested compared to 64% for the average. The 1997 Corn Objective Yield data indicated an ear count slightly below 1996, but above the 5-year average for the seven objective yield States (Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska, Ohio, and Wisconsin). The record level ears per acre was set in 1996. Cool, wet weather in November slowed harvest in the eastern Corn Belt. As of November 30, 97 percent of the acreage in the 17 major States was harvested. This compares with 96 percent in 1996 and the 5-year average of 93 percent. Sorghum: Grain production for 1997 was estimated at 653 million bushels, down 1 percent from the November forecast and 19 percent below the 1996 production. Grain yields, at 69.5 bushels per acre, were up 0.3 bushels from November 1 and 2.0 bushels above the 1996 average. The final estimate of all sorghum planted was 10.1 million acres, down 23 percent from the year earlier and 2 percent below the June planted estimate. Area harvested for grain was estimated at 9.4 million acres, down 21 percent from 1996. Silage production was estimated to total 3.9 million tons, a decrease of 11 percent from 1996. Area cut for silage was 310,000 acres, 16 percent fewer acres than the previous year. Silage yields averaged 12.5 tons per acre, up 0.8 tons from 1996. A cool, wet spring delayed plantings in most areas. All States showed declining planted acres compared with the previous year, except for Georgia, North Carolina, Oklahoma, and South Dakota. Kansas and Texas showed the largest declines in planted acreage from 1996, down 1.15 and 1.10 million acres, respectively. Last year, a large amount of abandoned winter wheat acres were replanted to sorghum in Kansas, and Texas farmers substituted sorghum on ground where it had been too dry to plant cotton or corn. Timely August rains along with mild late summer weather in the major sorghum areas contributed to good growth and development of the U.S. sorghum crop. Harvest progressed well this year with only a small area of unharvested sorghum left at the end of December. Sorghum harvest was nearing completion in Louisiana by the first week of October while a major snow storm the last week in October slowed harvest in Colorado, Kansas and Nebraska. Oats: Production of oats in 1997 totaled 176 million bushels, 13 percent above last year's record low crop. Despite the increased production over 1996, the 1997 crop is the third lowest production on record since 1866. Grain yield per harvested acre averaged 60.5 bushels, up 2.7 bushels from 1996 and the third highest yield on record. Area harvested for grain, at 2.91 million acres, was up 8 percent from last year, and is the second lowest harvested acreage since estimates were first made. The start of oat planting was delayed by extensive flooding in the Red River Valley of North Dakota and Minnesota. Cool, wet soils in the Northwest also delayed planting. Soil moisture supplies were adequate for the growing season, except in the northern Plains. There, hot, dry weather allowed the crop to catch up to the normal pace of development but stressed the crop during critical stages of growth. During August, generally hot, dry weather across the U. S. provided ideal harvest condition. Oats harvested in the 9 major producing States was 91 percent complete by August 31, 5 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Barley: Production in 1997 was estimated at 374 million bushels, down 5 percent from the previous year's crop. Average yield per acre, at 58.3 was down 0.2 bushels from 1996. The area harvested for grain was estimated at 6.43 million acres, 5 percent less than 1996. There have been no changes to acreage, yield or production since the "Small Grains Summary" was published in September 1997. All Wheat: The final 1997 production totaled 2.53 billion bushels. This is unchanged from the estimate published in the "Small Grains Summary", and 11 percent more than in 1996. There were no changes to either area for grain or yields. Rice: Production totaled 179 million cwt during 1997, up 4 percent from last year and the fourth largest crop on record. Area for harvest, at 3.03 million acres, was up 8 percent from 1996. This season marked a year of acreage increases for all major rice states except Texas. Yields were lower in all states but California which had the highest crop yield since 1994. The U.S. yield per harvested acre averaged 5,896 pounds, 225 pounds below last year's record high average. In the Delta States (Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Missouri), planting was delayed by cool, wet weather. Growers, especially in Louisiana, encountered some disease problems. Crop development eventually caught up and the region produced a good crop. In California, growers had an excellent growing season with average yields 810 pounds above last year's reduced crop. Texas growers got a very late start planting due to excessive moisture and crop progress remained behind normal for most of the season. Flaxseed: Production of flaxseed in 1997 totaled 2.2 million bushels, up 36 percent from 1996. The yield is estimated at 16.1 bushels per acre, down 1.3 bushels from last year. A total of 146,000 acres were planted in 1997, an increase of 52 percent from 1996. Harvested acres is estimated at 135,000 acres, up 47 percent from last year. In North Dakota, the leading state, production totaled 1.8 million bushels, up 27 percent from 1996. Peanuts: Production of peanuts in 1997 totaled 3.55 billion pounds, down 3 percent from the 1996 crop but 2 percent above the 1995 crop. Planted and harvested areas at 1.43 and 1.41 million acres, respectively, were both up 2 percent from 1996. Peanut acreage in Texas jumped 18 percent from a year ago, up 49,000 acres. The U.S. yield per harvested acre averaged 2,523 pounds, down 130 pounds from 1996. Production in the Southeastern States (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina) totaled 1.96 billion pounds, down 9 percent from 1996. The average yield for the 4-State area was 2,439 pounds per acre, 197 pounds below last year. Conditions were either too wet or too dry during most of the season. Reduced acreage and average crop yields contributed to a 7 percent drop in Georgia production. Alabama realized the lowest yield since 1990 while Florida posted the second highest yield since 1985. Production from the Virginia-North Carolina area totaled 524 million pounds, down 11 percent from 1996. A cool, wet spring followed by dry, hot weather reduced yield and production potential in the growing area. The Southwest crop (New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas) totaled 1.06 billion pounds, up 15 percent from a year ago. Yields in the 3-State area averaged 2,604 pounds per acre, 60 pounds above 1996 and 581 pounds above the 1995 crop. The Texas crop recorded their highest production ever and tied last year's record yield of 2,600 pounds per acre. Soybeans: Soybean Production in 1997 totaled 2.73 billion bushels, down slightly from the November 1 forecast and up 14 percent from 1996. The 1997 production is the highest on record. The last record production was set in 1994 at 2.52 billion bushels. Planted area for the U.S. at 70.9 million acres was up 10 percent from 1996, and is the third largest plantings on record. Harvested area totaled 69.9 million acres, an increase of 10 percent from 1996. The average yield per acre in 1997 is estimated at 39.0 bushels, 0.2 bushels below the November 1 forecast, but 1.4 bushels above the 1996 yield. This is the second highest yield on record behind the 1994 yield of 41.4 bushels per acre. The average planting date for 1997 was well ahead of the previous two years and was comparable to the 1994 planting season. In the eight major producing states, spring planting was two weeks ahead of 1995 and 1996. Planting in the Southeastern states ran slightly behind the previous year. Overall, this year's soybean crop matured well ahead of the last two years. Drought conditions during mid-summer caused severe stress to the crop across the Mid-Atlantic regions resulting in reduced yields. The soybean harvest progressed ahead of last year and slightly ahead of the five year average with 98 percent of the crop harvested by November 30, compared to 96 percent last year, and a five year average of 97 percent. Harvest was virtually complete in all of the 8 major producing states with the exception of Arkansas, which was 94 percent complete, 11 points ahead of last year. The final pod count per 18 square feet was above the 1996 final in Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, and Ohio. The final pod counts in Iowa, Missouri, and Nebraska, fell below 1996 pod counts. Cotton: Upland cotton planted acreage is estimated at 13.6 million acres, down 6 percent from 1996 but harvested acreage at 13.0 million acres, was 3 percent more than last year because of the large abandonment in Texas in 1996. Producers planted 252,000 acres of American-Pima cotton in 1997, down 2 percent from 1996, and harvested acreage was also down 2 percent, at 251,000 acres. Texas' harvest lagged behind the 5-year average until early November, and by late that month, harvest was 7 points ahead of the average pace of 77 percent. Texas' irrigated fields showed good progress this season and unusual high amounts of rainfall in May caused the dryland acreage to develop ahead of the average pace. In the Plains, heavy rain and hail during June damaged fields and forced producers to replant or plant alternative crops. In October, heavy rains during the season slowed harvest in the Upper Coast and the later crop showed quality damage. Objective yield survey data indicated the fourth highest boll weights since 1988. Planted acres in Texas is estimated at 5.50 million, down 4 percent from 1996, but harvested acreage is up 26 percent, at 5.15 million acres. Production in this region is estimated at 5.50 million bales, up 23 percent from the previous year. The Delta States' (Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, and Tennessee) plantings lagged behind average due to wet soils and because other row crops were being planted, but seedings were completed in early June. Precipitation was above normal and cooler than normal temperatures prevailed during the early season, slowing crop development. October's beneficial temperatures and open weather allowed the bolls to finish opening, and yields were higher than had been expected earlier in the season. Harvest exceeded the 5-year average pace in Louisiana and Mississippi, and in early November Louisiana had 98 percent of the crop harvested, 6 points ahead of the 5-year average. Mississippi producers were 85 percent complete, 1 point above average. Harvest in the other States in this region was about three-fourths finished, slightly behind their normal pace. Boll weights ranked eighth in Arkansas, ninth in Louisiana, and seventh in Mississippi compared to the previous 10 years. Planted and harvested acreage is this region was down 13 percent from 1996, at 3.45 million acres and 3.40 million acres respectively. The region's production was 5 percent less than in 1996, at 5.76 million bales. Arizona's planted and harvested acres increased by 2 percent from 1996, but California producers decreased planted and harvested acreage by 12 percent. Early planting approval was again granted in Arizona to lessen effects of whitefly, and the crop also benefitted from good weather. California's seeding pace was well ahead of average most of the season as warm, dry weather prevailed. Eighty-nine percent of Arizona's crop was in good to excellent condition and 90 percent of bolls were opening in early September, which equaled the 5-year average. Cotton development in California remained ahead of average, with 80 percent of the crop showing open bolls compared to an average of 59 percent, in early September. Harvest was slightly behind the 5-year average in Arizona, but slightly ahead of the normal pace for California producers. California's boll weights were second highest since 1988. The three western States produced 3.11 million bales in 1997, 4 percent less than last year. In the Southeastern States (Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina), cotton planted acreage was 2 percent more than in 1996, at 2.94 million acres. The planting pace was behind average early in the season, but a dry period in mid-May allowed producers to exceed the average pace. Early June storms in Georgia and Alabama replenished soil moisture and improved crop condition. Many fields in Georgia and Alabama were replanted due to seedling disease, cool temperatures causing poor stands, and soil crusting from the heavy rains. Alabama was subject to unusual heavy rainfall during the season, as well as cool temperatures. In addition, Hurricane Danny entered into the southwestern portion of the State in late July with torrential rains. All of these States were behind the average harvest progress during the season. Production totaled 3.78 million bales for this region in 1997, a 13 percent decrease from the previous year. American-Pima production is forecast at 537,000 bales, up 2 percent from 1996's output, and up 4,000 bales from the December forecast. Yield is indicated at 1,027 pounds per harvested acre, up 36 pounds from last year. The California crop experienced virtually ideal growing conditions in June and July, with development nearly two weeks ahead of normal. However, lygus bug pressure eventually caused significant square shedding on some of the acreage in the San Joaquin Valley. The Texas crop also progressed well with irrigation and hot temperatures. California producers increased their seedings 12 percent from the previous year, to 185,000 acres, but Arizona's acreage decreased 48 percent from 1996 to 22,000 acres. Texas and New Mexico producers also reduced their plantings by 14 percent and 7 percent, respectively. Cottonseed: Production for 1997, based on a 3-year average lint-seed ratio, is expected to total 7.28 million tons, up 2 percent from 1996's production of 7.14 million tons. Special Oilseeds: Planted acres for canola, flaxseed ,mustard seed, and safflower, increased sharply from 1996. Harvested acres for canola, flaxseed, and mustard seed, more than doubled last year's area harvested, while harvested acres for rapeseed was down from last year. The yield for canola averaged 1,310 pounds, down 74 pounds from 1996. Rapeseed averaged 1,300 pounds per acre in 1997, down 170 pounds from 1996. The yield for safflower at 1,830 pounds per acre, was virtually unchanged from the previous year. Mustard seed averaged 816 pounds per acre, an increase of 31 pounds from 1997. Sunflower: The 1997 Sunflower production totaled 3.76 billion pounds, up 5 percent from the 1996 production. The estimated yield per acre at 1,320 pounds, is down 115 pounds from 1996. Planted acres were up sharply from 1996 at 2.95 million acres, an increase of 15 percent. Harvested acres at 2.85 million acres increased 14 percent from last year. In North Dakota, the leading state, production is estimated at 1.86 billion pounds, up 7 percent from 1996. The yield per acre at 1,321 pounds was 167 pounds below last year. Planted and harvested acres were up from 1996 and closer to the 1995 level. All Hay: Production for 1997 was estimated at 152 million tons, down sightly from the October 1 forecast but 2 percent above the revised 1996 total. Acreage harvested, at 60.8 million acres, is essentially unchanged from the October forecast and less than 1 percent below 1996. The average yield, at 2.50 tons per acre, was unchanged from October 1 and 2 percent above the previous year. Texas moved to the number one hay producing State followed by California, South Dakota, Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. All states in the west except Nevada, which was unchanged, showed increased production. Texas and Arizona had the largest increases at 38 and 22 percent respectively. The increases were nearly offset by the declines in the New England states, Mid Atlantic states, and the south. Alfalfa and Alfalfa Mixtures: Production in 1997 totaled 79.2 million tons, up 1 percent from the October 1 forecast and essentially unchanged from the revised 1996 total. Declines in harvested acreage from the previous year were offset by higher yields in 1997. Harvested acreage, at 23.7 million acres, increased slightly from October 1 but was down 3 percent from a year ago. Yields averaged 3.35 tons per acre, up 0.08 tons from the previous year. The majority of producing States showed increases in average yields from 1996, especially throughout the west. Warm, dry weather in California and adequate water supply for irrigation has resulted in a record level yield at 7.20 tons per acre. All Other Hay: Production in 1997 totaled 72.9 million tons, down 1 percent from the October 1 forecast but up 4 percent from the revised 1996 total. An increase in both harvested acreage and average yields lead to the increased production. Area for harvest, at 37.1 million acres, was essentially unchanged from October 1 and 2 percent above 1996. Average yield, at 1.96 tons per acre, was up 3 percent from 1996. Harvested acreage increased or stayed the same as 1996 in 60 percent of the producing States. Arizona showed the largest acreage increase, up 111 percent, from last year, followed by Ohio, up 30 percent. Production increases were common across the nation with the exception of the New England States, the Mid Atlantic States, and the southern states from Louisiana to Florida. Of the major producing States, Texas and Missouri showed the largest production increases, up 45 and 4 percent, respectively, from 1996. Texas continued to rank as the number one producing State followed by Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Oklahoma. Dry Edible Beans: Production of dry edible beans is estimated at 29.2 million cwt for 1997, 4 percent above 1996 but 5 percent below two years ago. Area for harvest is estimated at 1.72 million acres, down 2 percent from 1996 and 9 percent below 1995. The average yield, at 1,695 pounds per acre, rose 100 pounds from 1996 and was the second highest yield on record. The record high yield of 1,764 pounds was set in 1991. The major producing states of California, Colorado, and Idaho equaled or exceeded their previous record high yields. California's growers averaged 2,250 pounds per acre, compared with the previous high of 2,157 pounds per acre set in 1991. The increase was due in part to growers switching acreage from kidney beans to the higher yielding lima beans. Colorado averaged 1,900 pounds per acre, equal to 1990's record, and Idaho averaged 2,150 pounds per acre, 10 pounds per acre above the previous record set in 1973. In North Dakota a dry spring caused uneven germination and development; excessive rain in July drowned some acreage. However, a dry August and September improved the prospects. The dry bean harvest was over a week ahead of average due to favorable weather continuing into October. Harvest was virtually complete by mid-October, well ahead of average. Michigan's ideal planting weather allowed growers to get the crop in with more long season varieties than the previous year. The crop fared well with variable rainfall throughout the summer growing season. However, excessive rainfall on September 9 and 10, combined with cool conditions, caused damage to the navy beans. Harvest started late but finished ahead of schedule with good weather at the end of September and the beginning of October. Cutting in Nebraska began ahead of 1996's pace, but finished in mid-October, the same as 1996. Harvest went smoothly in California with good quality. Crop development in Idaho was behind 1996 for most of the season, but no serious problems occurred getting the beans cut. However, in the southwest part of the state, some producers experienced rain delays, and beans started germinating in the pod, causing decreased yields. In New York, growers experienced a mixed year. An unseasonably cold, wet May delayed early bean seedings. June brought warmer temperatures and drier soils, which allowed the majority of the acreage to be planted on time. A dry August reduced soil moisture and reduced yields. Significant rainfall in September bolstered grower's expectations for above normal yields, but these yields were not fully realized when the crop was harvested. In Oregon and Utah, growers had a generally good year, while in Montana and Wisconsin white mold was a problem. Most Wisconsin growers reported the crop in good shape at the beginning and at mid-season, but white mold set in and decreased yields in west-central Wisconsin. Hail and flooding in Montana and rain storms in Wisconsin also destroyed some planted acreage. Production is above 1996 in all estimating states except New Mexico, Kansas, North Dakota, and Minnesota. New Mexico dropped 23 percent, Kansas fell 14 percent, North Dakota declined 8 percent, and Minnesota slipped 1 percent, Production of many minor varieties was well above 1996 levels, but navy production fell 9 percent, pintos dropped 11 percent, dark red kidneys declined 8 percent, and garbanzo production was off 24 percent from last year. Lentils: Production of lentils in Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, and Washington is estimated at 2.39 million cwt, up 79 percent from 1996's drought-stricken crop. Harvest in Idaho got off to a slow start in August but was virtually completed by late September in Idaho and Washington. Both harvested acres and yields were above last year. Harvested area, at 172,000 acres, was up 23 percent from 1996, while the average yield of 1,390 pounds, was up 438 pounds from last year. Wrinkled Seed Peas: Production of wrinkled seed peas in the two Northwest States (Idaho and Washington) totaled 682,000 cwt in 1997, 24 percent above the 1996 crop but 35 percent below the 1995 crop. Dry Edible Peas: Production of dry peas in Idaho, Montana, Nevada, North Dakota, Oregon, and Washington in 1997 is estimated at a record large 5.82 million cwt, more than double 1996's production and 22 percent above 1995. The 1997 production exceeded the previous record of 5.80 million cwt set in 1947. Adequate rainfall in 1997 led to yields in Idaho and Washington well above those from the 1996 growing season. In addition, marked growth in dry pea production is occurring in Montana and North Dakota. These two states, plus Nevada and Oregon, produced more dry peas in 1996 and 1997 than Idaho. Overall, planted area in 1997 reached 293,600 acres, and harvested area totaled 276,600 acres. These are the largest planted and harvested areas since 1963 when growers planted 335,000 acres and harvested 315,000 acres. Austrian Winter Peas: The Austrian winter pea crop of 115,000 cwt in Idaho and Oregon is up 12 percent from 1996 but 3 percent below the 1995 production. Area harvested, at 7,600 acres, is up 4 percent from last year, while the average yield increased 102 pounds in 1997 to 1,513 pounds. All Potatoes: Total U.S. 1997 potato production from all four seasons is estimated at 460 million cwt, down 8 percent from 1996 but 4 percent above 1995. Harvested area, at 1.33 million acres, was down 7 percent from 1996. Average yield of 347 cwt per acre was down 3 cwt from the previous year. Winter Potatoes: Winter potato production is estimated at 3.12 million cwt, down 5 percent from a year earlier but 26 percent above the 1995 output. Harvested acreage was estimated at 15,400 acres, a gain of 6 percent acres from 1996. The final yield of 203 cwt per acre fell 23 cwt short of the previous year. Spring Potatoes: Production estimates of spring potatoes totaled 21.7 million cwt in 1997, down 3 percent from a year earlier but 8 percent above 1995's output. Harvested area totaled 86,200 acres, down 4 percent from 1996, while the average yield of 252 cwt per acre gained 3 cwt from last year. Final 1997 estimates were higher in California and North Carolina, but lower in the Hastings area of Florida than the May 1 forecast. Summer Potatoes: Growers produced 18.0 million cwt of summer potatoes in 1997, down 8 percent from 1996 but up less than 1 percent from 1995. Harvested area, at 65,900 acres, fell 12 percent, while the average yield of 272 cwt per acre gained 11 cwt from a year ago. The year-end estimate places the summer potato crop 4 percent above the September 1 forecast, with increases shown primarily in Illinois, Nebraska, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, and Iowa. Fall Potatoes: Production of fall potatoes in 1997 is estimated at 417 million cwt, down 8 percent from last year but 3 percent above two years ago. Area harvested, at 1.16 million acres, is off 7 percent from last year and 4 percent short of 1995. The average yield is estimated at 360 cwt per acre, down 4 cwt from last year but 26 cwt above two years ago. Five Eastern States produced 31.7 million cwt of fall potatoes in 1997, down 8 percent from last year but 5 percent above two years ago. Potatoes were harvested from 118,500 acres, a decline of 6 percent from last year. The average yield of 267 cwt per acre was down 6 cwt from last year. Maine growers produced 19.2 million cwt, 10 percent less than last year. Both acreage and yield were down. Pennsylvania's production dropped 24 percent, while New York output gained 5 percent over a year ago. The Massachusetts potato crop was fractionally smaller than last year, but Rhode Island gained 8 percent. Eight Central State's production is forecast at 95.2 million cwt this year, down 11 percent from last year. Harvested area is estimated at 335,400 acres, off 9 percent from last year. The average yield of 284 cwt per acre was down 8 cwt from last year. Nebraska's production jumped 71 percent, with increases in both acreage and yield. Michigan's production gained 3 percent over last year's rain damaged crop. The rest of the Central States had smaller crops. North Dakota's production dropped 25 percent, South Dakota's production fell 22 percent, Minnesota's output slipped 17 percent, and Wisconsin potatoes were off 12 percent from year ago levels. Ohio dropped 8 percent, and Indiana slipped 2 percent. Ten Western States produced 290 million cwt in 1997, down 7 percent from last year but 5 percent above two years ago. Acreage for harvest, at 704,100 acres, was down 7 percent, and the average yield of 412 cwt per acre was off 2 cwt from a year ago. Less harvested acreage from a year ago dropped total production in most Western States. However, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, Nevada, New Mexico, and Utah all had record high yields. Production in Idaho was down 5 percent, Oregon was off 10 percent, and Washington dropped 7 percent. Colorado was down 13 percent, with declines in both acreage and yield. Wyoming's production fell 38 percent, Utah declined 22 percent, California dropped 9 percent, and Nevada declined 6 percent. Montana registered a 4 percent increase in potato production over last year, and New Mexico gained 3 percent. Sweet Potatoes: The 1997 sweet potato crop is estimated at 13.0 million cwt, down 3 percent from 1996 but 1 percent above 1995. Growers dug 83,500 acres in 1997, down 2 percent from 1996. The average yield was 156 cwt per acre, down 3 cwt from 1996. A cool, wet spring and dry summer weather restricted yields in the southeastern States. Tobacco: U.S. tobacco production totaled 1.68 billion pounds, up 11 percent from the 1996 crop and 32 percent above 1995. Growers harvested 797,265 acres in 1997, up 9 percent from last year. Yield per acre averaged 2,106 pounds, up 35 pounds from 1996 but 34 pounds below the five-year average of 2,140 pounds. Flue-cured production is estimated at 1.02 billion pounds, 13 percent more than last year and 37 percent above 1995. Harvested acres totaled 455,700, up 8 percent from 1996 and 18 percent above 1995. Flue-cured yields averaged 2,249 pounds, up 98 pounds from last year and 316 pounds above 1995. Burley production totaled 565 million pounds in 1997, 9 percent above last year's output. Growers harvested 299,300 acres in 1997 compared with 268,300 acres a year ago. Yield per acre averaged 1,889 pounds, down 51 pounds from last year. Sugarbeets: Production for the U.S. is expected to total 29.9 million tons in 1997, an increase of 12 percent from 1996 but a decrease of less than 1 percent from November. Area for harvest, at 1.43 million acres, is up 8 percent from last year but down fractionally from November. The average yield, at 20.9 tons per acre, is up 0.7 ton from 1996 but down 0.1 tons from November. Planting in the Red River Valley of Minnesota and North Dakota was delayed by extensive flooding. However, after a late start, the sugarbeet crop manifested yields higher than expected with excellent quality. Favorable growing and harvesting conditions in Idaho lead to increased beet production over 1996. In the central Plains, the season was mostly favorable for beet production. However, some thin stands, a rainy period during the summer, and a heavy snowstorm near the end of harvest limited production potential in some areas. Michigan's sugarbeet yield was the best in several years as excellent harvest conditions capped off a favorable growing season. California acreage was up as the industry adjusted to the consolidation of factories. Growing season conditions were mostly favorable, with no major disease or pest problems reported. In Texas, both tonnage and sucrose content were disappointing after spring rains delayed planting and cloudy days during the growing season limited production potential. Sugarcane: U.S. sugarcane production for sugar and seed in 1997 is expected to total 31.1 million tons, up 6 percent from 1996 and up 2 percent from December. The expected area for harvest, at 915,500 acres, is 3 percent above last year and up fractionally from last month. The forecasted yield, at 34.0 tons per acre, is 0.9 tons above 1996 and up 0.6 tons from December. In Florida, there have been no major problems thus far in the harvesting season. Harvest started in the middle of October 1997 and should conclude in the last half of March 1998. The 1997 Louisiana sugarcane crop was one of the best in several years. No major problems were experienced during the summer, and fall growth, tonnage, and sucrose content were excellent. Louisiana harvest was completed by the end of December 1997. Hawaii's sugarcane production declined in 1997 reflecting the further downsizing of the sugar industry in the State. Sugar is now only produced on the islands of Maui and Kauai. Although the weather's effects were mixed during the year, they were generally favorable for sugarcane production. In Texas, 1997 production was down from last year due to decreased acreage. Harvest conditions were nearly ideal with trash at a minimum. Peppermint Oil: Production of peppermint oil in 1997 is estimated at 10.3 million pounds, up 9 percent from 1996 and a new record high for harvested acres, yield and production. The previous record high for production was 9.45 million pounds, set in 1995. The average 1997 yield was 75 pounds of oil per acre, up 3 pounds from 1996's record high yield. Idaho and Washington growers had record large production levels in 1997. Spearmint Oil: Production of spearmint oil in 1997 is estimated at 2.40 million pounds, up 12 percent from 1996. Area for harvest stood at 24,500 acres, compared with 22,700 acres in 1996. The average yield per acre was a recording-breaking 98 pounds of oil per acre, compared with 95 pounds the previous year. Washington growers produced 74 percent of the 1997 crop, with an average yield of 136 pounds of oil per acre. In Washington, the first cutting started in mid-June for both Scotch and Native varieties with average yields and cool temperatures. Irrigation water was in good supply. The second cutting yielded a little above average due to warmer temperatures. Hops: Production of hops in 1997 in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington totaled 74.9 million pounds, down less than 1 percent from 1996. Area harvested fell 859 acres, or 2 percent, from 1996 and was 1,152 acres below the estimated acreage strung for harvest in June 1997. Oregon growers experienced a 242 pound per acre increase in average yield, while Idaho growers recorded a more modest 17 pound per acre increase. Yields in Washington fell 24 pounds per acre from 1996, and acreage for harvest was off 598 acres, to 31,080 acres, from 1996. Washington produced three-fourths of the total 1997 crop. The most common variety in the Pacific Northwest was Nugget, with 23.9 percent of 1997's total production. Washington growers had a troublesome year, as powdery mildew was present beginning in the spring, resulting in some hop yards being cut down before harvest. To minimize the effect of the disease, other acreage was harvested prematurely. Varieties that were fairly susceptible included Symphony, Galena, Cluster, and Chinook. In June, Washington growers indicated that 32,214 acres were strung for harvest. Losses to powdery mildew resulted in only 31,080 acres being harvested this fall. Maple Syrup: The 1997 U.S. maple syrup production totaled 1.29 million gallons, down 17 percent from last year. The U.S. estimate consists of the ten major producing States. Maple syrup production decreased in all States except Maine and Ohio. In general, producers experienced changeable weather and cold temperatures that hampered good flow. All States but Ohio averaged a lower yield per tap. The tapping season was the same length as last season, but it started a few days earlier. Most of the New England area and New York tapped one week longer than Michigan, Ohio, and Wisconsin. Excessive snow cover hampered production in northern Wisconsin and Michigan, but conditions were more favorable in the southern areas of Michigan. Syrup color was medium to light amber in all States but Wisconsin. The sap's sugar content was slightly lower than last year for the nation, but a little higher in New England. Maine had the highest sugar content. Coffee: Hawaii coffee production is estimated at 9.00 million pounds (parchment basis) for the 1997-98 season, up 41 percent from the previous season. Increased harvested acreage, higher yields from maturing trees, and improved harvesting techniques accounted for most of the larger output. Taro: Hawaii taro production for 1997 was estimated at 5.20 million pounds, down 9 percent from last year's revised estimate of 5.70 million pounds. Area harvested was estimated at 450 acres, down 15 percent from 1996. Production for processing declined due to unfavorable weather and the presence of a new disease called Taro Pocket Rot. Production for fresh use also suffered from unfavorable weather and diseases brought on by aphid infestations. Ginger Root: Hawaii ginger root production for the 1996-97 season was estimated at 12.1 million pounds, up 29 percent from the previous season. Increased harvested acreage and improved cultural practices were responsible for the increase in production. Harvested acreage totaled 275 acres, up 38 percent from last season. Yields averaged 44,000 pounds per harvested acre, down 3,000 pounds from the previous season. Various factors contributed to the lower yields, including disease, late planting, and a brief dry spell in late 1996. The continued efforts of farmers to use sanitary measures and disease-free seed have lessened the impact of disease for the second straight year. Overall losses to various types of bacterial disease were relatively light. Report Features The next "Crop Production Summary" report will be released in January 1999.
