1 Source: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service. 2 Value of agricultural sector production is the gross value of the commodities and services produced within a year. Net value-added is the sector's

contribution to the National economy and is the sum of the income from production earned by all factors-of-production, regardless of ownership. Net farm

income is the farm operator's share of income from the sector's production activities. The concept presented is consistent with that employed by the

Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. 3 A positive value of inventory change represents current-year production not sold by December 31. A negative value is an offset to production from prior

years included in current-year sales.

10 FIELD CROPS MICHIGAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS 2016-2017

Field Crops

Growing Season Weather Summary Dr. Jeff Andresen, Michigan State University

The 2016 growing season was warmer than normal with highly

variable precipitation totals and timing. It was preceded by an

unusually mild winter. Winter temperatures averaged 27.8°F, which

is 7.6°F above normal. It was the fifth warmest winter on record--

since 1895. The seasonal state average precipitation was 2.08” above

normal. The majority of the precipitation fell as rain, and snowfall

totals in most areas were well below normal.

During April, cool, wet weather delayed planting. April average

temperatures were from 1°F below normal in the southwest to more

than 5°F below normal in the northeast. Precipitation ranged from

less than 75% of normal to more than 150% of normal. Below normal

temperatures continued the first half of May, further delaying

fieldwork. A prolonged period of mild, dry weather began the third

week of May, which allowed rapid progress of spring fieldwork and

planting. However, by the first week in June the extended dryness

resulted in abnormally dry topsoil, slow germination of late-planted

crops, delayed activation of some herbicides, and moisture stress for

some shallow-rooted crops.

Drier than normal weather continued across much of the state

during June. As of the first week of July, the U.S. Drought Monitor

put most of Lower Michigan, in D0 "abnormally dry" or D1

"moderate drought" categories. Continued warm and dry weather led

to increasing levels of moisture stress during the first three weeks of

July. Daytime temperatures in the 90’s F. and high levels of solar

radiation increased potential evapotranspiration. In late July, rainfall

in many areas provided moisture just in time for the water-sensitive

pollination stage for a significant portion of the corn crop. Rainfall

totals for the last 10 days of July were 2.00"-4.00" across much of

western Lower Michigan. Rainfall totals across eastern sections,

however, were much less, and dryness and moisture stress continued

for many crops there. For the month of July, rainfall totals generally

ranged from less than 1.50" (less than 50% of normal) across eastern

and northern sections of the Lower Peninsula to more than 6.00"

(more than 200% of normal) in western Lower and Upper Michigan

Precipitation totals for August ranged from less than 2.0" across

west central and northern sections of Lower Michigan to more than

10.0" across southwestern sections of the state. Mean temperatures

during August were above normal. Degree day accumulations as of

the end of August were generally 150-300 base 50ºF units above

normal, which translates into 1-2 calendar weeks or more ahead of

normal. Warmer than normal weather continued for much of

September, bringing most spring-planted crops to maturity. Moderate

to heavy rain across portions of southern and central Lower Michigan

from the 28th of September through the 1st of October halted most

early harvest-related and fall fieldwork. Mean temperatures for

September ranged from 2-4 ºF above normal. Precipitation totals

ranged from less than 2.00" in east central sections of the state to

more than 5.00" in the north and west. Given the late season rains,

the Palmer Drought Severity Index increased to 'Unusually Moist'

across much of southern and east central Lower Michigan and all of

Upper Michigan, which is noteworthy as drought conditions had been

a problem in some of those areas are recently as mid-August.

Warmer than normal weather during October and early November

favored crop maturation, grain dry down and fall fieldwork. Mean

temperatures for October ranged from 2-4ºF above normal, resulting

in the 7th consecutive warmer than normal month. On the 24th

precipitation disrupted fall harvest and other fieldwork activities, and

progress of corn and soybean harvest progress remained behind

normal. October precipitation totals ranged from 3.0 to 5.0". By early

November most of the state was classified as, 'Unusually Moist' to

'Very Moist' by the long term Palmer Drought Severity Index. The

first freezing temperatures of the fall were much later than normal.

MICHIGAN AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS 2016-2017 COUNTY ESTIMATES 53

Agricultural Statistics Districts

The State is divided into nine Agricultural Statistics Districts to

make data comparison easier. An Agricultural Statistics District is

a contiguous group of counties having relatively similar

agricultural characteristics. Each district has within it more

homogeneous agriculture than the State as a whole. They are

numbered from north to south and west to east.
