sum of all dry hay production and haylage/greenchop production after converting the haylage/greenchop production to a dry equivalent basis (13 percent moisture) by multiplying the green weight (weight at harvest) by .4943. The conversion factor (.4943) is based on the assumption that one ton of dry hay is .87 ton of dry matter, one ton of haylage is .45 ton dry matter and one ton of greenchop is .25 ton dry matter. The total haylage/greenchop production is assumed to be comprised of 90 percent haylage and 10 percent greenchop. Therefore, the conversion factor used to adjust haylage/greenchop production to a dry equivalent basis = ((.45*.9)+(.25*.1))/.87 = .4943. The factors assumed here may vary by State and can be adjusted. Adjustments would result in a slightly different conversion factor.

The final tally for this unprecedented season had reached 27 named storms and 14 hurricanes by the end of the year. Moisture from storm remnants did provide some needed rains to parts of the Corn Belt during the growing season, although severe drought persisted from spring to the end of the year in Illinois and Iowa. Summer drought also parched Missouri, and dryness that began in the spring over the southern Plains and lower Mississippi Valley affected the region through much of the remainder of the year, despite temporary respite from hurricane rains. Prolific rain and snow finally relieved the 5-year drought in the Southwest and Colorado River Basin during the 2004-05 wet season, although contrasting dryness affected the Pacific Northwest. Winter (December 2004 - February 2005): The Pacific storm system continued to pound the West Coast into early January, with a second major storm on January 7-11. Impressive rainfall amounts accumulated in the valleys from southern California to southern Utah, while mountain snows piled up in the Sierra Nevada and across the Southwest. Five to 10 inches of rain hit southern California, and up to 2 feet of rain pelted the San Gabriel Mountains north of Los Angeles. The 15 days ending on January 10 saw the wettest 15 days on record for Los Angeles, with the 17 inches measured during this period exceeding the average for an entire year. Huge snowfalls hit the Sierra, especially in the Lake Tahoe area, with 5 to 8 feet common. Ski resorts reported as much as 20 feet of snow on the ground by the 11th. The rains in southern California triggered flooding and mudslides. Flooding in southern Utah caused houses to collapse into raging river waters. The associated storm system traveled eastward, bringing additional rains to areas in the Ohio Valley already suffering from flooding due to earlier storms and snow melt. On January 10, the Ohio River rose to 4 feet above flood stage in Cairo, Illinois, while rivers topped their banks from Arkansas to Ohio. Arctic air invaded the central States behind the cold front, sending thermometer readings down to as low as -44 degrees F on January 17 in International Falls, Minnesota. An "Alberta Clipper" triggered a historic snowstorm later this month in the East. Initially, over one-half foot of snow spread across the Midwest on the 21st, and a second low developed along the East Coast the next day, rapidly deepening into a major Nor'easter. The "Blizzard of 2005" blasted southern New England and southeastern New York on January 22-23 with near-hurricane force winds and 1 to 2 feet of snow. Boston's 22.5-inch total on January 22-23 was the city's second greatest 2-day snowfall on record, second only to the historic 27.1 inches that buried the city on February 6-7, 1978. Also notable this month was a major ice storm that spread treacherous conditions from northeast Alabama to northern and central Georgia on January 28-31, when downed tree limbs and power lines left 400,000 customers without electricity. February saw more Pacific storms strike the West Coast and hammer the Great Basin and Southwest. Heavy rain and snow on February 11-12 brought flooding to southern California and Arizona, while an even bigger storm unleashed mudslides, flooding, and even tornadoes over California on February 17-23. Heavy rains also drenched Hawaii this month, with over 5 inches launching floods on Oahu during February 2. The Southwest ended up with its second wettest season in over 100 years, but much drier weather led to drought farther north. December-February cumulative precipitation totaled just 50 percent of normal from Washington through Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, and into the western Dakotas and Nebraska. A number of high-elevation sites in Idaho, Montana, and Washington were snow-free in early March for the first time in decades. Despite some wild temperature swings, December-February averaged abnormally mild for the country, as nearly every State saw above-normal temperatures. Readings averaged 4 degrees F or more above normal from the Rockies to the Midwest, and as much as 8 degrees F above normal in the upper Midwest. Spring (March - May): Following a winter that arguably resulted in the Northwest's lowest snowfall since the drought of 1976-77, raising serious water supply concerns, the weather pattern changed drastically in mid-March, as a stormier pattern took hold from the Northwest into the High Plains. Persistently damp weather affected the West and northern Plains, Southeast, and New England this spring, while abnormally cool air covered the East. March-May precipitation totaled 150 to 200 percent of normal for the Northwest and most of the Great Basin. Winter lingered over the eastern third of the Nation. A spring snowstorm on April 2-3 brought 6.4 inches of snow to Cleveland, while an even later snowstorm on April 24-25 boosted the seasonal total to a record 117.9 inches. In early April, heavy rain and snowmelt led to major flooding in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York, flood stages reaching the second to fourth highest on record in this region, with the worst flooding since 1955 along Pennsylvania's Susquehanna River. Late April and early May freezes struck jointing- to heading-stage winter wheat from South Dakota into Oklahoma, and freezes even threatened the small portion of the corn crop that had already emerged in the Midwest. Another storm brought heavy rain and snow to the West and Plains on May 9-12. In Grand Island, Nebraska, 9.25 inches of rain on May 11-12 set off flash flooding. Up to 2 feet of snow also blanketed the mountains of Wyoming. In California, still more snow added to this winter's amazing Sierra Nevada snow pack during May. The 18 inches that fell on Mammoth Mountain brought the seasonal snowfall total to 607 inches (over 50 feet). Near-record snow pack also accumulated in Utah, and flows this season reached above-normal levels in the Colorado River Basin for the first time since 1999. Although the moisture greatly benefited the water supply situation across the region, Powell and Mead reservoir storage remained below normal and a continuing concern. Winter finally bowed out by mid-May, as an impressive heat wave covered the West from around May 16 to 24. In southern Utah, daily highs approached 100 degrees F from May 20 to 25, and hundreds of daily-record high temperature records fell across the Southwest starting on May 19. Spring also saw the beginnings of a drought that would plague a region extending from the Great Lakes to the southern Plains and lower Mississippi Valley off and on for the rest of the year. Illinois and Michigan experienced their third driest spring on record. In contrast, Idaho and Nevada saw their second wettest spring, and Oregon its third wettest. Summer (June - August): The dry spring transitioned into a dry summer for much of the area from Michigan and Wisconsin through Missouri, Arkansas, and eastern Texas. June weather in particular exacerbated drought, as rainfall totaled less than one-half of normal in and around Illinois and also in east Texas and adjacent States. Temperatures running 2 to 4 degrees F above normal further aggravated drought. By early July, severe drought had spread across much of this region, threatening crops in the heart of the Corn Belt. Although the drought persisted in northern Illinois and eastern Iowa, timely rains in July and August, some of which came from hurricane remnants, kept the drought's impacts from being as bad as feared. Much of the country endured an unusually hot and humid summer. The most notable heat wave seared the West starting in mid-July and later expanded to the central States. Denver reached 100 degrees F or higher for 5 consecutive days during July 19-23, and its reading of 105 degrees F on the 20th tied their all-time highest temperature. Death Valley, California notched highs of at least 125 degrees F each day from July 14 to 20. Farther east, Goodland, Kansas experienced its hottest day in 58 years (109 degrees F on July 20) and, in Illinois, Peoria's reading of 104 degrees F on the 24th was its hottest since 1988. June-August temperatures averaged 2 to 4 degrees F above normal from the Midwest into the Northeast. New Jersey recorded its hottest summer on record, and 17 other States, mostly in the eastern half of the country, experienced one of their 10 hottest summers. This was an extraordinary tropical storm season. The storms this year targeted the entire Gulf of Mexico coast in 2005. Each of the 4 hurricanes that made landfall in the U.S. this year Dennis, Katrina, Rita, and Wilma tracked through the Gulf of Mexico. Two tropical storms, Arlene and Cindy, were also Gulf storms, while the third tropical storm, Tammy, hit the northeast coast of Florida. Hurricane Ophelia's eyewall reached the North Carolina coast but did not technically make landfall. Hurricane Dennis moved inland near Pensacola, Florida on July 10, less than 5 days after Tropical Storm Cindy struck southeastern Louisiana. Hurricane Emily made her second Mexican landfall on July 20 south of Brownsville, TX, bringing heavy rain to the south Texas drought area. Hurricane Katrina hit southeast Louisiana on August 29 as a category-3 storm and made landfall again in southwestern Mississippi. A storm surge exceeding 25 feet devastated coastal Mississippi, and breaks in New Orleans' levees ultimately submerged some 80 percent of the city. Autumn (September - November): Rita made landfall as a category-3 hurricane on September 24 just east of the Texas-Louisiana border, causing major storm surge flooding and wind damage in southwestern Louisiana and adjacent Texas. The storm's heavy rains alleviated drought from eastern Texas into Arkansas and western Louisiana. Wilma struck the southwest coast of Florida also as a category-3 storm on October 24, leaving some 3.2 million homes and businesses without power and causing extensive crop damage while tracking northeastward across the southern peninsula. Many records fell by the wayside during this historic storm season, including the greatest number of named storms (27), the most hurricanes (14), the most category-5 storms (3), lowest pressure (Hurricane Wilma, October 19, 882 millibars), and the greatest total cost (estimated $125 billion). With the hurricane storm tracks staying to the west, this was one of the driest Septembers ever for much of the Eastern Seaboard, as meager rainfall totals extended from New England to Florida. Washington DC's monthly total of 0.11 inches broke a record that had stood since 1884. The dryness continued into the first week of October, raising drought concerns over a large area. Conditions completely reversed in October. Tropical Storm Tammy struck the eastern coast of Florida on October 5 and eventually dissipated near the Florida Panhandle. Although Tammy was an unremarkable storm, she helped to funnel enormous amounts of tropical moisture northward. An upper air trough and a cold front focused the ensuing rainfall in a zone stretching more than a thousand miles. The resulting deluge from October 6 to 9 brought 3 to 7 inches of rain from the Carolinas to New England, with isolated totals of a foot, eradicating drought conditions nearly everywhere across the region. Only a few days later, heavy rain returned to the Northeast, New York City's Central Park setting an October 12 record with 4.26 inches. Overflowing lakes and streams forced hundreds of people from their homes in New Jersey and New Hampshire. Still another storm hit the region late in the month, this one accompanied by rain and snow, ensuring that the Northeast States would record their wettest all-time October, with some cities seeing over 15 inches of rain, and New Hampshire's Mt. Washington measuring 78.9 inches of snow. November was remarkable for its outbreaks of severe weather. The deadliest twister of the year struck the Evansville, Indiana area on the 6th, destroying or severely damaging over 100 buildings and leaving 23 people dead. Five killer tornadoes this month caused a total of 27 fatalities. Autumn rainfall under 50 percent of normal worsened drought in the southern Plains, especially in east Texas and southeastern Oklahoma, while temperatures averaging 3 to 4 degrees F above normal aggravated the dry conditions. Nearly the entire Nation outside of the West Coast, Alaska, and Hawaii was abnormally mild. In contrast, an impressive cold snap dominated Alaska in November, Fairbanks experiencing its coldest November since 1989. Below-normal rainfall maintained drought in the northern Illinois-eastern Iowa drought area, as both Chicago and Rockford notched their driest March-November on record. December: A wintry pattern developed by early December, and frigid Canadian air plunged southward into the Plains early in the month and eventually encompassed much of the Nation. The cold shattered numerous low temperature records. Alliance, Nebraska, for example, attained a record daily low of 23 degrees F on the 8th, breaking the old record by 10 degrees F. Widespread snow swept across the central and eastern States during December 7-9, including a Nor'easter that featured thunder snow in New England on the 9th, along with 70-mph wind gusts on Cape Cod and the islands. On December 15, freezing rain left a layer of ice up to three quarters of an inch thick from Georgia to the Carolinas, causing 683,000 customers to lose power. On the West Coast, a parade of Pacific storms began to batter the region during the second half of December. Heavy rains, flooding, high winds, heavy mountain snows, and mudslides affected the region from central California into Washington. In northern California, 4 to 9 inches of rain falling in 24 hours on December 30-31 sent the Napa and other rivers in wine country to flood stage. The change in jet stream pattern allowed milder Pacific air to overrun much of the Nation, and the last third of the month was abnormally mild, in sharp contrast to the wintry start. The storms bypassed most of the Southwest, as well as the increasingly dry areas in the southern Plains. The combination of high winds, warm and dry air, and extreme drought contributed to an outbreak of grass fires in Oklahoma and northern Texas that scorched thousands of acres by the end of the month and burned down more than 100 homes. Increasingly intense drought left the vegetation tinder dry in the southern Plains as the New Year began, stressing pastures and winter grains and raising fire danger to critical levels. A large area from northern Texas into Oklahoma and extending into Arkansas and Louisiana ended the year in extreme (D3) to exceptional (D4) drought, as rated by the U.S. Drought Monitor. In Texas, both San Antonio and Dallas-Fort Worth ended up with their driest year since 1956. 2005 Annual Crop Summary April: Above-normal temperatures through most of the month gave way to cooler temperatures in the final week. Mostly dry conditions in the Great Plains and Corn Belt allowed rapid planting of corn and small grains. By month's end, growers had planted 52 percent of the corn crop, 7 percentage points ahead of normal. Oat, barley, and spring wheat planting was 79, 52, and 61 percent complete, respectively, on May 1. However, soybean producers, focusing on their corn crop, had planted just 8 percent of their acreage, 1 point behind normal. Meanwhile, heavy rainfall in the Southeast severely hampered seeding of the cotton and peanut crops, but drier conditions and rapid planting in the southern Great Plains nearly compensated for the lack of progress in the Southeast. Rice planting was hindered early in the month by soggy conditions in most growing areas, but drier weather toward month's end allowed growers to catch up to their normal planting pace of 65 percent. Winter wheat heading advanced to 30 percent, slightly behind normal. Eighteen percent of the sorghum crop was planted by month's end. After an exceptionally dry winter in the Pacific Northwest, heavy rainfall helped replenish soil moisture but caused some planting delays. May: Dry conditions in the Corn Belt allowed corn planting to continue ahead of the normal pace, reaching 95 percent complete by May 22. However, depletion of soil moisture caused the condition of summer crops in the region to decline. Similarly dry conditions in the central Great Plains caused sharp declines in winter wheat condition. In the Southeast, excessively wet weather in April and early May gave way to drier conditions, and cotton and peanut planting progressed steadily. Cotton planting was 83 percent complete at month's end, 2 points ahead of normal, while peanut planting, also at 83 percent, was 3 points behind the 5-year average. Soybean growers, taking advantage of the dry conditions in the Corn Belt, planted nearly three-fourths of their acreage during the month, advancing to 81 percent complete, 10 points ahead of normal. Planting and emergence of the rice crop progressed at a near-normal pace, with 97 percent of the crop planted by May 29. Seeding of the sorghum crop continued to trail the normal pace, reaching 51 percent complete by month's end. Planting and emergence of small grains continued to outpace the 5-year average, despite planting delays in the Pacific Northwest due to soggy conditions. By month's end, 95 percent of the oat acreage, 85 percent of the barley acreage, and 88 percent of the spring wheat acreage had emerged. Winter wheat heading progressed at the normal pace, but dry weather in the Great Plains caused a decline in crop condition. Sunflower growers seeded their acreage at the normal pace, while sugarbeet planting, at 98 percent complete on May 8, was 19 points ahead of normal. June: Warm, dry weather across the Mississippi Delta, Corn Belt, and Ohio Valley caused rapid deterioration of crop conditions, particularly corn and soybeans. Emergence and development of the crops, however, progressed at or ahead of the normal pace due to the rapid planting pace earlier in the season. Ninety-five percent of the Nation's corn crop had emerged by June 5. Silking, at 11 percent by month's end, was the same as the 5-year average. Soybean emergence reached 96 percent complete on June 26, and by month's end, blooming, at 21 percent, was 6 points ahead of normal. Cotton planting progressed at a near-normal pace, but cool weather in most growing areas hindered development of the crop. By month's end, 55 percent of the crop was at the squaring stage or beyond, 10 points behind normal. Peanut pegging also trailed well behind normal, reaching just 32 percent by month's end, compared with 41 percent for the 5-year average. Sorghum planting progressed steadily, overtaking the normal pace by month's end, but heading, at 15 percent, was slightly behind normal. Winter wheat harvest began slowly as rainfall in the Great Plains hindered fieldwork. However, harvest progressed rapidly as drier conditions prevailed, reaching 62 percent complete by month's end. Emergence and heading of other small grains continued to progress ahead of normal. The rice crop, however, trailed behind normal, reaching just 7 percent headed, compared with the 5-year average of 13 percent. July: Corn and soybean conditions continued to decline as dry weather further depleted soil moisture in the Corn Belt, particularly in Illinois. However, crop development continued to progress well under the dry conditions. Corn acreage silking advanced from 11 percent on July 3 to 92 percent on July 31. Acreage in the dough stage, at 27 percent by month's end, was 4 points ahead of normal. Sorghum heading, behind normal early in the month, progressed rapidly toward month's end and overtook the normal pace, while acreage turning color, at 19 percent, was 2 points behind normal. The winter wheat harvest progressed ahead of normal, reaching 90 percent complete by month's end. Oat growers had harvested 51 percent of their acreage by July 31, while barley and spring wheat harvest was well underway in most States. Rice heading continued to progress behind the normal pace, reaching just 45 percent by month's end. Soybean blooming advanced rapidly during the month, reaching 91 percent on July 31, nine points ahead of normal. Peanut and cotton development continued to lag behind normal due to late planting and delayed early-season progress. At month's end, just 69 percent of the cotton acreage was setting bolls, compared with 75 percent for the 5-year average. August: Hurricane Katrina caused some damage to cotton in the Mississippi Delta, but rainfall associated with its remnants as it moved inland benefited crops in the Corn Belt and Ohio Valley. The corn crop developed rapidly during the month, with acreage at or beyond the dough stage reaching 91 percent by August 28 and acreage dented at 61 percent. Sorghum heading continued to progress ahead of normal, but the percent of the crop turning color, at 48 percent by month's end, was 7 points behind normal. The winter wheat harvest advanced to 96 percent complete by midmonth, the same as the 5-year average. Oat, barley, and spring wheat growers had harvested 98, 78, and 76 percent of their acreage, respectively, by August 28. Heading of the rice crop progressed rapidly under warm conditions, overtaking the normal pace, but harvest trailed behind normal. The soybean crop continued to progress ahead of normal, with 97 percent of the acreage setting pods by month's end. Peanut pegging neared completion by midmonth but still trailed slightly behind normal. The cotton crop continued to trail behind normal, with bolls opening a week behind the normal pace. September: Hurricane Rita came ashore on September 24 near the Louisiana-Texas border, packing 120 mile-per-hour winds, a 10-ft storm surge, and heavy rainfall. The rice crop in the area was already harvested, but sugarcane fields were battered and flooded with salt water. Elsewhere, above-normal temperatures in the eastern two-thirds of the Nation promoted crop development and maturation. Corn acreage in the dent stage reached 96 percent by September 18, and 90 percent of the crop was mature by month's end, 6 points ahead of normal. Harvest, at 26 percent complete, was at the normal pace. Crop condition stabilized during the month and improved slightly as rain from the remnants of Hurricane Rita replenished soil moisture in the Corn Belt. Soybean condition also improved with the rainfall from Rita's remnants, while leaf-dropping and harvest progressed ahead of normal. By month's end, 93 percent of the acreage was dropping leaves or beyond, 8 points ahead of normal, while harvest was 36 percent complete. Cotton condition declined in the Delta due to wind and rain damage from Rita, and in the Southeast due to dry conditions. Development and harvest continued to lag behind normal. Winter wheat growers had begun sowing next year's crop, reaching 54 percent planted by month's end, while emergence progressed at a near-normal pace. Harvest of small grains in northern growing areas continued to progress ahead of normal. On September 11, ninety-five percent of the barley crop and 96 percent of the spring wheat crop had been harvested. The rice harvest, delayed by wet conditions across most growing areas, was 72 percent complete, 5 points behind normal. Harvest of sorghum, sunflower, peanuts, and sugarbeets also trailed behind their respective normal paces. October: Hurricane Wilma cut across the Florida peninsula on October 24, with high winds damaging sugarcane, citrus, and vegetable crops. Elsewhere, dry conditions in the Great Plains and Corn Belt favored summer crop maturation and harvest as well as winter wheat planting, while above-normal temperatures aided winter wheat emergence. Corn producers had harvested 80 percent of their acreage by October 30, six points ahead of normal. The soybean harvest also progressed ahead of normal, reaching 92 percent complete by month's end, compared with 86 percent for the 5-year average. Winter wheat emergence, at 76 percent, was 3 points ahead of the normal pace. Rice harvest accelerated during the month, reaching 97 percent complete by October 23, two points ahead of normal. Sorghum producers, however, continued to trail behind the normal harvest pace, advancing to 71 percent complete by month's end, 3 points behind normal. Cotton development and harvest also continued to trail behind normal. By the end of the month, 53 percent of the acreage had been picked, compared with 55 percent for the normal. The sunflower harvest accelerated toward month's end, pulling slightly ahead of normal, to 69 percent complete. Sugarbeet growers also picked up the pace as cooler weather permitted piling, but harvest remained slightly behind normal. The peanut harvest advanced to 78 percent complete by month's end, 3 points behind normal. November: Above-normal temperatures across most of the Nation favored summer crop harvest and winter wheat emergence, while moderate precipitation in the Corn Belt did not deter final harvest of corn and soybeans. The corn harvest continued to progress ahead of normal, reaching 95 percent complete by midmonth. Sorghum growers, who had trailed behind their normal harvest pace throughout most of the season, had harvested 96 percent of their acreage by November 27, compared with 93 percent for the 5-year average. Winter wheat planting and emergence progressed ahead of the normal pace, with acreage emerged reaching 94 percent by month's end. A lack of rainfall in the southern Great Plains, however, caused condition of the crop to deteriorate. On November 6, ninety-six percent of the soybean crop had been harvested, 5 points ahead of normal. The cotton harvest trailed behind normal early in the month, but advanced rapidly as dry conditions promoted fieldwork and pushed progress to 84 percent complete by month's end, 3 points ahead of normal. Sunflower growers had harvested 97 percent of their acreage by month's end, 4 points ahead of normal. Even the peanut crop, which had trailed behind normal throughout the year, was harvested ahead of the normal pace, reaching 98 percent complete by November 20, compared with 95 percent for the 5-year average. Corn: U.S. grain production is estimated at 11.1 billion bushels, up 1 percent from the November forecast but down 6 percent from 2004. The average U.S. grain yield is estimated at 147.9 bushels per acre, 0.5 bushel below the November forecast and down 12.5 bushels from 2004. The 2005 production and yield estimates are the second largest on record, behind last year. Record yields were realized across the northern tier States including Idaho, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New York, North Dakota, Washington, and Wisconsin while yields in the central and southern Corn Belt and southern Great Plains were down from last year's record highs. Planted area totaled 81.8 million acres, up 1 percent from last year. With the exceptions of Minnesota and South Dakota, planted area was up in the Corn Belt and central and southern Great Plains. Illinois producers planted a record high 12.1 million acres. Area harvested for grain, at 75.1 million acres, is up 2 percent from 2004. Corn silage production is estimated at 106 million tons, down 1 percent from 2004. The U.S. silage yield is estimated at a record high 18.0 tons per acre in 2005, up 0.4 ton from last year. However, area harvested for silage, at 5.92 million acres, is down 3 percent from a year ago. Planting began in early April as mostly dry conditions in the Corn Belt and Great Plains allowed rapid planting progress. Temperatures averaged above normal through most of the month, but turned cooler in the final week. Freezing temperatures in the northern and central Great Plains and Corn Belt toward month's end caused only minimal damage to emerging corn. By May 22, planting was 95 percent complete and ahead of normal in all States, except Colorado, Minnesota, and Texas. Due to the rapid planting pace, the corn crop emerged ahead of normal, reaching 95 percent complete by June 5. Corn crop conditions began to decline in late May as dry weather depleted soil moisture. Warm, dry weather prevailed in June in a band extending from eastern Texas, across the Mississippi Delta, through the central Corn Belt, and into the Ohio Valley and middle Atlantic Coast States. Excessive dryness in these areas caused rapid deterioration of crop conditions. Meanwhile, moderate to heavy precipitation and above-normal temperatures in the northern and central Great Plains benefitted crop development. Temperatures during July were below normal in parts of the central Corn Belt, central and southern Great Plains, and Southeast. Tropical Storm Cindy and Hurricane Dennis spread moderate to heavy rainfall across the Southeast and parts of the Mississippi Delta and Ohio Valley improving crop conditions in those areas. However, precipitation continued to be scarce across the central Great Plains and much of the Corn Belt, lowering crop condition ratings. Hot, dry conditions persisted across the central Corn Belt and central Great Plains into early August, promoting crop development, but causing further declines in crop conditions. Cooler, wetter weather prevailed later in the month which eased dryness and halted the steady decline in crop conditions. During late August and early September, heavy rainfall from Hurricane Katrina and its remnants benefitted the corn crop from the eastern Delta across the eastern Corn Belt, Ohio Valley, and into the Northeast. Later in September, Hurricane Rita weakened to a tropical depression and moved northeast across the central Corn Belt and Northeast, dropping moderate to heavy rain along the way. The precipitation from the two tropical systems, Katrina early in the month and Rita toward month's end, improved corn conditions in the Corn Belt. The crop continued to develop ahead of the normal pace during September, while harvest maintained a near-normal pace. Above normal temperatures and mostly dry conditions across the Corn Belt during the first three weeks of October promoted crop maturation and accelerated harvest progress. Temperatures dropped below normal in the final week, with the first widespread freeze of the season occurring across the region. The mild, mostly dry weather during October favored corn harvest which began the month behind normal. By mid-November, growers had combined 95 percent of their crop, 10 percentage points ahead of last year and 4 points ahead of normal. The November 1 corn objective yield data indicate ear counts for the combined 10 objective yield States (Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin) are down 3 percent from last year's record high. The indicated number of ears per acre is lower than last year in all objective yield States, except South Dakota. Sorghum: Grain production in 2005 is estimated at 394 million bushels, up 2 percent from the November forecast but 13 percent below 2004. Area harvested for grain is estimated at 5.74 million acres, down 12 percent from 2004. Average grain yield, at 68.7 bushels per acre, is up 0.5 bushel from the previous forecast but 0.9 bushel below the 2004 average yield. Grain yields are up from the previous forecast in Colorado, Missouri, and Texas. Silage production is estimated at 4.22 million tons, down 12 percent from 2004. Area cut for silage is 311,000 acres, 12 percent lower than the previous year. Silage yields averaged 13.6 tons per acre, unchanged from last year. Kansas led the Nation in area planted for all purposes and grain production, while Texas led the Nation for silage production. Large decreases in acreage harvested for silage occurred in New Mexico and South Dakota, with declines of 21,000 acres and 20,000 acres, respectively. Acres of sorghum cut for silage increased 20,000 acres in Texas as the demand from dairies in the State continued to increase. Silage yields increased by 3.0 tons per acre in California, Georgia and South Dakota, but yields are down or unchanged from last year in 13 States. Development of the crop lagged behind normal early in the growing season but progress advanced rapidly during October. As of October 30, the crop was 95 percent mature and had advanced ahead of the 5-year average. By the end of October, harvest progress was behind normal in 6 States, but was ahead of last year's pace in all of the major producing States except Arkansas. In Kansas, as a result of rainfall and wet field conditions during the middle of October, only 70 percent of the crop was harvested, which was slightly behind the 5-year average. By the end of November, the crop was 99 percent harvested in Kansas, and had advanced past the 5-year average of 95 percent. Harvest in Texas also lagged behind normal during October and early November as slow crop development and rainfall during October hindered progress. By the end of November, the crop was 90 percent harvested in Texas, which was equal to the 5-year average. Oats: The 2005 production of oats is estimated at 115 million bushels, down fractionally from the Small Grains 2005 Summary and down less than 1 percent from last year. The estimated yield is 63.0 bushels per acre, down 0.1 bushel from September and down 1.7 bushels from the previous year. Area planted to oats is estimated at 4.25 million acres, up fractionally from September and up 4 percent from 2004. Harvested area is 1.82 million acres, 2 percent above last year. These revisions to acreage and production estimates are based on updated survey and administrative data received after the Small Grains 2005 Summary was published on September 30, 2005. States with estimate changes are Maine and Montana. Compared with 2004, area harvested for grain increased 15,000 acres in Minnesota, 25,000 acres in New York, and 20,000 acres in North Dakota. The largest decline occurred in Texas, where area harvested for grain decreased by 50,000 acres. Compared with last year, yields declined in all States except for those in the Southeast, central and northern Great Plains, and the middle Mississippi Valley. In Colorado and Kansas, beneficial growing conditions led to yield increases from last year of 20 bushels and 16 bushels, respectively. The largest declines in yield occurred in the Pacific Northwest, where a very wet spring disrupted the normal development of the crop. Yields in California, Oregon, and Washington were down from 2004, with the largest decline of 19 bushels occurring in Oregon. During the spring months, planting and emergence of the oat crop advanced ahead of normal. By May 1, growers had planted 79 percent of their acreage, 10 points ahead of normal. Emergence, as of May 1, was 51 percent complete which was 5 points ahead of the 5-year average. By mid-May, the oat crop was 96 percent planted, 8 points ahead of normal, and all 9 major producing States were at or ahead of their normal planting pace. Through June, crop development was slightly ahead of normal across most of the northern Great Plains and Corn Belt. As of July 3, eighty-four percent of the oat acreage was headed, 6 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. The crop was most advanced in Iowa and Texas, where 99 percent and 100 percent, respectively, was at or beyond the heading stage. During July, the crop developed and matured at a normal or slightly ahead of normal pace in all major States. By July 31, harvest had begun in all States, and beneficial weather conditions during harvest resulted in oat harvest progressing ahead of normal. As of July 31, fifty-one percent of the oat acreage was harvested, which was 14 percentage points ahead of last year and 8 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. By the end of August, harvest was 98 percent complete in the major producing States, 5 points ahead of normal. Barley: Production totaled 212 million bushels in 2005, down fractionally from the Small Grains 2005 Summary and 24 percent below 2004. Average yield per acre, at 64.8 bushels, is unchanged from September but down 4.8 bushels from the previous year. Area harvested for grain, at 3.27 million acres, is down fractionally from the September estimate and 19 percent below a year ago. Growers planted 3.88 million acres, 1 percent below the September estimate and 14 percent less than in 2004. These changes to acreage and production estimates are based on updated survey and administrative data received after the Small Grains 2005 Summary was published on September 30, 2005. States with estimate changes for the 2005 crop year are Arizona, Maine, and Montana. Barley planting progressed ahead of the normal pace in Montana, North Dakota, and Washington, but excessive soil moisture delayed early planting in Idaho and Minnesota. Progress accelerated to well ahead of normal in Minnesota as drier conditions prevailed in late April and May, but Idaho growers, faced with persistent rainfall, remained behind their normal planting pace throughout the season. On May 8, in the 5 major barley-producing States, planting was 74 percent complete, over a week ahead of the 5-year average pace. Emergence of the crop lagged behind in early May but accelerated in mid-May to well ahead of normal. Likewise, heading fell behind normal in early June but progressed to slightly ahead of normal in the latter half of the month. Harvest progressed ahead of normal from start to finish, with Minnesota and North Dakota growers leading their normal harvest pace by over a week. On September 11, ninety-five percent of the acreage was harvested, 8 percentage points ahead of last year and 3 points ahead of normal. All Wheat: Production totaled 2.10 billion bushels in 2005, up fractionally from the Small Grains 2005 Summary but 2 percent below 2004. Area harvested for grain at 50.1 million acres, is fractionally above the Small Grains 2005 Summary and last year. The U.S. yield is 42.0 bushels per acre, unchanged from the Small Grains 2005 Summary but down 1.2 bushels from a year ago. These changes to acreage and production estimates are based on updated survey and administrative data received after the Small Grains 2005 Summary was published on September 30, 2005. States with estimate changes are as follows: Arizona, California, Florida, Montana, South Dakota, and Utah. Winter Wheat: The 2005 winter wheat production is estimated at 1.50 billion bushels, up fractionally from the Small Grains 2005 Summary but down fractionally from last year. The U.S. yield is 44.4 bushels per acre, 0.9 bushel above last year. Acreage for grain is estimated at 33.8 million acres, fractionally above the Small Grains 2005 Summary but 2 percent below the previous year. These changes to acreage and production estimates are based on updated survey and administrative data received after the Small Grains 2005 Summary was published on September 30, 2005. States with estimate changes are as follows: California, Florida, Montana, South Dakota, and Utah. Hard Red Winter (HRW) harvested acreage is down from last year in the southern portion of the Great Plains States due to fewer planted acres. In Texas, harvested acres were lost partly because of severe weather in the Panhandle during the month of June. Harvested acres in the central and northern portions of the Great Plains, Rocky Mountains, and the Pacific Northwest States are up with the exception of Oregon. The yield potential for most HRW States was high during the fall and early spring because of conditions that were beneficial for crop emergence and development. However, dry conditions during the spring coupled with hot and dry weather during the summer months decreased the yield potential for the crop. Yields are up for all States in the central and southern portion of the Great Plains except Oklahoma. In the Dakotas, yields are down from last year. Overall, HRW production totals 930 million bushels, up 9 percent from last year. Farther west, record high State yields were set in Montana, Idaho, and Nevada. Soft Red Winter (SRW) harvested acreage is below last year because excessively wet conditions last fall resulted in dramatically reduced planted acreage. Wet weather continued through the winter in Arkansas, southern Missouri, and southern Illinois, hampering the crop. The growing conditions for the crop were ideal during the spring and promoted growth and development. The yield potential for the crop was good throughout the growing season and was not affected significantly by the hot and dry weather during the summer months. Yields in the SRW growing area are up in all Sates except Florida and the Delta States. Record high State yields were set in Indiana, Kentucky, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Tennessee's yield tied the record high that was set in 1999. Overall, SRW production is 309 million bushels, down 19 percent from last year. White Winter production, at 260 million bushels, is down 1 percent from last year. Yields in the Pacific Northwest States (Idaho, Oregon, and Washington) are at or above last year's level. In Idaho, excellent irrigated winter wheat yields, combined with good dryland yields resulted in the highest winter wheat yield on record. Other Spring Wheat: Production for 2005 is estimated at 504 million bushels. This is unchanged from the Small Grains 2005 Summary but down 11 percent from last year. Harvested area is 13.6 million acres, up 3 percent from 2004. The U.S. yield is 37.1 bushels per acre, down 6.1 bushels from the record high yield in 2004. The spring wheat crop got off to a good start in the 6 major-producing States, with planting and emergence advancing well ahead of the 5-year average. This rapid progress was due to mild and dry weather during the early spring months. The crop began heading behind the 5-year average in all States except Washington. However, hot and dry weather during July accelerated development and rushed heading ahead of normal. Yield potential for the crop was reduced by these weather conditions. Early harvest progress lagged but quickly advanced ahead of the normal pace because of dry weather during the month of August. The crop was 90 percent harvested by September 4, nine points ahead of the 5-year average. Yields were down in all States except Montana, Wyoming, Utah, and Oregon. The objective yield survey data showed that gross weight per head was down 15 percent from last year. In Wyoming, a record high yield was reported because of excellent irrigated yields. Durum Wheat: Production for 2005 totaled 101 million bushels, up 1 percent from the Small Grains 2005 Summary and 12 percent above last year. Grain area harvested totaled 2.72 million acres, up 1 percent from the Small Grains 2005 Summary and up 15 percent from 2004. The U.S. yield is estimated at 37.2 bushels per acre, 0.8 bushel below 2004. Production is down from last year in all States except North Dakota. In North Dakota, yields are higher than last year due to favorable weather conditions throughout the growing season. Yields in Montana are down from last year because of hot and dry weather during the summer months. These changes to acreage and production estimates are based on updated survey and administrative data received after the Small Grains 2005 Summary was published on September 30, 2005. States with estimate changes are as follows: Arizona and Montana. Rice: Production of rice in 2005 totaled 223 million cwt, down 4 percent from last year's record crop but up 1 percent from the November forecast. Area for harvest, at 3.36 million acres, is up 1 percent from 2004. The average yield for all U.S. rice is estimated at 6,636 pounds per acre, 352 pounds below the 2004 yield. Louisiana established a record high yield as early-season weather conditions were nearly ideal. Most producers in southern Louisiana had completed the first harvest of the crop before the arrival of Hurricane Rita. The average yield for all rice in California was down 1,220 pounds from last year's record high yield. The windy, cool, and wet conditions during planting hampered seedling growth. Also, many California rice growers were challenged with weed infestation during the growing season. Long grain rice yielded 6,493 pounds per acre across the Nation with U.S. production at 178 million cwt. Medium grain rice yielded 7,375 pounds per acre in 2005 with production at 42.4 million cwt. Short grain rice averaged 6,000 pounds per acre and production totaled 3.30 million cwt. Rye: Production for 2005 is estimated at 7.54 million bushels, unchanged from the Small Grains 2005 Summary but down 9 percent from last year. Harvested area totaled 279,000 acres, down 21,000 acres from 2004. The U.S. yield, at 27.0 bushels per acre, is down 0.5 bushel from last year. Oklahoma leads the Nation in production with 1.40 million bushels produced in 2005. Proso Millet: Total 2005 proso millet production is estimated at 13.5 million bushels, down 10 percent from the 2004 production of 15.1 million bushels. Growing conditions for proso millet were generally favorable in 2005 as producers realized higher yields. The average yield is estimated at 26.3 bushels per acre, up 1.0 bushels per acre from last year. Planted area for the 2005 crop is 565,000 acres, 20 percent below last year and harvested area totaled 515,000 acres, down 13 percent from 2004. All Hay: Production of dry hay for 2005 is estimated at 151 million tons, down 1 percent from the October 1 forecast and down 5 percent from the 2004 total. Area harvested, at 61.6 million acres, is down slightly from the October forecast and down less than 1 percent from 2004. The average yield, at 2.44 tons per acre, is down 0.04 ton from October and down 0.11 ton from the previous year. Alfalfa and Alfalfa Mixtures: Hay production in 2005 totaled 75.8 million tons, down slightly from the October 1 forecast but up slightly from 2004. Harvested area, at 22.4 million acres, is 1 percent above October and 3 percent above the previous year. Yields averaged 3.38 tons per acre, down 0.05 ton from the October forecast and down 0.10 ton from the 2004 yield. Area harvested in 2005 is up from last year, but is still the second lowest since 1952. Compared to 2004, States in the northern Great Plains showed the largest increases in harvested acreage from last year. Montana and North Dakota both harvested 350,000 acres more than last year as a result of improved soil moisture conditions from above average rainfall which allowed growers to make multiple cuttings of alfalfa. Meanwhile, the Pacific Coast States all showed a decline in harvested acreage, with Oregon showing the greatest decline, down 80,000 acres from last year. Yields decreased from last year across most of the southern Great Plains and Corn Belt as weather conditions throughout much of the growing season were less favorable than last year. In several of these States, drought conditions throughout much of the growing season limited the number of cuttings and reduced yields. The largest decreases in yields from 2004 occurred in Arkansas and Missouri where yields are down 1.2 tons and 1.1 tons, respectively. All Other Hay: Production in 2005 totaled 74.8 million tons, down 3 percent from the October 1 forecast and down 10 percent from the 2004 total. Area for harvest, at 39.3 million acres, is down 1 percent from the October forecast and 2 percent below last year. The average yield is estimated at 1.91 tons per acre, down 0.15 ton from last year's record high yield. With the exceptions of Florida and Mississippi, harvested acreage decreased across the southern Great Plains States and the Southeast. Large acreage decreases occurred in Missouri, Kansas, and Texas, with harvested area down 400,000 acres, 350,000 acres, and 300,000 acres, respectively. Drier conditions than last year contributed to decreased yields across much of the Corn Belt and southern Great Plains. Yields in Arkansas and Louisiana are down 0.8 ton and 0.7 ton, respectively, as drought conditions for most of the growing season resulted in fewer cuttings and reduced yields. With the exception of Wyoming, yields across the northern Great Plains increased from last year as timely precipitation allowed for multiple cuttings and good yields of other hay. Record high yields were established in California, Mississippi, Nebraska, Nevada, and South Carolina. Forage: Beginning in 2005, eighteen States are included in the forage estimation program, which measures annual production of forage crops, with an emphasis on total alfalfa production. Previously, there were only 8 States in the program. Acres, yield, and production are reported for haylage and greenchop together, and for total forage production. Haylage and greenchop production is converted to 13 percent moisture and combined with dry hay production to derive the total forage production. The total all haylage and greenchop production for the 18 States in the forage program is 29.4 million tons, of which 21.0 million tons were from alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures. Wisconsin, the leading haylage and greenchop producing State, harvested 1.60 million acres of all haylage and greenchop in 2005, of which 1.40 million were alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures. All haylage and greenchop acreage in Wisconsin is unchanged from last year. The 18 State total forage area harvested is 38.2 million acres, including 16.9 million acres from alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures. New Seedings of Alfalfa and Alfalfa Mixtures: Growers seeded 3.29 million acres of alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures during 2005. This is up 18 percent from the 2004 seeded acreage of 2.79 million acres. Seeded acreage increased or was unchanged from last year in all but 6 States. The largest increases from 2004 occurred in Wisconsin, New York, and Minnesota, with increases of 150,000 acres, 70,000 acres, and 55,000 acres, respectively. The new seedings of alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures will normally be harvested for the first time in the year following planting. Peanuts: Production of peanuts in 2005 totaled 4.82 billion pounds, up 12 percent from last year's crop and up 4 percent from the November 1 forecast. Planted area, at 1.66 million acres, is up 16 percent from 2004. Area for harvest totaled 1.63 million acres, up 17 percent from last year. The U.S. yield averaged 2,960 pounds per acre, down 116 pounds from 2004. Production in the Southeast States (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, and South Carolina) totaled 3.39 billion pounds, up 19 percent from 2004. Area planted in the region totaled 1.22 million acres, up 22 percent from 2004. Harvested acres, at 1.20 million, are up 23 percent from last year. The average yield in the Southeast region is 2,826 pounds per acre, 107 pounds below last year. All States in the region have experienced a steady increase in peanut acreage the last 3 years. Virginia-North Carolina production totaled 354 million pounds, down 25 percent from 2004. Planted acres, at 120,000, are down 13 percent from 2004. Harvested acres, at 118,000, are down 14 percent from last year. The average yield in the Virginia-North Carolina region, at 3,000 pounds per acre, is down 442 pounds from 2004. Southwest peanut production (New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas) totaled 1.08 billion pounds, up 12 percent from last year. Planted acres, at 319,000, and harvested acres, at 312,000, are both up 9 percent from 2004. Yields in the region averaged 3,456 pounds per acre, 68 pounds above 2004. Record high yields were attained in Oklahoma and Texas. In Texas, dry weather throughout the growing season resulted in less disease problems than last year and provided for ideal harvest conditions. Canola: Production in 2005 is 1.58 billion pounds, up 18 percent from 2004. The canola yield, at 1,419 pounds per acre, is down 199 pounds from last year's record high yield. Area planted is estimated at 1.16 million acres, 34 percent above last year's acreage. Harvested area, at 1.11 million acres, is up 35 percent from 2004. As the leading State, North Dakota production is estimated at 1.46 billion pounds, up 20 percent from last year due to a 35 percent increase in harvested acreage, the first increase since 2001. Sunflower: The 2005 sunflower production totaled 4.02 billion pounds, up 96 percent from 2004 and 51 percent above 2003. The U.S. average yield per acre increased 342 pounds from 2004 to a record high 1,540 pounds. Planted area, at 2.71 million acres, is 45 percent above last year and the highest area since 2000. Acreage harvested increased 53 percent from last year to 2.61 million acres, the highest acreage since 2000. Production in North Dakota, the leading State, is estimated at 1.75 billion pounds, up 121 percent from 2004. The 2005 yield per acre is a record high, at 1,586 pounds, up 584 pounds from last year. Planted and harvested acres increased from 2004 by 30 and 40 percent, respectively. Record high yields are also recorded in Kansas, Nebraska, and South Dakota this year. U.S. production of oil type sunflower varieties, at 3.17 billion pounds, increased 80 percent from 2004. Harvested acres are up 43 percent from the previous year and the yield increased by 323 pounds. Production of non-oil sunflower varieties, at 841 million pounds, increased 194 percent from last year. Acreage harvested of non-oil varieties is up 101 percent from 2004 and the average yield improved 458 pounds from last year to 1,455 pounds per acre. Soybeans: Production in 2005 totaled 3.09 billion bushels, the second largest U.S. soybean crop in history. This is up 1 percent from the November forecast but 1 percent below the record-setting 2004 crop. The average yield per acre is estimated at a record high 43.3 bushels, 0.6 bushel above the November forecast and 1.1 bushels above the 2004 final yield. Planted area for the Nation, at 72.1 million acres, is down 4 percent from 2004. Soybean growers harvested a total of 71.4 million acres, also down 4 percent from last year. Yields are up dramatically from last year across most of the northern third of the U.S. soybean-growing area, reaching record highs in 5 States. In Minnesota, North Dakota, and Wisconsin, more favorable growing conditions prevailed in 2005 compared to the cool, wet growing conditions and an early frost that stunted the late-planted 2004 crop. The favorable growing conditions contributed to yield increases of 14, 12, and 9.5 bushels per acre, respectively. In the Atlantic Coast States, dry growing conditions kept yields below last year. Yields were down slightly from last year's record and near record yields from the eastern Corn Belt, down to the Delta, and in the southern Great Plains. From Illinois southwest to Texas, soybeans suffered from a lack of moisture in July and early August. The Missouri average yield is down 8 bushels per acre from the 2004 record high yield due to moisture coming too late to boost the number of pods, though the moisture did improve pod weights. Planting of the 2005 soybean crop started off slightly behind normal across most of the Corn Belt and Central Great Plains, but dry conditions allowed for rapid progress through the month of May. Wet weather slowed planting progress in Minnesota and the Dakotas, where some producers struggled well into June to get their soybeans planted. Soybean conditions deteriorated quickly during June as warm and dry weather conditions prevailed across the Mississippi Delta, Corn Belt, and Ohio Valley. However, due to rapid planting earlier in the season, emergence and development of the crop progressed at or ahead of normal. Soybean emergence reached 96 percent on June 26, and by month's end blooming, at 21 percent, was 6 points ahead of normal. Crop conditions continued to decline in July as dry weather depleted soil moisture in the Corn Belt, particularly in Illinois, southwest through Missouri, and down to Texas. The soybean crop progress continued ahead of normal, accelerated by the dry conditions. During July, soybean blooming advanced rapidly, reaching 91 percent on July 31, nine points ahead of normal. As Hurricane Katrina moved inland, the rainfall associated with its remnants benefitted the soybean crop in the Ohio Valley and in the central and eastern Corn Belt. The soybean crop progressed ahead of the normal pace with 97 percent of the acreage setting pods or beyond by the end of August. September's above normal temperatures in the eastern two-thirds of the Nation promoted soybean crop development and maturation. Conditions stabilized during the month and improved slightly as rain from the remnants of Hurricane Rita replenished soil moisture in the Corn Belt. Soybean leaf-dropping and harvest progressed ahead of normal. By month's end, harvest was 36 percent complete, 6 points ahead of average. Dry conditions in the Great Plains and Corn Belt favored soybean maturation and harvest. Soybean harvest continued ahead of normal, reaching 92 percent complete by the end of October, compared with 86 percent for the average. Moderate November precipitation in the Corn Belt did not deter the final soybean harvest and, by November 6, ninety-six percent of the crop had been harvested, 5 points ahead of normal. Final average pod counts from the objective yield survey were considerably lower than last year in the southern objective yield States, Arkansas and Missouri, but were much improved from 2004 in the northern States, Minnesota and the Dakotas. The 2005 average final pod count in Iowa and Ohio, at 1,970 and 1,981 pods respectively, were the highest on record. Flaxseed: Production of flaxseed in 2005 totaled 19.7 million bushels, up 90 percent from the previous year to the highest level since 1970. The average U.S. yield is estimated at 20.6 bushels per acre, up 0.3 bushels from 2004. Planted area for the 2005 crop is estimated at 983,000 acres, up 88 percent from last year. Harvested area, at 955,000 acres, is 87 percent above 2004. Both planted and harvested acres are the highest since 1977. In North Dakota, the leading flaxseed State, production totaled 18.2 million bushels, up 85 percent from 2004. Growers planted 890,000 acres, an increase of 82 percent from the previous year. The average yield in North Dakota is estimated at 21.0 bushels per acre, up 0.5 bushels from last year. Planting began in late April, ahead of the average pace, as dry, warm conditions allowed growers to make good progress. Crop development was also well ahead of last year and average due to above normal temperatures during the growing season. Harvest began in mid-August and progressed near the average pace until early September when it moved ahead of the 5-year average. By October 2, harvest was essentially complete, more than a week ahead of normal. Safflower: Production of safflower in 2005, at 193 million pounds, increased less than 1 percent from 2004. Growers planted 165,000 acres in 2005, a decrease of 6 percent from last year, while harvested area is 160,000 acres, up 1,000 acres from the previous year. The yield, at 1,203 pounds per acre, decreased 1 pound from 2004. California producers led the nation, producing 100 million pounds of safflower. This is the first time State-level estimates have been published in the Crop Production annual summary. Other Oilseeds: Mustard seed production in 2005 declined 38 percent from last year to 35.1 million pounds, continuing the downward trend that began in 2002. Planted area, at 49,000 acres, is down 33 percent and harvested area, at 44,600 acres, is down 35 percent from 2004. Mustard seed yields averaged 787 pounds per acre, 32 pounds below a year ago. Rapeseed production decreased as well, down 72 percent from 2004 to 3.00 million pounds. Growers planted 2,400 acres of rapeseed in 2005 and harvested 2,000 acres, down 6,300 and 5,800 acres, respectively. The average yield is 1,500 pounds per acre for 2005, up 106 pounds from last year. Cotton: Upland cotton production is estimated a record high 23.1 million bales, up fractionally from the December 1 forecast and 2 percent above last year's production. The U.S. yield for upland cotton is estimated at 824 pounds per acre, unchanged from last month but 19 pounds less than last year's record high yield. Harvested area, at 13.4 million acres, increased marginally from last month and is 5 percent above 2004. Upland planted acreage is estimated at 13.9 million acres, 4 percent above last year. Planting was completed in the Southeastern region by late May. During the summer months, Tropical Storms Cindy and Arlene along with Hurricane Dennis brought moderate to heavy rains and provided much needed moisture in some areas. The hot, humid days at the end of July allowed the crop to make excellent progress but maturation of the crop lagged behind normal throughout most of the season. During the first part of September, the Carolinas received much needed moisture from Hurricane Ophelia. Harvest was in full swing by late October and virtually complete by late November. Objective yield survey data show Georgia's bolls per acre are the highest on record. Producers in the Delta States had ideal planting conditions with planting completed by the end of May. Throughout the summer months, the Delta States were plagued with excessively dry conditions with the Bootheel of Missouri being the hardest hit. In late August, Hurricane Katrina made landfall along the Louisiana and Mississippi border bringing 140 mph winds and excessive rain but the brunt of the storm missed the majority of the cotton producing area in the southern Delta but provided much needed moisture in the northern Delta. Harvest got underway in the southern Delta in mid August, but was virtually stopped in late August from the shortage of diesel fuel. Limited harvest begin again in early September but producers in Louisiana and Mississippi received heavy rains during late September from Hurricane Rita which continued to slow harvest progress. During early and mid October, producers had excellent harvest weather and by the end of the month progress was ahead of normal throughout the region with harvest complete by the end of the month. Objective yield data show Mississippi's boll weight to be the highest in the last 10 years and the boll weight in Arkansas to be the second highest in the last 10 ten years. While in Louisiana, bolls per acre were the highest in the last 10 years. Planting was virtually complete in south Texas by the end of April but getting underway in the Texas Panhandle, Kansas, and Oklahoma. By mid-June, nearly all cotton in the Texas Panhandle was planted. Due to lack of rain and the high temperatures, the dryland acres in south Texas experienced heat stress. The Texas Panhandle, Kansas, and Oklahoma, producers received hot weather and timely rains which allowed the crop to develop in mostly good to excellent condition throughout the growing season. Harvest was complete by early September in south Texas but did not get into full swing in the Panhandle until around mid-October. In Kansas and Oklahoma, harvest was complete by late November. Data from the objective yield survey showed Texas bolls per acre and boll weight to be second largest in the last 10 years. A record yield of 716 pounds per acres was set in Texas, surpassing last year's record of 694 pounds per acre. Arizona and California upland cotton growers experienced rain and below normal soil temperatures which delayed planting. Due to the later planting, crop development lagged behind normal throughout most of the season. In late September, harvest got underway in Arizona and by late October California was in full swing but still behind normal. Objective yield data show California bolls per acre to be slightly above the 5 year average and the boll weight to be the second lowest in the last 10 years. American-Pima production is estimated at 655,000 bales, down 3 percent from last month and 12 percent from last year. The U.S. Pima yield is estimated at 1,171 pounds per acre, down 50 pounds from last month and 272 pounds from last year. Producers planted 270,400 acres of Pima cotton, up 8 percent from last year. Harvested area is estimated at 268,600 acres, up 3,600 acres from last month and up 8 percent from last year. All cotton ginnings totaled 20,114,150 running bales prior to January 1, compared with 18,924,750 running bales ginned on the same date last year and 16,882,550 running bales in 2003. Cottonseed: Production for 2005, based on a 3-year average lint-seed ratio, is expected to total 8.50 million tons up 3 percent from last year's production of 8.24 million tons. Tobacco: U.S. tobacco production in 2005 totaled 640 million pounds, virtually unchanged from the October 1 forecast but 27 percent below 2004. Growers harvested 298,020 acres in 2005, three percent below the previous forecast and down 27 percent from last year. This is the lowest harvested acres on record. The previous low of 369,000 acres was in 1868. Acreage of the 2005 crop was heavily impacted by the Fair and Equitable Tobacco Reform Act of 2004 which eliminated the tobacco quota program and price supports. Yield per acre averaged 2,147 pounds, a 64 pound increase from the October forecast but down 14 pounds from 2004. Flue-cured production is estimated at 384 million pounds, down less than 1 percent from the October 1 forecast and 26 percent below last year. Harvested acres totaled 175,500, down 2 percent from the previous forecast and 23 percent below 2004. Flue-cured yields averaged 2,185 pounds, an increase of 35 pounds from the October forecast but down 98 pounds from a year ago. Tomato Spotted Wilt Virus was a major problem for the southernmost flue-cured producing States. Growers in both Florida and Georgia reported disease problems which lowered yields and in some cases destroyed entire fields. All flue-cured tobacco States experienced yields that were lower than 2004. Burley production totaled 195 million pounds in 2005, up 2 percent from the October 1 forecast but 33 percent below a year ago. Growers harvested 100,100 acres in 2005, five percent below the previous forecast and down 35 percent from 2004. Yield per acre averaged 1,952 pounds, up 126 pounds from the October 1 forecast and 44 pounds above last year. In Kentucky, the largest burley State, growers experienced a variety of weather conditions. While some growers experienced excellent growing conditions, others experienced hail and flood damage. Sugarbeets: Production is estimated at 27.7 million tons, 1 percent above the November 1 forecast but 8 percent below last year's production. Growers in the 12 sugarbeet-producing States harvested 1.24 million acres, 5 percent less than last year's 1.31 million acre. Yield is estimated at 22.3 tons per acre, 0.3 ton above November but 0.7 ton below the 2004 yield. Nationwide, planted and harvested acreage decreased for the third consecutive year, to their lowest levels since 1987 and 1986, respectively. Harvested acreage was down from 2004 in all States, except Colorado and Wyoming, with increases of 800 and 300 acres, respectively. Idaho growers harvested 25,000 fewer acres than last year, while Michigan's harvested area is down 15,000 acres. In Minnesota, soggy field conditions at harvest time resulted in an unusually high abandonment. Sugarbeet planting progressed at a near-normal pace in the 4 major producing States, but freeze, wind, and flood damage forced some replanting. Initial harvest was delayed somewhat due to warm weather, but as the cooler conditions favored piling, the pace accelerated to near normal. Growing conditions were favorable in most areas, and abundant irrigation water supplies in the Pacific Northwest resulted in excellent yields. Record yields of 31.6 and 40.6 tons per acre were set in Oregon and Washington, respectively, while Idaho's 28.3 tons per acre is the fourth largest yield on record. Sugarcane: Production of sugarcane for sugar and seed is estimated at 27.9 million tons, 3 percent above the December forecast but 4 percent below last year's 29.0 million tons. Area harvested and to be harvested for sugar and seed is estimated at 922,900 acres for the 2005 crop year, unchanged from the December forecast but down 2 percent from 2004. Yield is estimated at 30.2 tons per acre, 1.0 ton above last month, but 0.7 ton below last year's yield. Three major hurricanes impacted the sugarcane crop during 2005 - Katrina and Rita in Louisiana and Wilma in Florida. Significant acreage was lost to wind damage and storm surge, while yield was depressed on the remaining acreage in the paths of the hurricanes. Louisiana's yield of 23.0 tons per acre is an improvement over previous assessments of hurricane damage to the 2005 crop but is still the lowest yield since 1993. At 33.1 tons per acre, unchanged from December, Florida's sugarcane yield is the lowest since 1996. Due to poor yields in the 2 top-producing States, the US yield fell to its lowest level since the 1934 estimate, the first to include Hawaii's high-yielding crop. Dry Beans: U.S. dry edible bean production is estimated at 27.2 million cwt for 2005, up less than 1 percent from the December forecast and 53 percent above last year. Harvested acreage is estimated at 1.56 million acres, virtually unchanged from the last forecast but 28 percent above 2004. The average U.S. yield is estimated at 1,742 pounds per acre, an increase of 11 pounds from the December forecast and 283 pounds above a year ago. Production is up from 2004 in 15 of the 17 major producing States. Most notable is a 111 percent increase from last year in Minnesota. Production is up from a year ago for large lima, baby lima, navy, great northern, pinto, light red kidney, dark red kidney, pink, small red, blackeye, and small and large chickpeas. Production decreased from last year for small white, cranberry, and black. Production in North Dakota is estimated at 8.59 million cwt, 81 percent above 2004. The average yield, at 1,520 pounds per acre, is up 520 pounds from last year. Harvested acres, at 565,000, increased 19 percent. Harvest was essentially complete by mid-October, slightly ahead of average and over two weeks ahead of last year. In Michigan, production is estimated at 3.91 million cwt, 24 percent above last year. Harvested area, at 230,000 acres, is 24 percent above 2004, while yield of 1,700 pounds per acre is unchanged from last season. The Thumb area of Michigan received near normal rainfall for the growing season and harvest was mostly completed by mid-October. Nebraska growers produced 3.87 million cwt of dry beans, 63 percent more than last year. The average yield, at 2,250 pounds per acre, is a record high and 90 pounds above the previous year. Production in Minnesota more than doubled due to a 35 percent increase in harvested acres and better growing conditions than last year. The average yield, at 1,800 pounds per acre, is 650 pounds above last year. Higher yields in western and central Minnesota more than offset lower yields in the northwest caused by wet conditions during the summer. Production increased 84 percent in South Dakota, 83 percent in Colorado, 80 percent in Kansas, 66 percent in Texas, and 64 percent in Utah from last year. Oregon is 52 percent above last year, Wyoming is 43 percent higher, Washington increased 30 percent, and California is up 20 percent from 2004. Production in both New York and Idaho is 14 percent above last year. Montana and New Mexico are the only 2 producing States that decreased production from 2004. Montana decreased 1 percent and New Mexico is 11 percent below 2004. Lentils: Production of lentils in Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, and Washington is estimated at 5.16 million cwt for 2005, up 1 percent from the November 1 forecast and 23 percent above 2004. Planted area, at 450,000 acres, remains unchanged from the previous forecast but is 30 percent above the previous season. Harvested area, at 439,000 acres, is 2 percent above the November 1 forecast and 33 percent above last year. Average yield per acre, at 1,176 pounds, is 5 pounds below November's forecast and 95 pounds below last year. Montana's production, at 1.87 million cwt, is up 85 percent from a year ago. The State experienced warm temperatures with limited moisture from April to the middle of May. From July to August, Montana had above normal temperatures with limited precipitation compared to a year ago. North Dakota's production is estimated at 1.97 million cwt, up 53 percent from 2004. Above normal daytime temperatures and dry conditions during most of April allowed producers to plant early. Above normal temperatures and mostly adequate soil moisture during most of the growing season promoted good growing conditions. Mostly dry conditions and below normal temperatures occurred during harvest, which was completed by early September. Production in Washington, at 756,000 cwt, is down 32 percent from 2004. Storms in some areas caused piles of swathed lentils to be swept away. Also, drought conditions early in the season contributed to lower yields. Idaho's production, at 567,000 cwt, is 26 percent below last year. Producers experienced unstable weather throughout the 2005 season in Idaho's lentil growing area. Wind, rain, hail, aphids, and viruses adversely affected yield and quality. Wrinkled Seed Peas: Growers of wrinkled seed peas in Idaho and Washington produced 755,000 cwt in 2005, down 16 percent from the 2004 production of 899,000 cwt. Production in Idaho, at 140,000 cwt, is down 20 percent from 2004. Production in Washington, at 615,000 cwt, decreased 15 percent from the 2004 production of 725,000 cwt. Dry Edible Peas: Production of dry edible peas in Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, and Washington is estimated at 14.0 million cwt for 2005, up 1 percent from the November 1 forecast and up 23 percent from 2004. Area harvested, at 765,900 acres, is up 1 percent from the previous forecast and 51 percent above last year. Average yield, at 1,828 pounds per acre, increased 15 pounds from the November 1 forecast but is 421 pounds below 2004. Production in Montana and North Dakota is up 73 percent, and 41 percent, respectively, from last season. Production in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington declined by 36, 52, and 36 percent, respectively, from a year ago. In North Dakota, above normal daytime temperatures and dry conditions during most of April allowed producers to plant early season crops ahead of the 5-year average pace. Planting of the dry edible pea crop began mid-April and was completed by the third week in May. Mostly adequate soil moisture supplies existed in the dry pea growing area during the majority of the growing season. However, above normal rainfall in June and above normal temperatures during the end of June and most of July stressed crop development and promoted some plant diseases. Mostly dry conditions and below normal temperatures occurred during harvest. Harvest began in late July and was completed by the first week of September. Montana received warm temperatures with limited moisture from April to mid-May. During July and August the State received above normal temperatures with limited precipitation compared to a year ago. In Idaho, wind, rain, hail, aphids, and viruses adversely affected yield and quality. In Oregon, yields are down due to lack of moisture in the spring needed for crop development. Washington experienced storms during harvest which caused piles of swathed peas to blow away. Early drought conditions and storms reduced dry pea yields. Austrian Winter Peas: Production of Austrian winter peas in Idaho, Montana, and Oregon for the 2005 season is estimated at 307,000 cwt, down 5 percent from the November 1 forecast but 5 percent above 2004. Area harvested, at 24,500 acres, is 11 percent below the previous forecast but unchanged from last season. Average yield, at 1,253 pounds per acre, increased 75 pounds from the November 1 forecast and is 65 pounds above 2004. Idaho's Austrian winter pea crop was affected by wind, rain, hail, aphids, and viruses which reduced yield and lowered quality. July and August temperatures in Montana were above normal with adequate precipitation. Winter Potatoes: The final 2005 winter potato production is estimated at 4.89 million cwt, down 3 percent from the April forecast but 2 percent above 2004. Harvested area of 19,800 acres is unchanged from the April 1 forecast but 7 percent more than last year. The average yield of 247 cwt per acre is down 9 cwt from the April forecast and 13 cwt below 2004. California's production, at 3.50 million cwt, is 8 percent above last season. Florida's production, at 1.39 million cwt, is down 11 percent from a year ago. Spring Potatoes: Production for 2005 is revised to 18.7 million cwt, up 3 percent from the May forecast but 17 percent below 2004. Harvested area totaled 66,700 acres, down 8 percent from a year ago. The average yield of 281 cwt per acre decreased 33 cwt from 2004. Spring potato production in Arizona and California decreased 33 percent and 26 percent, respectively, from 2004. Florida's crop is down 15 percent from the previous year and production in Texas is 7 percent below 2004. North Carolina is the only spring potato State that increased production from last year, up 6 percent. North Carolina growers increased planted and harvested acres due to more processing contracts being available. The increase in harvested acres more than offset a decrease in yield. Summer Potatoes: Growers produced 16.2 million cwt of summer potatoes in 2005, up 1 percent from the September forecast but down 11 percent from a year ago. Harvested area, at 48,600 acres, is down 10 percent from last year. The average yield of 334 cwt per acre is 6 cwt below last year's record high yield of 340 cwt. Summer production decreased 27 percent from last year in Illinois, 26 percent in Maryland, and 14 percent in both Virginia and California. Production decreased 11 percent in Alabama, 12 percent in Colorado, 10 percent in New Jersey, and 4 percent in Texas from 2004. Kansas and Missouri are the only 2 States where summer potato production increased from last year with 6 percent and 3 percent, respectively. Fall Potatoes: Production of fall potatoes for 2005 is estimated at 381 million cwt, virtually unchanged from the December forecast but down 7 percent from last year. Area harvested, at 949,500 acres, is down less than 1 percent from December and 7 percent below last year. The average yield is estimated at 401 cwt per acre, 1 cwt below December but unchanged from last year's record high. Western States production is estimated at 268 million cwt, virtually unchanged from the December forecast but down 5 percent from last year. Acreage harvested, at 599,800 acres, decreased 7 percent from last year, but the average yield of 446 cwt per acre is up 8 cwt from 2004. Growing conditions throughout the Western States were generally favorable. Idaho's potato production, forecast at 117 million cwt, is 11 percent below last year and the lowest since 1989. Planted and harvested acres in Idaho are the lowest since 1986. Washington's average yield of 620 cwt per acre is 30 cwt above last year and 20 cwt above the previous record high established in 2000. Production, at 95.5 million cwt, is 2 percent above last year. Colorado's production decreased 6 percent from 2004 but yields are up 15 cwt per acre. A long growing season and adequate irrigation water allowed potatoes to size larger. Oregon's production is up 11 percent from last year due to the record high yield of 594 cwt per acre, 51 cwt above the previous record high established in 2000. In Montana, production is down 3 percent but the crop quality is reported to be good. In California, production is down 11 percent. Cool weather in late spring and early summer led to smaller potatoes and lower yields. Production in Nevada decreased 19 percent from 2004, while New Mexico's production increased 3 percent from last year. Central States production is estimated at 89.0 million cwt, down 1 percent from the December forecast and 11 percent below last year. Harvested area, estimated at 259,500 acres, is 8 percent below a year ago, and the average yields of 343 cwt per acre are down 12 cwt from a year ago. Wisconsin growers produced 8 percent less than last year. This decrease is due to fewer potatoes per hill resulting in a 25 cwt per acre drop in yield. North Dakota's production is down 23 percent due in part to a 19 percent decrease in harvested acres. Flooding in the major potato producing region caused growers to abandon a larger amount of acres than normal. Yields are also down from last year. Minnesota production is 7 percent below last year, Nebraska is down 11 percent, and Ohio production is 20 percent below last year. Michigan is the only State in the Central Region that produced more potatoes than last year. Production increased by 2 percent. Good weather throughout the growing season provided excellent planting and growing conditions. Decent fall weather allowed harvest to progress at a normal pace and led to good storage conditions. Eastern States production is estimated at 24.4 million cwt, down less than 1 percent from the December forecast and 12 percent below last year. Area for harvest totaled 90,200 acres, 5 percent below last year. Average yield, at 271 cwt per acre, is down 23 cwt from last season. Drought conditions during the summer in Maine, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island reduced yields. Production in Maine decreased 17 percent from last year, 22 percent in Massachusetts, and 28 percent for Rhode Island. New York growers increased production 1 percent from 2004 and Pennsylvania's production is 4 percent above the previous season. All Potatoes: Total 2005 U.S. potato production from all four seasons is estimated at 421 million cwt, down 8 percent from both the 2004 and 2003 crops. Harvested area, at 1.08 million acres, is down 7 percent from last year and 13 percent lower than two years ago. The average yield, at 388 cwt per acre, is 3 cwt below last year but 21 cwt above 2003. By season, fall production is 7 percent below the previous year, summer is down 11 percent, spring decreased 17 percent, but winter is up 2 percent from 2004. Sweet Potatoes: Production of sweet potatoes in 2005 is estimated at 15.7 million cwt, down 2 percent from last season and 1 percent below 2003. A decrease in harvested acres more than offset an increase in yield. Growers harvested 87,800 acres, down 5 percent from last year. Yield per acre, at 179 cwt, is up 5 cwt from the record high yield in 2004. Production decreased 67 percent in Texas, 24 percent in Virginia, 14 percent in North Carolina, 7 percent in New Jersey, and 1 percent in Alabama. Production increased 41 percent in South Carolina, 15 percent in Mississippi, 9 percent in California, and 6 percent in Louisiana. In North Carolina and Virginia planting was later than normal and a dry late summer and early fall reduced tuber size. Excess rain in Alabama caused some growers to abandon acres and caused some rotting. Severe drought conditions in Texas prevented some growers from planting and caused lower yields. In Mississippi, growing conditions were ideal and dry weather during harvest allowed for timely completion. In Louisiana, dry conditions throughout the growing season decreased crop quality. Although planting started late in California due to rain, the crop progressed very well with above average yields. Peppermint Oil: Production of peppermint oil in 2005 is estimated at 6.98 million pounds, down 4 percent from last year. Harvested area is estimated at 76,000 acres, down 3 percent from 2004. Growers in Oregon, Washington, and Wisconsin decreased their acreage 6 percent, 4 percent, and 5 percent, respectively, while Idaho, Indiana, and Michigan harvested acreage remained unchanged. The U.S. average yield is 92 pounds of oil per acre, unchanged from last year. Spearmint Oil: Spearmint oil production is estimated at 1.93 million pounds for 2005, up 5 percent from last year and 9 percent above 2003. Harvested area is estimated at 17,700 acres, up 12 percent from both last year and 2003. Average yield is estimated at 109 pounds of oil per acre, down 7 pounds from last year and 4 pounds below 2003. Growers in Oregon and Washington increased their acreage 60 percent and 11 percent, respectively, while Idaho, Indiana, Michigan, and Wisconsin harvested acreage remained unchanged from last year. Hops: Production for Idaho, Oregon, and Washington in 2005 totaled 52.9 million pounds, down 4 percent from the 2004 crop of 55.2 million pounds and 3 percent below the 2003 production of 54.6 million pounds. Idaho's production increased 4 percent. Production in Washington and Oregon dropped 5 percent and 6 percent, respectively, from a year ago. Acreage increased in all 3 States in 2005. Washington showed a 9 percent acreage increase. Idaho and Oregon were both up 1 percent. Average yields declined in Washington to 1,871 pounds per acre, 266 pounds below last year. In Oregon, yields dropped 126 pounds to 1,560 pounds per acre. Idaho yields averaged 1,640 pounds per acre, 52 pounds more than a year ago. Washington growers produced 75 percent of the U.S. hop crop for 2005. Zeus, Columbus/TomahawkTM, Galena, and Willamette were the leading varieties in Washington, accounting for 70 percent of the State's hop crop. In Oregon, Willamette and Nugget were the major varieties, accounting for 74 percent of the State's hop production. Maple Syrup: The 2005 U.S. maple syrup production totaled 1.24 million gallons, down 18 percent from 2004 and 1 percent below 2003. Maple syrup production decreased in all States except Pennsylvania which experienced a slight increase in production. Vermont led all States in production with 410,000 gallons, a decrease of 18 percent from last season. Vermont syrup production accounted for 52 percent of New England's production and 33 percent of the United States production. Maine's production, second in the United States at 265,000 gallons, decreased 9 percent from 2004. Production in New York, at 222,000 gallons, is 13 percent below 2004. Production is down 50 percent in Wisconsin, 31 percent in New Hampshire, 27 percent in Michigan, 20 percent in Massachusetts, 12 percent in Ohio, and 9 percent in Connecticut from last season. Pennsylvania, the only State with increased production, is up 2 percent from 2004. An increase in taps in most States was more than offset by a decrease in yield causing production to decline. Temperatures in the maple syrup producing States were generally unfavorable for good sap flow and syrup production in 2005. Most of these States experienced weather that was too cold for sap flow. Coffee: Hawaii coffee production is estimated at 6.40 million pounds (parchment basis) for the 2005-06 season, up 14 percent from the previous crop year. Harvested area is estimated at 6,100 acres, up 5 percent from the 2004-05 season. Producers on the island of Hawaii, where Kona is the major growing area, expect to harvest 3.60 million pounds, up 13 percent from the previous season. Coffee production from the islands of Kauai, Maui, Molokai, and Oahu is forecast at 2.80 million pounds for the 2005-06 season, up 17 percent from last season. Spring rains, which trigger flowering, arrived late in some areas and have delayed crop maturity. Estimates of coffee production in Puerto Rico are published in this report for the first time. Puerto Rico's production for the 2005-06 season is estimated at 20.3 million pounds (parchment basis), up 10 percent from the previous season. Harvested area is estimated at 42,000 acres, down 5 percent from last season. Yield, at 485 pounds per acre, is 65 pounds above last season. Improved growing conditions have allowed yields to rebound from the damage to last year's crop caused by Tropical Storm Jeanne. Cool weather in February and March delayed and condensed bloom to one small early bloom and one large second bloom instead of the normal three or four blooming periods. This caused the crop to mature at one time, stressing an already limited labor supply. Quality is expected to be higher than normal due to this more uniform maturity. Taro: Hawaii taro production is estimated at 4.00 million pounds, down 23 percent from the 2004 crop and the lowest production on record. Area in crop, at 360 acres, is down 10 acres from 2004. Heavy winter rains periodically flooded taro fields and slowed corm development. Producers also reported intermittent losses from Apple snails and taro Pocket Rot disease. Ginger Root: Hawaii ginger root production for the 2004-05 season is 5.10 million pounds, down 15 percent from the previous season. Harvested area is 120 acres, down 20 percent from a year ago. Average yield, at 42,500 pounds per harvested acre, is up 6 percent from the previous season. Growers report this crop was challenged by less than ideal winter weather and isolated incidences of bacterial wilt.
