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.

Prior to 2017, the last major (Category 3 or higher) hurricane to strike the United States was Wilma in southern Florida on October 24, 2005. Hurricanes Harvey and Irma caused great devastation in Texas (starting August 25) and Florida (starting September 10), respectively. Harvey's damage was mostly caused by epic flooding from Houston to Beaumont- Port Arthur, Texas, and all areas in between, and well as southwestern Louisiana. However, high winds from Harvey battered the central Texas coast, damaging cotton and farm infrastructure. Other agricultural damage related to Harvey included drowned livestock and submerged rice fields. Little more than 2 weeks later, on September 10, Irma struck the Florida Keys before reaching the mainland near Marco Island. High winds and heavy rain spread northward throughout Florida's peninsula and into other parts of the Southeast, causing damage to citrus, sugarcane, vegetables, timber, pecans, row crops, nursery crops, and farm fences and buildings. Some farms were damaged by both wind and flooding, and some southern Atlantic coastal areas were affected by a large storm surge and salt-water intrusion. Florida also suffered widespread and extensive power outages in Irma's wake. Before reaching the Southeast, Irma had ripped through a string of Caribbean islands, including the northern U.S. Virgin Islands of St. Thomas and St. John. Then, on September 20, Hurricane Maria hit the other major U.S. Virgin Island of St. Croix before making a direct strike on Puerto Rico as a high-end Category 4 storm. In the storms' wake, the electrical grid was almost completely destroyed in Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and many areas reported catastrophic damage to homes and farms. By early 2018, power on the U.S. Virgin Islands was more than 90 percent restored, but the Puerto Rican power grid was carrying only 80 percent of its pre-storm electrical load. Although the 2017 growing season was "imperfect" across the Midwest, largely due to erratic rainfall, a lack of extreme heat helped to boost the Nation's corn yield to its highest level on record-slightly above 2016. The Nation's soybean yield was down about 6 percent form 2016, but production reached a record level in part due to record-high acreage. In stark contrast, a punishing drought developed by late spring and lasted through the remainder of the year across the Northern Plains, harming spring-sown small grains and severely stressing rangeland and pastures. Spring wheat yield was down about 13 percent from last year, while Durum wheat yield was down nearly 42 percent. The Northern Plain's drought later spread to parts of the Northwest, contributing to an extremely active wildfire season. Northwestern fires, which led to smoky conditions and poor air quality for long periods of time, helped to push the Nation's annual wildfire acreage into near-record territory. Based on preliminary reports, nearly 10 million acres of vegetation burned in 2017, compared to a record-high 10.1 million acres in 2015 and 9.9 million acres in 2006. In California, the fire season never really ended, as massive outbreaks struck Napa and environs in October and several coastal southern counties in December. Much earlier, fast-moving March grassfires had devastated numerous farms and ranches on the Central and Southern High Plains. And, before that, a truly impressive Western winter wet season had virtually erased multi-year precipitation deficits, including much of California's 4-year drought. However, the precipitation, which significantly improved Western water-supply prospects, also resulted in the February near-failure of northern California's Oroville Dam and contributed to grass and brush growth that later helped to fuel numerous large wildfires. Late in the year, the return of La Niña contributed to drought development or expansion across the southern half of the United States. Across the Central and Southern Plains, developing drought late in the year was a concern with respect to poorly established winter wheat, especially when bitterly cold weather arrived in late December. During 2016, drought coverage in the contiguous United States ranged from a U.S. Drought Monitor-era record low of 4.5 percent on May 23 to 26.4 percent on December 26. Winter 2016-17: La Niña quickly faded, disappearing altogether by winter's end. However, a pool of cool water persisted over the northeastern Pacific Ocean, possibly contributing to an active Pacific jet stream that led to the Nation's wettest December-February period since 1997-98. And, despite a few sharp, short-lived cold snaps, general winter warmth dominated all but the Nation's northwestern corner. The warmth intensified as winter progressed, culminating in the Nation's warmest February since 1954. Aside from fleeting Arctic outbreaks in mid-December and early January, cold weather was largely confined to the Northwest. (The persistent Northwestern chill, accompanied by periods of precipitation, resulted in winter hardship for livestock and wildlife, as well as damage to some storage facilities due to heavy snow loads.) Across the Plains and Midwest, enough snow preceded the two cold snaps in most areas to limit concerns about adverse impacts on winter wheat. In fact, across the Central and Southern Plains, drought rather than cold was a greater concern with respect to wheat. Between the end of November and the end of February, the portion of the winter wheat crop rated very poor to poor increased from 15 to 27 percent in Colorado; 13 to 21 percent in Kansas; 16 to 20 percent in Texas; and 12 to 15 percent in Oklahoma. Wetness across the northern and western United States highlighted an overall stormy winter, although many storms bypassed the Mid-South and the Mid- Atlantic. Winter precipitation was particularly impressive from northern and central California to the northern Intermountain West. In fact, flooding developed on both sides of the Sierra Nevada crest in early January, followed by extensive flooding and flood-control efforts during February in parts of California. According to the Drought Monitor, drought covered just 14.1 percent of the country by the end of February, down from 31.5 percent on November 29, 2016. Most of the drought eradication occurred in the West, including California, which experienced a winter decline in drought coverage from 73 to 9 percent. In contrast, winter precipitation was insufficient to erase drought from the southern Appalachians to southern New England, while pockets of drought developed, persisted or intensified from the Central and Southern Plains into the middle Mississippi Valley. Spring: Active weather led to a net decrease in the Nation's drought coverage, as widespread, frequent storm systems bypassed only a few areas, such as the Northern Plains and the lower Southeast. However, an extended period of well-placed storms ended in late April, when too much rain in a short period of time across the Mid-South and lower Midwest caused extensive planting delays and lowland flooding. Other spring highlights included a variety of weather extremes. In March, for example, significant events included early month wildfires on the Central and Southern Plains and mid-month freezes in the Southeast. The Southeastern freezes followed a mid-March Northeastern blizzard. Several weeks later, in late April, an historic, late-season snow storm on the Central and Southern High Plains flattened winter wheat and resulted in noteworthy livestock losses. Meanwhile, an impressive Western snow-accumulation season finally peaked in April, following a final flurry of storms. The early part of the snow-melt season proceeded mostly in an orderly fashion, although periods of warm and/or wet weather led to localized lowland flooding. Lingering effects from the wet winter and early spring included planting and crop developmental delays, especially in California and the Northwest. Drought covered just 4.5 percent of the country-a U.S. Drought Monitor-era record low-by May 23, down from a March peak of 16 percent. The record-low drought coverage occurred on the strength of late-spring rainfall in the Southeast, and in spite of emerging drought on the Northern Plains. Summer: One of the biggest weather events of the summer-the arrival and persistence of Hurricane Harvey along the Texas coast-unfolded in the final days of the season. Harvey caused flooding on a massive scale in late August from Houston, Texas, to southwestern Louisiana, setting rainfall and crest records across a vast area. Other summer highlights included persistent Western heat; a fast-developing and hard-hitting drought on the Northern Plains; and a Midwestern growing season that featured mostly favorable temperatures but erratic rainfall. The Western heat contributed to a large number of wildfires, which seasonally shifted from the Southwest to California and the Northwest as the summer progressed. Other contributing factors to Western wildfires included an abundance of light fuels (e.g. grass and brush), cured by summer heat in the wake of a wet winter, as well as 6.3 billion standing dead trees, according to the U.S. Forest Service. During the mid- to late-summer period, stagnant air (due to a ridge of high pressure) helped to trap smoke from western North American wildfires near the earth's surface. Reductions in visibility and air quality due to smoke and haze were especially prominent and persistent in the Northwest. Meanwhile, extremely dry conditions on the Northern High Plains were accompanied by periods of heat. Agricultural casualties included rangeland, pastures, and spring wheat-arguably the region's worst drought since 1988. The rapid drought expansion across the Northern Plains-and later the Northwest-boosted the Nation's drought coverage to 13.54 percent by September 5. By summer's end, extreme to exceptional drought (D3 to D4) cloaked 44 percent of Montana and portions of the western Dakotas. Autumn: La Niña's influence on North American weather patterns became more obvious and profound as autumn progressed. Most notably, a marked drying trend developed across much of the southern United States. For some areas, including coastal Texas and peninsular Florida, the sudden dryness followed historic, hurricane-related rainfall. Meanwhile, autumn warmth accompanied the dryness, especially in the Southwest. During the first few weeks of autumn, however, hurricanes dominated the weather headlines. In the western Gulf Coast region, recovery from Hurricane Harvey's record-setting downpours was just getting underway as September began. Days later, Hurricane Irma ripped through a string of Caribbean islands, including the U.S. Virgin Islands of St. Thomas and St. John, before taking aim on Florida and other parts of the southeastern United States. Finally, Hurricane Maria spared the mainland United States but devastated Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Island of St. Croix. Farther west, some of the Plains' winter wheat experienced unfavorable autumn weather, resulting in poor crop establishment. Weather-related concerns with respect to wheat included lingering drought on the Northern Plains and late autumn warmth and dryness across the Central and Southern Plains. Meanwhile, the corn harvest ended late in portions of the Midwest, in part due late crop maturation but also because of occasional rain-related delays. Elsewhere, generally wet autumn weather in the Northwest contrasted with warm, mostly dry conditions in the Southwest. Northern California, with abundant light fuels (e.g. cured grasses and brush) and heavy fuels (e.g. dead or dying trees), experienced devastating October wildfires-but later received some much-needed rain and high-elevation snow. A new round of fires in southern California began in early December, days after the official end of meteorological autumn. Only 6 months after drought covered just 4.5 percent of the contiguous United States, coverage expanded to 21.1 percent by November 28. La Niña's influence in drying out much of the southern United States accounted for much of the drought development. December: Raging wildfires in southern California and a late-month cold wave east of the Rockies highlighted a La Niña-driven weather regime. La Niña also likely contributed to a broad expanse of drier-than-normal conditions, as well as unusually warm weather across the Nation's southwestern quadrant. A few areas, however, received significant December precipitation. Wet (or snowy) regions included the northern High Plains and areas downwind of the Great Lakes. After mid-month, a pair of heavy precipitation events across the interior Southeast eased drought and generally benefited winter grains and cover crops. In advance of bitterly cold conditions, snow cover increased from less than one-quarter to nearly half of the country between December 20 and 25. Most of the gain in snow coverage occurred across the northern half of the United States, providing highly beneficial insulation for Northwestern and Midwestern winter wheat, as well as wheat on the Plains from Nebraska northward. (Earlier in the month, from December 7-9, a rare, early-season snow storm had blanketed the Deep South from southern Texas to the southern Appalachians.) In contrast, winter wheat across the southern half of the Plains-already poorly established and stressed by developing drought-was left exposed. And, as very cold air arrived late in the month, concerns mounted with regard to the health of the Southern Plains' wheat. 2017 Annual Crop Summary April: Temperatures were above normal across most of the United States during the month of April. Monthly average temperatures were generally more than 2°F above normal east of the Great Plains with the Ohio Valley and the majority of the Southeast averaging more than 4°F above normal. The major exception to this trend was the Northwest where April average temperatures were mostly below normal. Precipitation levels were above normal across most of the Nation with notable rainfall totals reported across the northern Pacific Coast, South Central United States, and Mid-Atlantic States for the month. Parts of the lower Mississippi Valley and Washington recorded over 16 inches of precipitation during the month. In the eastern Plains, cold temperatures and measurable snowfall were reported during the last week of April. By April 9, producers had planted 3 percent of the Nation's corn crop, slightly behind the previous year but equal to the 5-year average. Producers had planted 34 percent of the 2017 corn crop by April 30, nine percentage points behind the previous year but equal to the 5-year average. Planting progress was well ahead of historical averages in most of the eastern Corn Belt States. Cotton producers had planted 14 percent of the cotton crop by April 30, slightly behind the previous year and 3 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Producers in Texas, the largest cotton producing State, had planted 13 percent of the crop by the end of the month, 3 percentage points behind the 5-year average. May: Most of the United States recorded below average temperatures for the month of May, with the only major exceptions in parts of the West and Southeast. Portions of the Great Plains and Mississippi Valley recorded average temperatures more than 2°F below normal. Wet weather in early May hampered spring fieldwork across much of the eastern United States. The western half of the Nation was relatively dry throughout the month. In late May, dry conditions prevailed across the West and Corn Belt allowing for more days of fieldwork but adversely impacted some crop conditions in the Northern Plains. By May 14, seventy-one percent of the 2017 corn crop was planted, 2 percentage points behind the previous year but slightly ahead of the 5-year average. Thirty-one percent of the Nation's corn crop had emerged by May 14, ten percentage points behind the previous year and 5 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Nationally, 33 percent of the cotton crop was planted by May 14, five percentage points behind the previous year and 4 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Producers had planted 32 percent of the 2017 sorghum crop by May 14, slightly behind the previous year and 3 percentage points behind the 5-year average. By May 14, seventy-eight percent of the barley crop was seeded, 10 percentage points behind the previous year and slightly behind the 5-year average. By May 28, sixty-seven percent of the Nation's soybean crop was planted, 4 percentage points behind the previous year and slightly behind the 5-year average. Ninety-six percent of the Nation's spring wheat crop was seeded by May 28, 2 percentage points behind the previous year but 5 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. June: Average monthly temperatures were generally above normal across the western United States with areas in the Southwest recording average temperatures more than 4°F above normal in June. From the Delta to the lower Atlantic Coast, average temperatures were lower than normal for the month. Drier than normal weather prevailed in areas west of the Mississippi Valley during the month. Drought levels expanded across the northern Great Plains, deteriorating crop and pasture conditions in Montana, North Dakota, and South Dakota. Elsewhere, areas along the Gulf Coast recorded more than 15 inches of precipitation during the month. In late June, Tropical Storm Cindy and its remnants brought significant delays to fieldwork in Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi. The planting of the 2017 corn crop was mostly complete across the United States by June 4 with 96 percent planted, slightly behind both the previous year and the 5-year average. Over 90 percent of the corn crop was emerged in all estimating States except Pennsylvania by June 18. Eighty-three percent of the Nation's soybean crop was planted by June 4, slightly ahead of the previous year and 4 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Nationally, 58 percent of the soybean crop had emerged by June 4, four percentage points behind the previous year and slightly behind the 5-year average. By June 4, ninety-nine percent of the barley crop was seeded, slightly behind the previous year but 3 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Nationwide, 97 percent of the barley crop had emerged by June 18, slightly behind the previous year but slightly ahead of the 5-year average. Peanut planting advanced to 91 percent complete by June 4, two percentage points ahead of both the previous year and the 5-year average. The Nation's spring wheat was 90 percent emerged by June 4, five percentage points behind the previous year but 5 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Ninety-eight percent of the rice crop had emerged by June 18, two percentage points behind both the previous year and the 5-year average. Nationally, 98 percent of the cotton crop was planted by June 25, equal to the previous year but slightly behind the 5-year average. By June 25, ninety-five percent of the Nation's sorghum was planted, slightly ahead of the previous year and 2 percentage point ahead of the 5-year average. July: Warmer than normal temperatures blanketed the United States during July. Monthly average temperatures of more than 4°F above normal were recorded across the northern Plains and portions of the Pacific Northwest and California.

Ninety-six percent of the spring wheat was at or beyond the heading stage by July 23, three percentage points behind the previous year but 2 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. By July 30, nine percent of the spring wheat was harvested, equal to both the previous year and the 5-year average. Overall, 31 percent of the spring wheat crop was reported in good to excellent condition on July 30, down 6 percentage points from July 2 and 37 percentage points below the same time in 2016. Dry weather led to deteriorating spring wheat conditions in the northern Plains including South Dakota and Montana, rated at 75 percent and 58 percent in the very poor to poor categories, respectively, as of July 30. Durum wheat: Production for 2017 was estimated at 54.9 million bushels, down 47 percent from the 2016 total of 104 million bushels. Area harvested for grain totaled 2.14 million acres, down 9 percent from the previous year. The United States yield was estimated at 25.7 bushels per acre, down 18.3 bushels from the 2016 record high yield. Production in North Dakota, the largest Durum-producing State, was down 50 percent from 2016. Drought conditions in eastern Montana and North Dakota during the 2017 growing season negatively impacted yield and reduced acreage harvested for grain. Harvest progress in these two States, as of September 3, was well ahead of the 5-year average pace due to rapid maturation. Rice: Production in 2017 totaled 178 million cwt, down 20 percent from the 2016 total. Planted area for 2017 was estimated at 2.46 million acres, down 22 percent from 2016.

Harvest of sunflowers began in very late September and progressed mostly behind normal throughout October in the four major States. As of October 29, fifty-three percent of the crop was harvested, 7 percentage points behind the previous year and 1 percentage point behind the 5-year average. By November 26, harvest progress had reached 93 percent complete Nationally, 4 percentage points behind the previous year but equal to the 5-year average. Soybeans: Production in 2017 totaled a record 4.39 billion bushels, up 2 percent from 2016. The average yield per acre was estimated at 49.1 bushels, 2.9 bushels below the record yield in 2016. Planted area for the Nation, at a record 90.1 million acres, was up 8 percent from the 2016 planted acreage. Soybean growers harvested a record 89.5 million acres, up 8 percent from last year. Yields were at record high levels across much of the southern United States from the Delta to the Appalachian Mountains. Record high yields occurred in Alabama, Delaware, Maryland, Mississippi, New Jersey, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. The 2017 soybean objective yield survey data indicated that final average pod counts were higher than last year in the combined eleven objective yield States. Compared with last year, pod counts were up in Arkansas, Missouri, and Ohio. Favorable conditions early in the spring allowed soybean planting to begin in many parts of the Nation by the third week of April. Planting was underway by the start of May in all 18 major soybean-producing States.

With frequent rainfall and extreme heat over the summer, there were many reports of disease and insect pressure in cotton fields; however, farmers were diligent about spraying and kept the negative effects to a minimum. Winds from Hurricanes Harvey and Irma caused some damage to cotton in September, resulting in some yield losses and also delays in harvesting the crop. Drier weather developed toward the end of the growing season, but the crop remained in mostly good to excellent condition allowing harvest to continue on pace. In the Delta region, planting was complete by mid-June. The summer months of June and July brought hot, dry conditions throughout the region which allowed the crop to mature ahead of normal in Arkansas, Louisiana, Tennessee, and Missouri. With the advanced crop, harvest was underway in mid-September in Mississippi and Louisiana. By early October, harvest was in full swing in the region and was complete by late November. Texas growers began the planting season at an above average pace. Early rains were followed by drier conditions and warm temperatures during the growing season, making it ideal for cotton growth in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas. In Texas, the favorable weather conditions in spring and summer, prior to Hurricane Harvey, was beneficial to crop development. In the early part of September, the Upper Coast and South East Texas were still experiencing the lingering effects of Hurricane Harvey with significant rainfall resulting in extensive flooding in many areas. The rest of the State received little to no rain, with the exception of areas in the Edwards Plateau, South Texas, and the Lower Valley. During the latter part of the month, conditions remained in mostly fair to excellent condition. The cotton crop in Kansas and Oklahoma was also rated mostly fair to excellent condition throughout the growing season and with an increase in acres for 2017, record production was estimated for Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas.

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