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.

2007 U.S. Weather Summary
The year featured crop-killing freezes in California in January and the Great Plains and Southeast in April,
severe drought in the Southeast and Southwest, heavy rains in the Plains States through summer, and a hot
summer for most of the Nation. Timely rains kept most of the Corn Belt out of drought during the summer
growing season.
Winter (December 2006 – February 2007): December’s abnormal warmth carried over into early January
2007. January 6 represented the peak of the unseasonable heat in the East, when thermometers reached more
than 70 degrees Fahrenheit as far north as upstate New York.
On January 11, the weather pattern over North America began a major change, and frigid Canadian air
plunged southward, first across the western and central States and eventually the East Coast. Several nights of
subfreezing temperatures severely damaged citrus and other crops in California, as temperatures dipped into
the teens. In the San Joaquin Valley, thermometers dropped to 23 degrees Fahrenheit at Fresno on January 13
and, farther south, Lancaster broke daily-record lows on 6 consecutive days from January 14-19, reaching
3 degrees on the January 14, its lowest January temperature on record. As the cold air edged eastward, warm
air overrunning set the stage for widespread freezing rain across the Plains and Mississippi Valley. The ice
storm that struck the Oklahoma and Missouri area left some 400,000 customers without power on January 12.
The abnormal cold persisted through most of February, resulting in the coldest February Nationwide since
1994. Chicago saw subzero temperatures on February 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7, with a reading of – 10 degrees
Fahrenheit on February 5. On February 4, for the first time in 11 years, daily highs remained below 0 degrees
Fahrenheit in Madison and Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The cold air spreading out over the warmer waters of the
Great Lakes triggered huge snowfalls in upstate New York during February 3-8, Parish measuring a total of
88 inches. In the West, Denver residents saw snow on the ground for the 49 th consecutive day on February 7,
the longest such streak since 1984.
A major Valentine’s Day storm spread large snow totals across the Midwest and Northeast in mid-February,
with 17 inches blanketing Cleveland on February 12-14, and Burlington, Vermont setting an all-time record
with 25.3 inches on the 14th . An enormous winter storm system later in the month tracked northeastward from
Colorado, bringing heavy snow to the upper Midwest on February 23-26, including a record 21 inches at
La Crosse, Wisconsin.
Spring (March – May): Abnormal mild weather returned in March, and the month ended up with coast-tocoast anomalous warmth. Over 900 high temperature records were established, mostly during the week of
March 11-18, and the contiguous U.S. ranked as the second mildest March in 113 years. Monthly
temperatures averaged 10 degrees above normal in parts of the Plains.
A number of intense low-pressure systems led to snow, flooding, or severe weather this month. March 1
rainfall, for example, set a record for the date at 2.38 inches in Asheville, North Carolina. Grand Forks, North
Dakota notched a daily record on March 1, with 9.0 inches of snow. Flooding was widespread early in the
month, with streams over their banks from Iowa to New York. A severe weather outbreak on March 1
resulted in 31 reports of tornadoes in the Midwest and Southeast. Flash flooding struck Texas at mid-month.
A Nor’easter on March 16-17 dropped up to 23 inches of snow in Columbia County in upState New York. A
major winter storm on March 28-29 led to heavy snows in the northern Rockies and severe weather in the
Plains. The resulting blizzard left 6-foot snowdrifts in Wyoming, and there were over 60 reports of tornadoes
in the Plains. Abilene, Texas, measured 4.28 inches of rain for the month, its third wettest March on record.
A massive high pressure system plunging southward from Canada brought record cold during April 7-9 for
much of the eastern half of the country. St. Joseph, Missouri, registered record low temperatures on April 7,
8, and 9, the latter day seeing readings plummet to 20 degrees Fahrenheit. In Arkansas, North Little Rock tied
its April record low with 30 degrees Fahrenheit on the 7 th and 8 th. In Tennessee, Nashville’s 24 degree reading
on the 8 th made this its coldest Easter Sunday since 1940. On the Plains, the 15-degree reading on the 8 th in
Concordia, Kansas was the city’s latest spring reading of 15 degrees or less. The previous warmth and
subsequent early growth of vegetation made this freeze especially damaging to field and tree crops, and
damage was widespread from the Plains to the Southeast.
A major Nor’easter hammered the East Coast on April 15, while heavy rains lashed the Deep South to New
England, and unseasonable snows blanketed northern New England and the higher elevations of upstate New
York. New York City’s 7.57 inches of rain on the 15th was its greatest daily rainfall since 1882.

April also featured outbreaks of severe weather. In the lower Mississippi Valley, there were 594 reports of
large hail and damaging winds on the 3rd, including 14 tornadoes. Another outbreak on April 24 saw
197 reports of severe weather from Texas to Missouri.
Drought became a major concern in the Southeast this spring and intensified during the summer, eventually
reaching a scale of historic proportions. Alabama, Tennessee, and Mississippi recorded the driest
February-April in 113 years of record keeping. Georgia sustained its second driest such period. Florida
notched its second driest April. Farther west, southern California measured its driest November-April on
record.
In contrast, severe weather accompanied by heavy rains struck the southern and central Plains during the
spring. During May 3-7, severe weather, heavy rains, and flooding affected an area extending from Texas to
Minnesota. An EF5 tornado destroyed the town of Greensburg in southwest Kansas on May 4. Extensive
flooding continued into May 10, rivers spilling over their banks in Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri,
Nebraska, Iowa, South Dakota, North Dakota, and Arkansas. The 8.73 inches of rain that inundated
Columbia, South Dakota on May 5-6 established a new State record for 24-hour rainfall. On May 23,
torrential rains of up to 8 inches hit parts of Kansas and the Texas Panhandle.
Summer (June – August): Los Angeles ended up with its driest “rainy season,” defined as July 1 to June 30,
since records began in 1877. The weather station downtown mustered a scant 3.21 inches of rain for the
12 month period. Ample mountain snows in the preceding winter mitigated the impact of the drought on
water supplies, as most reservoirs maintained enough water to avoid major water supply problems.
In the Southeast, however, the dry weather and the onset of the summer heat had a marked impact on
reservoirs as well as crops. By early June, officials declared drought emergencies in 19 counties in northern
and central Alabama. Tropical Storm Barry brought relief to Florida and Georgia during the first days of
June, but drought persisted and even grew worse over interior areas. Four States measured their driest
January-August in a century: Alabama, Tennessee, North Carolina, and Florida. Georgia and Mississippi
earned the number two ranking. By early October, the U.S. Drought Monitor’s highest level of drought, D4,
extended from Alabama and western and northern Georgia into Tennessee, eastern Kentucky, and the
Carolinas.
Farther west, flooding problems continued for the southern and central Plains into summer, Texas recording
its wettest January-August on record. The wetness peaked in June, when low pressure aloft sat over the
southern Plains for some 2 weeks, leading to episodes of torrential rains. On June 29, flood warnings
stretched from southern Texas all the way to central Missouri. Flooding continued into early July. Dallas-Ft.
Worth measured its wettest June-July since 1973, with 16.52 inches of rain.
Heat was one of the biggest stories during the meteorological summer of 2007 (June-August), which was the
sixth-hottest summer on record, but there were exceptions. Much of Texas stayed below normal for the
summer thanks in part to the moist ground. Temperatures soared in July across the West and the northern
Plains. Las Vegas, Nevada, endured 116 degrees on July 5. The reading of 105 degrees at Reno on that day
tied their all-time high temperature. Portland, Oregon, reached 102 degrees on the 10 th. In Boise, Idaho,
temperatures hit 100 degrees F every day from July 12 through 17. The monthly average temperature of
83.1 degrees not only set a record for July, but set a record for the hottest month ever.
Low rainfall and high temperatures led to expansion of drought into much of the interior West and heightened
wildfire danger. Boise, Idaho, measured a mere 0.02 inches of rain for the entire month of July, while
temperatures averaged 8 degrees above normal. By late July, large wildfires were scorching forests across
northern Nevada, eastern Oregon, eastern Washington, Idaho, western Montana, and Utah. The largest fire in
the State’s history burned 363,000 acres in south-central Utah.
Heat was even more widespread in August, the second warmest August in at least 113 years Nationwide. An
historic heat wave gripped the Southeast from around the 6 th to the 17 th, when triple digit heat was
commonplace. Montgomery, Alabama, for example, notched a 100-degree reading every day from August 6
to 17, the 12 consecutive days of century temperatures easily breaking the previous record of 7. Although
somewhat lower temperatures arrived later in the month, eight States in the region (West Virginia, Kentucky,
Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Georgia, and Florida) measured their warmest August
on record. In the West, heat persisted as well, with Utah recording its hottest August.
Tropical weather systems played a role in the southern Plains wetness. Tropical Storm Erin came ashore in
Texas on August 16 and renewed flooding in Texas. San Antonio recorded 8.81 inches of rain on the 16 th.

Over the next few days, the remnants of Erin dropped up to 10 inches of rain on eastern Oklahoma, causing
flooding there as well.
Across the Midwest, Erin’s moisture contributed to torrential rains over Iowa, southern Minnesota, and
southern Wisconsin. During August 18-19, up to 15.10 inches of rain fell in 24 hours in southern Minnesota,
setting a State record. Heavy rains a few days later led to significant flooding in the lower Great Lakes region.
Several cities from Minnesota to Illinois ended up with the wettest month on record, including Madison,
Wisconsin, with an August tally of 15.18 inches.
The upper Midwest, especially Minnesota, had been experiencing drought before August’s heavy rains, due to
below-normal rainfall from May to July. The deluge ended drought in southern Minnesota, but local drought
persisted farther north to year’s end.
For the Corn Belt as a whole this summer, drought on occasion crept northward from the south, affecting
areas near the Ohio River, or touched the northern boundaries, but rains came at the right time for most
farmers, and June-August cumulative rainfall was near to above normal for most of the region, with overall
temperatures averaging just slightly above normal.
Only one hurricane made landfall in the contiguous U.S. this year. Humberto exploded in intensity on
September 13 in the western Gulf of Mexico, ascending from depression strength to a Category 1 hurricane in
less than 24 hours. The storm brought up to 14 inches of rain to east-coastal Texas. The storm did bring
welcomed rains to drought-stricken parts of the Southeast, including nearly 2 inches to Birmingham,
Alabama.
Autumn (September- November): Drought worsened during early October in many parts of the East. But a
storm system that brought widespread severe weather from the Gulf Coast to the Midwest delivered droughtbreaking rains of up to 14 inches to northwest Florida on October 18-19.
Short-term dryness reached extreme levels by October from the mid-Atlantic into New England. In
Washington, DC, October 18 was the 34 th consecutive day without measurable rain, breaking a record going
back over a century. Drought also affected parts of southern New England. Record heat during the first
10 days of the month across the northeast quadrant of the Nation added to the drought problems. A major
frontal system that tapped tropical moisture from the Gulf and Caribbean soaked much of the region during
October 22-27. Baltimore picked up 5.43 inches of rain, and Washington DC recorded 6.18 inches during
October 24-27. In Tennessee, Nashville measured 4.05 inches on October 22-25. Although the rain was not
enough to end the drought in the Southeast, it did reduce the area and intensity of the drought.
On the West Coast, a period of Santa Anna winds led to tragedy in southern California. Winds up to 100 mph
during October 21-23 fanned wildfires across southern California. The flames burned more than 800 square
miles and displaced at least 500,000 people.
Parts of Hawaii experienced drought for much of the year until torrential rains associated with a Kona storm
struck the islands, dropping 7 to 10 inches of rain on much of Oahu during the week ending November 6. Up
to 7 inches of rain fell in 12 hours on November 3-4.
At the same time, the remains of Hurricane Noel slashed the New England coast. On November 3, Barnstable
in Massachusetts measured a peak gust of 89 mph. Two to 4 inches of rain drenched Cape Cod.
In the southern Plains, dry weather became a concern for farmers despite the widespread heavy rains earlier
this year. September rainfall was below normal over large parts of Oklahoma and Texas, and rainfall was
below normal over a large area in October from western Kansas to Texas, with November continuing the dry
pattern except for the Texas upper coast and southwest. By the end of November, cumulative rainfall since
September totaled less than 40 percent of normal from western Kansas into western and southern Texas,
resulting in low topsoil moisture.
December: The last day of the year featured a steady parade of storms bringing rain, ice, snow, and wind to
much of the Nation.
A major Pacific storm slammed into the Pacific Northwest during the first days of the month. Up to 10 inches
of rain inundated coastal areas and, during the storm’s peak on December 2-3, winds gusted to 100 mph along
the Washington and Oregon coasts. Western parts of Oregon and Washington experienced their worst
flooding in over 10 years.

Heavy rains and mountain snows also struck the Southwest during November 30-December 1, with
3.71 inches of precipitation at Flagstaff, Arizona, and 2 feet of snow in southwest Utah.
A major winter storm brought widespread ice and snow to the Midwest on December 1-3, but this was
eclipsed by an even larger ice storm on December 9-10. Freezing rain iced up a large area from Oklahoma to
Kansas and parts of Nebraska, Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana. Ice accumulations from 0.25 to more than
1.0 inch caused massive power outages across the central Plains and paralyzed travel. On December 11, some
618,000 customers had lost their power in Oklahoma, making this their worst ice storm on record. Over
200,000 customers in other States also lost power. A wave forming on the cold front associated with the ice
brought heavy snows to New York and New England on December 13. Up to 12 inches of snow piled up in
Massachusetts, snarling the Boston area commute.
Another large storm system spread snow and sleet from the Midwest to the Northeast on December 15-16. In
the West, heavy rain and snow eased drought in California during December 18-20. Fresno’s 1.64 inches of
rain on the 18 th made this its wettest day since January 2, 2006. Still another winter storm dropped widespread
snow across the Plains on December 22-23, and a later storm dropped several inches of drought-easing
moisture on the Southeast during December 28-30. December 30 was Atlanta’s wettest day (1.30 inches)
since September 13. The improved rains this month prevented Atlanta from recording its driest year, 1954
edging out 2007 for this distinction.
2007 Annual Crop Summary
April: Temperatures averaged near-to-above normal throughout the West with the exception of the Pacific
Northwest. Across the Great Plains and areas eastward, temperatures averaged below normal. Other than in
the Southeast, Southwest, and Intermountain West, near-to-above normal precipitation accumulations fell
across the Nation. The cool, wet weather slowed corn planting activities by month’s end, with 23 percent of
the intended acreage planted, as producers were lagging 19 points behind normal. By months end, producers
of oats, spring wheat, rice, soybeans, sugarbeets, peanuts, and cotton, also faced planting delays. However,
barley and sorghum producers were able to end the month slightly ahead of the normal planting pace.
Meanwhile, winter wheat development was slowed and varying degrees of damage resulted from an
early-April freeze that stretched from the central and southern Plains into the Southeast.
May: Above normal temperatures in the West, Corn Belt, Ohio Valley, and portions of the Great Plains
contrasted with below normal temperatures in the southern Rocky Mountains, southern Great Plains, the Gulf
Coast, and the southern Atlantic Coastal Plains. Extended showers and thunderstorms caused delays in
planting and other fieldwork in the Great Plains from the eastern Dakotas to Texas. Emergence and
development of summer crops progressed well under mostly favorable conditions in the Corn Belt and Ohio
Valley. Lack of moisture in the Southeast delayed planting and slowed crop development.
June: Below-normal temperatures in the central and southern Great Plains and portions of the Atlantic Coastal
Plains and Pacific Coast contrasted with above-normal temperatures elsewhere. Heavy precipitation in the
Great Plains persisted from southern Kansas into Texas, delaying fieldwork and causing flooding. The Corn
Belt and the Atlantic Coast received beneficial rains after an early June drying trend increased stress on
pastures and summer crops. However, unfavorably dry conditions continued across most of the Southeast.
Sorghum, cotton, sunflower, and peanut planting activities, although nearly complete, lagged slightly behind
the normal pace by mid-month. Extreme dryness in Alabama and Georgia, and excessive wetness in
Oklahoma delayed planting, which also delayed cotton squaring and boll setting during the month. Heading
of the rice crop was behind normal in all States except Missouri, with progress in Texas delayed due to
excessive rainfall. Winter wheat harvest lagged well behind normal especially in Kansas, Oklahoma, and
Texas while other small grains developed well ahead of schedule.
July: Hot, dry conditions persisted in the West and stretched eastward into the northern Great Plains. The
central and southern Great Plains experienced below-average temperatures and continued wet conditions
contributed to soggy fields, delaying winter wheat harvest and slowing cotton development. Development
and harvest of other small grains rapidly progressed during the month under mostly favorable weather.
Pockets of unfavorable dryness in the eastern and western Corn Belt were detrimental to crop conditions.
Beneficial showers in the Southeast slightly alleviated drought-like conditions and promoted development of
cotton, peanuts, and other summer crops.
August: Across the northern Rockies and Great Basin August remained hot and dry, with temperatures
averaging near normal to slightly below in the Pacific Northwest. Elsewhere in the West mostly dry
conditions, along with warmer than average temperatures, led to high irrigation demands. In central regions
of the country, temperatures ranged from cooler than average in central and southern Texas and the northern
Crop Production 2007 Summary

NASS, USDA
Great Plains to much warmer than average through the central Great Plains. Six inches or more of rain fell
across areas of the northern Corn Belt and Mid-Atlantic States. Despite early season planting delays, followed
by some early season developmental delays, crop progress was able to reach or exceed the average pace
during the month for all crops except cotton and peanuts. Winter wheat harvest was nearly complete by
month’s end with progress continuing to lag in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas during the month. Barley, oat,
and spring wheat harvest continued ahead of the normal pace in most areas during August.
September: Above normal temperatures prevailed nearly nationwide, while heavy rainfall accumulations
were received in the western Corn Belt, Delta, southern Great Plains, and Florida. Light to moderate levels of
moisture fell across the rest of the country, with minimal accumulations in California, the High Plains, and the
northern Atlantic Coastal Plains where drought conditions continued due to below normal precipitation. Corn
and soybean acreage rapidly matured, advancing ahead of the 5-year average pace and by month’s end harvest
of both crops was well underway. Although corn, rice, and soybean harvest was ahead of normal, sunflower,
and peanut harvest was slightly behind. Sorghum development and harvest also continued ahead of schedule.
Although, cotton acreage with open bolls was lagging due to the Southeastern drought, harvest was
progressing at the normal pace. Winter wheat planting was underway by early September with all States,
except those in the Pacific Northwest, behind the average pace early in the month. Delays continued as the
month progressed, especially in the central and southern Great Plains.
October: Notable October precipitation in the West was limited to the Pacific Northwest and northwest
Wyoming. Abundant precipitation was also received across most of the eastern half of the Nation. The
exceptions were parts of the Southeast, middle Mississippi Valley, and western Gulf Coast. In the Pacific
Northwest, Great Basin, and most of California, temperatures during the month were cooler than average.
Throughout the rest of the Nation, temperatures averaged above normal. Corn and soybean harvest neared
completion by month’s end across most of the Corn Belt which allowed winter wheat planting to rapidly
progress. However, planting progress and emergence continued to lag behind normal in the Great Plains due
to a lack of precipitation. Harvest was slightly ahead of normal for sorghum, cotton, and rice but slightly
behind for peanuts, sunflowers, and sugarbeets.
November: In the Pacific Northwest, heavy precipitation fell west of the Cascade Mountains, while other
areas west of the Rocky Mountains experienced light to moderate precipitation. Throughout the Great Plains,
the northwestern Corn Belt, and along the Atlantic Coastal Plains, precipitation during the month was
extremely light and scattered. In the southern and eastern areas of the Corn Belt, moderate precipitation was
evident while from east Texas stretching north and east into New England, moderate to heavy rainfall was
experienced during the month. Temperatures ranged within 4 degrees Fahrenheit of normal for most of the
Nation during November. Producers finished harvesting summer crops by mid-November in most areas.
However, cotton harvest continued at a rapid pace in Texas, Oklahoma, and parts of the Southeast after
mid-month. Peanut harvest continued behind the normal pace due to dry conditions in the Southeast. As
winter wheat planting was winding down for all States except Arkansas, California, Missouri, North Carolina,
and Texas by November 11, emergence of the crop remained behind normal, especially in Oklahoma and
Texas where producers were late getting the crop seeded and rainfall was light.
Corn: U.S. corn for grain production is estimated at a record high 13.1 billion bushels, down 1 percent from
the November forecast but up 24 percent from 2006. The average U.S. grain yield is estimated at
151.1 bushels per acre, down 1.9 bushels from November but 2.0 bushels above 2006. This is the second
highest yield on record, behind 2004. Regionally, estimated yields are higher than last year across the Great
Plains where frequent rainfall throughout much of the growing season provided abundant soil moisture for
growth and development. Yield estimates are also higher in the middle Mississippi Valley, Delta, and
Southeast where timely rains in most areas were beneficial. Yields in the northern Corn Belt, Ohio Valley,
Tennessee Valley, Mid-Atlantic, and Northeast are generally lower than a year ago as scarce precipitation and
above normal temperatures during much of the growing season depleted soil moisture supplies and stressed
the crop.
Planted area, at 93.6 million acres, is up 19 percent from last year to the highest level since 1944. Corn
planted acreage is up in nearly all States as favorable corn prices, driven by growing demand from ethanol
producers and strong export sales, encouraged farmers to plant more acres to corn. The increase in corn
planted acres is partially offset by fewer acres of soybeans in the Corn Belt and Great Plains and fewer acres
of cotton in the Delta and Southeast. Record high planted acres were set in California, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana,
Minnesota, and North Dakota. Area harvested for grain, at 86.5 million acres, is up 22 percent from 2006 to
the highest level since 1933. Illinois growers harvested a record high 13.1 million acres, up 1.90 million acres
from last year, while farmers in Iowa harvested a record high 13.9 million acres, up 1.50 million acres from a
year ago. Record high corn for grain acres were also harvested in Idaho, Indiana, Minnesota, North Dakota,
and South Dakota.
Crop Production 2007 Summary
January 2008
80
Agricultural Statistics Board
NASS, USDA
The 2007 corn objective yield survey data indicate the highest number of ears per acre on record for the
combined 10 objective yield States (Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio,
South Dakota, and Wisconsin), surpassing the previous record set in 2004. Indicated ears per acre are higher
than 2006 in all objective yield States, with record highs being set in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Nebraska, and
Wisconsin.
Corn silage production is estimated at 106 million tons, up 1 percent from 2006. The U.S. silage yield is
estimated at 17.5 tons per acre in 2007, up 1.3 tons from last year. Area harvested for silage, at 6.07 million
acres, is down 6 percent from a year ago.
Corn planting got off to a slow start as melting snow and above normal precipitation across much of the Corn
Belt and Great Plains during March and April left many fields too soggy for field preparations and planting
activities. Early-April freezes occurred from the central and southern Great Plains into the Southeast,
temporarily halting planting progress and causing varying degrees of damage to emerged corn. By April 29,
corn planting was 23 percent complete, 25 percentage points behind a year earlier and 19 points behind
normal.
Excessive rainfall in parts of the central and southern Great Plains, western Corn Belt, and middle Mississippi
Valley during much of May continued to hamper corn planting activities. Meanwhile, warm, dry conditions
prevailed across the central and eastern Corn Belt and Ohio Valley during May, which promoted planting
activity and crop development. However, the lack of precipitation in these areas reduced soil moisture
supplies and increased stress on the crop. Despite the weather related delays in some areas, producers made
rapid planting progress during the month, and by May 27, planting was 97 percent complete, 1 percentage
point ahead of 2006 and 4 points ahead of average. Emergence of the crop began behind normal due to the
slow early season planting pace. However, generally above normal temperatures favored crop development
and by June 10, ninety-nine percent of the crop had emerged, 2 points ahead of 2006 and 4 points ahead of
normal.
Growing conditions varied considerably by region during the early to mid-summer months. Showers and
thunderstorms continued in the central and southern Great Plains during much of June and July, which
hampered fieldwork but provided abundant soil moisture. Farther east, a dry pattern persisted across the
eastern Corn Belt, Ohio Valley, and Tennessee Valley during much of June, further stressing the corn crop.
Much needed rains provided some drought relief to these areas in late June and early July, however, moisture
shortages continued to be a concern. Unfavorable dryness also persisted in parts of the northern Corn Belt and
Atlantic Coast States throughout much of July, while in the Southeast, excessively dry conditions during June
were eased somewhat by beneficial rainfall during July.
Heavy rainfall across the northern Corn Belt and adjacent areas of the Great Plains during August provided
much needed moisture for the crop. However, the abundant moisture caused some lowland flooding,
particularly across the upper Midwest. Meanwhile, extremely hot, dry weather across the southern tier of the
Corn Belt, Tennessee Valley, and Mid-Atlantic States during August continued to deplete soil moisture
supplies and deteriorate crop conditions. Corn fields across the Nation progressed rapidly during August
under warmer than normal conditions, and by September 2, ninety-six percent of the crop had reached the
dough stage or beyond, the same as 2006 but 4 points ahead of normal.
The corn crop continued to progress ahead of the average pace during September, especially in the Corn Belt
where crop development was well ahead of normal. By mid-month, 96 percent of the Nation’s corn acreage
had reached the dent stage or beyond, the same as 2006 but 6 points ahead of average. By month’s end,
91 percent of the crop had reached maturity, 5 points ahead of a year earlier and 10 points ahead of normal.
Corn harvesting began ahead of schedule and continued without major delays throughout the month. By
September 30, the corn harvest was 31 percent complete, 13 and 11 points ahead of 2006 and average,
respectively.
Warm temperatures and mostly dry conditions across much of the northern and central Great Plains and Corn
Belt during the first two weeks of October aided crop maturation and promoted a faster-than-normal harvest
pace. Several storm systems brought locally heavy showers to these areas around the middle of the month
which soaked fields and hindered harvest activities. Drier weather returned in late October, which favored a
gradual resumption of harvest. However, lingering wetness-related disruptions continued to delay the corn
harvest in parts of the eastern Great Plains and western Corn Belt. Despite the weather delays in some areas,
the overall corn harvest continued to progress ahead of normal throughout the month, due in part to the early
crop maturation. By October 28, the corn harvest was 73 percent complete, 8 points ahead of 2006 and
4 points ahead of average. Harvest progress was ahead of normal in all States except Iowa, Missouri, North
Dakota, Pennsylvania, and South Dakota.

Corn harvest activities neared completion in many areas in early November, particularly across the central and
eastern Corn Belt. Snow and rain showers were evident in the Great Lakes region, however, dry weather
continued to favor late-season corn harvesting across the remainder of the Midwest. The corn harvest also
continued with few delays in the Great Plains, despite a transition to cooler conditions. On November 18, the
corn harvest was 97 percent complete, 4 points ahead of 2006 and 3 points ahead of normal. Harvest progress
was at or ahead of normal in all States.
Sorghum: Grain production in 2007 is estimated at 505 million bushels, down 2 percent from the November
forecast but 82 percent above 2006. Planted area is estimated at 7.72 million acres, up 18 percent from last
year. Area harvested for grain, at 6.81 million acres, is up 38 percent from 2006. Average grain yield, at
74.2 bushels per acre, is down 2.6 bushels from the previous forecast but up 18 bushels from last year.
Kansas led the Nation in area planted for all purposes and grain production, while Texas led the Nation for
silage production. Area harvested for grain increased from last year in 16 of the 21 estimating States, with
Texas showing the largest increase at 88 percent above 2006 while Kansas increased 6 percent. Yields are at
or above last year in all States, except California, Illinois, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Tennessee with
substantial increases experienced throughout the Great Plains. The yield in the two largest producing States of
Kansas and Texas increased 22 and 18 bushels per acre, respectively, from 2006.
Silage production is estimated at 6.21 million tons, up 34 percent from 2006. Area cut for silage is
399,000 acres, up 15 percent from the previous year. Silage acres increased or remained unchanged from
2006 in all States except Oklahoma and South Carolina. Silage yields averaged 15.6 tons per acre, up 2.2 tons
per acre from last year. In the two largest producing States of Kansas and Texas, producers experienced
substantial yield and production increases. Record yields were set in Texas and Arkansas and tied the record
yield in Kansas and Nebraska.
Planting began at a fast pace but wet weather in May delayed planting in some areas and adequate to abundant
precipitation throughout the major producing States aided the crop development and condition considerably
compared with the previous year. Warm dry weather conditions promoted maturation and allowed for early
harvest of sorghum. By October 21, ninety-four percent of the acreage was at or beyond maturity and
62 percent was harvested, both 11 and 9 points ahead of last year and normal, respectively. Harvest continued
ahead of normal in most States with 97 percent of the crop harvested by November 18.
Oats: The 2007 production is estimated at a record low 91.6 million bushels, unchanged from the Small
Grain 2007 Summary but down 2 percent from last year. The estimated yield is 60.9 bushels per acre, up
1.1 bushels from the previous year. Area planted to oats is estimated at a record low 3.76 million acres, down
10 percent from 2006. Harvested area, at 1.51 million acres, is 4 percent below last year. This is the smallest
acreage harvested for grain on record, continuing a steady downward trend. The largest decline occurred in
Wisconsin, where area harvested for grain decreased 70,000 acres from last year.
Compared with last year, yields increased in most States throughout the Great Plains and central Rocky
Mountains. In Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota, favorable growing conditions led to yield
increases from last year of 17 bushels or more. Yields declined from last year in the Pacific Northwest, the
Ohio Valley and adjacent areas, and the middle Mississippi Valley. The largest declines in yield occurred in
Indiana and Washington, where hot, dry weather hampered crop development. Yields in Indiana and
Washington declined 25 bushels from 2006.
During early spring, planting of the oat crop lagged behind the normal pace. By April 29, growers had
planted 62 percent of their acreage, 11 points behind normal. During April, emergence also trailed behind the
normal pace. By the end of April, emergence was 35 percent complete, 12 points behind the 5-year average
and 13 points behind last year. However, by mid-May, the oat crop had advanced to 98 percent planted,
3 points ahead of normal, with all major producing States at or ahead of their normal planting pace with the
exception of South Dakota.
Through June, crop development was at or ahead of normal in all major oat-producing States. As of July 1,
eighty-nine percent of the oat acreage was headed, 9 points ahead of the 5-year average. The crop was most
advanced in Texas and Ohio, where 100 percent and 99 percent, respectively, was at or beyond the heading
stage. Progress was ahead of the normal pace in all major producing States except Nebraska.
By the end of July, 51 percent of the oat acreage was harvested, the same as last year but 9 points ahead of the
normal pace. Texas was nearly complete at 96 percent harvested with progress in Nebraska following closely
behind at 88 percent. In North Dakota, only 10 percent of the oat crop was harvested, which was only 1 point

behind normal but was 25 points behind last year’s pace. By August 26, harvest was 98 percent complete in
the major producing States, 5 points ahead of normal.
Barley: Production is estimated at 212 million bushels, unchanged from the Small Grains 2007 Summary but
up 18 percent from last year. Average yield per acre, at 60.4 bushels, is 0.7 bushel below 2006. The area
harvested for grain is estimated at 3.51 million acres, 19 percent above a year ago. Harvested acreage is up in
the top four barley-producing States from the previous season. Acreage harvested is up 40,000 in Idaho,
100,000 in Montana, 395,000 in North Dakota, and 35,000 in Washington resulting in higher production that
last year. Production is down from last year throughout the Great Basin, Ohio Valley, and most of the
Mid-Atlantic States. Lower yields due to low levels of precipitation during the growing season and lower
acreage harvested contributed to the decrease in these areas. However, production levels increased from last
year across nearly the entire northern tier of the country, from the Pacific to Maine, as well as in Arizona,
Colorado, and Maryland.
Planting was delayed early in the season in Minnesota, North Dakota, and Washington, three major producing
States, causing emergence to lag behind normal through the first week of May. However, progress
accelerated to well ahead of normal later in the Spring and into early Summer. Heading advanced well ahead
of normal for most of the season. The condition of the crop was rated between 70 and 80 percent good and
excellent through most of the season but began to decline just before harvest started. Beginning harvest
slightly ahead of schedule, producers were able to continue harvesting the crop well ahead of the normal pace
and finish by early September.
All Wheat: Production totals 2.07 billion bushels in 2007, unchanged from the Small Grains 2007 Summary
but up 14 percent from 2006. Grain area is 51.0 million acres, up 9 percent from last year. The U.S. yield is
40.5 bushels per acre, up 1.8 bushels from last year. The level of production and change from last year by
type are: winter wheat, 1.52 billion bushels, up 17 percent; other spring wheat, 479 million bushels, up
4 percent; Durum wheat, 71.7 million bushels, up 34 percent.
Winter Wheat: The 2007 winter wheat production is estimated at 1.52 billion bushels, unchanged from the
Small Grains 2007 Summary but up 17 percent from last year. The U.S. yield is 42.2 bushels per acre, up
0.5 bushel from last year’s final yield. Area harvested for grain is estimated at 36.0 million acres, up
16 percent from the previous year. Hard Red Winter harvested acreage is up about 21 percent from the
previous year while Soft Red Winter harvested acreage is up about 15 percent.
Hard Red Winter (HRW) harvested acreage is up significantly from last year mostly due to improved moisture
conditions in the Great Plains States. Rains that broke last year’s drought persisted throughout much of the
growing season. Kansas was the only State in the region that did not increase harvested acres from 2006.
Rains throughout June caused flooding and delayed harvest in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. In Texas,
wheat production was up 418 percent from last year’s drought stricken crop. Overall, Texas experienced very
little crop failure due to the above normal precipitation and below normal temperatures this year, except in the
eastern wheat producing regions where some acres were destroyed due to flooding. Oklahoma’s production is
up 20 percent from 2006. The season began under ideal conditions but an Easter freeze and an unprecedented
17 straight days of rain during June took a toll on the crop’s quality. The rains came as operators were
beginning harvest and caused many fields to be completely abandoned. Overall, HRW production totals
962 million bushels, up 41 percent from last year’s 682 million bushels.
Favorable conditions during the Fall resulted in more acreage planted to wheat across most of the Soft Red
Winter (SRW) growing region, except the eastern Corn Belt where wet conditions limited plantings. This is
the second straight year of larger planted area in the southern SRW growing areas with harvested area also
increasing sharply. Several of the northern SRW States’ harvested area is down mainly due to smaller planted
acreage along with an early April freeze that caused more abandonment than normal. In Wisconsin, harvested
acreage is a record surpassing last year’s level. Production of SRW is down from last year when record high
yields were realized in many States. Weather played a major role in this year’s production with yields in most
States coming in at more normal levels. The crop’s yield potential was good early in the growing season until
the April freeze damaged the crop and caused conditions in many of the SRW States to decline. Overall,
SRW production is 358 million bushels, down 8 percent from last year when 390 million bushels were
produced.
White Winter production is 197 million bushels, down 13 percent from last year. Harvested acreage in the
Pacific Northwest States (Idaho, Oregon, and Washington) are at or below last year’s level. In Idaho and
Washington, yields are down from last year due to a lack of rain and unseasonably high temperatures during
the growing season. Even though the Oregon crop faced dry weather in May and June, conditions improved
and yields ended up better than a year ago.

Other Spring Wheat: Production for 2007 is estimated at 479 million bushels, unchanged from the Small
Grains 2007 Summary but up 4 percent from last year. Harvested area is 12.9 million acres, down 7 percent
from 2006. The U.S. yield is 37.0 bushels per acre, up 3.8 bushels from last year.
Spring wheat planting in the six major producing States started off behind normal mostly due to colder than
normal temperatures in April. However, planting had progressed ahead of normal by the end of May due to
warm and dry weather across much of the growing area. The crop’s development and maturation was
accelerated by warm temperatures and timely rains during June. Hot and dry weather during July caused the
crop condition ratings to decline but pushed maturation and harvest progress ahead of the normal pace in all
States in the growing area. The yield potential of the crop was also limited by this hot and dry weather.
Yields are at or above last year’s level in all States except Colorado, Idaho, and Washington. Yields in North
Dakota and South Dakota are up 5 and 9 bushels, respectively, from last year’s drought stressed crop.
Durum Wheat: Production for 2007 totals 71.7 million bushels, unchanged from the Small Grains 2007
Summary but up 34 percent from the previous year. Grain area harvested is 2.11 million acres, up 16 percent
from the previous year. The U.S. yield is estimated at 33.9 bushels per acre, up 4.4 bushels from 2006. In the
northern Great Plains, warm weather during the months of June and July accelerated crop development and
timely rains increased the yield from last year. Yields are at or above last year’s level in all States except
Idaho and California.
Rice: Production in 2007 is estimated at 197 million cwt, down less than 1 percent from the November
forecast but up 2 percent from last year’s crop. Planted area, at 2.76 million acres, is down 3 percent from
2006. Area for harvest, at 2.75 million acres, is also down 3 percent from last year. The average yield for all
U.S. rice is estimated at a record high 7,185 pounds per acre, 317 pounds above the 2006 yield and
197 pounds higher than the previous record of 6,988 pounds set in 2004.
Planted and harvested area are up from last year in California and Louisiana, while Arkansas, Missouri, and
Texas acreage declined. Mississippi acreage was unchanged from 2006. Record high yields were attained in
Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Missouri. The record yields resulted from good weather conditions
during the growing season and little weed and insect pressure.
Long grain rice yielded 6,929 pounds per acre across the Nation with production at 142 million cwt. Medium
grain rice yielded 8,124 pounds per acre in 2007 with production at 51.2 million cwt. Short grain rice yielded
6,197 pounds per acre with production at 4.09 million cwt.
Rye: Production for 2007 is estimated at 7.91 million bushels, unchanged from the Small Grains 2007
Summary but up 10 percent from last year. Harvested area totals 289,000 acres, up 15,000 acres from 2006.
The U.S. yield, at 27.4 bushels per acre, is up 1.1 bushels from last year. Oklahoma leads the Nation in
production with 1.08 million bushels produced in 2007. Good moisture conditions in the State contributed to
the higher yield and production level compared with the drought stricken 2006 crop.
Proso Millet: Production of proso millet for 2007 is estimated at 16.6 million bushels, up 63 percent from
2006 and 22 percent higher than 2005. Planted area, at 570,000 acres, is down 2 percent from 2006 while
harvested area, at 515,000 acres, is up 8 percent. Harvested area and yield increased from last year in all three
States in the estimating program (Colorado, Nebraska, and South Dakota). The average yield is estimated at
32.3 bushels per acre, up 10.8 bushels from last year. This is the highest proso millet yield since the
33.2 bushel yield in 2001.
All Hay: Production of dry hay for 2007 is estimated at 150 million tons, up 2 percent from the
October 1 forecast and up 6 percent from the 2006 total. Area harvested, at 61.6 million acres, is down
slightly from the October forecast but up 1 percent from 2006. The average yield, at 2.44 tons per acre, is up
0.05 ton from October and up 0.10 ton from the previous year.
Alfalfa and Alfalfa Mixtures: Hay production in 2007 is estimated at 72.6 million tons, up slightly from the
October 1 forecast and less than 1 percent above 2006. Harvested area, at 21.7 million acres, is 1 percent
above the October forecast and the previous year. The average yield is 3.35 tons per acre, 0.02 ton below the
previous forecast and 0.01 ton below 2006.
Compared with 2006, States in the northern Great Plains showed the largest increase in harvested acreage
from last year. South Dakota growers harvested 450,000 acres more than last year, North Dakota growers
harvested 200,000 acres more while Montana farmers harvested 100,000 acres more. Minnesota showed the
largest decrease, down 200,000 acres from last year, while California decreased 110,000 acres. Yields are

down in Great Lakes, Ohio Valley, and Tennessee Valley regions but yields are up in the northern and
southern Great Plains.
All Other Hay: Production in 2007 totaled 77.7 million tons, up 3 percent from the October 1 forecast and
up 11 percent from 2006. Area for harvest, at 40.0 million acres, is down 1 percent from October but
1 percent above last year. The average yield is estimated at 1.95 tons per acre, up 0.08 ton from October and
up 0.17 ton from last year.
Nearly all States west of the Mississippi experienced higher yields or unchanged yields from the previous year
except Arizona and Minnesota which are down 0.1 ton and 0.2 ton per acre respectively. Texas and
Oklahoma recorded the largest yield increases of 1.2 and 1.0 ton per acre, respectively. Nearly all States east
of the Mississippi River experienced lower yields than last year with yields in North Carolina, Tennessee,
Kentucky, and Pennsylvania all down 0.9 ton and yields in Illinois and Indiana down 0.5 ton per acre. States
with a 100,000 acres or more increase in harvested area from last year, are South Dakota, Texas, Kentucky,
Montana, Arkansas, and Virginia, while States having fewer harvested acres were led by New York, off
210,000; North Dakota, down 140,000; and Wisconsin, down 120,000 acres.
Forage: Eighteen States participate in the forage estimation program, which measures annual production of
forage crops, with an emphasis on total alfalfa 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
2007 all haylage and greenchop production for the 18 States in the forage program is 29.2 million tons, of
which 20.9 million tons are from alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures. Wisconsin, the leading haylage and greenchop
producing State, harvested 1.45 million acres of all haylage and greenchop in 2007, of which 1.35 million
were alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures. All 2007 haylage and greenchop acreage in Wisconsin is 6 percent below
the previous year. The 18 State total forage area harvested is 37.4 million acres, including 16.0 million acres
from alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures. The total forage harvested area is slightly lower than 2006 but the total
forage production is up 6 percent from the last year.
New Seedings of Alfalfa and Alfalfa Mixtures: Growers seeded 2.83 million acres of alfalfa and alfalfa
mixtures during 2007, down 11 percent from the 2006 seeded area of 3.18 million acres. The largest decrease
occurred in Wisconsin, down 130,000 acres from 2006. 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 2007 is estimated at 3.74 billion pounds, up 8 percent from the
November 1 forecast and 2006. Planted area, at 1.23 million acres, is down 1 percent from 2006 and
represents the lowest planted acreage in the U.S. since 1915. Area for harvest is estimated at 1.20 million
acres, down 1 percent from last year and the lowest since 1930. The U.S. yield is estimated at 3,130 pounds
per acre, 217 pounds above the November forecast and up 267 pounds from 2006.
Production in the Southeast States (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, and South Carolina) totals
2.60 billion pounds, up 3 percent from 2006. Area planted in the region totals 898,000 acres, down 6 percent
from 2006. Harvested area, at 870,000 acres, is also down 6 percent from the previous year. The average
yield in the Southeast region is 2,989 pounds per acre, 279 pounds above the 2006 average. All States in the
region reported higher average yields in 2007 compared with 2006. Mississippi’s yield of 3,300 pounds per
acre represents a new record high. Much of the region experienced good yields despite drought conditions
through most of the year. The good yields were attributed to very timely and beneficial rainfall, or very active
irrigation.
Virginia-North Carolina production is estimated at 309 million pounds, down 4 percent from 2006. Planted
area, at 114,000 acres, is up 12 percent from 2006. Harvested area, at 111,000 acres, is up 10 percent from
2006. The average yield in the Virginia-North Carolina region is estimated at 2,781 pounds per acre, down
419 pounds from 2006.
Southwest peanut production (New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas), at 831 million pounds, is up 34 percent
from the previous year. Area planted in the region, at 218,000 acres, is up 15 percent from 2006, while
harvested area, at 214,000 acres, is up 20 percent from 2006. Yields in the region averaged 3,885 pounds per
acre, 418 pounds above 2006. Record high yields were attained in both Oklahoma and Texas.
Canola: Production in 2007 is 1.45 billion pounds, up 4 percent from 2006 but down 3 percent from the
October forecast. The yield, at 1,250 pounds per acre, is down 116 pounds from last year’s yield and down
62 pounds from October. Planted area is estimated at 1.18 million acres, 13 percent above last year’s acreage.
Harvested area, at 1.16 million acres, is up 14 percent from 2006. Production in North Dakota, the leading

canola-producing State, is estimated at 1.33 billion pounds, up 4 percent from last year due to a 14 percent
increase in harvested acreage.
Sunflower: The 2007 sunflower production totals 2.89 billion pounds, up 35 percent from 2006 but down
28 percent from 2005. The U.S. average yield per acre increased 226 pounds from last year to 1,437 pounds.
Planted area, at 2.07 million acres, is 6 percent above last year but 24 percent below 2005. Area harvested
increased 14 percent from last year to 2.01 million acres.
Production in North Dakota, the leading sunflower-producing State, is estimated at 1.49 billion pounds, up
34 percent from 2006. The yield in North Dakota, at 1,414 pounds per acre, is up 118 pounds from 2006.
Compared with last year, planted and harvested area in North Dakota increased by 19 and 23 percent,
respectively. Yields, compared with last year, are up in all major sunflower-producing States except
Minnesota. The yield in Minnesota, at 1,508 pounds per acre, is down 248 pounds from last year’s yield of
1,756 pounds per acre, which was the second highest yield on record.
U.S. production of oil-type sunflower varieties, at 2.50 billion pounds, increased 40 percent from 2006.
Harvested acres are up 13 percent from the previous year and the yield increased by 273 pounds to
1,454 pounds per acre. A record high yield for oil type sunflower varieties in Texas was set at 1,700 pounds
per acre.
Production of non-oil sunflower varieties, at 392 million pounds, increased 10 percent from last year. Area
harvested, at 292,500 acres, is up 14 percent from 2006. The average yield decreased by 50 pounds from last
year to 1,339 pounds per acre. The record high yield for non-oil sunflower varieties was tied in South Dakota,
at 1,700 pounds per acre.
As harvest of sunflowers began in late September, progress in Colorado was well ahead of normal but lagged
behind normal in Kansas and South Dakota. As of September 30, harvest was already 39 percent complete in
Colorado, compared with the 5-year average of 12 percent. Meanwhile, Kansas and South Dakota were 9 and
7 points behind normal, respectively. Through October, harvest in the four major producing States progressed
behind last year and the 5-year average as periods of heavy rain during the month slowed harvest. By
October 28, harvest was 50 percent complete, compared with 64 percent last year and the 5-year average of
58 percent. By November 18, conditions had improved and harvest progressed to 96 percent complete.
Soybeans: Production in 2007 totals 2.59 billion bushels, down slightly from the November forecast and
19 percent below the record high production of 2006. The average yield per acre is estimated at 41.2 bushels,
0.1 bushel below the November forecast and 1.5 bushels below last year’s yield. Planted area for the Nation,
at 63.6 million acres, is down 16 percent from 2006. Soybean growers harvested 62.8 million acres, also
down 16 percent from last year but up fractionally from November.
Yields are down from last year across most of the eastern and northern Corn Belt, most of the Atlantic Coast
States, and Tennessee. The biggest declines from last year occurred in Kentucky and Tennessee, down 18 and
21 bushels from 2006, respectively, as hot summer weather combined with very little rain to limit soybean
yields. Meanwhile, yields are up from last year across the Great Plains, the Delta States, Alabama, Georgia,
Iowa, and Pennsylvania. The largest increases from last year are in Mississippi and Texas, where yields
increased 14 and 13 bushels, respectively, as timely rains during the season produced new record high yields
for both States. Record high yields were also set in Louisiana and South Dakota, and record high yields were
tied in Nebraska and Ohio.
The 2007 soybean objective yield survey data indicate that final average pod counts were higher than last year
in eight of the eleven objective yield program States. Pod counts were lower than last year in Illinois, Indiana,
and Missouri.
Planting of the 2007 soybean crop started off slowly in most of the major growing areas as wet, cool weather
slowed progress and many farmers were focusing their efforts on planting corn. By the end of April, nearly
all States were at or behind of the normal pace. Heavy spring rains across the Great Plains and western Corn
Belt during the first week of May further hindered planting efforts with only 10 percent of the intended
acreage planted nationally by May 6. However, as fields dried and corn planting finished, producers
concentrated on soybeans and planting progressed rapidly during the rest of May. As of June 3, eighty-eight
percent of intended soybeans were planted, with only Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska, and South Dakota
continuing to lag behind normal. The crop began emerging slightly behind normal in mid-May, but advanced
rapidly thereafter, reaching 70 percent emerged by June 3, fourteen points ahead of the 5-year average.

During June, soybean planting continued to progress ahead of the normal pace in most areas and was
completed at or ahead of normal pace in all States except for Kansas and North Dakota. In general, the U.S.
crop progressed rapidly during June and July, with plant emergence and blooming ahead of normal in most
States. The main exception was in Kansas, where blooming progressed behind normal during the entire
month of July as excessive rain slowed development. By July 29, eighty-five percent of the Nation’s crop was
blooming, 1 percentage point behind last year but 4 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Fifty-one
percent of the acreage was setting pods by July 29, compared with last year’s 50 percent and the 5-year
average of 41 percent.
Although the hot weather during July caused the crop to mature rapidly, it had a negative impact on the
condition of the soybean crop. As of July 1, sixty-eight percent of the soybean crop was rated good to
excellent. By the end of July, only 58 percent of the crop was rated as good to excellent. Hot temperatures
during July caused crop conditions to deteriorate across much of the northern and western Corn Belt. During
July, good to excellent ratings decreased in Michigan and Minnesota by 34 and 35 points, respectively, and
decreased by more than 10 points in Iowa, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. Meanwhile, dry
conditions prevailed across much of the Southeast during July. In North Carolina, good to excellent ratings
decreased by 12 points during the month to 39 percent, compared with 61 percent at the same time last year.
During August, conditions continued to decline across most of the Southeast, southern Corn Belt, Delta, and
Tennessee Valley as hot temperatures for much of the month stressed the crop. As of September 2, fifty-six
percent of the U.S. soybean crop was rated good to excellent, 3 points below the same week in 2006. The
largest decline during the month was seen in Kentucky, where only 16 percent of the crop was rated good to
excellent as of September 2, a decline of 53 points during August. In contrast, conditions did improve slightly
during August across the northern Great Plains, the northern Corn Belt, and Ohio as needed rains fell in those
areas. However, there were instances of flooding from heavy rains at times in these areas. The crop set pods
on pace with last year but ahead of the 5-year average throughout the month, reaching 96 percent by
August 26.
Nationally, the soybean crop continued to mature ahead of normal during September, as plants dropped leaves
at a pace ahead of last year and the 5-year average. As of September 30, eighty-eight percent of the crop was
dropping leaves or beyond, 3 points ahead of last year and 4 points ahead of normal. Crop conditions
generally improved or remained unchanged during September in the Corn Belt and the central Great Plains.
Besides the Dakotas and Louisiana, the only other State to show a decline in crop conditions during the month
was North Carolina, which continued to be affected by drought conditions along with most of the Southeast.
As of September 30, twenty-nine percent of the crop was harvested, 11 points ahead of last year’s pace and
5 points ahead of the 5-year average. However, harvest had slowed to a more normal pace by mid-October as
heavy rains across the Great Plains and into the western Corn Belt slowed harvest around the middle of the
month. As of October 14, harvest was 66 percent complete, equal to last year but only 1 point ahead of
normal. By the end of October, harvest lagged behind normal in Iowa, the Great Plains, and the Great Lakes
region, but was at or ahead of the normal pace across the remainder of the country. By November 11,
conditions had allowed harvest to progress to 97 percent complete, 3 points ahead of last year and the 5-year
average.
Flaxseed: Production of flaxseed in 2007 totaled 5.90 million bushels, down 46 percent from last year and
70 percent below 2005. The average yield is estimated at 16.9 bushels per acre, up 2.5 bushels from 2006.
Planted area for the 2007 crop is estimated at 354,000 acres, down 56 percent from last year. Planted acreage
is down significantly in all four States in the estimating program (Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, and
South Dakota) as favorable prices for other crops discouraged some producers from planting flaxseed.
Harvested area, at 349,000 acres, is down 54 percent from 2006.
In North Dakota, the leading flaxseed State, production totaled 5.55 million bushels, down 46 percent from
2006. Growers harvested 317,000 acres of flaxseed in 2007, down 56 percent from last year to the lowest
level since 1998. The average yield in North Dakota is estimated at 17.5 bushels per acre, up 3.0 bushels from
last year.
Safflower: Production of safflower in 2007, at 209 million pounds, is up 6 percent from the revised 2006
production. Growers planted 180,000 acres in 2007, a decrease of 5 percent from last year, while harvested
area, at 172,000 acres, is down 4 percent from the previous year. The yield, at 1,215 pounds per acre,
increased 115 pounds from 2006. California producers led the Nation, producing 114 million pounds of
safflower.

Other Oilseeds: Mustard seed production in 2007 increased 13 percent from last year to 31.8 million pounds,
the first time since 2002 that production increased compared with the previous year. Planted area, at
56,000 acres, is up 38 percent and harvested area, at 52,800 acres, is up 35 percent from 2006. Yields
averaged 603 pounds per acre, 117 pounds below a year ago.
Rapeseed production increased as well, up 18 percent from 2006 to 1.30 million pounds. Despite the increase,
production is the third smallest since records began in 1991. Growers planted 1,500 acres of rapeseed in
2007, an increase of 100 acres from last year. Harvested area, at 1,000 acres, is unchanged from last year.
The average yield is 1,300 pounds per acre, up 200 pounds from last year.
Cotton: Upland cotton production is estimated at 18.2 million 480-pound bales, up slightly from the
December 1 forecast but down 13 percent from last year. The U.S. yield for upland cotton is estimated at
857 pounds per acre, up 7 pounds from last month and up 51 pounds from last year’s yield. The yield will be
the largest on record, surpassing the previous record high of 843 pounds per acre set in 2004. Harvested area,
at 10.2 million acres, is down less than 1 percent from last month and 18 percent below last year. Upland
planted area, estimated at 10.5 million acres, is 30 percent below last year.
In the Southeast States (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia), producers
battled extreme drought conditions during the early summer. By late June, planting was complete in the
region. Drought conditions continued to plague producers throughout the fall causing the crop to develop
ahead of normal in most areas. By the end of September, harvest was ahead of normal throughout the region
except in Georgia, where harvest lagged behind throughout the season. Harvest was complete in the region by
early December. Objective yield measurements in Georgia show boll counts to be the third largest in the last
5 years.
Upland growers in the Delta States (Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, and Tennessee) finished
planting in late May. The cotton crop in the Delta States matured rapidly during the late summer and early
fall due to the continual hot, dry weather. In September, harvest got underway but by the middle of the
month, Louisiana and Mississippi producers were hit with several weeks of rainy weather which delayed
harvest. In Missouri and Tennessee, favorable fall weather and an advanced crop allowed harvest to be
completed by the middle of November, well ahead of normal. The objective yield data show Louisiana and
Arkansas boll counts to be the highest on record. In Louisiana, producers expect a record yield, surpassing the
previous record set in 2003. In Mississippi, boll counts and boll weights are slightly lower than the 5-year
average.
Southwest (Kansas, New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas) producers battled wet, cool conditions which
delayed planting of upland cotton. The later planted crop and the abnormally wet, cool summer caused crop
development to lag behind normal. During the early fall months, hot weather and timely rains helped promote
crop development in the region. By mid-September, after a delay from the excessive rains during the summer,
harvest was finally in full swing in South Texas. In the High Plains of Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas, harvest
got underway in October where ideal weather allowed harvest to advance rapidly. Oklahoma producers
expect a record high yield, surpassing the record set in 2004. Data from the objective yield survey shows
Texas bolls per acre to be the largest on record and boll weights to be second heaviest on record. Texas
producers expect a record high yield, surpassing the record set in 2005.
California and Arizona upland producers completed planting by early June. Ideal weather throughout the
summer and fall months allowed the crop to develop ahead of normal. In Arizona, harvest got underway by
the first of the September, slightly ahead of normal. In the San Joaquin Valley, harvest was in full swing by
the middle of October. By the end of November, harvest was complete in California. Data from the objective
yield survey show California boll weights to be largest on record. California producers expect a record high
yield, surpassing the previous record set in 2004.
American-Pima producers planted 292,300 acres, down 10 percent from last year. Harvested area, at
288,200 acres, is down 1l percent from last year. Production is estimated at a record high 825,000 bales
(480-pound), up 8 percent from last year but down 1 percent from December. The U.S. yield is estimated at
1,374 pounds per acre, down 7 pounds from December but up 238 pounds from last year. California
producers are expecting a record high production of 760,000 bales with a yield of 1,419 pounds, the second
highest yield on record. The crop progressed normally throughout the summer and fall with excellent cotton
growing weather. Harvest was complete by the end of November.
All cotton ginnings totaled 15,715,650 running bales prior to January 1, compared with 19,211,850 running
bales prior to the same date last year and 20,107,550 running bales ginned prior to January 1, 2005.

Cottonseed: Production for 2007, based on a 3-year average lint-seed ratio, is expected to total 6.60 million
tons, down 10 percent from last year.
Tobacco: U.S. production in 2007 totaled 779 million pounds, up 10 percent from the October forecast and
7 percent above 2006. Growers harvested 356,000 acres in 2007, less than 1 percent above the previous
forecast and up 5 percent from last year. Yield per acre averaged 2,187 pounds, a 187 pound increase from
the October forecast and 41 pounds above 2006.
Flue-cured production is estimated at 503 million pounds, 10 percent above the October 1 forecast and
13 percent above last year. Harvested acres totaled 223,000, down 1 percent from the previous forecast but
5 percent above 2006. Flue-cured yields averaged 2,257 pounds, an increase of 233 pounds from the October
forecast and 159 pounds above a year ago. Despite drought like conditions in the south, flue-cured tobacco
faired better than growers originally expected. Yields increased from a year ago in all flue-cured States,
except Virginia.
Burley production totaled 207 million pounds in 2007, up 8 percent from the October 1 forecast but 5 percent
below a year ago. Growers harvested 106,300 acres in 2007, up 1 percent from the previous forecast and
3 percent above 2006. Yield per acre averaged 1,945 pounds, up 119 pounds from the October 1 forecast but
150 pounds below last year. Yields decreased from a year ago in all burley States except Ohio and
Pennsylvania. Hot, dry weather in the south limited tobacco growth and resulted in poor curing conditions.
However, many producers found they had a better crop than originally expected.
Sugarbeets: Production for 2007 is estimated 31.9 million tons, 6 percent below the 2006 estimate but
1 percent above the November forecast. Estimated yield, at 25.6 tons per acre, is 0.5 ton lower than last year’s
record high yield and 0.2 ton below November. Growers harvested 1.25 million acres, 4 percent below last
year. Area planted, at 1.27 million acres, is 7 percent below the 2006 estimate.
Growers in Colorado, Idaho, and Washington saw record high yields in 2007 with yields up from last year in
all States except Minnesota, Montana, and North Dakota. Production in all States except Washington
decreased from 2006. The lower production resulted from fewer acres being planted and harvested except in
Minnesota and North Dakota where lower yields caused the decline in production from last year.
Sugarbeet planting started out with delays, except in Idaho, where on April 15, producers were 21 points
ahead of the normal planting pace. As the season progressed, planting in North Dakota advanced rapidly and
was ahead of normal by the end of April. However, planting progress in Michigan and Minnesota continued
to lag behind the normal pace. Harvest was underway in all States by September 23, and was progressing
slightly ahead of the normal pace. By November 4, ninety-five percent of the acreage was harvested, 3 points
ahead of last year and slightly ahead of the normal pace.
Sugarcane: Production of sugarcane for sugar and seed in 2007 is forecast at 30.8 million tons, of which
29.1 million tons are expected to be for sugar and 1.73 million tons are for seed. Production of cane for sugar
and seed is up 1 percent from the December forecast and 4 percent above 2006 production. Sugarcane
growers intend to harvest 883,500 acres for sugar and seed during the 2007 crop year, 2 percent less than last
year. If realized, this will be the lowest area harvested for sugar and seed since 1990. Yield is forecast at
34.9 tons per acre, up 0.5 ton from December and up 2.0 tons from last year.
Expected harvested area is down from last year in Florida and Louisiana but up in Hawaii and Texas. Yields
are up from last year in all States except Texas. Florida weather has remained dry in the sandland sugarcane
growing area around Hendry County, allowing harvest of the sugarcane crop to progress normally. The
absence of major weather events in 2007 helped harvest run smoothly in Louisiana. Louisiana farmers are
expecting the second highest yield on record behind 1999 when the State set a record yield of 32.7 net tons
per acre. Texas sugarcane harvest began in early October after being delayed due to unseasonably wet
conditions during the summer.
Dry Beans: U.S. dry edible bean production is estimated at 25.4 million cwt for 2007, up less than 1 percent
from the December forecast and 5 percent above last year. Harvested area is estimated at 1.48 million acres,
virtually unchanged from the December forecast but 4 percent below the 2006 crop. The average U.S. yield is
estimated at 1,716 pounds per acre, an increase of 8 pounds from the last forecast and 139 pounds above a
year ago. Production increased from a year ago for large lima, baby lima, pinto, light red kidney, and black.
Production decreased from last year for navy, great northern, small white, dark red kidney, pink, small red,
cranberry, blackeye, and all chickpeas.

Production in Minnesota, at 2.61 million cwt of dry beans, is 17 percent more than last year. The average
yield, at 1,800 pounds per acre, is up 150 pounds from the previous year. Minnesota dry bean growers
experienced good growing conditions throughout the season. California growers produced 1.21 million cwt,
up less than 1 percent from last year. The average yield, at 2,090 pounds per acre, is up 230 pounds from
2006. Washington production is estimated at 1.02 million cwt, up 5 percent from 2006. The average yield, at
1,700 pounds per acre, is up 100 pounds from last year. Growers experienced good growing conditions
throughout the season.
In Michigan, production is estimated at 3.12 million cwt, 24 percent below last year. Harvested area, at
195,000 acres, is 9 percent below 2006, while yield of 1,600 pounds per acre is down 300 pounds from last
season. Dry conditions from mid-June to the beginning of August reduced yields. Nebraska growers
produced 2.42 million cwt of dry beans, 11 percent less than last year. Harvested acres decreased 14 percent
from 2006. The average yield, at 2,260 pounds per acre, is up 60 pounds from the previous year. Production
in Idaho is estimated at 1.60 million cwt, 16 percent below last year. The average yield, at 1,800 pounds per
acre, is down 50 pounds from last season. Dry conditions in northern Idaho reduced chickpea yields while
conditions in southern Idaho were similar to last year.
Lentils: Production is estimated at 3.41 million cwt for 2007, down 2 percent from the November 1 forecast
but 5 percent above 2006. Planted area, at 303,000 acres, remains unchanged from the previous forecast but is
29 percent below the previous season. Harvested area, at 295,000 acres, is down 1,000 acres from the
November 1 forecast and 28 percent below last year. Average yield per acre, at 1,155 pounds, is 24 pounds
below November’s forecast but 358 pounds above last year.
North Dakota’s production is estimated at 1.34 million cwt, up 10 percent from 2006. Soil moisture supplies
were rated adequate through June, then deteriorated to mostly short to adequate for the remainder of the
growing season. Above normal temperatures throughout the growing season promoted crop development.
Harvest of the crop started the third week of July and was complete by mid-September.
Montana’s production, at 842 thousand cwt, is up 5 percent from a year ago. Above normal temperatures and
heavy precipitation during most of April caused a short delay in planting. From the beginning of May until
mid-June, the State continued to receive above normal precipitation with average temperatures. During July
and August, the State had both above normal temperatures and limited precipitation.
In Washington, the State experienced normal growing temperatures with light precipitation in April. By early
May, conditions were dry and rain was badly needed. Early June brought rain showers to the lentil growing
areas. Harvest went well and ended in early September.
Production in Idaho, at 426,000 cwt, is down 9 percent from 2006 as harvested area declined 24 percent.
Despite a very hot summer with limited precipitation, yield increased 200 pounds per acre from a year ago.
Wrinkled Seed Peas: Production is estimated at 541,000 cwt in 2007, down 8 percent from 2006. Idaho
production, at 135,000 cwt, is up 69 percent from 2006. Production in Washington, at 406,000 cwt, decreased
20 percent from last year.
Dry Edible Peas: Production is estimated at 15.9 million cwt for 2007, up 2 percent from the November 1
forecast and 20 percent above the 2006 estimate. Area harvested, at 811,300 acres, is up slightly from the
previous forecast but 8 percent below last year. Average yield, at 1,960 pounds per acre, increased 29 pounds
from the November 1 forecast and is 467 pounds above 2006.
North Dakota’s dry edible pea production is estimated at 10.4 million cwt, up 12 percent from last season.
Harvested acres, at 500,000, decreased 15 percent but yields were up 500 pounds per acre from last season.
Planting started in mid-April and was complete by May 20, ahead of last year. Soil moisture supplies were
rated adequate through June, then deteriorated to mostly short to adequate the remainder of the growing
season. Above normal temperatures during the growing season promoted crop development. Crop condition
was rated mostly good throughout the season. Harvest started the third week of July and was complete by late
August.
Montana experienced above normal temperatures and heavy precipitation during most of April. Beginning in
May and continuing until mid-June, the State continued to receive above normal precipitation with average

temperatures. During July and August, both above normal temperatures and limited precipitation were
common.
Austrian Winter Peas: Production for the 2007 season is estimated at 127,000 cwt, down 15 percent from
the November 1 forecast and 51 percent below 2006. Area harvested, at 11,000 acres, is 21 percent below the
previous forecast and 51 percent below last season. Average yield, at 1,155 pounds per acre, increased
84 pounds from the November 1 forecast and is 4 pounds above 2006.
Idaho production, at 65,000 cwt, is down 38 percent from last year. A very hot summer with little moisture
had a negative impact on both yield and quality. Oregon’s acreage declined sharply due in part to high prices
for wheat and barley, which compete for acreage. Montana’s production, at 26,000 cwt, is down 76 percent
from last year. Harvested area is down 67 percent, largely due to growers shifting more acreage to dry edible
peas. Yields were reduced by above normal temperatures and limited precipitation during July and August.
Winter Potatoes: The final 2007 winter potato production is estimated at 2.47 million cwt, unchanged from
the April estimate but 45 percent below 2006. Florida winter potatoes were combined with their spring
potatoes for the 2007 crop. The California production is 21 percent below 2006. Area for harvest in
California, at 11,500 acres, is unchanged from April but down 4 percent from a year ago. The average yield
of 215 cwt per acre is unchanged from April but 45 cwt below a year ago.
Spring Potatoes: Production for 2007 is estimated at 20.7 million cwt, virtually unchanged from the May
forecast but 5 percent above 2006. Harvested area totaled 70,400 acres, unchanged from the previous forecast
but up 4 percent from a year ago. The average yield of 294 cwt per acre is the same as the May forecast but
1 cwt above 2006.
Florida production is estimated at 7.81 million cwt, up 1 percent from the May 1 forecast and 21 percent
above the 2006 production. Florida’s winter potatoes were combined with spring potatoes in 2007. In
California, production increased 1 percent from last year due to a 1 percent increase in harvested acres. Cold
weather early in the season delayed the crop and some growers did not begin to harvest until June. Production
in Texas increased 3 percent from 2006 with a record high yield of 320 cwt per acre. The crop benefitted
from good growing conditions and high levels of moisture. Growers in North Carolina produced 17 percent
fewer spring potatoes than in the previous year. Dry conditions reduced yield 24 cwt per acre from 2006.
Production in Arizona declined 4 percent from last year due to a 20 cwt per acre drop in average yield.
Summer Potatoes: Growers produced 16.9 million cwt of summer potatoes in 2007, up 2 percent from the
September forecast but down 7 percent from a year ago. Harvested area, at 50,400 acres, is down 6 percent
from last year. The average yield of 335 cwt per acre is 2 cwt below 2006. Production declined from the
previous year in 7 of the 11 producing States.
In Texas, record high rainfall led to increased abandonment and lower yields from last year. In Virginia, hot
and dry weather reduced yields from 2006. Colorado growers started harvest later than usual due to delays in
planting. Hail and hot temperatures helped to keep yields at the same level as the previous year. In Alabama,
dry conditions adversely affected the quality of the crop. Harvest began on time in California with growers
reporting an increase in yields from 2006. In New Jersey, growing conditions improved after a dry summer
and sufficient moisture late in the season helped tubers to size.
Fall Potatoes: Production of fall potatoes for 2007 is estimated at 409 million cwt, virtually unchanged from
the December forecast but up 3 percent from last year. Area harvested, at 996,700 acres, is virtually
unchanged from December but 1 percent above last year. The average yield is estimated at 410 cwt per acre,
unchanged from December but 4 cwt above last year’s record high.
Western States production is estimated at 288 million cwt, virtually unchanged from the December forecast
but up 6 percent from last year. Area harvested, at 641,700 acres, increased 4 percent from last year, and the
average yield of 449 cwt per acre is up 6 cwt from 2006. Idaho’s yield is estimated at 377 cwt per acre, the
second highest yield on record, 9 cwt below the record yield set in 2006. Hot weather during the summer
reduced the quality of the crop. Incidences of the Potato Virus Y were more frequent than normal which
adversely affected yields. In Washington, harvest progressed normally this year. The quality of the crop was
acceptable but not as good as in previous years. In Colorado, a severe wind storm followed by a late freeze in
mid-June damaged plants. The earlier planted crop was slow to recover from the damage, leading to increased
yield variability. Oregon’s crop progressed at a normal pace with no major problems reported. In California,
favorable weather conditions resulted in excellent crop quality and yields.

Central States production is estimated at 96.2 million cwt, virtually unchanged from the December forecast
but 3 percent below last year. Harvested area, estimated at 266,400 acres, is 4 percent below a year ago, but
the average yield of 361 cwt per acre is up 4 cwt from a year ago. Overall, the Wisconsin crop progressed
ahead of normal. Growers reported a good quality crop with harvest completed on time or early. In North
Dakota, crop condition was rated fair to good throughout the growing season. Growers in both Michigan and
Minnesota reported record high average yields of 350 and 440 cwt per acre, respectively.
Eastern States production is estimated at 24.9 million cwt, unchanged from the December forecast but
9 percent below last year. Area for harvest totaled 88,600 acres, 3 percent below last year. Average yield, at
281 cwt per acre, is down 18 cwt from last season. In Maine, excellent growing and harvesting conditions
resulted in a high yielding, high quality crop. In Massachusetts and Rhode Island, above average temperatures
and below average precipitation forced growers in many locations to irrigate. New York planted acreage is at
the lowest level since estimates began in 1929.
All Potatoes: Total 2007 U.S. potato production from all four seasons is estimated at 449 million cwt,
2 percent above the 2006 crop and up 6 percent from 2005. Harvested area, at 1.13 million acres, is up
1 percent from last year and 4 percent more than two years ago. The average yield, at 398 cwt per acre, is up
5 cwt from last year and 8 cwt above 2005. By season, fall production is 3 percent above the previous year,
summer is down 7 percent, spring increased 5 percent, and winter decreased 45 percent from 2006.
Sweet Potatoes: Production of sweet potatoes in 2007 is estimated at 18.5 million cwt, up 14 percent from
last season and 17 percent above 2005. Growers harvested 97,500 acres, up 12 percent from last year. Yield
per acre, at 189 cwt, is up 2 cwt from last year’s record high yield. Production increased in 5 of the
9 producing States.
Drought conditions reduced sweet potato yields on the east coast. In North Carolina the average yield, at
165 cwt per acre, was 15 cwt below 2006. The average yield in New Jersey was 35 cwt per acre below the
previous year. The Gulf Coast States also experienced dry conditions. In Alabama, yields were lower than
last year due to the lack of rain. Despite the dry conditions in Louisiana and Mississippi, timely rainfall
resulted in above average yields. Louisiana growers realized a record high average yield of 195 cwt per acre,
30 cwt above last season and 20 cwt above the previous record high set in 2003. In Mississippi, Hurricane
Humberto brought 3 inches of rain in mid-September that helped the sweet potatoes increase in size. Good
growing conditions in California resulted in a record high yield of 320 cwt per acre, 15 cwt above the previous
record set in 2006.
Peppermint Oil: Production in 2007 is estimated at 6.79 million pounds, down 6 percent from last year.
Harvested area is estimated at 73,300 acres, down 7 percent from 2006. Washington’s harvested acreage, at
23,000 acres, is down 1,000 acres from a year ago. Acreage in Indiana and Wisconsin dropped from 2006,
while Idaho, Michigan, and Oregon showed no change from a year ago. Production in Idaho and Washington
remained at last year’s level, while Indiana, Michigan, Oregon, and Wisconsin reported lower production
from 2006.
Spearmint Oil: Production is estimated at 2.38 million pounds for 2007, up 17 percent from last year and
32 percent above 2005. Harvested area is estimated at 19,600 acres, up 6 percent from 2006 and 17 percent
above 2005. Average yield is estimated at 121 pounds of oil per acre, up 11 pounds from last year and
13 pounds above 2005. Yields increased in Idaho, Indiana, Oregon, and Washington from a year ago, while
Michigan remained unchanged, and Wisconsin yield decreased. Growers in Idaho, Oregon, and Washington
showed increases in harvested acreage from a year ago. Indiana, Michigan, and Wisconsin showed decreases
in both acreage and production from 2006. Production increases were realized in Idaho, Oregon, and
Washington.
Hops: Production in 2007 totaled 60.3 million pounds, up 4 percent from the 2006 crop of 57.7 million
pounds and 14 percent above the 2005 production of 52.9 million pounds. Idaho's production decreased
9 percent in 2007. Production in Washington and Oregon increased 5 percent and 8 percent, respectively.
Acreage in 2007 was up in all three States with a 5 percent increase overall. Yields decreased slightly in
Washington to 2,049 pounds per acre, and increased in Oregon to 1,811 pounds per acre. Due to an increase
in the presence of "babies", Idaho yields dropped to 1,417 pounds per acre, 196 pounds less than a year ago.
Washington growers produced 77 percent of the U.S. hop crop for 2007. Zeus, Columbus/Tomahawk,
Willamette, and Galena were the leading varieties in Washington, accounting for 71 percent of the State's hop
crop. In Oregon, Willamette and Nugget were the major varieties, accounting for 79 percent of the State's hop
production.

Maple Syrup: The 2007 U.S. maple syrup production totaled 1.26 million gallons, down 13 percent from
2006 but 1 percent above 2005. Maple syrup production decreased in all States. Decreased yields were the
largest contributing factor to the decrease in production.
Vermont led all States in production with 450,000 gallons, a decrease of 2 percent from 2006. Production in
Maine, at 225,000 gallons, decreased 25 percent from last season. Production in New York, at
224,000 gallons, is 11 percent below 2006. Production was down 25 percent in Massachusetts and Wisconsin,
23 percent in Michigan and Pennsylvania, 20 percent in Connecticut, 6 percent in New Hampshire, and
4 percent in Ohio.
Temperatures were not favorable for sap flow in 2007 except in Ohio where the majority of producers
reported favorable weather. Producers in New England experienced conditions that were mostly too cold for
sap flow. The remaining States (Michigan, Ohio, New York, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin) experienced
weather that was mostly too warm for sap flow. However, there were some extremely cold spells in many of
these States that also hindered sap flow.
Coffee: Hawaii production is estimated at 7.50 million pounds (parchment basis) for the 2007-08 season, up
1 percent from the previous season. Harvested area is estimated at 6,400 acres, up 2 percent from the 2006-07
season. Coffee production from Maui, Honolulu, and Kauai Counties is up from the previous season, which
accounts for the overall increase in production for Hawaii. In Kona, the primary growing area on the island of
Hawaii, coffee harvest for the 2007-08 season is down. Although bean quality was reported as good, erratic
weather conditions, heavy pruning, insect infestation, and labor problems led to the smaller crop.
Puerto Rico coffee production for the 2007-08 season is estimated at 18.0 million pounds (parchment basis),
unchanged from the previous season. Overall growing conditions for the 2007-08 coffee crop were reported
as favorable. Heavy rains in October combined with high winds delayed harvest.
Taro: Hawaii production is estimated at 4.00 million pounds for 2007, down 11 percent from 2006 and a new
record low. Area in crop, at 370 acres, is down 10 acres from 2006. Heavy rains between February and April
had an adverse effect on several taro patches, while other growing areas had dry weather conditions. The
combination of less than favorable weather conditions, pests, and disease hampered taro production in 2007.
Ginger Root: Hawaii production for the 2006-07 season is estimated at 2.80 million pounds, down
35 percent from the previous season. Harvested area, at 80 acres, is down 20 percent from the 2005-06
season. Average yield is 35,000 pounds per harvested acre, down 8,000 pounds from the previous season.
The amount of rainfall for the year was less than ideal for ginger root production. The number of ginger root
growers continues to decline due to the increase in imports of lower priced ginger root from China.
