TO THE STATE DIRECTOR OF AGRICULTURE AND

THE HONORABLE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS

Section 65.5 of the California Agricultural Code require s thatthe Agricultural Commissioner compile a report covering conditions,acreage, production and value of the agricultural products of his county.This is the twenty-seventh annual report published by this county.

Approximately one hundred commercial crops are covered in

this report and, for your easy reference, they are segregated as totheir commercial use wherever possible.

Acreages of permanent crops are reported in actual bearingacreages only and other crops are reported in actual harvested acre-age. The prices are reported on an F. O. B. basis. Cost of produc-tion, harvesting, packing and other handling costs should be deducted

to arrive at a true farm value.

In keeping with the two year reporting system, both the 1959and the 1960figures are shown in this report. Some of the figures-fromthe ]959 report have been revised and errors corrected where found.The new entries have been made in this report.

Copies of this report are sent to a number of persons in otherstates~ to federal, state and county agencies throughout the UnitedStates and to an increasing number of organizations and individualswithin the state. The members of this department have made everyeffort to make this report as accurate as possible by checking our fig-ures with every known source of reliable information.

I wish to express my sincere appreciation to all who have as-sisted my inspectors and deputies by furnishing necessary information

to them, which has made the ccmpilationof this report possible.

Re spectfully submitted,

CROPS SHOWING SIGNIFICANT CHANGES

Field Crops

Barley--Acreage increased by 10~000 acres.

same, but price was down $I.00 per ton.

$so6,ooo.

Production remained about theOverall increase .in value of

Beans, dry edibleProlonged-hot weather during blooming period resulted in a poor set.

Both acreage and production were down with a total loss of $Z73,000.

Hay: A]falfaAn increase of 15,500 acres or Z7% was ~:he largest for any crop.

This resulted in a $Z,000,000 gain for the year.

Hay ~ GrainAcreage~ production and value were up for a gain of $Z50~000.

Silage CornIncrease in price and production resulted in a gain of $1Z0,000.

Sugar BeetsAlthough there was an ~ncrease of Z,700 acres, lower yield and price

due to lower sugar content resulted in a drop of $5].7,000.

Sunflowers-- A--n-lncrease of 1 ,ZOO acres plus an increase in price of SZ0.00 per ton

resulted in a gain of $]78,000.

Seed Crops

SanJoaqu:nCountyis producing more and more seed crops each year.

Tl~e most significant cban,.ge was the lower price of bean seed. Productionalso dropped clue to extreme heat during bloom. The combination - price and

production drop - resulted in a loss of $9ZI, 000 for this one crop.

Other seed crops enjoyed favorable growing conditions. Increased

acreage more than made up for the loss from the bean crop° Total gain for

all seed crops was $]76~000.

Nursery Products

Increased population has created a demand for more and more orna-

n~enta] nursery products. Expansion of existing nurseries and the establish-ment of five new ornamental ~urseries is partly responsible for the $35Z,000

~ain. 1960 was also a good year for deciduous fruit and nut trees accounting

for more than one third of the gain,


Vegetable Crops

AsparagusThe $1,400,000 decrease in the 1960 asparagus crop over 1959 is due

to a smaller acreage and a lower yield. Approximately 3,000 acres of oldasparagus beds were pulled out. A shortage of labor during the fresh marketseason resulted in a 5.6 tons per acre decrease in the yieldof shipping aspar-agus.

CarrotsAlthough price and yield remained the same, an increase of 5Z0 acres

allowed for a SZ00~000 increase in value.

Celery_Due to poor fresh market conditions, the celery crop was not com-

pletely harvested. Also a larger portion went for processing resulting in a$750,000 decrease in value o~er 1959.

Onions--The lq60early onion crop was normal; however, there was an $8Z0,000decrease in ~a]ue due to a poor market.

Bell PeppersA geod market resulted in an increase of $Z7Z, 000.

Potatoes

The Kern County potato crop had been harvested by the time San Joa-quin County potatoes came into production, Also the Washington and Oregonpotato crop was light; thus a favorable market was created for local growers.As a result of this, the total potato ~alue was up $890,000.

SweetpotatoesAcreage and yield were little changed over last year but the market

prlce was up giving a $i07,000 increase.

Ton]atoe s1960 was a very good year for tomato production. The crop was

above average and harvest conditions were excellent. Cannery prices were

up $Z.00 per ton over 1959, the deFnand held good and a $i ~488,000 increaseresulted.

Fruit and Nut Crops

AlmondsFollowing 1959’s record production, value dropped $835,000 although

price was up $II0.00 per ton. 1960 can still be considered a good year forthe almond grower.

ApricotsIdeal weather at blossoming time resulted in an excellent set. Pro-

ductmn was up 3 tons per acre. Increased production together with an in-crease of 545 acres resulted in a gain of $581,000 although price was down$15.00 per ton°

SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY lq60AGRICULTURAL COMMISSIONER’S REPOR T

CherriesLack of rain at harvest time and ideal growing conditions produced

an excellemt cherrv crop. Total value was up $I~863~000 even though pricewas considerably beIow~1959.

Grapes, TokavPrice was the main factor~ particularly the latter part of the season.

Growers had difficulty selling storage grapes. Estimated 60,000packageswere taken from storage and dumped in the wineries at winery prices. Thisnot only means a loss in price to the grower but also the cost of packing,storage and transportation. In addition~ many of the boxes and lids weredestroyed. Another 60.000 parkages lestirnated} were sold from storage at$] .Z5 per box or $~60 below the season’s a%erage fresh Pnarket price of$l .90. To this ]oss we must also add storage costs.

Grapes° WineAn increase of $547.000 ~s due to increased price~ Tbls price in-

crease is the result of a light crop in other areas of the state due to heavyfrost in the latter part of Ma~",.

Peacbesa FreestoneA gain of ~-37] ~000 was due to increased production. The quality of

the fruit was excellent a~d a larger portion of the crop was sold on the freshmarket. Ideal weather at blooming time produced a heavy set of fruit. Therewas also a good set of clingstone peaches; however~ green drop under themarketing order held production in line with 1959.

StrawberriesGrowingco=dltions were ideal for a bumper crop. Fresh market sales

were almost four times as great as in 1959 and accounted for 50% of the crop.Increased prices also l~e]ped boost the total ga:n of $I,Z79,000.

Walnuts, EnglishIncreased acreage:, increasedproduction and increasedprice combined

to boost the value of *his crop bv $~ .~633.000.

Ll,~estock and Poultry

Cattle and cal’~es accounted for the largest gain fo]lowed by poultry(Ghickems, and hogs. Sheep and turkevs both showed a small decrease. Tota]increase was $I 774~000. Manufacturing mi]k and eggs showed the most gainfor l:vestock and poultry products.

Apiary Products

Greaterprcduct~on and a slightly better price increased total value bv

$80 ~00.

CROPS SHOWING $I00,000 CHANGE

FIELD CROPS

BarleyAcreage decreased by Z,500 acres. Production showed a slight gain, but

price was up $4.00 per ton. Overa]i increase in value of $1,Z00,000 brings

this crop into one of the top ten this year.

Beans, dry ediblePro]ongedhotweatherduringbI°°ming period re suited in a poor set again

this year. Both acreage and production showed a siight increase but lower

price resulted in a loss of $Z50,000.

CornDue to the Feed Grain Program there was a reduction of 6,000 acres.

Yie]dand price were up sIightlv but not enough to offset the reduced acreage.

Total value was down $3609000,

Hay, A]falfaProduction remained about the same. There was an increase of 5,000

acres but price was $3.60 per ton lower for a loss of $1,450,000.

Hay: GrainA decrease of $]00,000 was due to Iower acreage, production and value.

SafflowerThere was quite anincrease in acreage this year due to increased demand

for oil. Total value was up $]77,000.

So r ghum2~Thls crop also fell under the Feed Grain Program with a reduction of

7~000 acres. Price increase of $5.50 per ton failed to compensate for the

acreage decrease. Total value was down $300,000.

Sugar Beets-- Sugar beets did not come under the government acreage allotment Gro-gram this year and there was an increase of 6,800 acres. Lower yield andprice more than offset the increased acreage and value was down $150,000.

SEED CROPS

Total value of seed crops is $430,000 lower this year. Beans were theonly crop to show a large gain due to both increased acreage and price. Pota-

toes showed the greatest loss due to a decrease in production and price.

NURSERY PRODUCTS

Total value of all nursery products showed a gain of $I10,000. Propaga-tive materials declined $Z~500 in value, all others showed a slight increase.

Ornamental trees and shrubs gained $31,000 for the largest increase.


VEGETABLE CROPS

Aspar a~u__~sValue increased $].73,000 due to better prices. There was alarge pull-

out of old beds again this year for a decrease of 5,000 acres.

CeleryHigh production costs and low rn.arket prices over the past several years

have forced more and more producers out of the celery business. Although

production and price were both better than last year, there was only a sznallacreage planted. Value of $350,000 was slightly more than half of last year’s$630,000 crop.

Sweet cornIncreased acreage, production and price accounted for an increase of

$173,000.

Cucumbers

Acreage doubled this year due to new processors in the area.price and production also helped boost the total by $485,000.

production and price were better than last year,

On]OIlS

Acreage andproduct~onwerebothdown;however, favorable market prices

boosled the total value $],57,000.

P_f2pe r sProcessors took the bulk of the crop this year resulting in a lower price

but increased production. An increase in acreage also helped raise the totalvalue b,¢ $J 52,000.

PotatoesOverproduction throughout the United States created a poor demand and

low prices. San Joaquin County, like the rest of the nation, planted greateracreage. Production per acre was down some and total value was down

$964,000~

Tomatoe sT}.e excessive heat Iast summer caused blossoms to drop and a poor set

of the earlv crop. The long dry fall, however, enabled growers to harvest agood ]ate crop to part].y overcome the earlier loss. Although total productionwas down, increased prices added $i,000,000 to the value of this crop.

cherry growers to enjoy a profitable year. Fifty per cent of the crop went

to fresh market and brought a good price. Price to processors was consider-ably less than. last year when two,,thirds of the crop went for processing. In-creased productiontogether with. increased price for fresh market fruit added

SZ~ 000~000 to the total value.

Grape s]96] was a disasterous year for th.e grape men. Total value dropped

$4~467,000. The year started with. a heavy frost in May which did consider-able damage in some areas° The frost was followed by excessive heat at

blooming timeandthroughout most of the summer. The set was poor and sun-burn extensive, Thisresultedin a. light crop of poor quality, but created quitea demand at the wineries and high prices especial],y for Zinfandel and Carig-nane, Because of poor quality fruit and high. winery prices a smaller portion

of the crop went for fresh, market’,Although w~nerv prices were high, the Z5 per cent set-aside on certain

varieties complicated the purchase and many different options were avail-able. It is impossible at, this time to set a true value on this set=aside, how-ever~ the overall effect, at the present tJ, me is a lowering of the established

FIELD CROPS

A poor growing season due to excessive spring rains resulted in lower

yields of poor quality grain.

Beans, dry edibleAboutZ5% ofthebean acreage was not har,~ested due to continued rains

at harvest time. Growing conditions up to harvest time were favorable and yieldper acre increased. Higher prices prevailed to bring a slight increase for the

year .

CornHigh moisture content and delayed harvest caused by continued rain

had Iittle effect on quality. Yield and price were a little better than last year.

HayHigher prices more than offset a decrease in acreage and production.

Total value increased $690,000.

RiceRain and wet weather hampered harvest operations. Hail caused some

loss of grain and production was down.

SafflowerWet weather in the spring damaged early planted safflower.

planted after the rains produced good yield and quality,

Fields

Silage cornIncreased acreage and value added $350~ 000.

Sorghum grainAcreage increased again this year due to the Feed Grain Program but

some of this gainwas lost at harvest time when fields became too wet toharvest.Mildew bui]dup was quite heavy and late harvested grain was of very poor qual-

ity.

Sugar BeetsGrowing conditions were good until harvest time when rains made it

innpossible to get it, to the fields,, As weather permits.’ grower s continue to har-vest, Sugar companies wiil remain open as long as sufficient volume is

delivered.

Sunflower sTotal value almost doubled this year due

production.

SEED CROPS

to increased acreage and

Total value of seed crops increased $324,,000 this year. Increased

acreage and better production accounted for most of this gain as prices re-mained about the same as last year°


NURSERY PRODUCTS

Field grown vegetable plants gained $ZZI, 000 of the total gain in value

of $Z43,000 for all nursery products. Indoor decorative plants lost $3,400 forthe largest loss followed by grapevines $1,Z00; rose plants $500 and smallfruit plants $60.

VEGETABLE CROPS

AsparagusGrowing and harvesting conditions were normal this year. Acreage

and production remained the same as last year. A better processing price andweaker fresh market price resulted in a larger portion of the crop going to theprocessor.

CarrotsAcreage, production and price were all down for a loss of $530,000.

Cau] JflowerAcreage and production were down although price was a little better.

Celery_

The bulk of the crop this year went to the processor.

Sweet corn

Because of poor market conditions in previous years, growers did notplant this year and acreage dropped 855 acres.

CucumbersAcreage increasedagain this year but price and production were down

for a loss of $16,000o

MelonsAcreage, production andprice were all up for an increase of $300,000.

Onions

An increase of $770,000 was due mainly to increased price.was a slight increase Jn acreage; production rem.ained about the salrle.

S~h’ee tpot atoe sAcreage, production and price were all down for a loss of $Z36,000,

’Fomatoe sFear of a shortage of laborers to harvest the crop resu].ted in a de-

crease of q~000 acres. Rah~s at p]anting ¯time resulted in staggered plantingswhich were beneficial at harvest time as all fields were not mature at the same

lime and a more uniform flow enabled processors to handle the crop.

SAN JOAOUIN COUNTY 1963AGRIC UL TURAL COMMISSIONER’ S REP OR T

FRUIT & NUT CROPS

AlmondsProduction was normal although some tonnage was lostdue to rains

at harvest time. Mold and staining developed on the shells and a good portion

of the crop had to be shelled.

ApricotsIdeal weather produced some of the best crops in history. So~neof the

better orchards produced as high as IZ and ]5 tons per acre. Price was down

considerably over last year.

CherrieSonly a small portion of the early varieties was harvested before the

rains came and damaged the remaining portion. Later varieties were still im-mature and were not damaged by the rain. The crop was quite Spotted, sometrees having an excellent crop and other trees a verylightcrop. Orchards also

varied as to amount of crop produced. In general~ sizes were good and brought

a good price.

Gr ape sMildew was a problem all season. Vineyards had to be sulfured every

"7 tol0 days. Production was downl3~000 tons. Fresh m.arket price was slight-

ly better than last year but winery price was down considerably. Total value

was down $3,687,000.

PeachesThere was a very good peach crop. Clingstone price was down $5.00

per ton while freestone price increased $5.00 per ton.

Pe ar sProbably the poorest pear crop in history. Rains interfered with pol-

lination resulting in a very poor set. At ].east two orchards were abandoned for

a complete crop loss.

PlumsThere was a very heavy plum crop; however, wet fie].ds prevented

spray applications at the proper time and worm damage was excessive.

StrawberriesAcreage and production were dewn but fresh market price was a little

be tte r.

Walnut sWalnut HuskFlyinjury was evidept for the first time this year causing

some loss.


Overal] production fell $470,000 short of last year. Poultry (exceptturkeys) and hogs showed substantial gain.. Cattle and calves registered the

greatest loss due lighter weight animals being sold.

SAI~ JOAQUIN COUNTY 1963


APIARY PRODUCTS

Increase inthe package bee and Queen bee business accounted for mostofthegain. Because offear of injury from. pesticides, beekeepers are demandinghigher prices for po].lination.

LIVESTOCK AND POULTRY PRODUCTS

Chicken eggs showed a SZ,4Z0,000 gain to more than offset a $600,000loss in milk and wool.

Approxinaatelyone hundred commercial crops are covered inthis report and, for your easy reference, they are segregated as totheir commercial use wherever possible.

Acreages of permanent crops are reported in actual bearingacreages only and other crops are reported in actual harvested acre-

age. The prices are reported on an F. O. B. basis. COST OF PRO-DUCTION, HARVESTING~ PACKING AND OTHER HANDLING COSTSSHOULD BE DEDUCTED TO ARRIVE AT A TRUE FARM VALUE.

In keepipg with the two year reporting system, both the 1963and the ].964 figures are shown in thgs report~ Some of the figures from

the 1963 report have been revised. The new entries have been made inthis report.

Copies ofthis report are sent to a number of persons in otherstates~ tofedera], state andcouptv agencies throughout the United Statesand to an increasing number of organizations and ~ndividuals within thestate. The members of this department have made every effort to makethis report as accurate as possible by checking our figures with everyknown source of reliable information.

I wish to express mv sincere appreciation to all who have as-sisted my inspectors and deputies by furnishing necessary information

to them which has made the compilation of this report pessible.
