40 Crop Production 2017 Summary (January 2018) USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

Forage Production Forage production is the 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 0.4943. The conversion factor (0.4943) is based on the assumption that one ton of dry hay is 0.87 ton of dry matter, one ton of haylage is 0.45 ton dry matter and one ton of greenchop is 0.25 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 = ((0.45*0.9)+(0.25*0.1))/0.87 = 0.4943. The factors assumed here may vary by State and can be adjusted. Adjustments would result in a slightly different conversion factor. All Forage Area Harvested, Yield, and Production – States and 18 State Total: 2015-2017 [All forage production is the sum of the following dry equivalents: alfalfa hay harvested as dry hay, all other hay harvested as dry hay, alfalfa haylage and greenchop, all other haylage and greenchop; after converting alfalfa and all other haylage and greenchop to a dry equivalent basis]

Potato Objective Yield Data The National Agricultural Statistics Service is conducting objective yield surveys in seven fall potato-producing States during 2017. Sample plots were located in potato fields randomly selected using a scientifically designed sampling procedure. Field workers recorded counts and measurements within the field and then harvested six hills per sample. Potatoes were sent to laboratories for sizing and grading according to accepted United States fresh grading standards. Data in these tables are rounded actual field counts from this survey.

110 Crop Production 2017 Summary (January 2018) USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

2017 Annual Weather Summary Highlights: An extremely active Atlantic hurricane season brought an unprecedented three Category 4 storms in less than a month to various parts of the country. Prior to 2017, the last major (Category 3 or higher) hurricane to strike the United States was Wilma in southern Florida on October 24, 2005. Hurricanes Harvey and Irma caused great devastation in Texas (starting August 25) and Florida (starting September 10), respectively. Harvey’s damage was mostly caused by epic flooding from Houston to Beaumont-Port Arthur, Texas, and all areas in between, and well as southwestern Louisiana. However, high winds from Harvey battered the central Texas coast, damaging cotton and farm infrastructure. Other agricultural damage related to Harvey included drowned livestock and submerged rice fields. Little more than 2 weeks later, on September 10, Irma struck the Florida Keys before reaching the mainland near Marco Island. High winds and heavy rain spread northward throughout Florida’s peninsula and into other parts of the Southeast, causing damage to citrus, sugarcane, vegetables, timber, pecans, row crops, nursery crops, and farm fences and buildings. Some farms were damaged by both wind and flooding, and some southern Atlantic coastal areas were affected by a large storm surge and salt-water intrusion. Florida also suffered widespread and extensive power outages in Irma’s wake. Before reaching the Southeast, Irma had ripped through a string of Caribbean islands, including the northern U.S. Virgin Islands of St. Thomas and St. John. Then, on September 20, Hurricane Maria hit the other major U.S. Virgin Island of St. Croix before making a direct strike on Puerto Rico as a high-end Category 4 storm. In the storms’ wake, the electrical grid was almost completely destroyed in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and many areas reported catastrophic damage to homes and farms. By early 2018, power on the U.S. Virgin Islands was more than 90 percent restored, but the Puerto Rican power grid was carrying only 80 percent of its pre-storm electrical load. Although the 2017 growing season was “imperfect” across the Midwest, largely due to erratic rainfall, a lack of extreme heat helped to boost the Nation’s corn yield to its highest level on record—slightly above 2016. The Nation’s soybean yield was down about 6 percent form 2016, but production reached a record level in part due to record-high acreage. In stark contrast, a punishing drought developed by late spring and lasted through the remainder of the year across the Northern Plains, harming spring-sown small grains and severely stressing rangeland and pastures. Spring wheat yield was down about 13 percent from last year, while Durum wheat yield was down nearly 42 percent. The Northern Plain’s drought later spread to parts of the Northwest, contributing to an extremely active wildfire season. Northwestern fires, which led to smoky conditions and poor air quality for long periods of time, helped to push the Nation’s annual wildfire acreage into near-record territory. Based on preliminary reports, nearly 10 million acres of vegetation burned in 2017, compared to a record-high 10.1 million acres in 2015 and 9.9 million acres in 2006. In California, the fire season never really ended, as massive outbreaks struck Napa and environs in October and several coastal southern counties in December. Much earlier, fast-moving March grassfires had devastated numerous farms and ranches on the Central and Southern High Plains. And, before that, a truly impressive Western winter wet season had virtually erased multi-year precipitation deficits, including much of California’s 4-year drought. However, the precipitation, which significantly improved Western water-supply prospects, also resulted in the February near-failure of northern California’s Oroville Dam and contributed to grass and brush growth that later helped to fuel numerous large wildfires. Late in the year, the return of La Niña contributed to drought development or expansion across the southern half of the United States. Across the Central and Southern Plains, developing drought late in the year was a concern with respect to poorly established winter wheat, especially when bitterly cold weather arrived in late December. During 2016, drought coverage in the contiguous United States ranged from a U.S. Drought Monitor-era record low of 4.5 percent on May 23 to 26.4 percent on December 26. Winter 2016-17: La Niña quickly faded, disappearing altogether by winter’s end. However, a pool of cool water persisted over the northeastern Pacific Ocean, possibly contributing to an active Pacific jet stream that led to the Nation’s wettest December-February period since 1997-98. And, despite a few sharp, short-lived cold snaps, general winter warmth dominated all but the Nation’s northwestern corner. The warmth intensified as winter progressed, culminating in the Nation’s warmest February since 1954. Aside from fleeting Arctic outbreaks in mid-December and early January, cold weather was largely confined to the Northwest. (The persistent Northwestern chill, accompanied by periods of precipitation, resulted in winter hardship for livestock and wildlife, as well as damage to some storage facilities due to heavy snow loads.) Across the Plains and

Midwest, enough snow preceded the two cold snaps in most areas to limit concerns about adverse impacts on winter wheat. In fact, across the Central and Southern Plains, drought rather than cold was a greater concern with respect to wheat. Between the end of November and the end of February, the portion of the winter wheat crop rated very poor to poor increased from 15 to 27 percent in Colorado; 13 to 21 percent in Kansas; 16 to 20 percent in Texas; and 12 to 15 percent in Oklahoma. Wetness across the northern and western United States highlighted an overall stormy winter, although many storms bypassed the Mid-South and the Mid-Atlantic. Winter precipitation was particularly impressive from northern and central California to the northern Intermountain West. In fact, flooding developed on both sides of the Sierra Nevada crest in early January, followed by extensive flooding and flood-control efforts during February in parts of California. According to the Drought Monitor, drought covered just 14.1 percent of the country by the end of February, down from 31.5 percent on November 29, 2016. Most of the drought eradication occurred in the West, including California, which experienced a winter decline in drought coverage from 73 to 9 percent. In contrast, winter precipitation was insufficient to erase drought from the southern Appalachians to southern New England, while pockets of drought developed, persisted or intensified from the Central and Southern Plains into the middle Mississippi Valley. Spring: Active weather led to a net decrease in the Nation’s drought coverage, as widespread, frequent storm systems bypassed only a few areas, such as the Northern Plains and the lower Southeast. However, an extended period of well-placed storms ended in late April, when too much rain in a short period of time across the Mid-South and lower Midwest caused extensive planting delays and lowland flooding. Other spring highlights included a variety of weather extremes. In March, for example, significant events included early month wildfires on the Central and Southern Plains and mid-month freezes in the Southeast. The Southeastern freezes followed a mid-March Northeastern blizzard. Several weeks later, in late April, an historic, late-season snow storm on the Central and Southern High Plains flattened winter wheat and resulted in noteworthy livestock losses. Meanwhile, an impressive Western snow-accumulation season finally peaked in April, following a final flurry of storms. The early part of the snow-melt season proceeded mostly in an orderly fashion, although periods of warm and/or wet weather led to localized lowland flooding. Lingering effects from the wet winter and early spring included planting and crop developmental delays, especially in California and the Northwest. Drought covered just 4.5 percent of the country—a U.S. Drought Monitor-era record low—by May 23, down from a March peak of 16 percent. The record-low drought coverage occurred on the strength of late-spring rainfall in the Southeast, and in spite of emerging drought on the Northern Plains. Summer: One of the biggest weather events of the summer—the arrival and persistence of Hurricane Harvey along the Texas coast—unfolded in the final days of the season. Harvey caused flooding on a massive scale in late August from Houston, Texas, to southwestern Louisiana, setting rainfall and crest records across a vast area. Other summer highlights included persistent Western heat; a fast-developing and hard-hitting drought on the Northern Plains; and a Midwestern growing season that featured mostly favorable temperatures but erratic rainfall. The Western heat contributed to a large number of wildfires, which seasonally shifted from the Southwest to California and the Northwest as the summer progressed. Other contributing factors to Western wildfires included an abundance of light fuels (e.g. grass and brush), cured by summer heat in the wake of a wet winter, as well as 6.3 billion standing dead trees, according to the U.S. Forest Service. During the mid- to late-summer period, stagnant air (due to a ridge of high pressure) helped to trap smoke from western North American wildfires near the earth’s surface. Reductions in visibility and air quality due to smoke and haze were especially prominent and persistent in the Northwest. Meanwhile, extremely dry conditions on the Northern High Plains were accompanied by periods of heat. Agricultural casualties included rangeland, pastures, and spring wheat—arguably the region’s worst drought since 1988. The rapid drought expansion across the Northern Plains—and later the Northwest—boosted the Nation’s drought coverage to 13.54 percent by September 5. By summer’s end, extreme to exceptional drought (D3 to D4) cloaked 44 percent of Montana and portions of the western Dakotas.

Autumn: La Niña’s influence on North American weather patterns became more obvious and profound as autumn progressed. Most notably, a marked drying trend developed across much of the southern United States. For some areas, including coastal Texas and peninsular Florida, the sudden dryness followed historic, hurricane-related rainfall. Meanwhile, autumn warmth accompanied the dryness, especially in the Southwest. During the first few weeks of autumn, however, hurricanes dominated the weather headlines. In the western Gulf Coast region, recovery from Hurricane Harvey’s record-setting downpours was just getting underway as September began. Days later, Hurricane Irma ripped through a string of Caribbean islands, including the U.S. Virgin Islands of St. Thomas and St. John, before taking aim on Florida and other parts of the southeastern United States. Finally, Hurricane Maria spared the mainland United States but devastated Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Island of St. Croix. Farther west, some of the Plains’ winter wheat experienced unfavorable autumn weather, resulting in poor crop establishment. Weather-related concerns with respect to wheat included lingering drought on the Northern Plains and late autumn warmth and dryness across the Central and Southern Plains. Meanwhile, the corn harvest ended late in portions of the Midwest, in part due late crop maturation but also because of occasional rain-related delays. Elsewhere, generally wet autumn weather in the Northwest contrasted with warm, mostly dry conditions in the Southwest. Northern California, with abundant light fuels (e.g. cured grasses and brush) and heavy fuels (e.g. dead or dying trees), experienced devastating October wildfires—but later received some much-needed rain and high-elevation snow. A new round of fires in southern California began in early December, days after the official end of meteorological autumn. Only 6 months after drought covered just 4.5 percent of the contiguous United States, coverage expanded to 21.1 percent by November 28. La Niña’s influence in drying out much of the southern United States accounted for much of the drought development. December: Raging wildfires in southern California and a late-month cold wave east of the Rockies highlighted a La Niña-driven weather regime. La Niña also likely contributed to a broad expanse of drier-than-normal conditions, as well as unusually warm weather across the Nation’s southwestern quadrant. A few areas, however, received significant December precipitation. Wet (or snowy) regions included the northern High Plains and areas downwind of the Great Lakes. After mid-month, a pair of heavy precipitation events across the interior Southeast eased drought and generally benefited winter grains and cover crops. In advance of bitterly cold conditions, snow cover increased from less than one-quarter to nearly half of the country between December 20 and 25. Most of the gain in snow coverage occurred across the northern half of the United States, providing highly beneficial insulation for Northwestern and Midwestern winter wheat, as well as wheat on the Plains from Nebraska northward. (Earlier in the month, from December 7-9, a rare, early-season snow storm had blanketed the Deep South from southern Texas to the southern Appalachians.) In contrast, winter wheat across the southern half of the Plains—already poorly established and stressed by developing drought—was left exposed. And, as very cold air arrived late in the month, concerns mounted with regard to the health of the Southern Plains’ wheat. 2017 Annual Crop Summary April: Temperatures were above normal across most of the United States during the month of April. Monthly average temperatures were generally more than 2°F above normal east of the Great Plains with the Ohio Valley and the majority of the Southeast averaging more than 4°F above normal. The major exception to this trend was the Northwest where April average temperatures were mostly below normal. Precipitation levels were above normal across most of the Nation with notable rainfall totals reported across the northern Pacific Coast, South Central United States, and Mid-Atlantic States for the month. Parts of the lower Mississippi Valley and Washington recorded over 16 inches of precipitation during the month. In the eastern Plains, cold temperatures and measurable snowfall were reported during the last week of April. By April 9, producers had planted 3 percent of the Nation's corn crop, slightly behind the previous year but equal to the 5-year average. Producers had planted 34 percent of the 2017 corn crop by April 30, nine percentage points behind the

previous year but equal to the 5-year average. Planting progress was well ahead of historical averages in most of the eastern Corn Belt States. Cotton producers had planted 14 percent of the cotton crop by April 30, slightly behind the previous year and 3 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Producers in Texas, the largest cotton producing State, had planted 13 percent of the crop by the end of the month, 3 percentage points behind the 5-year average. May: Most of the United States recorded below average temperatures for the month of May, with the only major exceptions in parts of the West and Southeast. Portions of the Great Plains and Mississippi Valley recorded average temperatures more than 2°F below normal. Wet weather in early May hampered spring fieldwork across much of the eastern United States. The western half of the Nation was relatively dry throughout the month. In late May, dry conditions prevailed across the West and Corn Belt allowing for more days of fieldwork but adversely impacted some crop conditions in the Northern Plains. By May 14, seventy-one percent of the 2017 corn crop was planted, 2 percentage points behind the previous year but slightly ahead of the 5-year average. Thirty-one percent of the Nation's corn crop had emerged by May 14, ten percentage points behind the previous year and 5 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Nationally, 33 percent of the cotton crop was planted by May 14, five percentage points behind the previous year and 4 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Producers had planted 32 percent of the 2017 sorghum crop by May 14, slightly behind the previous year and 3 percentage points behind the 5-year average. By May 14, seventy-eight percent of the barley crop was seeded, 10 percentage points behind the previous year and slightly behind the 5-year average. By May 28, sixty-seven percent of the Nation's soybean crop was planted, 4 percentage points behind the previous year and slightly behind the 5-year average. Ninety-six percent of the Nation's spring wheat crop was seeded by May 28, 2 percentage points behind the previous year but 5 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. June: Average monthly temperatures were generally above normal across the western United States with areas in the Southwest recording average temperatures more than 4°F above normal in June. From the Delta to the lower Atlantic Coast, average temperatures were lower than normal for the month. Drier than normal weather prevailed in areas west of the Mississippi Valley during the month. Drought levels expanded across the northern Great Plains, deteriorating crop and pasture conditions in Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota. Elsewhere, areas along the Gulf Coast recorded more than 15 inches of precipitation during the month. In late June, Tropical Storm Cindy and its remnants brought significant delays to fieldwork in Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi. The planting of the 2017 corn crop was mostly complete across the United States by June 4 with 96 percent planted, slightly behind both the previous year and the 5-year average. Over 90 percent of the corn crop was emerged in all estimating States except Pennsylvania by June 18. Eighty-three percent of the Nation's soybean crop was planted by June 4, slightly ahead of the previous year and 4 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Nationally, 58 percent of the soybean crop had emerged by June 4, four percentage points behind the previous year and slightly behind the 5-year average. By June 4, ninety-nine percent of the barley crop was seeded, slightly behind the previous year but 3 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Nationwide, 97 percent of the barley crop had emerged by June 18, slightly behind the previous year but slightly ahead of the 5-year average. Peanut planting advanced to 91 percent complete by June 4, two percentage points ahead of both the previous year and the 5-year average. The Nation's spring wheat was 90 percent emerged by June 4, five percentage points behind the previous year but 5 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Ninety-eight percent of the rice crop had emerged by June 18, two percentage points behind both the previous year and the 5-year average. Nationally, 98 percent of the cotton crop was planted by June 25, equal to the previous year but slightly behind the 5-year average. By June 25, ninety-five percent of the Nation's sorghum was planted, slightly ahead of the previous year and 2 percentage point ahead of the 5-year average. July: Warmer than normal temperatures blanketed the United States during July. Monthly average temperatures of more than 4°F above normal were recorded across the northern Plains and portions of the Pacific Northwest and California. Conversely, slightly cooler than normal weather settled in portions of the Great Lakes and New England. Precipitation was scattered throughout much of the Nation, with the largest accumulations more evident in the eastern United States. A band stretching from the eastern Corn Belt to the Mid-Atlantic States had areas recording precipitation over 4 inches above normal for the month. Drought intensity continued to grow across the upper Missouri Valley with crop conditions decreasing in Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota throughout July. Nationally, 98 percent of the United States soybean crop had emerged by July 2, equal to the previous year but 3 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. By July 30, eighty-two percent of the 2017 soybean crop was at or beyond the blooming stage, 2 percentage points behind the previous year but 2 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. By July 2, fifty-nine percent of the spring wheat crop was at or beyond the heading stage, 12 percentage points behind the previous year but 5 percentage points ahead of the

5-year average. Heading of this year's oat crop advanced to 85 percent complete by July 2, six percentage points behind the previous year but slightly ahead of the 5-year average. Heading of the Nation's barley crop advanced to 51 percent complete by July 2, nineteen percentage points behind the previous year and 6 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Thirty-three percent of the 2017 rice crop was at or beyond the heading stage by July 16, six percentage points behind the previous year but slightly ahead of the 5-year average. Nationally, 87 percent of the cotton was at or beyond the squaring stage by July 30, four percentage points behind both the previous year and the 5-year average. By July 30, bolls were setting on 46 percent of the Nation's crop, 7 percentage points behind both the previous year and the 5-year average. Eighty-five percent of the corn was at or beyond the silking stage by July 30, four percentage points behind the previous year but equal to the 5-year average. By July 30, forty-nine percent of the Nation's sorghum was at or beyond the heading stage, 10 percentage points behind the previous year and 3 percentage points behind the 5-year average Eighty-seven percent of the peanut crop was pegging by July 30, slightly behind the previous year but slightly ahead of the 5-year average August: Nearly all areas in the central and northeastern United States recorded below-average temperatures for the month of August. A majority of the Great Plains and Mississippi Valley recorded average temperatures for the month more than 4°F below normal. Conversely, above-average temperatures were recorded west of the Rocky Mountains. Most areas in the western Corn Belt, southern Plains, and lower Mississippi Valley had precipitation totals above normal levels. Hurricane Harvey brought heavy rain to eastern Texas and western Louisiana late in the month causing major flooding. The storm then traveled across the Mississippi Delta into the Ohio Valley triggering a decline in crop conditions in some States. By August 13, ninety-seven percent of the corn was at or beyond the silking stage, two percentage points behind the previous year and slightly behind the 5-year average. Nationally, 61 percent of the corn crop was at or beyond the dough stage by August 13, nine percentage points behind the previous year and slightly behind the 5-year average. By August 13, barley producers had harvested 52 percent of the 2017 crop, equal to the previous year but 12 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Overall, 49 percent of the barley was reported in good to excellent condition on August 13, equal to the beginning of the month but 22 percentage points below the same time in 2016. By August 20, spring wheat producers had harvested 58 percent of the Nation's crop, 5 percentage points behind the previous year but 7 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Overall, 34 percent of the spring wheat was reported in good to excellent condition on August 20, up 3 percentage points from July 30 but 32 percentage points lower than at the same time in 2016. Heading of the 2017 sorghum crop was 84 percent complete by August 20, four percentage points behind the previous year but 2 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average The Nation's rice crop was 96 percent headed by August 20, slightly behind the previous year but 4 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average.

Ninety-three percent of the Nation's cotton crop was at or beyond the boll setting stage by August 27, two percentage points behind the previous year but equal to the 5-year average. September: Most of the United States experienced above-average temperatures for the month of September with some locations in the Corn Belt and New England recording average temperatures more than 4°F above normal. Despite warm temperatures across major agricultural producing regions of the Nation, maturity and harvest of most fall harvested crops remained behind normal throughout the month. Scattered areas in the northern Rockies, Southwest, and Southeast recorded below-average temperatures for the month. Precipitation levels were variable across the Nation with some areas of the Pacific Northwest, Great Plains, and Southeast recording more than 4 inches of total precipitation for the month. In mid-September, Hurricane Irma brought heavy rain and winds to Florida and other southern Atlantic Coast States. Portions of Florida received more than 16 inches of precipitation from the storm. Above-normal monthly rainfall benefited drought areas of Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota but delayed fieldwork. Nationally, 60 percent of the corn crop was at or beyond the dent stage by September 3, fourteen percentage points behind the previous year and 8 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Fifty-one percent of the corn crop was mature by September 24, nineteen percentage points behind the previous year and 13 percentage points behind the 5-year average.

behind the 5-year average. Nationally, producers had harvested 55 percent of the 2017 rice crop by September 17, seven percentage points behind the previous year but 4 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Overall, 69 percent of the rice crop was rated in good to excellent condition on September 17, compared with 71 percent on September 3, and 55 percent at the same time in 2016. Forty-one percent of the 2017 soybean crop was at or beyond the leaf dropping stage by September 17, two percentage points behind both the previous year and the 5-year average. By September 17, eighty-four percent of the sorghum crop was at or beyond the coloring stage, 3 percentage points behind the previous year but slightly ahead of the 5-year average. By September 24, producers had sown 24 percent of the Nation's 2018 winter wheat acreage, 4 percentage points behind both the previous year and the 5-year average. By September 24, fifty-seven percent of the 2017 cotton crop was at or beyond the boll opening stage, 4 percentage points behind both the previous year and the 5-year average. October: Cooler than normal temperatures were recorded across the Rockies and Pacific Coast during the first half of the month. However, from October 22 until the end of the month, temperatures remained either normal or above normal, with parts of Arizona, California, and Nevada seeing temperatures 4°F to 8°F above normal. The opposite was true for the lower Midwest and Southeast, with warmer than average temperatures recorded during the first week, before chilling to 12°F below average across Texas, Oklahoma, and the Gulf States by month's end. For most of October, the Nation experienced the usual amount of precipitation. Bands of rain during the first week slowed field work across the western Corn Belt and Hurricane Nate brought rain and damaging winds to the Gulf and Eastern States. Towards the end of the month, producers in the Midwest hurried to complete soybean and corn harvests before snow arrived. Soybean producers had harvested 49 percent of the Nation's crop by October 15, ten percentage points behind the previous year and 11 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Overall, 61 percent of the soybean crop was reported in good to excellent condition on October 15, thirteen percentage points lower than at the same time in 2016. By October 15, fifty-one percent of the Nation's peanut crop was harvested, slightly behind the previous year but 5 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Overall, 70 percent of the peanut crop was reported in good to excellent condition on October 15, fourteen percentage points better than at the same time in 2016. By October 22, ninety-eight percent of the rice crop was harvested, 2 percentage points ahead of the previous year and 5 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Fifty-four percent of the 2017 corn crop was harvested by October 29, still well behind the previous year's 73 percent and the 5-year average of 72 percent. Overall, 66 percent of the corn crop was reported in good to excellent condition as of October 29, eight percentage points below the same time in 2016. Sorghum producers had harvested 59 percent of the crop by October 29, sixteen percentage points behind the previous year and 10 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Producers had sown 84 percent of the 2018 winter wheat crop by October 29, slightly behind the previous year and 3 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Nationally, producers had harvested 46 percent of the cotton crop by October 29, slightly ahead of both the previous year and the 5-year average. Overall, 55 percent of the cotton crop was reported in good to excellent condition as of October 29, six percentage points above the same time in 2016. Producers had harvested 87 percent of the sugarbeet crop by October 29, two percentage points ahead of the previous year and slightly ahead of the 5-year average. November: November's precipitation was higher than average around the Great Lakes, northern Rockies, and Pacific Northwest. The southern half of the Nation experienced drier than average weather, especially in parts of Texas, the Delta States, and the Southern Atlantic States. Despite heavy precipitation in the western half of the State, the northeastern part of Montana remained in an extreme drought for the month. Temperatures were fairly normal for most of the Nation during November, with most regions being within 2°F of average. The Rockies were the exception, with nearly all of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and parts of Wyoming being 6°F to 8°F warmer than usual. The lack of extreme weather allowed for good working conditions, helping producers complete row crop harvest. Ninety-five percent of the 2018 winter wheat crop was sown by November 12, slightly ahead of the previous year, but equal to the 5-year average. Nationally, winter wheat emergence had advanced to 84 percent complete by November 12, slightly ahead of both the previous year and the 5-year average. Fifty percent of the 2018 winter wheat crop was reported in good to excellent condition for the week ending November 26, compared with 58 percent rated in these two categories during the same week in 2016. By November 12, ninety-seven percent of the Nation's sugarbeet crop was harvested, 4 percentage points ahead of the previous year, but equal to the 5-year average. Producers had harvested 96 percent of the soybean acreage by November 19, two percentage points behind the previous year and slightly behind the 5-year average. Producers had harvested 95 percent of the 2017 peanut acreage by November 19, equal to both the previous year and the 5-year average. Ninety-five percent of the 2017 corn crop was harvested by November 26, three percentage points behind both the previous year and the 5-year average. By November 26, ninety-five percent of the 2017 sorghum crop was harvested,

slightly behind both the previous year and the 5-year average. By November 26, winter wheat emergence was 92 percent complete, equal to both the previous year and the 5-year average. Producers had harvested 79 percent of the cotton crop by November 26, three percentage points ahead of the previous year, but slightly behind the 5-year average. By November 26, ninety-three percent of the 2017 sunflower crop was harvested, four percentage points behind the previous year, but equal to the 5-year average. Crop Comments Corn: Corn for grain production in the United States is estimated at 14.6 billion bushels, down 4 percent from the 2016 estimate. The average yield in the United States is estimated at a record 176.6 bushels per acre, 2.0 bushels above the 2016 average yield of 174.6 bushels per acre. Estimated yields in 2017 are up from the previous year across most of the Corn Belt. Record yields are estimated in Alabama, Florida, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, and West Virginia. Corn planted area, at 90.2 million acres, was down 4 percent from 2016. Area harvested for grain was estimated at 82.7 million acres, down 5 percent from the 2016 estimate. The 2017 corn objective yield data indicated the third highest number of ears per acre on record for the combined 10 objective yield States (Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin). Record high ear counts were recorded in South Dakota. Corn silage production was estimated at 128 million tons for 2017, up 2 percent from 2016. The United States silage yield was estimated at 19.9 tons per acre, down 0.4 ton from 2016. Area harvested for silage was estimated at 6.43 million acres, up 4 percent from a year ago. Wet weather hampered planting progress through much of the Corn Belt in April. Planting continued between storms allowing producers to plant 34 percent of this year’s corn crop by April 30, nine percentage points behind the previous year but equal to the 5-year average. Planting progress was well ahead of historical averages in most of the eastern Corn Belt States. By May 14, seventy-one percent of the 2017 corn crop was planted, 2 percentage points behind the previous year but slightly ahead of the 5-year average. Seventy-three percent of the corn crop had emerged by May 28, two percentage points behind both the previous year and the 5-year average. The planting of the 2017 corn crop was 96 percent complete across the Nation by June 4, slightly behind both the previous year and the 5-year average. By June 18, corn emerged had advanced to 98 percent complete, slightly behind the previous year but equal to the 5-year average. By June 25, sixty-seven percent of the corn crop was reported in good to excellent condition, 8 percentage points below the same time in 2016. Ten percent of the 2017 corn crop was silking by July 2, four percentage points behind the previous year and 3 percentage points behind the 5-year average. By July 9, sixty-five percent of the corn crop was reported in good to excellent condition, 11 percentage points below the same time in 2016. Dry weather negatively impacted corn condition ratings across the western Corn Belt. Sixty-seven percent of the corn crop was at or beyond the silking stage by July 23, nine percentage points behind the previous year and 2 percentage points behind the 5-year average. By July 30, twenty-three percent of the United States corn crop was at or beyond the dough stage, 5 percentage points behind 2016 and 2 percentage points behind the 5-year average. In 13 of the 18 major estimating States, the percentage of the crop in the dough stage was behind normal. By August 6, forty-two percent of the crop was at or beyond the dough stage, 8 percentage points behind 2016 and 2 percentage points behind the 5-year average. By August 13, sixteen percent of the crop was denting, 3 percentage points behind 2016 and 4 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Seventy-six percent of the corn crop was at or beyond the dough stage by August 20, seven percentage points behind the previous year and slightly behind the 5-year average. By

Growers planted 162,000 acres in 2017, an increase of 1 percent from 2016. Harvested area, at 143,200 acres, was down 6 percent from the previous year. Average yield, at 1,256 pounds per acre, declined 176 pounds from 2016. Other Oilseeds: Mustard seed production for 2017 declined 37 percent from the previous year to 60.3 million pounds. However, this represents the second largest production since 2003 for the Nation. Planted area, at 103,000 acres, was down just 100 acres from 2016. Harvested area, at 95,400 acres, was down 3 percent, or 2,800 acres, from last year. Planted and harvested acreage represented the fourth and fifth highest area for the Nation, respectively, since records began in 1991. The average yield, at 632 pounds per acre, was 348 pounds below the 2016 average yield and was the fourth lowest yield on record. Rapeseed production was estimated at a record high 20.8 million pounds, up 7 percent from last year’s production level. Growers planted 10,100 acres of rapeseed in 2017, a decline of 900 acres from 2016. Harvested area, at 9,700 acres, was down 800 acres from last year. Planted and harvested area in the United States represented the fourth and third highest on record, respectively, since records began in 1991. The average yield in 2017 was 2,139 pounds per acre, an increase of 299 pounds from 2016 and the second highest yield on record for the Nation. Cotton: Upland cotton production was estimated at 20.6 million 480-pound bales, up 24 percent from the previous year. The United States yield for Upland cotton is estimated at 889 pounds per acre, up 34 pounds from 2016. Upland planted area, estimated at 12.4 million acres, was up 25 percent from last year. Harvested area, at 11.1 million acres, was up 19 percent from the previous year. Record high Upland production is estimated in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. Record Upland yields were estimated in Arkansas and Missouri. In the Southeast States (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia), planting was completed by end of June. With frequent rainfall and extreme heat over the summer, there were many reports of disease and insect pressure in cotton fields; however, farmers were diligent about spraying and kept the negative effects to a minimum. Winds from Hurricanes Harvey and Irma caused some damage to cotton in September, resulting in some yield losses and also delays in harvesting the crop. Drier weather developed toward the end of the growing season, but the crop remained in mostly good to excellent condition allowing harvest to continue on pace.

In the Delta region, planting was complete by mid-June. The summer months of June and July brought hot, dry conditions throughout the region which allowed the crop to mature ahead of normal in Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, and Missouri. With the advanced crop, harvest was underway in mid-September in Mississippi and Louisiana. By early October, harvest was in full swing in the region and was complete by late November. Texas growers began the planting season at an above average pace. Early rains were followed by drier conditions and warm temperatures during the growing season, making it ideal for cotton growth in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. In Texas, the favorable weather conditions in spring and summer, prior to Hurricane Harvey, was beneficial to crop development. In the early part of September, the Upper Coast and South East Texas were still experiencing the lingering effects of Hurricane Harvey with significant rainfall resulting in extensive flooding in many areas. The rest of the State received little to no rain, with the exception of areas in the Edwards Plateau, South Texas, and the Lower Valley. During the latter part of the month, conditions remained in mostly fair to excellent condition. The cotton crop in Kansas and Oklahoma was also rated mostly fair to excellent condition throughout the growing season and with an increase in acres for 2017, record production was estimated for Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. American Pima producers planted 251,500 acres in 2017, up 29 percent from 2016. Harvested area, at 247,900 acres, was up 32 percent from the previous year.

Harvested acres totaled 209,500 in 2017, two percent below a year earlier. Yields averaged 2,199 pounds per acre, up 178 pounds from 2016. North Carolina growers reported transplanting started early and rain caused some delays resulting in a mix of an early and late crop. Burley production totaled 161 million pounds, up 15 percent from the previous year. Growers harvested 81,500 acres, up 2 percent from 2016. Reported yields averaged 1,977 pounds per acre, up 230 pounds from a year earlier. Kentucky growers reported tobacco quality was much better than the previous year. Sugarbeets: Production for 2017 was estimated at 35.3 million tons, down 4 percent from the previous year’s revised production.

the summer was hot and dry in Idaho and Washington, harvest was delayed due to the late planting dates. Digging began in North Dakota in late August, but progress was slowed by abnormally high temperatures which halted harvest for a short time. Nebraska set a record high yield of 480 cwt per acre, beating out the previous record of 470 set in 2014. Sweet potatoes: Production of sweet potatoes in 2017 totaled 35.6 million cwt, up 13 percent from 2016. Growers harvested 159,300 acres, down 2 percent from the previous year. Yield per acre, at a record high 224 cwt, was up 31 cwt from 2016. Growers in North Carolina, the largest sweet potato-producing State, had a good year as indicated by the 2017 yield which tied the record set in 2014. Acreage was down due to lower prices. Louisiana had heavy rains early in the planting season causing some fields to be re-worked or replanted. Hurricane Harvey led to rainfall events of up to 10 inches in some production areas. Harvest was delayed due to wet conditions. Although yields were negatively affected in some areas of Louisiana, the northern part did not receive as much excess rain as the mid and lower half. Growers in Mississippi were also challenged by excessive water in many fields. Peppermint oil: Production in 2017 totaled 5.78 million pounds, up 1 percent from the previous year. Harvested area was estimated at 60,400 acres, down 5 percent from 2016. Average yield was estimated at 96 pounds of oil per acre, up 6 pounds from a year earlier. Spearmint oil: Production totaled 2.80 million pounds in 2017, down 13 percent from the previous year. Harvested area was estimated at 22,300 acres, down 2,200 acres from a year earlier.

Washington produced 75 percent of the United States hop crop for 2017; while Idaho accounted for 13 percent and Oregon accounted for 11 percent. The 2017 crop year marked the first time Idaho hop production surpassed production in Oregon. Cascade, Centennial, Zeus, Simcoe, Citra, and Mosaic were the six leading varieties in Washington, accounting for 54 percent of the State’s hop production. In Idaho, Zeus, Cascade, Amarillo, Mosaic, Citra, and Chinook were the major varieties, accounting for 69 percent of the State’s hop production. In Oregon, Nugget, Cascade, Willamette, and Citra were the major varieties, accounting for 53 percent of the State’s hop production. Maple syrup: The 2017 United States maple syrup production totaled 4.27 million gallons, up 2 percent from the previous year. The number of taps was estimated at 13.3 million, up 6 percent from the 2016 total. Yield per tap was estimated to be 0.320 gallon, down 4 percent from the previous season. Taro: Hawaii taro production for the 2017 crop year totaled 3.69 million pounds, up 5 percent from the previous year. Harvested area, at 350 acres, was up 40 acres from 2016. Yield for 2017 was 10,530 pounds per acre, down 770 pounds per acre the previous year. Area harvested increased, however yield declined due to more reported crop damage from wild animals, thus keeping the production level stable over the last few years.

Statistical Methodology

Survey procedures: The estimates in this report are based primarily on surveys conducted the first two weeks of December. The December Agricultural Survey (DAS) is a probability survey that includes a sample of approximately 81,800 farm operators selected from a list of producers that ensures all operations in the United States have a chance to be selected. Data from operators was collected by mail, internet, telephone, or personal interview to obtain information on crop acreage, yield and production for the 2017 crop year. Estimating procedures: National and State level objective yield and farm operator reported data (DAS) were reviewed for reasonableness and consistency with historical estimates. The survey data were also reviewed considering weather patterns and crop progress compared with previous years. Each Regional Field Office submits an estimate and written analysis for their State to the Agricultural Statistics Board (ASB). The ASB uses the survey data, administrative data, and the State analysis to prepare the estimates published in this report. Revision policy: Estimates contained in this report may be revised the following year, if new information is available that would justify a change. Estimates will also be reviewed after data for the 5-year Census of Agriculture are available. No revisions will be made after that date. Reliability: The surveys used to make the acreage, yield, and production estimates contained in this report are subject to sampling and non-sampling type errors that are common to all surveys. Reliability of the objective yield and farmer survey must be treated separately because the survey designs for the two surveys are different. The objective yield indications (corn, cotton, and soybeans) are subject to sampling variability because all acres of a given commodity are not included in the sample. The farm operator survey indications are also subject to sampling variability because not all operations with commodities of interest are included in the sample. This variability, as measured by the relative standard error at the National level, is approximately 1.1 for corn, 2.1 for Upland cotton and 1.0 for soybeans. This means that chances are approximately 95 out of 100 that survey estimates for production will be within plus or minus 2.2 percent for corn, 4.2 percent for Upland cotton, and 2.0 percent for soybeans. Survey indications are also subject to non-sampling errors such as omission, duplication, imputation for missing data, and mistakes in reporting, recording, and processing the data. These errors cannot be measured directly, but they are minimized through rigid quality controls in the data collection process and a careful review of all reported data for consistency and reasonableness.
