Foreword

As Minnesota’s new agriculture commissioner, I’m pleased to introduce the 2019 Minnesota Agricultural Statistic Bulletin from the

National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS).

Agricultural crops and livestock were among Minnesota’s first industries and today we remain a leader in ag and food production.

Farming has seen some recent challenges and yet Minnesota remains a powerful ag state – our farm and food sector generates

approximately $112 billion annually to the state’s economy and supports more than 431,000 jobs.

When you look at the numbers, I think you’ll agree that Minnesota’s agriculture industry has a lot to be proud of. We rank 5th nationally

in total ag production and we rank in the Top 10 in more than 20 ag commodities including turkeys, hogs, soybeans, corn, barley, honey,

and potatoes. I would also note that Minnesota is above the national average in the percentage of young farmers (10.3% vs 9.4%) and

in the percentage of women farmers (31% vs 27%).

The Minnesota Department of Agriculture and NASS have a longtime partnership in producing this accurate, and useful, annual

statistical bulletin. It contains valuable information on farm income, crop and livestock production, export trends, and other data needed

by farmers, agribusinesses, and policy decision-makers all across the agricultural sector.

Thanks to NASS and to all those who respond to the annual surveys for their commitment to this important work.

Thom Petersen, Commissioner

Minnesota Department of Agriculture

The 2019 Minnesota Agricultural Statistics bulletin presents the statistics for 2018 from the United States Department of Agriculture’s

National Agricultural Statistics Service in cooperation with the Minnesota Department of Agriculture. This publication documents

Minnesota’s farmers’ efforts in feeding the nation and the world. Production from our farmers has Minnesota ranked in the top ten

leading states for several commodities. Agriculture plays a key role in the Minnesota economy and helps make Minnesota a great place

to live and grow.

These statistics provide a voice for farmers and also provide facts to build for the future of agriculture. I say “Thank you” to the farmers

and agribusiness people and County FAC members who participate in USDA NASS surveys. Your participation allows your voice to

be heard and your future to be shaped on facts for all agriculture. As always, USDA NASS counts agriculture because “Agriculture

Counts”!

2018 Weather Summary

Crop planting in 2018 started out well behind the normal pace for all crops due to lingering cool weather, snow

cover and additional precipitation. These persistent cool temperatures and wet conditions hindered field activity

until mid-May when small grains planting progress caught up to the five-year average. However, row crop

planting remained behind normal until late May. The week ending May 20 had 5.7 days suitable for fieldwork,

allowing planting to advance rapidly. Rainfall amounts were sufficient throughout April and May. The week

ending June 24 saw the best pasture and range condition of the season with 81 percent rated in good to excellent

condition. Soil moisture shortages began to be reported in late July. The lowest moisture supplies were reported

for the week ending August 19, 2018 when 33 percent of the state was reported short to very short on topsoil

moisture. Small grain harvest was underway by late July. Dry conditions allowed for rapid harvest in late August.

Soybean harvest began in early September, with corn for grain harvest not far behind, starting in mid-September.

Wet conditions throughout September and early October limited farmers’ ability to complete fieldwork, with only

1.1 days suitable for fieldwork during the week ending October 14. Conditions improved in late October,

averaging just over 4 days suitable for fieldwork per week through Thanksgiving. During this time, farmers made

progress on harvest and fall fieldwork as conditions allowed. Most farmers were able to complete harvest and

field activities by the final week of November.
