34 Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
Forage Production
Forage production is the sum of all dry hay production and haylage/greenchop production after converting the
haylage/greenchop production to a dry equivalent basis (13 percent moisture) by multiplying the green weight (weight at
harvest) by 0.4943. The conversion factor (0.4943) is based on the assumption that one ton of dry hay is 0.87 ton of dry
matter, one ton of haylage is 0.45 ton dry matter and one ton of greenchop is 0.25 ton dry matter. The total
haylage/greenchop production is assumed to be comprised of 90 percent haylage and 10 percent greenchop. Therefore, the
conversion factor used to adjust haylage/greenchop production to a dry equivalent basis = ((0.45*0.9)+(0.25*0.1))/0.87 =
0.4943. The factors assumed here may vary by State and can be adjusted. Adjustments would result in a slightly different
conversion factor.
All Forage Area Harvested, Yield, and Production – States and 18 State Total: 2008-2010 [All forage production is the sum of the following dry equivalents: alfalfa hay harvested as dry hay, all other hay harvested as dry hay, alfalfa haylage and greenchop, all other haylage and greenchop; after converting alfalfa and all other haylage and greenchop to a dry equivalent basis]

80 Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
2010 Annual Weather Summary Highlights: A rapid transition from El Niño to La Niña and a persistent blocking high-pressure system over the northern
Atlantic Ocean were the driving forces behind a number of extreme weather and climate events in 2010. In particular, the
North Atlantic block was largely responsible for sustained cold outbreaks in Florida in both January and December 2010.
Meanwhile, El Niño played a role in a stormy winter and spring in various parts of the country. Nevertheless, fields dried
quickly enough in the Midwest to promote a rapid spring planting pace.
During the spring and summer growing seasons, above-normal temperatures dominated the Nation’s major crop
production areas, including the central and southern Plains and the Midwest. As a result, most crops developed and
matured rapidly, although heat and expanding drought in the eastern Corn Belt and parts of the South reduced yield
prospects. In contrast, unfavorably wet weather conditions affected parts of the western Corn Belt, where June flooding
washed out some low-lying fields.
Following a warm growing season, Midwestern harvest activities proceeded at a rapid pace. Farther north and west,
however, persistently cool, damp weather led to delayed small grain development and harvesting across the northern High
Plains and the Northwest. California also experienced developmental and harvest delays for crops such as rice and cotton.
During autumn, signs of a developing La Niña included drought development across the Deep South and drought relief in
the eastern Corn Belt. In addition, unfavorable dryness on the central and southern Plains led to a poorly established hard
red winter wheat crop. Another late-year sign of La Niña’s emerging presence was cold, stormy conditions from the
Pacific Northwest to the upper Midwest.
Winter 2009-2010: With weather patterns governed by El Niño and a persistent high-pressure system over eastern
Canada and the northern Atlantic Ocean, cold, stormy conditions dominated the United States. El Niño supplied the
energy for an active storm track across the central and southern United States, while the high-pressure system acted as an
atmospheric block that repeatedly forced cold air southeastward across the Plains, Midwest, and Southeast.
According to the National Climatic Data Center (NCDC), the Nation experienced its seventeenth coldest, fifteenth wettest
winter on record. The United States winter average temperature of 31.1 degrees Fahrenheit was 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit
below the 1901-2000 mean, resulting in the coldest December-February period since 1984-85. It was among the ten
coldest winters in nine Southern States from Oklahoma and Texas eastward to South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida.
Meanwhile, Maine posted its third-warmest winter since 1895-96. Winter precipitation averaged 7.35 inches (114 percent
of the long-term mean) across the contiguous United States. It was among the ten driest winters on record in Wyoming
and Idaho, while top-ten wetness affected South Dakota, Alabama, and seven Atlantic Coast States from Florida to New
Jersey. Individual monthly highlights included a pair of December blizzards across parts of the Plains and upper Midwest,
a severe, early-January freeze in Florida, and record-setting February snowfall in the Mid-Atlantic States and adjoining
areas. The winter of 2009-10 will also be remembered for snow accumulations across the Deep South. In California, key
watershed areas received near-normal winter snowfall, following a 3-year drought.
Spring: Cool weather in the West and record-setting warmth from Michigan to Maine highlighted the spring season. A
wet spring eased the effects of a dry winter in the Northwest, while a gradual drying trend affected much of the Nation’s
southern tier. Drought persisted through the end of May in parts of the Great Lakes region and developed in parts of the
Gulf Coast States.
According to NCDC, the Nation experienced its twentieth warmest, sixtieth driest spring on record. The United States
spring average temperature of 53.2 degrees Fahrenheit was 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit above the 1901-2000 mean. It was the
warmest spring on record in Michigan, New Jersey, New York and all six New England States, and among the ten
warmest in ten other Midwestern and Northeastern States. In contrast, California experienced its fourteenth coolest spring.
Spring precipitation averaged 7.58 inches (98 percent of the long-term mean) across the contiguous United States. State
rankings ranged from the fifth driest spring in Louisiana to the second wettest spring in Rhode Island. Individual monthly
highlights included March flooding in the Northeast, rapid Midwestern planting progress in April, and Southern rainfall
extremes during May. For the latter highlight, May opened with historic rains in parts of Kentucky and Tennessee, while
drought developed and expanded during the month from eastern Texas into the lower Mississippi Valley.
Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) 81 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
Summer: Consistent warmth across the majority of the Nation fueled rapid crop development. In fact, record-setting
summer warmth affected numerous locations from the Southeast into New England. A major exception to the warm
pattern was the Northwest (as far east as Montana), where persistently cool conditions delayed both winter and spring
wheat maturation and harvesting. Meanwhile, pockets of drought developed or expanded during the summer months from
the Mid-South into the East. Drought development was also noted in the lower Midwest as far north as the Ohio Valley. In
contrast, wet conditions plagued portions of the western Corn Belt.
According to NCDC, the Nation experienced its fifth hottest, ninth wettest summer on record. The United States summer
average temperature of 74.0 degrees Fahrenheit was 1.9 degrees Fahrenheit above the 1901-2000 mean. Only the
summers of 1934, 1936, 2002, and 2006 were hotter. It was the hottest summer on record in ten Eastern States from
Alabama to Rhode Island. In contrast, it was the twentieth coolest summer in Oregon. Meanwhile, June-August
precipitation averaged 9.34 inches, 113 percent of the mean. It was the Nation’s wettest summer since 2004. State
rankings ranged from the twelfth driest June-August period in New Jersey to the wettest summer on record in Wisconsin.
Individual monthly highlights included June flooding in parts of the Midwest, along with early-summer heat and dryness
from the Delta into the Mid-Atlantic States. Hurricane Alex, which made landfall in northeastern Mexico, contributed to
late-June and early-July downpours and flooding in southern Texas. During July, widespread rain maintained generally
favorable conditions for Midwestern summer crops, except in areas of excessive wetness. By the end of July, heat began
to creep northward into the southern Corn Belt. During August, a broad area of unfavorable dryness stretched from the
south-central United States into the Ohio Valley and the lower Great Lakes region. The late-summer dryness, along with a
continuation of hot weather, trimmed yield prospects for some rain-fed summer crops.
Autumn: The United States escaped a busy Atlantic tropical season with no hurricane landfalls and minimal overall
impacts. Midwestern harvest activities proceeded at a near-record to record-setting pace, with corn and soybean fieldwork
nearly complete by the end of October. Meanwhile, portions of the central and southern Plains did not receive enough
moisture to allow for proper establishment of winter wheat. Dry conditions also plagued parts of the eastern Corn Belt,
although November precipitation provided drought relief. By the end of autumn, signs of the evolving La Niña included
Northwestern wetness and dry conditions in the southern Atlantic region and much of the south-central and southwestern
United States.
According to NCDC, the Nation experienced its fourteenth warmest, fifty-third driest autumn on record. The United
States autumn average temperature of 55.7 degrees Fahrenheit was 1.5 degrees Fahrenheit above the 1901-2000 mean.
State rankings ranged from the fifty-third coolest autumn in Washington to the fifth-warmest autumn in Rhode Island.
Meanwhile, autumn precipitation averaged 6.70 inches (virtually equal to the long-term mean) across the contiguous
United States. It was the second driest September-November period in Florida, but among the ten wettest autumns on
record in Maine, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Nevada.
2010 Annual Crop Summary
April: Unseasonably warm temperatures blanketed much of the country east of the Rocky Mountains during the month,
allowing spring fieldwork in numerous States to advance at a pace well ahead of normal. Rainfall was plentiful in the
western half of the United States, helping to alleviate prolonged drought conditions in areas and boosting small grain
growth. In Texas, wet fields and cool temperatures delayed the start of sorghum planting to one week behind normal,
while sunny skies allowed for rapid mid-month planting in the Delta. Elsewhere, with warm, mostly dry weather
conditions prevailing throughout much of the major corn-producing regions, planting progress exploded during the latter
half of April as producers rushed to get as much seed in the ground as possible ahead of approaching late-month
thunderstorms. By April 25, half of the 2010 corn crop had been planted, the earliest date on record that progress had
reached the midpoint.
May: While cooler than normal temperatures dominated much of the western United States, slowing the emergence of
recently planted row crops and hindering head development in small grains, above average temperatures afforded
producers throughout the eastern half of the country ample time for completing fieldwork. Early-May thunderstorms
delivered a deluge of rainfall to portions of Kentucky and Tennessee causing severe flooding, limiting fieldwork, and
damaging some crops in low-lying areas near creeks and rivers. Similarly, spring storm systems inundated California’s
82 Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
rice-producing region with above average rainfall, leaving producers seeding fields as conditions allowed. By May 2,
ninety-six percent of the Nation’s sugarbeet crop was planted, well ahead of both last year and the 5-year average, with
producers in Idaho replanting some fields due to poor emergence, frost damage, and seedling disease. Mid-month cold
spells damaged some soybean fields in the northernmost areas of Indiana, causing producers to replant a portion of the
crop. Barley seeding remained active throughout the month despite fluctuating weather conditions; however, unusually
cool late-month temperatures in Idaho and Montana slowed crop emergence.
June: Warmer than normal temperatures prevailed across much of the country during the month, promoting rapid summer
crop development in some areas, while negatively impacting crop conditions in others. Conversely, cool temperatures in
the Pacific Northwest, northern Rocky Mountains, and portions of the northern Great Plains hampered small grain
maturation. As the month began, cotton producers across the country had planted 91 percent of their intended acreage,
with planting complete in Arizona, Arkansas, California, Louisiana, and Missouri. Corn condition ratings declined during
June, as mid-month storms delivered above average rainfall and hail that caused flooding and damaged corn plants in
some fields in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota, and Nebraska, the five largest corn-producing States. Warm, mostly dry
weather was the norm for much of the major winter wheat-producing regions during mid-June, boosting heading progress
and providing ideal harvest conditions. Peanut producers had planted 96 percent of the 2010 crop by June 13, ahead of
both last year and the average pace. Hot late-month temperatures in the Delta caused a decline in rice condition ratings,
but promoted rapid phenological development.
July: Above average precipitation fell on much of the Great Plains and Midwest during the month, helping to improve dry
soil moisture conditions in some areas while adding to already soggy fields in others. Conversely, many areas east of the
Mississippi River and west of the Rocky Mountains were abnormally dry. Hot temperatures lingered month-long east of
the Mississippi River, hampering the phenological development of summer row crops in some Southeastern States. Warm
temperatures on the Plains as the month began helped to jumpstart the heading of Kansas’ sorghum crop, the earliest start
of heading since 2006. Following a rapid planting pace during the spring and nearly ideal growing conditions throughout
much of the major corn-producing areas in May and June, the Nation’s crop continued to develop at a faster than normal
pace during July. Oat harvest was underway in some States by July 11 and neared the halfway point toward month’s end.
Head development of the Nation’s rice crop gained momentum as the month progressed, with heading in Arkansas, the
largest rice-producing State, over three weeks ahead of normal by month’s end. Warm temperatures coupled with
adequate soil moisture levels across the major soybean-producing regions provided ideal growing conditions and
promoted rapid crop development throughout July.
August: While near-normal temperatures prevailed from the Rocky Mountains westward, unseasonably warm
temperatures reigned from the Great Plains to the Atlantic Coast during August, promoting the rapid phenological
development of many row crops as well as small grain harvest. Rainfall in excess of 12 inches left many low-lying corn
fields in Iowa, the largest corn-producing State, completely saturated, stunting growth and yellowing portions of the crop.
Despite mostly ideal weather that provided ample time for fieldwork during the first half of the month, barley harvest
remained behind normal in Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, and Washington, four of the six largest producing States, due
to early-season developmental delays. In Kansas, triple-digit temperatures combined with persistently dry weather
mid-month depleted soil moisture levels and stressed portions of the sorghum crop. Similarly, above average temperatures
and a lack of available soil moisture stressed cotton fields in areas of Texas, leading to a decline in crop condition ratings.
Hot, humid conditions blanketed much of the major soybean-producing regions during mid-August, maintaining a rapid
pod setting pace, while timely late-month rainfall aided pod filling in portions of the Corn Belt. By August 29, sorghum
harvest was underway and well ahead of normal in the Delta but 19 percentage points behind last year in Texas.
September: Tropical Storms Hermine and Nicole bookended the month, delivering substantial amounts of precipitation to
much of the south-central and eastern portions of the country. Most notably, coastal locations in both North Carolina and
Texas received rainfall totaling 13 inches or more, slowing fieldwork and causing localized flooding in low-lying areas.
Elsewhere, unusually dry conditions allowed for the quick harvest of row crops and small grains. By September 5, corn
harvesting was underway in 11 of the 18 major corn-producing States, while soybean harvesting had begun in all major
estimating States except North Carolina and Wisconsin by September 19. Nationally, sorghum harvesting inched forward
during the first half of the month but gained speed as fields in portions of Texas began to dry out. Winter wheat producers
were busy seeding their 2011 crop by mid-September. Toward month’s end, peanut producers in the Southern Low Plains
of Texas were rushing to dig their fields before feral hogs ruined the crop.
Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) 83 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
October: Above average temperatures and relatively dry conditions across much of the United States promoted the
quickest harvest pace in over 19 years for the 2010 corn and soybean crops. Elsewhere, timely late-month storm systems
dumped much-needed precipitation on areas of the Great Plains, aiding the establishment of recently seeded small grains.
Winter wheat seeding gained momentum as October progressed and warm, mostly sunny weather provided nearly ideal
fieldwork conditions; however, crop establishment in portions of the central and southern Great Plains was negatively
impacted by generally dry conditions. Despite improved weather conditions in California mid-month that allowed rice
producers to harvest their crop at a quicker pace, overall progress remained substantially behind both last year and the
5-year average. While double-digit harvest progress was evident throughout much of the major peanut-producing regions
during the latter half of the month, some fields in portions in the Southeast needed additional moisture before producers
could continue digging their crop. Warm, sunny weather across the major cotton-producing regions allowed for the
quickest harvest of the Nation’s crop since 2001. By October 31, cotton producers had harvested 61 percent of the
2010 crop, 34 percentage points ahead of last year and 17 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average.
November: Near-normal temperatures and mostly dry conditions blanketed much of the country during the month,
affording producers ample time to finish harvesting their summer row crops and seeding their over-wintered small grains.
As the month began, sugarbeet producers in the Red River Valley had finished harvesting this year’s crop, while growers
in Idaho and Michigan were busy digging the last of their fields. By November 7, corn producers had harvested 96 percent
of the Nation’s crop, 61 percentage points, or 43 days, ahead of last year and 23 percentage points ahead of the 5-year
average. With the exception of Alabama, where progress typically trails the other peanut-producing States, harvest was
complete or nearly complete by November 21. By November 28, cotton producers had harvested 91 percent of the
2010 crop, 11 percentage points ahead of last year and 10 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average.
Crop Comments
Corn: United States corn for grain production is estimated at 12.4 billion bushels, down 1 percent from the November 1
forecast and 5 percent below the record high production of 13.1 billion bushels set in 2009. United States grain yield for
2010 is estimated at 152.8 bushels per acre. This is down 1.5 bushels from the November forecast and 11.9 bushels below
the record high yield of 164.7 bushels per acre set in 2009.
Regionally, estimated yields are down across much of the Corn Belt, Central Great Plains, Ohio Valley, and Mid-Atlantic
States compared to 2009. Less than ideal soil conditions and above normal temperatures during the latter part of summer
limited yield potential in these areas. Estimated yields are up from last year in the Southern Great Plains, Mississippi
Delta, and Southeast. Improved weather and favorable harvesting conditions were the main reasons for the increase in
yield. Yields were also up in the Great Lakes and Upper Mississippi Valley, with record high yields estimated in
Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Wisconsin.
Corn planted area, at 88.2 million acres, is up 2 percent from 2009. This represents the second largest acreage since 1946,
only behind 2007 with 93.5 million acres. Area harvested for grain is estimated at 81.4 million acres, up slightly from the
November forecast and up 2 percent from 2009.
The 2010 corn objective yield data indicate the second highest number of ears per acre for the combined 10 objective
yield States (Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin), only
behind the record year of 2009. Record high ear counts were recorded in Iowa, Ohio, and Wisconsin.
Corn silage production is estimated at 107 million tons in 2010, down 1 percent from 2009. The United States silage yield
is estimated at a record high 19.3 tons per acre, tying the previous record set in 2009. Acreage harvested for silage is
estimated at 5.57 million acres, down 1 percent from a year ago.
Planting got off to a rapid start in 2010 due to favorable conditions across much of the major corn-producing region
during the middle of April. By April 25, half of the Nation’s corn acreage had been planted, the earliest date on record that
planting had progressed to the midpoint. At 50 percent complete, planting progress was 30 percentage points ahead of the
2009 pace and 28 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average pace. Planting progress was over 40 percentage points
ahead of the 5-year average at this point in time in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, and Minnesota, four of the five largest
84 Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
corn-producing States. The end of April brought widespread frost to parts of the Midwest, but damage was minimal due to
the fact that only a small amount of the crop had emerged.
Favorable planting conditions carried over into the first part of May, with 81 percent of the intended corn acreage planted
as of May 9. This represented the third quickest planting pace on record, behind only 2004 and 2000, respectively.
However, below average temperatures and wet weather dominated much of the Midwest and portions of the Plains during
the middle part of May, hampering the planting of the remaining acreage and threatening emerged plants. Producers
continued to battle wet field conditions during the latter part of May but were able to plant an additional 10 percent during
the final two weeks of the month bringing the overall total to 97 percent. This was slightly ahead of the 5-year average
pace of 96 percent.
Above average temperatures and adequate soil moisture levels in late June and early July pushed silking progress ahead of
the normal pace in many parts of the country. By July 4, nineteen percent of the Nation’s corn crop was at or beyond the
silking stage, 11 percentage points ahead of the previous year’s pace and 7 percentage points ahead of the five year
average.
As of August 1, seventy-one percent of the corn acreage was rated in good to excellent condition in the 18 major
producing States, up 3 percentage points from the previous year. Regionally, conditions were better than last year in the
central and southern Great Plains, upper Great Lakes, and upper Mississippi Valley. Moderate temperatures and adequate
soil moisture provided favorable growing conditions in these areas. Crop conditions were worse than a year ago in the
Corn Belt States of Iowa and South Dakota mainly due to excessive soil moisture. Conditions were also worse in the
Tennessee Valley and Mid-Atlantic regions due to above normal temperatures and dry conditions.
Condition ratings declined during August throughout much of the central and western Corn Belt, as well as the Tennessee
Valley, mainly due to above normal temperatures and less than ideal soil conditions. The above normal temperatures
during the first part of August promoted rapid phenological development. By September 5, virtually all of the Nation’s
corn acreage was at or beyond the dough stage, with 86 percent dented or beyond, 15 percentage points ahead of the
5-year average. Harvest was underway in 11of the 18 major estimating States at this time.
Harvesting activities were in full swing during the month of October. Virtually the entire crop had reached the mature
stage of development by October 10, twenty-six percentage points ahead of 2009 and 9 percentage points ahead of the
5-year average. As of October 31, ninety-one percent of the corn acreage was harvested, 67 percentage points ahead of
last year, and 30 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Harvest was ahead of the normal pace in all 18 major
producing States, with Illinois, Indiana, and Kansas all having less than 5 percent of the crop remaining in the field.
Harvest was complete in Kentucky, North Carolina, and Tennessee by month’s end.
Sorghum: Grain production in 2010 is estimated at 345 million bushels, up 2 percent from the November 1 forecast but
10 percent below 2009. Planted area is estimated at 5.40 million acres, down 19 percent from last year, and the lowest
planted area on record. Area harvested for grain, at 4.81 million acres, is down 13 percent from 2009, and the lowest
harvested area since 1939. Average grain yield, at 71.8 bushels per acre, is down 0.7 bushel from the previous forecast but
up 2.4 bushels from last year. Record low planted acreages were established in Mississippi, Missouri, and Texas, while
record high grain yields were set in Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas.
Silage production is estimated at 3.42 million tons, down 7 percent from 2009. Area cut for silage is estimated at
273,000 acres, up 7 percent from the previous year. Silage yields averaged 12.5 tons per acre, down 2.0 tons per acre from
2009.
While Texas continued to harvest most of the United States’ silage production, Kansas led the Nation in area planted for
all purposes, as well as area harvested for grain and grain production. Planted acreage decreased in nine of the
14 estimating States, with reductions of 13 and 30 percent, in Kansas and Texas, the two largest sorghum-producing
States, respectively.
Planting was underway in all major estimating States except Nebraska and South Dakota by the end of April. Wet fields in
portions of Kansas and Texas slowed fieldwork during May, leaving progress slightly behind normal. Crop maturation
Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) 85 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
continued at a near-normal pace throughout the summer, with harvest underway in limited areas by early July. By
November 21, producers had harvested 95 percent of the 2010 sorghum crop, 22 percentage points ahead of last year and
8 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average.
Oats: The 2010 production is estimated at 81.2 million bushels, down 13 percent from last year and is a record low
production. Yield is estimated at 64.3 bushels per acre, down 3.2 bushels from the previous year. Area planted to oats is
estimated at a record low 3.14 million acres, down 8 percent from 2009. The largest decline occurred in North Dakota,
where planted area decreased 70,000 acres from last year and is a record low for that State. In total, record lows for
planted acres were set in 12 States. Harvested area is estimated at a record low 1.26 million acres, 8 percent below last
year. The largest decline occurred in North Dakota, where area harvested for grain decreased 60,000 acres from last year
and is also a record low for that State. Record lows for harvested area occurred in 10 States.
In California, Missouri, New York, North Carolina, and Wisconsin, excessively wet weather hindered the crop, with the
average yield in these States declining 10 bushels from last year. In Idaho, favorable growing conditions led to a 6 bushel
increase in yield from last year and is a record high yield for the State. Yield increases of 5 bushels per acre occurred in
Michigan, Montana, and Texas.
During early spring, planting of the oat crop was ahead of the normal pace. By April 25, growers had planted 75 percent
of the acreage, 15 points ahead of normal. During April, emergence also was ahead of the normal pace. By April 25,
emergence was 49 percent complete, 13 points ahead of the 5-year average. As of May 30, planting was complete, with
the crop 93 percent emerged, 1 point behind the normal pace. Through June, crop development was ahead of normal in
most major oat-producing States. As of June 27, seventy-four percent of the oat acreage was headed, 3 points ahead of the
5-year average. However, North Dakota, the third largest oat-producing State, lagged 15 percentage points behind the
5-year average.
By August 1, forty-seven percent of the oat acreage was harvested, 3 points ahead of the normal pace. Also at this time,
harvest in Texas was nearly complete at 97 percent with Ohio following closely behind at 96 percent. In North Dakota,
harvest had just begun at 4 percent, and was 13 points behind normal. By August 29, harvest was 96 percent complete in
the nine major producing States, 2 points ahead of the 5-year average.
Barley: Production is estimated at 180 million bushels, down 21 percent from 2009. Average yield per acre, at
73.1 bushels, is up 0.1 bushel from last year and is the highest yield on record since estimates began in 1866. Producers
seeded 2.87 million acres in 2010, down 19 percent from last year. This is the lowest planted acreage on record. Harvested
area, at 2.47 million acres, is down 21 percent from 2009, and the lowest level since 1882. Compared with last year,
barley seedings decreased in Idaho, Montana, and North Dakota, the three largest barley-producing States. Producers in
North Dakota seeded 720,000 acres and harvested 670,000 acres, down 40 and 41 percent, respectively, from the previous
year. Seeded area in North Dakota establishes a record low for the State, while harvested area is the lowest since 1936. In
addition, Michigan, Minnesota, and South Dakota producers set new record lows for seeded acreage. A record low for
harvested area was set in South Dakota and tied in Michigan. Conversely, record high yields were set in Arizona,
Montana, and Utah.
Barley seeding was well underway across much of the major producing regions by April 18, when 18 percent of the
Nation’s crop was in the ground. Above average temperatures and mostly dry weather during February and March
promoted an early start to seeding in Washington, while cool, wet conditions and late-spring snow hampered fieldwork in
Idaho. By May 30, ninety-six percent of the 2010 crop had been seeded, with overall progress at or ahead of normal in all
five of the major estimating States except Montana. By June 13, emergence was complete or nearly complete in the five
major estimating States. Although mostly warm temperatures in early July promoted rapid head development across much
of the major barley-producing areas, overall progress in Idaho, Montana, and North Dakota remained behind normal
following slow crop development earlier in the growing season. Harvest was underway in most States by the end of July,
and had advanced to 91 percent complete by September 26, behind both last year and the 5-year average. As harvest
surpassed the halfway point during the week ending August 22, eighty-four percent of the barley crop was reported in
good to excellent condition, compared with 80 percent from the same time last year.
All wheat: Production totaled 2.21 billion bushels in 2010, down less than 1 percent from 2009. Grain area is 47.6 million
86 Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
acres, down 5 percent from last year. The United States yield is a record high 46.4 bushels per acre, 1.9 bushels higher
than 2009 and 1.5 bushels higher than the previous record set in 2008. The levels of production and changes from last year
by type are winter wheat, 1.49 billion bushels, down 3 percent; other spring wheat, 616 million bushels, up 5 percent;
Durum wheat, 107 million bushels, down 2 percent.
Winter wheat: The 2010 winter wheat production totaled 1.49 billion bushels, 3 percent below last year. The United
States yield is 46.8 bushels per acre, up 2.6 bushels from the previous year and the fourth highest on record. Area
harvested for grain is estimated at 31.7 million acres, down 8 percent from the previous year.
Planted acres were down from 2009 in many of the major Hard Red Winter growing States. While harvested acres were
down from last year in most of the major growing States, ideal weather conditions in Oklahoma and Texas resulted in an
increase of 1.70 million harvested acres from 2009 in those two States. Record high yields occurred in Colorado,
Montana, Nevada, and North Dakota. Overall, Hard Red Winter production totaled 1.02 billion bushels, up 11 percent
from 2009.
Planted and harvested acres decreased from a year ago across all of the Soft Red Winter growing area due to the late row
crop harvest and wet weather during seeding. Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, and Ohio set record lows for planted acres.
Production was down from last year in all of the Soft Red Winter growing States. Production was down 50 percent or
more from 2009 in Arkansas, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, and North Carolina. Overall, Soft Red Winter
production totaled 238 million bushels, down 41 percent from last year.
White winter production totaled 229 million bushels, up 14 percent from last year. Planted and harvested acreage in the
Pacific Northwest States (Idaho, Oregon, and Washington) was above last year's levels. Yields were also up from last year
in all three States.
Other spring wheat: Production for 2010 is estimated at 616 million bushels, up 5 percent from 2009 and the third
highest total on record. Harvested area is 13.4 million acres, up 3 percent from last year. The United States yield is a
record high 46.1 bushels per acre, 1.0 bushel higher than last year which was the previous record. Yields are above last
year’s level in all States except North Dakota and South Dakota. Average yield in North Dakota, the largest spring wheat-
producing State, was 44.0 bushels per acre, 2.0 bushels lower than 2009 but still the second highest on record. Record
high yields were set in Colorado, Montana, and Oregon.
Planting got off to a good start in many of the major spring wheat-producing States. Progress of the crop was ahead of last
year, but lagged behind the 5-year average due to cooler temperatures. The growing season was marked by below normal
temperatures and adequate moisture. Crop maturation continued behind normal throughout the growing season. As a
result, harvest progress lagged behind the normal in most States in the growing area. Minnesota and South Dakota were
the only States where harvest progressed ahead of the 5-year average.
Durum wheat: Production for 2010 is estimated at 107 million bushels, down 2 percent from 2009. Grain area harvested
is 2.53 million acres, up 4 percent from the previous year. The United States yield is 42.4 bushels per acre, 2.5 bushels
lower than the record yield set last year but still the second highest yield on record. Record yields occurred in Arizona,
California, Montana, and South Dakota. North Dakota’s yield of 37.5 bushels per acre is 1.5 bushels lower than last year
but still the third highest yield on record. Harvest progress in Montana and North Dakota was behind normal.
Rice: Production in 2010 is estimated at a record high 243 million cwt, up 1 percent from the previous forecast and up
11 percent from 2009. Planted area is estimated at 3.64 million acres, up 16 percent from 2009. Area harvested, at
3.62 million acres, is down slightly from the previous forecast but up 17 percent from the previous crop year. The average
yield for all United States rice is estimated at 6,725 pounds per acre, up 56 pounds from the previous forecast but
360 pounds below the 2009 yield.
Planted area is up from 2009 in all rice-producing States except California. Growers in Arkansas, the largest
rice-producing State, planted a record 1.79 million acres in 2010, up 21 percent from the previous year. Area planted in
Missouri, at 253,000 acres is also a record high. In California, the second largest rice-producing State, planted area is
down 1 percent from last year and totaled 558,000 acres.
Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) 87 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
Planting got off to a rapid start this season in many of the southern States due to favorable weather conditions. However,
in California, wet field conditions and spring rainstorms delayed planting. Warm temperatures throughout the growing
season across much of the southern rice-producing areas pushed crop development and harvest ahead of normal, but the
high temperatures resulted in lower than expected yields in many States. Harvest trailed well behind normal in California,
where cool temperatures and wet conditions throughout much of the season limited crop growth and delayed field work.
Favorable weather conditions in September allowed harvest to begin but wet field conditions at the end of the harvest
season affected the harvest progress and yields of late maturing varieties.
Long grain rice yielded 6,486 pounds per acre across the Nation with production at 183 million cwt. Medium grain rice
yielded 7,660 pounds per acre in 2010 with production at 57.1 million cwt. Short grain rice yielded 6,195 pounds per acre
with production at 2.66 million cwt.
Rye: Production for 2010 is estimated at 7.43 million bushels, up 6 percent from last year. Harvested area totaled
265,000 acres, up 13,000 acres from 2009. The United States yield, at 28.0 bushels per acre, is up slightly from last year.
Improved growing conditions in Oklahoma resulted in increased harvested acres and yield over 2009.
Proso millet: Production of proso millet in 2010 totaled 11.5 million bushels, up 30 percent from 2009. Planted area, at
390,000 acres, is up 11 percent, while harvested area, at 363,000 acres, is up 37 percent from last year. The average yield
for 2010 is estimated at 31.8 bushels per acre, down 1.7 bushels from last year.
All hay: Production of dry hay for 2010 is estimated at 146 million tons, down 4 percent from the October 1 forecast and
down 1 percent from the 2009 total. Area harvested is at 59.9 million acres, up slightly from both the October 1 forecast
and from last year. The average yield, at 2.43 tons per acre, is down 0.12 ton from October and down 0.04 ton from the
previous year.
Alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures: Production in 2010 is estimated at 67.9 million tons, down 5 percent from the
October 1 forecast and down 4 percent from 2009. Harvested area, at 20.0 million acres, is 4 percent below the
October 1 forecast and 6 percent below the previous year. The average yield is 3.40 tons per acre, 0.04 ton below the
October 1 forecast but 0.05 ton above 2009.
Compared with December 1, 2009, alfalfa hay harvested area decreased in the majority of the country. States with a
200,000 acre or more decrease in harvested area from last year are Kansas, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, and
Wisconsin. Compared with 2009, South Dakota showed the largest decrease in harvested acres, down 350,000 acres.
States with the largest increases in harvested acres include Montana, up 250,000 acres, and New York, up 70,000 acres.
Yields are up in the Northern Great Plains, Southern Great Plains, and the Great Lakes States. Yields are down in the
majority of the Atlantic Coast States, Southern Cornbelt, and parts of the Southwest. Minnesota recorded the largest
alfalfa hay yield increase of 0.60 tons per acre while Maryland had the largest yield decrease of 1.50 tons.
All other hay: Production in 2010 totaled 77.7 million tons, down 4 percent from the October 1 forecast but up 1 percent
from 2009. Area for harvest, at 39.9 million acres, is up 3 percent from October and up 4 percent from last year. The
average yield is estimated at 1.95 tons per acre, down 0.13 ton from October and down 0.04 ton from last year.
States with a 100,000 acre or more increase from last year include Kansas, Montana, South Dakota, Texas, and Virginia.
The largest increase occurred in Texas, up 600,000 acres from last year followed by Kansas with a 200,000 acre increase.
States with the largest acreage decreases from last year were lead by North Dakota down 190,000 acres, and Georgia,
New York and Pennsylvania, all down 50,000 acres. Due to dry summer conditions, all States in the Southeast
experienced lower yields from the previous year except Georgia, which increased 0.20 ton per acre. Yield decreases from
last year also occurred in the Central Great Plains, Tennessee Valley and the majority of the Ohio Valley and Atlantic
Coast States. Virginia had the largest yield decrease from last year at 0.60 ton per acre while Wisconsin recorded the
largest yield increase at 0.60 ton per acre. Montana, Nebraska, and North Dakota had record high yields at 1.80, 1.50, and
1.75 tons, respectively.
Forage: Eighteen States participate in the forage estimation program, which measures annual production of forage crops,
88 Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
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 2010 all haylage and greenchop
production for the 18 States in the forage program is 33.8 million tons, of which 23.1 million tons are from alfalfa and
alfalfa mixtures. The total all haylage production is up 7 percent from last year. Wisconsin, the leading haylage and
greenchop producing State, harvested 1.40 million acres of all haylage and greenchop in 2010, of which 1.30 million were
alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures, both down 100,000 acres from last year. The 18 State total forage area harvested is
35.7 million acres, including 14.5 million acres from alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures. The total forage harvested area is
71,000 acres lower than 2009 but the total forage production is up slightly from last year. The United States yield is
estimated at 2.81 tons per acre, up 0.02 ton from the previous year.
New seedings of alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures: Growers seeded 2.55 million acres of alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures during
2010, down 5 percent from the 2009 seeded area of 2.67 million acres. The largest decrease occurred in Oklahoma, down
30,000 acres from 2009 while the largest increase was in Montana with an additional 25,000 acres. The new seedings of
alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures will normally be harvested for the first time in the year following planting.
Peanuts: Production is estimated at 4.16 billion pounds, up 5 percent from the previous forecast and up 13 percent from
2009. Planted area is estimated at 1.29 million acres, up 15 percent from 2009. Area harvested is estimated at 1.26 million
acres, up 16 percent from the previous crop year. Average yield is estimated at 3,311 pounds per acre, up 169 pounds
from the previous forecast but down 110 pounds from 2009.
Production in the Southeast States (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi, and South Carolina) is estimated at
3.20 billion pounds, up 4 percent from the previous forecast and up 13 percent from 2009. Planted area is estimated at
986,000 acres, up 16 percent from 2009. Harvested area is estimated at 957,000 acres, up 16 percent from the previous
crop year. Average yield in the region is estimated at 3,340 pounds per acre, up 140 pounds from the previous forecast but
88 pounds lower than the 2009 average yield. Yields are up from the previous crop year in Florida, Mississippi, and South
Carolina but yield is down from last year in Alabama. In Georgia, the leading peanut-producing State, the yield of
3,560 pounds per acre ties the record high yield achieved in 2009. The excellent yields in Georgia can be attributed to
intensive irrigation and new drought resistant varieties.
Virginia-North Carolina production is estimated at 273 million pounds, up 5 percent from the previous forecast but down
5 percent from 2009. Planted area is estimated at 105,000 acres, up 33 percent from the previous crop year. Area for
harvest, which is estimated at 104,000 acres, is up 33 percent from 2009. The average yield is estimated at 2,627 pounds
per acre, up 163 pounds from the previous forecast but down 1,073 pounds from 2009. Hot, dry weather conditions during
the growing season stressed the crop in the region and resulted in poor yields.
Southwest peanut production (New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas) is estimated at 686 million pounds, up 12 percent
from the previous forecast and up 20 percent from 2009. Planted area is estimated at 197,000 acres, up 6 percent from the
previous crop year. Area for harvest is estimated at 194,000 acres, up 11 percent from 2009. The average yield for the
region is estimated at 3,536 pounds per acre, up 310 pounds from the previous forecast and up 271 pounds from the
previous crop year. Yield is down from last season in Oklahoma, up from last year in Texas, and unchanged from last year
in New Mexico.
Canola: Production in 2010 is estimated at a record high 2.45 billion pounds, up 66 percent from 2009 but down
3 percent from the October 1 forecast. The yield, at 1,713 pounds per acre, is down 98 pounds from last year’s record high
yield and down 73 pounds from October. Planted area is estimated at 1.45 million acres, 75 percent above last year’s
acreage. Harvested area, at 1.43 million acres, is up 76 percent from 2009. Production in North Dakota, the leading
canola-producing State, is estimated at a record high 2.18 billion pounds, up 64 percent from last year. Although the yield
in North Dakota is down 120 pounds from last year, planted area is up 75 percent.
Sunflower: The 2010 sunflower production totaled 2.74 billion pounds, down 10 percent from 2009. The United States
average yield per acre decreased 94 pounds from last year’s record high to 1,460 pounds. Planted area, at 1.95 million
acres, is 4 percent below last year. Area harvested decreased 4 percent from last year to 1.87 million acres.
Production in North Dakota, the leading sunflower-producing State, is estimated at 1.25 billion pounds, down 5 percent
Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) 89 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
from 2009. The yield in North Dakota, at 1,456 pounds per acre, is down 62 pounds from 2009. Compared with last year,
planted area in North Dakota was unchanged and harvested area decreased by less than 1 percent. Yields, compared with
last year, are down in five of the nine major sunflower-producing States, but are up in Minnesota, Nebraska, Oklahoma,
and Texas. The average yield in Nebraska is the second highest on record.
United States production of oil-type sunflower varieties, at 2.07 billion pounds, decreased 20 percent from 2009.
Harvested acres are down 14 percent from the previous year and are the lowest since 1990. Although the yield decreased
by 105 pounds, to 1,458 pounds per acre, the United States average yield for oil-type varieties is still the sixth highest on
record.
Production of non-oil sunflower varieties, at 661 million pounds, increased 46 percent from last year. Area harvested, at
451,300 acres, is up 50 percent from 2009. The average yield decreased by 41 pounds from last year’s record high to
1,465 pounds per acre.
As harvest of sunflowers began in early October, progress was slightly ahead of normal in Colorado but lagged behind
normal in Kansas, North Dakota, and South Dakota. As of October 3, harvest progress was 3 percentage points behind
normal in Kansas, North Dakota, and South Dakota. Through October, harvest in all four States progressed ahead of last
year and ahead of the 5-year average in all four States with the exception of North Dakota. By October 31, harvest was
57 percent complete in the four major States, compared with the 5-year average of 52 percent. Harvest progress continued
to progress ahead of normal through November and reached 96 percent harvested in the four major States by
November 21, six points ahead of normal for that date.
Soybeans: Production in 2010 totaled 3.33 billion bushels, down 1 percent from the November 1 forecast and down
1 percent from 2009. United States production is the second largest on record. The average yield per acre is estimated at
43.5 bushels, 0.4 bushel below the November forecast and 0.5 bushel below last year’s record high yield. Planted area for
the Nation, at 77.4 million acres, is down fractionally from last year’s record high. Soybean growers harvested a record
76.6 million acres, up slightly from last year but down less than 1 percent from November.
Yields are down or unchanged from last year in all States except Illinois, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, and the northern
tier States. Hot, dry weather during the blooming stage and throughout pod development negatively impacted soybean
yields in many areas. Compared with last year, the largest yield decrease occurred in New Jersey, down 18 bushels, and
decreases of 10 bushels or more occurred in Alabama, Delaware, Georgia, Kansas, Kentucky, Tennessee, Virginia, and
West Virginia. Meanwhile, the biggest increase from last year occurred in Wisconsin, where yields are up 10.5 bushels
from 2009. Yield increases of 5 bushels or more from last year also occurred in Illinois, Minnesota, New York, and Texas.
New record high yields were set in Illinois, New York, and Wisconsin.
The 2010 soybean objective yield survey data indicate that final average pod counts were higher than last year in seven of
the eleven objective yield States. Compared with last year, pod counts were up more than 15 percent in Indiana and Ohio
and more than 20 percent in Illinois and Minnesota. The only States that showed a decrease in pod counts from last year
were Arkansas, Kansas, Missouri, and South Dakota.
Soybean planting got off to a good start this season as conditions were much improved compared with last year. The
month of May began with planting in all States at or ahead of last year’s pace and, with the exception of Louisiana, at or
ahead of their 5-year average. During mid-May, several soybean-growing areas received cool, wet weather, but significant
progress was made in many areas during the last week of May. As of May 30, planting progress had reached 74 percent
complete, only one point behind normal, but 11 percentage points ahead of last year. During June, there were several
heavy storms that moved through soybean-growing areas, slowing planting progress. Rainfall was particularly heavy at
times in parts of the Central and Southern Great Plains, and the western Corn Belt. By June 27, ninety-seven percent of
the soybean crop was planted, 2 points ahead of last year but equal to the 5-year average.
Emergence of the soybean crop began ahead of both normal and last year’s pace, and remained very close to normal and a
few points ahead of last year’s pace throughout June. Soybeans reached 97 percent emerged by July 4, equal to the 5-year
average but 2 points ahead of last year. Blooming progress for soybeans during July followed a very similar pattern to
emergence progress, remaining several points ahead of last year but in line with the normal pace. As of August 1,
90 Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
eighty-six percent of the Nation’s crop was blooming, 3 points ahead of normal and 12 points ahead of last year.
Fifty-three percent of the acreage was setting pods by August 1, five points ahead of normal and 20 points ahead of last
year.
Soybean development continued to stay ahead of normal during the month of August. By August 29, ninety-six percent of
the soybean crop was at or beyond the pod-setting stage, four points ahead of last year and 1 point ahead of normal. Of the
States where progress was lagging behind normal, the only State that was more than a point behind the 5-year average at
the end of August was Kansas, which lagged behind the normal pace by 5 percentage points.
During September, crop conditions declined or remained unchanged in all of the major-producing States except Illinois,
Louisiana, Missouri, and Nebraska. The largest decline occurred in North Carolina, down 30 percentage points from last
month, as hot, dry weather during most of September was followed by excessive rain at the end of the month. As of
October 3, eighty-eight percent of acreage was dropping leaves or beyond, 11 points ahead of last year’s pace and 3 points
ahead of the 5-year average. Progress was ahead of normal in all major-producing States except Iowa, Kansas, Missouri,
and North Dakota. The percent of acreage dropping leaves was more than 10 points ahead of normal in Kentucky and
Michigan.
Soybean harvest in the eighteen major States was 37 percent complete at the beginning of October, 23 points ahead of last
year’s pace and 9 points ahead of normal. Mostly dry weather across most of the soybean-producing areas during the first
two weeks of October further accelerated harvest progress. By October 17, eighty-three percent of soybeans were
harvested, 54 percentage points higher than last year and 21 points ahead of the 5-year average. Although a few showers
occurred in parts of the Midwest during the latter part of October which briefly slowed harvest, progress reached
96 percent complete by October 31, seventeen percentage points ahead of normal. This is the earliest date that 96 percent
of the crop was harvested since 1975 when published data became available.
Flaxseed: Production of flaxseed in 2010 totaled 9.06 million bushels, up 22 percent from last year and 58 percent above
2008. Harvested area totaled 418,000 acres in 2010, up 33 percent from last year. The average yield for 2010, at
21.7 bushels per acre, represents the second highest yield on record, only behind the 2009 record yield of 23.6 bushels per
acre. Production increased from the previous year in all estimating states except for Minnesota.
In North Dakota, the leading flaxseed-producing State, production totaled 8.54 million bushels in 2010, up 21 percent
from 2009. Growers harvested 388,000 acres of flaxseed, up 32 percent from last year. The average yield in North Dakota
is estimated at 22.0 bushels per acre, two bushels below the State record yield of 24.0 bushels per acre set in 2009.
Safflower: Production of safflower in 2010, at 221 million pounds, is down 9 percent from 2009. Growers planted
175,000 acres in 2010, unchanged from last year, while harvested area, at 167,700 acres, is up 1 percent from the previous
year. The yield, at 1,320 pounds per acre, decreased 142 pounds from 2009. California producers led the Nation,
producing 125 million pounds of safflower, down 12 percent from 2009.
Other Oilseeds: Mustard seed production for 2010 decreased 15 percent from last year to 41.9 million pounds. Planted
area, at 50,500 acres, is down 2 percent and harvested area, at 48,100 acres, is down 3 percent from 2009. The average
yield is 870 pounds per acre, 121 pounds below last year’s record high yield.
Rapeseed production increased 172 percent from last year to 4.16 million pounds, the largest production since 2004.
Growers planted 2,300 acres of rapeseed in 2010, an increase of 1,300 acres from last year. Harvested area, at 2,200 acres,
is also up 1,300 acres from last year. The average yield is 1,891 pounds per acre, up 191 pounds from last year, and is the
highest yield since records began in 1991.
Cotton: Upland cotton production is estimated at 17.8 million 480-pound bales, up slightly from the December 1 forecast
and up 51 percent from last year. The United States yield for Upland cotton is estimated at 814 pounds per acre, up
7 pounds from last month and up 48 pounds from 2009. Harvested area, at 10.5 million acres, is down 1 percent from last
month but up 42 percent from last year. Upland planted area, estimated at 10.8 million acres, is up 20 percent from last
year.
Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) 91 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
Upland growers in the Southeastern region (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia)
finished planting by mid-June. Hot, dry weather during much of the summer allowed the crop to develop ahead of normal.
By the end of August, limited harvest was underway in Alabama and Georgia. By late-September, defoliation and harvest
were underway throughout the region. Harvest neared completion by the end of November. Objective yield data in
Georgia show bolls per acre to be the lowest in the last 7 years and boll weight to be at its lowest level since 1998. North
Carolina boll weights are at their lowest level since 2005.
In the Delta region (Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, and Tennessee) producers finished planting by the first of
June. The crop developed quickly due to hot, dry conditions for much of the summer. Defoliation and harvest had begun
by late-August in the region. Harvest was completed by mid-November. In Louisiana, objective yield data show boll
weight to be the lightest in over 10 years. Objective yield data in Arkansas show the bolls per acre to be the largest on
record in Arkansas and the largest in the last 5 years in Mississippi.
Texas producers finished planting Upland cotton by the middle of June. In the Panhandle, warm temperatures and timely
rains allowed the crop to develop well ahead of normal. Defoliation and limited harvest was underway by the middle of
September. In South Texas, harvest was complete by mid-September. Harvest progressed rapidly in the Panhandle of
Texas through the first half of October. However, harvest came to a halt after strong thunderstorms moved through some
parts of the growing area. Reports from growers indicated some damage to the crop due to heavy rain, hail, and high
winds. Objective yield data in Texas show boll weight to be the lowest since 2005.
In Kansas and Oklahoma, the Upland crop developed ahead of normal during the growing season. In Oklahoma, harvest
got underway in late September, while Kansas producers began harvesting in October.
Upland producers in California and Arizona completed planting by mid-June. The Upland crop developed behind normal
throughout the summer. In Arizona, harvest began during the first week of September. In California, harvest got underway
in October.
American Pima producers planted 204,200 acres, up 44 percent from last year. Harvested area, at 201,700 acres, is up
46 percent from last year. Production is estimated at 497,500 bales (480-pound), down slightly from the August 1 forecast
but up 24 percent from last year. The United States yield is estimated at 1,184 pounds per acre, up 30 pounds from the
August 1 forecast but down 205 pounds from last year.
All cotton ginnings totaled 16,447,200 running bales prior to January 1, compared with 10,812,000 running bales prior to
the same date last year.
Cottonseed: Production for 2010, based on a 3-year average lint-seed ratio, is expected to total 6.19 million tons, up
49 percent from last year.
Tobacco: United States all tobacco production for 2010 totaled 720 million pounds, slightly above the October forecast
but down 12 percent from 2009. Growers harvested 337,450 acres, down slightly from the previous forecast and 5 percent
below a year ago. Yield per acre averaged 2,133 pounds per acre, up 23 pounds from the previous forecast but 190 pounds
lower than 2009.
Flue-cured tobacco production totaled 453 million pounds, 1 percent above the previous forecast but 14 percent lower
than last year. Harvested acres totaled 210,900 acres in 2010, slightly below the October 1 forecast and 6 percent below a
year ago. In Virginia, acreage for 2010 remained unchanged, while acreage decreased in all other flue-cured States. Yields
averaged 2,148 pounds per acre, 25 pounds above the last forecast but down 200 pounds from 2009. Yield per acre
decreased from a year ago in North Carolina, but it increased in all other flue-cured States. Heavy rainfall in early October
reduced North Carolina yields, while other States reported ideal conditions for tobacco growth.
Burley production totaled 188 million pounds, up 1 percent from the October forecast but 13 percent below last year.
Growers harvested 97,600 acres, slightly below the previous forecast and 4 percent below 2009. Yields averaged
1,922 pounds per acre, 25 pounds above October but 187 pounds below a year ago.
92 Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
Sugarbeets: Production for 2010 is estimated at 31.9 million tons, up fractionally from the November 1 forecast and
7 percent above last year. Growers in the 10 major sugarbeet-producing States planted 1.17 million acres, a decrease of
1 percent from 2009, while the area harvested totaled 1.16 million acres, up 1 percent from last year. Estimated yield, at
27.6 tons per acre, is 0.1 ton below the November forecast but 1.7 tons above last year and establishes a record high.
Record high yields were also set in Colorado, Minnesota, North Dakota, and Wyoming. Production increased from last
year in three of the four largest sugarbeet-producing States.
An abnormally mild winter in Michigan led to an early return to fieldwork, and by mid-April, sugarbeet producers in the
State were nearly finished planting their 2010 crop. Similarly, warm, mostly dry conditions in Minnesota and North
Dakota provided ample time for planting. By May 2, ninety-six percent of the Nation’s crop had been planted, well ahead
of both last year and the 5-year average. Harvest was underway in Michigan and the Red River Valley by mid-September.
Ideal fieldwork conditions promoted an active harvest pace throughout much of the fall, and by November 7, producers
had dug 97 percent of this year’s crop, 6 percentage points ahead of last year and 3 percentage points ahead of the 5-year
average.
Sugarcane: Production of sugarcane for sugar and seed in 2010 is estimated at 29.5 million tons, of which 27.9 million
tons was utilized for sugar and 1.69 million tons for seed. Total production for sugar and seed is up less than 1 percent
from the December 1 forecast but down 3 percent from 2009. Sugarcane producers harvested 881,200 acres for sugar and
seed in 2010, up 1 percent from both the December forecast and last year. Yield for sugar and seed is estimated at
33.5 tons per acre, unchanged from the December forecast but down 1.3 tons from 2009.
In Louisiana, expectations for a bumper crop were diminished when unusually dry weather conditions ruled the summer
months, resulting in decreased yields and overall production. Elsewhere, unseasonably cold temperatures in Florida in late
December damaged much of the State’s remaining crop, prompting a rapid harvest pace in hopes of preventing as much
loss as possible.
Dry beans: United States dry edible bean production is estimated at 31.8 million cwt for 2010, up 25 percent from 2009.
Planted area is estimated at 1.91 million acres, up 24 percent from last year. Harvested area is estimated at 1.84 million
acres, 26 percent above the previous year. The average United States yield is estimated at 1,726 pounds per acre, a
decrease of 11 pounds from 2009.
Production is expected to be higher in 14 of the 18 States in the dry bean program in 2010. The top five producing States
all showed increased production from last season. Production in North Dakota, the largest producing State, was up
35 percent from a year ago, while Michigan increased 21 percent from 2009. Minnesota and Nebraska’s production
increased 22 percent and 30 percent, respectively. Idaho’s production is up 29 percent from last season.
In North Dakota, harvest began the final week of August, about three weeks ahead of last season and was essentially
complete by mid-October, a month ahead of last year. In Michigan, harvest began on a limited basis the week of
August 23. By September 7, dry beans were turning quickly and continued to be harvested. Harvest wrapped up the week
ending October 17.
Excessive moisture slowed maturation and harvest in Minnesota. Several growers reported leaving unharvested beans in
the fields. In Idaho, cool, wet weather this spring delayed planting and negatively impacted crop development.
Lentils: Production of lentils is estimated at 8.66 million cwt, up 48 percent from last year. Area for harvest is estimated
at 634,000 acres, up 56 percent from the previous year. Average yield is expected to be 1,365 pounds per acre, down
75 pounds per acre from 2009. If realized, these would be the largest planted, harvested, and production levels since
records began in 1986.
North Dakota’s production, at 3.93 million cwt, is up 54 percent from 2009. Harvested area, at 255,000 acres, is up
56 percent from last year, while average yield, at 1,540 pounds per acre, decreased by 20 pounds. Planting started in late
April, about the same as last year and was essentially completed by the end of May. Soil moisture supplies were rated
Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) 93 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
mostly adequate throughout the growing season with more favorable temperatures reported than in 2009. Harvest started
in early August and was finished by the end of September, about a week behind the previous year.
Montana’s production is estimated at 3.36 million cwt, up 110 percent from last year. Harvested area increased
113 percent from 2009, while average yield decreased by 20 pounds per acre to 1,360. Lentils were 94 percent planted by
May 31 and 99 percent emerged by June 20. Crop condition by late June was rated mostly in the good to excellent range.
Lentil harvest was nearly completed by October 3.
Washington’s production, at 858,000 cwt, is down 18 percent from 2009. Harvested area increased 4 percent from a year
ago, but average yield decreased by 300 pounds per acre to 1,100. Growers reported that the extremely wet spring and
early warm summer conditions negatively impacted yields this year. Quality has been reported as good but seed size is
smaller than normal.
Production in Idaho, at 513,000 cwt, is down 21 percent from last year. Harvested area is up 4 percent from last season
but the average yield decreased 300 pounds per acre to 950. The cold, wet spring increased disease and weed pressure in
much of the growing region.
Wrinkled seed peas: Production is estimated at 580,000 cwt in 2010, down 34 percent from 2009. Idaho production, at
190,000 cwt, is up 6 percent from 2009. Production in Washington, at 390,000 cwt, decreased 44 percent from last year.

Area for harvest, at 711,400 acres, is 15 percent below a year ago. Average yield is estimated at 1,999 pounds per acre,
down 46 pounds from last season.
North Dakota’s dry edible pea production is estimated at 8.12 million cwt, down 30 percent from last season. Harvested
acres, at 400,000, decreased 17 percent and average yield is down 370 pounds per acre from last season. Planting began
about a week behind normal and finished about a week ahead of the 2005-2009 average. Soil moisture supplies were rated
mostly adequate and the 2010 crop condition was rated mostly good throughout the entire growing season. Harvest started
the final week of July, a week ahead of last year, and was essentially finished by the end of August, two weeks ahead of
the previous season.
Production in Montana, at 4.14 million cwt, is up 38 percent from the 2009 estimate. Harvested area decreased by
8 percent to 207,000 acres but average yield increased by 670 pounds per acre to 2,000. The crop was 93 percent planted
by May 31 and 96 percent emerged by June 13, about the same as last year. Crop condition, by late June, was rated as
mostly good to excellent. Producers began harvest at the end of July and it was 99 percent completed by September 12.
Production in Idaho is expected to be 480,000 cwt, down 38 percent from 2009. Harvested area, at 30,000 acres,
decreased 27 percent, while average yield, at 1,600 pounds per acre, decreased 300 pounds from last year. Washington’s
production estimate, at 1.29 million cwt, is 24 percent below last year. Area for harvest, at 68,000 acres, decreased
20 percent from last season, while yield, at 1,900 pounds per acre, decreased 100 pounds. Wet spring and early warm
summer conditions reduced this season’s yields.
Austrian winter peas: Production of Austrian winter peas is estimated at 237,000 cwt, up 30 percent from 2009. Area
harvested is estimated at 17,900 acres, up 31 percent from last year. Average yield is expected to be 1,666 pounds per
acre, up 338 pounds per acre from last season.
The Idaho Austrian winter pea production estimate, at 99,000 cwt, is up 3 percent from last year. A cold, wet spring,
disease, and weed problems lowered yield in most of the growing area.
Montana’s production estimate of 110,000 cwt is up 96 percent from last year. Harvested area is up 17 percent from a year
ago at 7,000 acres. In July, high temperatures and below normal precipitation were common. By mid-August, the
prevailing hot, dry conditions aided harvest. Oregon’s production estimate, at 28,000 cwt, is down 7 percent from last
year. Harvested area increased 200 acres to 1,900.
94 Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
Winter potatoes: California winter potato estimates are combined with spring potatoes beginning in 2010.
Spring potatoes: Production for 2010 is estimated at 24.8 million cwt, down 5 percent from the May 1 forecast but
16 percent above 2009. Harvested area totaled 85,900 acres, down 4 percent from the previous forecast but up 17 percent
from a year ago. The average yield of 289 cwt per acre is down 2 cwt from the May 1 forecast but unchanged from 2009.
Florida production is estimated at 7.95 million cwt, up 5 percent from the May 1 forecast and 3 percent above the 2009
production. In California, production decreased 11 percent from the previous forecast but increased significantly from last
year due to winter and summer acreage included in the spring total. Production in Texas increased 1 percent from 2009.
Wet, spring conditions and a hot summer hindered plant growth in North Carolina, permitting growers to produce
13 percent fewer spring potatoes than in the previous year. Arizona production decreased 8 percent from last year.
Summer potatoes: Growers produced 11.5 million cwt of summer potatoes in 2010, down 2 percent from the September
forecast and down 19 percent from 2009. Harvested area, at 37,100 acres, is down 11 percent from last year. The average
yield of 311 cwt per acre is 32 cwt below 2009. Production declined from the previous year in eight of the nine producing
States. Beginning in 2010, summer potatoes in California were combined with spring potatoes.
In Texas, production decreased 29 percent, largely due to a decline in harvested acres. Illinois potato fields received
excessive rainfall during the spring, reducing yields by 35 cwt per acre from the previous year. In Virginia, producers lost
acres due to hot, dry conditions. Colorado summer potato production decreased 2 percent from the previous year, but
quality was reported to be in good condition. In Kansas, production decreased 15 percent.
Fall potatoes: Production of fall potatoes for 2010 is estimated at 361 million cwt, virtually unchanged from the
December 1 forecast but down 8 percent from last year. Area harvested, at 881,300 acres, is down slightly from the
December 1 forecast and 4 percent lower than last year. The average yield is estimated at 409 cwt per acre, unchanged
from the December 1 forecast but 20 cwt below last year’s record high yield.
Idaho’s yield is forecast at 389 cwt per acre, 26 cwt below last year due to cool and wet, spring conditions. Production in
Idaho is down 14 percent from last year largely due to an 8 percent decrease in harvested acres, the lowest acreage on
record since 1980. Yield, at 550 cwt in the 10 Southwest counties is a record high. In Colorado, quality was reported to be
in good condition. In California, yields were affected by a cool, wet spring and fall rains.
In North Dakota, crop condition was rated mostly good to excellent in June and August, and mostly fair to good
throughout July. Harvest began in late August, ahead of both last year and the five year average. Wisconsin growers
reported wet soil conditions in the southern and northern tiers of the State. In Michigan, crop conditions were nearly ideal
with very few abandoned acres.
In Maine, the potato crop emerged 1-2 weeks early, with a mix of rain and sun promoting rapid growth. Quality was
reported in good condition across the State. In Massachusetts, early plantings got the crop off to a good start. Above
average yields were received in some areas.
All potatoes: Total 2010 United States potato production is estimated at 397 million cwt, 8 percent below the 2009 crop.
Harvested area, at 1.00 million acres, is down 4 percent from last year. The average yield, at 395 cwt per acre, is down
19 cwt from last year’s record high yield. Fall production is down 8 percent from the previous year and summer is down
19 percent. Spring production increased 16 percent from 2009 largely due to the inclusion of California’s winter and
summer potatoes in the spring total beginning in 2010.
Sweet potatoes: Production of sweet potatoes in 2010 is estimated at 23.8 million cwt, up 22 percent from last year.
Growers harvested 117,000 acres, up 21 percent from last year. Yield per acre, at 204 cwt, is up 3 cwt from last year and
is a new record high.
In North Carolina, a record high was set for production, up 6 percent from 2009. Although yield was down 20 cwt from
last year, acres harvested increased 17 percent. In Mississippi, growing conditions were reported excellent, and timely,
localized rains provided adequate moisture for a good crop. Despite cool weather that delayed planting, growers had an
Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) 95 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
excellent crop with record acreage, yields, and production. Increases in sweet potato plantings have been driven by
growing demand due to its healthy properties and processing usage.
Peppermint oil: Production in 2010 is estimated at 6.36 million pounds, down less than 1 percent from last year.
Harvested area is estimated at 71,300 acres, up 2 percent from 2009. Washington’s harvested area, at 16,000 acres, is
down 500 acres from a year ago, while Oregon showed a 500 acre increase from 2009. Acreage in Indiana, Michigan,
Oregon and Wisconsin increased from 2009, while California, Idaho, and Washington showed a decrease from a year ago.
Production increased in Indiana, Michigan, Oregon, and Wisconsin, while California, Idaho, and Washington reported
lower production than in 2009.
Spearmint oil: Production is estimated at 2.32 million pounds for 2010, down 14 percent from last year. Harvested area is
estimated at 18,600 acres, down 9 percent from 2009. Average yield is estimated at 125 pounds of oil per acre, down
7 pounds from last year. Growers in Indiana and Wisconsin showed increases in harvested acreage from a year ago, while
Idaho, Oregon, and Washington producers showed acreage decreases. Michigan’s harvested acres remained the same.
Production increased in Indiana and Michigan, while Idaho, Oregon, Washington, and Wisconsin showed a decrease.
Hops: Production for Idaho, Oregon, and Washington in 2010 totaled 65.5 million pounds, down 31 percent from the
2009 crop of 94.7 million pounds. Production dropped 37 percent in Idaho and declined 30 percent from last year in both
Washington and Oregon. Acreage decreased in all three States; 42 percent in Idaho, 24 percent in Oregon, and 18 percent
in Washington. Yields increased from a year ago in Idaho to 2,129 pounds per acre but decreased to 1,791 and
2,147 pounds per acre in Oregon and Washington, respectively.
Washington growers accounted for 80 percent of the United States hop production for 2010. Zeus and
Columbus/Tomahawk were the leading varieties in Washington, accounting for 38 percent of the State’s hop production.
In Oregon, Nugget and Willamette were the major varieties, accounting for 62 percent of the State’s hop production.
Maple syrup: The preliminary 2010 United States maple syrup production estimate totaled 1.96 million gallons, down
19 percent from last year. The preliminary number of taps is estimated at 9.27 million, 3 percent above the 2009 total of
8.98 million. Yield per tap is estimated to be 0.211 gallons, down 21 percent from the previous season. Vermont led all
States in production with 890,000 gallons, a decrease of 3 percent from 2009. Production in Maine was the second highest
on record, at 310,000 gallons, down from the 2009 record high of 395,000 gallons.
Temperatures were reported to be too warm for optimal sap flow in all States. On average, the season lasted 23 days
compared with 28 days last year. In most States, the season started sooner than last year. The earliest sap flow reported
was January 14 in Vermont. The latest sap flow reported was May 1 in Maine. On average, approximately 46 gallons of
sap were required to produce one gallon of syrup. This compares with 43 gallons in 2009. The majority of the syrup
produced in each State this year was medium to dark in color with the exception of Maine.
Coffee: Hawaii coffee production is estimated at 7.90 million pounds (parchment basis) for the 2010-2011 season, down
9 percent from the previous season. On the Big Island, dry weather, a late harvesting season, and insect damage negatively
impacted coffee yields. Puerto Rico coffee production for the 2010-2011 season is estimated at 9.00 million pounds
(parchment basis), unchanged from last season’s revised production.
Taro: Hawaii taro production for the 2010 crop year is estimated at 3.90 million pounds, down 3 percent from the
previous year. Area in crop, at 475 acres, is up 30 acres from 2009. Weather varied throughout the year with drought in
some areas and excess precipitation in others. Grower reports indicate that apple snails, feral pigs, leaf blight, and pocket
rot negatively affected production.
96 Crop Production 2010 Summary (January 2011) USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service
Statistical Methodology
Survey procedures: The estimates in this report are based primarily on surveys conducted the first two weeks of
December. The December Agricultural Survey (DAS) is a probability survey that includes a sample of approximately
84,000 farm operators selected from a list of producers that ensures all operations in the United States have a chance to be
selected. These operators were contacted by mail, internet, telephone, or personal interview to obtain information on crop
acreage, yield and production for the 2010 crop year.
Estimating procedures: National and State level objective yield and farm operator reported data (DAS) were reviewed
for reasonableness and consistency with historical estimates. The survey data were also reviewed considering weather
patterns and crop progress compared with previous years. Each Field Office submits an estimate and written analysis for
their State to the Agricultural Statistics Board (ASB). The ASB uses the survey data, administrative data, and the State
analysis to prepare the estimates published in this report.
Revision policy: Estimates contained in this report may be revised the following year, if new information is available that
would justify a change. Estimates will also be reviewed after data for the 5-year Census of Agriculture are available. No
revisions will be made after that date.
Reliability: The surveys used to make the acreage, yield, and production estimates contained in this report are subject to
sampling and non-sampling type errors that are common to all surveys. Reliability of the objective yield and farmer
survey must be treated separately because the survey designs for the two surveys are different. The objective yield
indications (corn, cotton, and soybeans) are subject to sampling variability because all acres of a given commodity are not
included in the sample.
The farm operator survey indications are also subject to sampling variability because not all operations with commodities
of interest are included in the sample. This variability, as measured by the relative standard error at the National level, is
approximately 1.2 for corn, 1.9 for Upland cotton and 1.1 for soybeans. This means that chances are approximately 95 out
of 100 that survey estimates for production will be within plus or minus 2.2 percent for corn, 3.8 percent, for Upland
cotton, and 2.2 percent for soybeans.
Survey indications are also subject to non-sampling errors such as omission, duplication, imputation for missing data, and
mistakes in reporting, recording, and processing the data. These errors cannot be measured directly, but they are
minimized through rigid quality controls in the data collection process and a careful review of all reported data for
consistency and reasonableness.
