1 United States Department of Agriculture National Agricultural Statistics Service Agricultural Handbook Number 628 Usual Planting and Harvesting Dates for U.S. Field s

2 Introduction Usual planting and harvesting dates for major field crops appear in this report. Information is arranged by States for major crops and by commodity for selected States. In addition, dot maps show major areas of production. The information was assembled by the National Agricultural Statistics Service, based on the best and latest information available. The same data for vegetables may be found in Commercial Vegetables for Fresh Market and Processing in Principal Producing Areas, Agriculture Handbook No. 507, issued February The dates shown indicate the periods in which the crops are planted and harvested in most years. They do not account for exceptionally early or late dates of scattered planting and harvesting, nor abnormal seasons caused by climatic or economic conditions. Beginning dates indicate when planting or harvesting is about 5 percent complete and ending dates when operations are about 95 percent complete. The usual planting dates are the times when crops are usually planted in the fields. For transplanted crops, such as tobacco, the planting period refers to the time of setting plants in the field. The harvest dates refer to the periods during which harvest of the crop actually occurs. They do not extend through the subsequent period in which some commodities are stored in the field after harvest.

3 Barley Nearly 7 million acres of barley were harvested in the United States (U.S.) during. After reaching a peak of over 16 million acres in 1942, harvested acreage has declined to the same level as was harvested during the first decade of this century. Yields, however, have been steadily increasing, with a record high average yield of 62.5 bushels per acre recorded in North Dakota continued to be the largest barley-producing State, harvesting 27 percent (%) of the total U.S. production. North Dakota, along with Idaho and Montana--the second and third ranking States--accounted for nearly two-thirds of the barley production. Only minor acreages are grown in the Eastern and Southern States. Most barley is fed to livestock, the remainder of the crop is used for malting.

5 Corn Corn was the leading U.S. crop in, both in terms of value of production and acreage grown. Over 73 million acres of corn were harvested for grain. The acreage for grain comprised 92% of all corn planted. More than 80% of the corn-for-grain acreage lies in the Corn Belt States, with Iowa leading all States and Illinois ranking second. The largest acreage of record, 111 million acres, was harvested in Acreage decreased from the turn of the century, with the exception of wartime plantings, until the late-1960's. Since then, harvested acreage levels have generally ranged between million acres. The National grain yield was bushels per acre the third highest yield on record. Yields have generally increased since the turn of the century, with more rapid increases occurring in more recent years. The highest corn yield on record, bushels per acre, occurred in Corn grain production generally increased through the late-1980's. Erratic weather caused production to fluctuate significantly in the 1990's. In, 9.3 billion bushels of corn were produced in the Nation, compared with 7.4 billion bushels in 1995 and the record 10.1 billion bushels in 1994.

7 Cotton Cotton is grown in the southern United States, mostly south of the 36th parallel, with concentrations in the Texas high plains, the irrigated valleys of Arizona and California, and the Mississippi Delta. In recent years, Georgia and North Carolina have experienced large increases in cotton acreage. Unlike in the tropics where cotton is grown as a perennial, U. S. cotton is grown as an annual from seed planted each year. Most U. S. cotton is Upland cotton, which usually has a staple length of 1 to 1 1/4 inches. Some extra-long staple American Pima cotton, which has a staple length of 1 1/2 inches or longer, is grown in California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. Cotton acreage increased until 1925, when nearly 46 million acres were planted, then generally declined until the 1960's. Since then, acreage has ranged between 9 and 15 million acres. In recent years, acreage has been on an upswing with growers planting 15 million acres in. Cotton yields have trended upward with a record high yield of 709 pounds per acre of cotton harvested in. With the increases in yield, cotton production has reached the same levels that were produced in the 1920's and 1930's when acreage was at its peak. A record cotton production was set in 1994, surpassing the previous highest producing years of 1937 and 1926.

9 Alfalfa Hay Alfalfa hay, which includes alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures, comprised 40% of the total acreage harvested for hay in. Alfalfa is common in all regions except the Southeast, where the humid climate and sandy soils do not favor production. In most areas, the crop is harvested two or three times a year. There were over 24 million acres of alfalfa hay harvested in the United States during. California was the leading alfalfa hay producing State, harvesting 6.6 million tons from 940,000 acres in. However, California does not publish county estimates for hay and are not represented on the maps below. The alfalfa hay yield of 3.27 tons per acre was down from the record yield of 3.45 tons per acre set in Alfalfa hay production increased steadily until the 1980's, when record production of nearly 92 million tons was set in Production has since declined slightly. Growers harvested over 79 million tons in. Other Hay In those States which estimate Alfalfa hay, Other hay includes all crops harvested for hay except alfalfa and alfalfa mixtures. Other hay includes alfalfa in Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, and South Carolina. s grown for hay include clover-timothy mixtures, bermuda grass, wild grasses (prairie hay), and small grains among others. There were nearly 37 million acres of Other hay harvested in. Texas, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Kansas lead the Nation in Other hay production during.

13 Oats Production and acreage of oats have declined steadily since 1945 when a record of 1.5 billion bushels were produced on 42 million acres. In, only 155 million bushels were harvested from 2.7 million acres. This was the lowest production and acreage since records were first kept in Over half of the grain crop is grown in South Dakota, North Dakota, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Iowa. The crop is grown less extensively throughout the Corn Belt, Great Lakes States, and the Plains. Relatively few oats are produced in the Southern and Western States. About half of the planted acreage is harvested for grain and the other half is harvested for hay.

15 Peanuts Peanut production is confined mostly to the South. There are three main producing areas: the Virginia-Carolina area, where Virginia type peanuts predominate; the Southeast where the crop is mainly Runners and Virginia types; and the Southwest, where the acreage is planted to Runner and Spanish types of peanuts. Valencias, a roasting type, account for about 1 percent of U.S. production and are grown mainly in New Mexico and Texas. The leading producing peanut States in were Georgia, Texas, Alabama, and North Carolina. A total of 1.4 million acres of peanuts were planted in. Planted acreage peaked at over 5 million acres during World War II, but then fell below 2 million acres in Farmers have planted between million since the early 1950's. Yields and production improved steadily from the 1950's until 1980, but have leveled off since. In, yield averaged 2,619 pounds per acre.

17 Rice U.S. rice production is mainly confined to three areas: the coastal prairie region of the southwestern Louisiana and southeastern Texas; eastern Arkansas, southeastern Missouri, and northwestern Mississippi; and the central valleys of California (particularly the Sacramento Valley). The rice acreage covered just over 2.8 million acres. Rice plantings have steadily increased since the late 1800's. The peak planting year came in 1981 when over 3.8 million acres were planted. Yield and production have also steadily increased during this century. In, a record 6,121 pounds of rice were harvested per acre, for a total production of over 171 million cwt. The record production, of 198 million cwt, occurred in 1994.

19 Rye Rye was planted on 1.5 million acres in, the lowest acreage on record since Acreage, except for peaking during the two World Wars, has gradually declined during the past 100 years. A large portion of the rye acreage is used as a winter cover crop, pastured, and then plowed under as green manure. Only 24% of plantings were harvested for grain. Rye intended for grain is usually planted in the fall and harvested during the late spring or early summer months. Most rye is produced in the northern Plains and southern Plains. With the exception of Georgia, only minor acreages of rye are grown in the East and South.

21 Sorghum Most grain sorghum is grown in the central and southern Plains States, where it is well adopted to heat and tolerant to limited moisture conditions. Of the 11.9 million acres of sorghum harvested for grain in, 79% was grown in Kansas, Texas, and Nebraska. Grain sorghum is used primarily as a livestock feed. Planted area generally ranged between 15 and 20 million acres until the late 1980's, when acreage dropped to the 10 to 15 million range. The majority of the sorghum acreage not harvested for grain, is harvested for silage. Sorghum grain yields increased steadily from the late 1950's until Erratic weather in the 1990's has caused wide yield changes from year to year. The yield, of 67.5 bushels per acre, compares with 55.6 bushels per acre in 1995 and 72.8 bushels per acre in 1994.

23 are grown primarily for beans which are processed into oil and meal. The main soybean producing area is in the Corn Belt and the lower Mississippi Valley. The three top producing States in - Iowa, Illinois, and Minnesota - accounted for 44% of the total U.S. production. Over 64 million acres of soybeans were planted in. Planted area increased rapidly until 1979, when a record 71.4 million acres were planted. Acreage declined during the 1980's, but has rebounded in the 1990's. The yield, of 37.6 bushels per acre, was the second highest yield since records were first kept in The record yield, of 41.4 bushels per acre, was set in 1994.

25 Sugarbeets Almost all U.S. sugarbeets are grown under irrigation in the western half of the country and in the more humid areas of the North Central States. Sugarbeets require plentiful, well-distributed moisture and extended moderately cool weather during the growing season. In, Minnesota lead the U.S. in sugarbeet production, followed by Idaho and North Dakota. Most beets are seeded from March to May and harvested from September to December, with peak harvest in October. However, in California, some beets are over-wintered and harvested the next spring. Growers planted a record 1.6 million acres in Acreage declined during the 1970's and early 1980's, but climbed back up to around 1.4 million acres by 1990, where it has stayed. Just over 1.3 million acres of sugarbeets were planted in. Sugarbeets yielded 20.2 tons per acres in, down from the record yield of 22.1 tons per acre in 1994.

27 Tobacco U.S. tobacco production is generally confined to areas east of the Mississippi River, with the principal exception being the western area of Missouri. Six major classes are grown: Flue-cured, fire-cured, air-cured (light and dark), cigar filler, cigar binder, and cigar wrapper. Although grown at various latitudes, the crop has little tolerance to frost and freezing temperatures. Tobacco seeds are usually sown during the late winter and early spring in protected beds from which seedlings are pulled and transplanted in the spring. Harvest dates are governed largely by latitude, elevation, seasonal conditions, and the nature of the particular tobacco type. The flue-cured and cigar wrapper types are harvested by priming (picking the leaves as they ripen) while other types are usually stalk cut. In, North Carolina and Kentucky accounted for 65% of the total U.S. production. area increased from 1866, when records were first kept, until 1930 when the peak level of over 2 million acres were harvested. Acreage leveled off until the 1950's, but has decreased steadily since. Tobacco growers harvested 1.6 billion pounds of tobacco from 733,920 acres in. Production generally increased steadily from , but has generally decreased since.

29 Spring Wheat The spring wheat harvest, including both durum and other spring wheat, accounted for 35% of all wheat produced in the United States. Spring wheat is planted in the late spring and harvested late in the summer. Annual rainfall in the northern Great Plains and Northwestern States is relatively limited but well distributed during the summer, thus favoring spring wheat production. Nationwide, 116 million bushels of Durum and 692 million bushels of other spring wheat were grown in. North Dakota growers produced over 79 million bushels of durum and over 313 million bushels of other spring wheat in, making it the top producing State for all classes of wheat. Winter Wheat Winter wheat, widely grown throughout the United States, is heavily concentrated in the central and southern Great Plains and the Pacific Northwest. Winter wheat is planted in the fall, goes into dormancy during the winter, and is harvested for grain the following spring. When weather conditions are favorable for early fall growth, much of the winter wheat in the southern Great Plains is grazed in the fall prior to going into dormancy and again in the late winter and early spring when new growth starts. Nearly 52 million acres of winter wheat were planted in. With the exception of peak acreages during World War II and the early 1980's, planted area has generally ranged between 40 and 50 million acres since the 1920's. Nearly 1.5 billion bushels of winter wheat were produced in, comprising 65% of all wheat produced. Kansas, Washington, and Oklahoma were the 3 top producing winter wheat States and accounted for 35% of the total winter wheat production. Kansas ranked second, behind only North Dakota, in all classes of wheat production.
