of Agriculture (USDA).

Corn Production Down 1 Percent from October Forecast Soybean Production Down Slightly Cotton Production Down 4 Percent

Corn production for grain is forecast at 13.7 billion bushels, down 1 percent from the previous forecast and down

5 percent from last year. Based on conditions as of November 1, yields are expected to average 167.0 bushels per

harvested acre, down 1.4 bushels from the previous forecast and down 9.4 bushels from 2018. Area harvested for grain is

forecast at 81.8 million acres, unchanged from the previous forecast but up slightly from 2018.

Special Note

Survey respondents who reported barley, oats, Durum wheat, and other spring wheat acreage as not yet

harvested during the surveys conducted in preparation for the Small Grains 2019 Summary, released

September 30, 2019, were re-contacted in late October to determine how many of those acres were actually

harvested and record the actual production from those acres. When the small grains producers were surveyed in

September there were a significant number of unharvested acres of:

Barley in Idaho, Maine, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, and Washington

Oats in Idaho, Maine, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, and South Dakota

Durum wheat in Idaho, Montana, and North Dakota

Other spring wheat in Idaho, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Washington

Based on this updated information, several changes were made to the estimates previously published in the

Small Grains 2019 Summary. Unharvested production is a component of on-farm stocks, therefore, changes

were made to the September 1 on-farm stocks levels comparable with the production adjustments. Detailed

estimates by State can be found on pages 14 through 24.

As a result of snowfall during the first part of October, NASS collected harvested acreage information for corn

and soybeans in Minnesota and North Dakota to assess the full impact on harvested acreage for this report.

Based on the reported data, no changes to harvested acreage for corn or soybeans were made this month in

Minnesota or North Dakota.

Harvested acreage for sugarbeets were also reviewed for this report. Substantial changes were made to

Minnesota and North Dakota harvested acres. Detailed estimates for all States can be found on page 11.

As is done every year in November, planted and harvested acreage estimates were reviewed for potatoes and

updated as needed based on all available data, including the latest certified acreage data from the Farm Service

Agency (FSA). All States in the estimating program for potatoes were subject to review and updating. Detailed

estimates can be found on page 12.

2 Crop Production (November 2019) USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

Soybean production for beans is forecast at 3.55 billion bushels, down slightly from the previous forecast and down

20 percent from last year. Based on conditions as of November 1, yields are expected to average 46.9 bushels per acre,

unchanged from the previous forecast but down 3.7 bushels from 2018. Area harvested for beans in the United States is

forecast at 75.6 million acres, unchanged from the previous forecast but down 14 percent from 2018.

All cotton production is forecast at 20.8 million 480-pound bales, down 4 percent from the previous forecast but up

13 percent from 2018. Based on conditions as of November 1, yields are expected to average 799 pounds per harvested

acre, down 34 pounds from the previous forecast and down 65 pounds from 2018. Upland cotton production is forecast at

20.1 million 480-pound bales, down 4 percent from the previous forecast but up 14 percent from 2018. Pima cotton

production is forecast at 747,000 bales, up 3 percent from the previous forecast but down 7 percent from 2018. All cotton

area harvested is forecast at 12.5 million acres, unchanged from the previous forecast, but up 23 percent from 2018.

Cold, stormy weather across the northern Plains and upper Midwest slowed early-season harvest efforts and added another

layer of complexity to a growing season that featured very late planting and delayed crop development. When the season’s

first widespread freeze affected much of the Plains and the western half of the Corn Belt in mid-October, only 73 percent

of the Nation’s corn was fully mature (on October 13) and 85 percent of the soybeans were dropping leaves.

Stormy weather across the north-central United States also delayed harvesting of commodities such as sugarbeets,

sunflowers, and spring wheat, potentially threatening crop quality. The spring wheat harvest was 90 percent complete on

September 29, with progress inching toward completion (96 percent) by October 20. The cold, wet weather also slowed

winter wheat planting and emergence in some northern production areas, especially Montana.

Meanwhile, multiple mid- to late-month precipitation events across the South and East—including the remnants of

Tropical Storms Nestor and Olga—eased or eradicated short-term drought and provided much-needed moisture for

pastures and fall-sown crops. The rain followed an early-October spell of record-setting heat that helped to locally boost

Southeastern monthly temperatures more than 5°F above normal.

Elsewhere, cool weather dominated the western and central United States, while dry conditions covered California, the

Great Basin, and the Desert Southwest. Some of the dryness extended eastward across portions of the central and

southern High Plains. Monthly temperatures broadly averaged at least 5°F below normal across the northern and

central Plains, as well as the northern Rockies and the Northwest. In California, high winds, low humidity levels, and

seasonally cured vegetation fueled late-month wildfires, including the 78,000-acre Kincade Fire in Sonoma County.

October Agricultural Summary

October was cooler than average for parts of the Great Plains, Nevada, Oregon, and the Rocky Mountains with

temperatures averaging 6°F or more below normal. However, temperatures were 6°F or more, warmer than normal along

the Indiana and Ohio border and in parts of the Southeast. During the month of October, the western half of the

United States remained extremely dry. In contrast, areas in the Mississippi Valley, Oklahoma, and Washington received

10 inches of rain or more.

Idaho’s harvest progress was 88 percent complete as of the week ending November 3, ahead of the 5-year average pace of

83 percent. Growers were waiting for warmer temperatures before continuing to harvest. Michigan’s harvest progress was

slowed by rainfall and excessive moisture in the fields. Harvest progress in Minnesota and North Dakota was delayed by

excessive rainfall. This combined with freezing temperatures has resulted in some fields being abandoned. Several

hundred acres remain to be harvested in Wyoming.

Sugarcane: Production of sugarcane for sugar and seed in 2019 is forecast at 34.0 million tons, down 2 percent from last

month and 1 percent below last year. Producers intend to harvest 917,300 acres for sugar and seed during the 2019 crop

year, down 1 percent from last month but up 2 percent from last year. Yields for sugar and seed are expected to average

37.1 tons per acre, down 0.5 ton from last month and down 1.3 tons from 2018.

In Louisiana, harvest was 38 percent complete as of the week ending November 3. Sugar yields were lower than originally

expected.

Potatoes: Production of potatoes for the 2019 crop year is forecast at 422 million cwt, down 6 percent from last year.

Planted acreage, at 961,800 acres, is down 1 percent from the June estimate. Area harvested, at 938,900 acres, is down

7 percent from the previous year. The yield forecast, at 450 cwt per acre, is up 7 cwt from last year’s yield.

In Idaho, growers reported losses due to freezing temperatures in late September and early October. Several farmers left

potatoes in the ground to avoid the cost of digging them up. Washington producers reported some quality concerns due to

soil borne issues and freeze damage at the end of the harvest season. Prolonged wet conditions during late September and

early October hampered harvest progress in the Red River Valley of North Dakota. As of the week ending November 3,

harvest was at 73 percent well behind normal.

Small grains: Survey respondents who reported barley, oats, Durum wheat, and other spring wheat acreage as not yet

harvested during the surveys conducted in preparation for the Small Grains 2019 Summary, released September 30, 2019,

were re-contacted in late October to determine how many of those acres were actually harvested and record the actual

production from those acres. When the small grains producers were surveyed in September there were a significant

number of unharvested acres of barley in Idaho, Maine, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, South Dakota, and

Washington; significant unharvested acreage of oats in Idaho, Maine, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, and

South Dakota; significant unharvested acreage of Durum wheat in Idaho, Montana, and North Dakota; and a large

proportion of other spring wheat acreage not yet harvested in Idaho, Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota,

and Washington. Based on this updated information, several changes were made to the estimates previously published in

the Small Grains 2019 Summary. Unharvested production is a component of on-farm stocks, therefore, changes were

made to the September 1 on-farm stocks levels comparable with the production adjustments.

Oat harvested area was reduced from the Small Grains 2019 Summary in Montana and North Dakota. As a result of this

change and yield changes in Idaho, Maine, Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, and South Dakota, oat production in the

United States is estimated at 53.1 million bushels, down 2 percent from the Small Grains 2019 Summary.

Barley harvested area was reduced from the Small Grains 2019 Summary in Montana, North Dakota, Oregon, and

Washington. As a result of these changes and yield changes Idaho, Maine, Montana, and South Dakota, barley production

in the United States is estimated at 170 million bushels, down 1 percent from the Small Grains 2019 Summary.

Other spring wheat harvested area was reduced from the Small Grains 2019 Summary in all estimating States, except

Washington. As a result of these changes and a yield change in South Dakota, other spring wheat production in the

United States is estimated at 562 million bushels, down 6 percent from the Small Grains 2019 Summary. Due to late

season precipitation and a mid-October snow, producers in Montana and North Dakota reported difficulties completing

harvest activities and noted quality concerns.

Durum wheat harvested area was reduced from the Small Grains 2019 Summary in Montana and North Dakota. As a

result of this change and yield changes in Idaho, Montana, and North Dakota, Durum wheat production in the

United States is estimated at 53.8 million bushels, down 7 percent from the Small Grains 2019 Summary. Due to late

season precipitation and a mid-October snow, producers in Montana and North Dakota reported difficulties completing

harvest activities and noted quality concerns.

All wheat production in the United States is estimated at 1.92 billion bushels, down 2 percent from the

Small Grains 2019 Summary.

Statistical Methodology Field crop survey procedures: Objective yield and farm operator surveys were conducted between October 25 and

November 5 to gather information on expected yield as of November 1. The objective yield surveys for corn, cotton, and

soybeans were conducted in the major producing States that usually account for about 75 percent of the United States

production. Randomly selected plots were revisited to make current counts. The counts made within each sample plot

depend on the crop and the maturity of that crop. In all cases, plant counts are recorded along with other measurements

that provide information to forecast the number of ears, bolls, or pods and their weight. The counts are used with similar

data from previous years to develop a projected biological yield. The average harvesting loss is subtracted to obtain a net

yield. The plots are revisited each month until crop maturity when the fruit is harvested and weighed. After the farm

operator has harvested the sample field, another plot is sampled to obtain current year harvesting loss. Starting in 2019,

NASS eliminated the August objective yield survey for cotton (except Texas), corn, and soybeans.

The farm operator survey was conducted primarily by telephone with some use of mail, internet, and personal

interviewers. Approximately 8,300 producers were interviewed during the survey period and asked questions about

probable yield.

Field crop estimating procedures: National and State level objective yield and grower reported data were reviewed for

reasonableness and consistency with historical estimates. The survey data were also reviewed considering weather

patterns and crop progress compared to previous months and previous years. Each Regional Field Office submits their

analysis of the current situation to the Agricultural Statistics Board (ASB). The ASB uses the survey data and the State

analyses to prepare the published November 1 forecasts.

Revision policy: The November 1 production forecast will not be revised; instead, a new forecast will be made each

month throughout the growing season. End-of-season estimates are made after harvest. At the end of the marketing

season, a balance sheet is calculated using carryover stocks, production, exports, millings, feeding, and ending stocks.

Revisions are then made if the balance sheet relationships or other administrative data warrant changes. Estimates of

planted acres for spring planted crops are subject to revision in the August Crop Production report if conditions altered

the planting intentions since the mid-year survey. Current year, planted acres may also be revised for cotton, peanuts, and

rice in the September Crop Production report each year; spring wheat, Durum wheat, barley, and oats only in the

Small Grains Summary report at the end of September; and all other spring planted crops in the October Crop Production

report. Revisions to planted acres will only be made when either special survey data, administrative data, such as Farm

Service Agency program “sign up” data, or remote sensing data are available. Harvested acres may be revised any time a

production forecast is made if there is strong evidence that the intended harvested area has changed since the last forecast.

Reliability: To assist users in evaluating the reliability of the November 1 production forecast, the “Root Mean Square

Error,” a statistical measure based on past performance, is computed. The deviation between the November 1 production

forecast and the final estimate is expressed as a percentage of the final estimate. The average of the squared percentage

deviations for the latest 20-year period is computed. The square root of the average becomes statistically the “Root Mean

Square Error.” Probability statements can be made concerning expected differences in the current forecast relative to the

final end-of-season estimate, assuming that factors affecting this year's forecast are not different from those influencing

recent years. For example, the “Root Mean Square Error” for the November 1 corn for grain production forecast is

1.0 percent. This means that chances are 2 out of 3 that the current production forecast will not be above or below the final

estimate by more than 1.0 percent. Chances are 9 out of 10 (90 percent confidence level) that the difference will not

exceed 1.8 percent.

Also, shown in the following table is a 20-year record for selected crops of the differences between the November 1

forecast and the final estimate. Using corn again as an example, changes between the November 1 forecast and the final

estimate during the last 20 years have averaged 102 million bushels, ranging from 4 million bushels to 214 million

bushels. The November 1 forecast has been below the final estimate 7 times and above 13 times. This does not imply that

the November 1 corn forecast this year is likely to understate or overstate final production.
