Small Grains
2003 Summary
September 2003
All wheat production totaled 2.34 billion bushels in 2003, up 2 percent
from the last forecast and 44 percent above 2002. Grain area is
52.8 million acres, up 15 percent from last year. The U.S. yield is
44.2 bushels per acre, up 8.9 bushels from a year ago. Levels of
production and change from last year by type are: winter wheat,
1.71 billion bushels, up 49 percent; other spring wheat, 533 million
bushels, up 35 percent; and Durum wheat, 96.6 million bushels, up
22 percent.
Oat production is estimated at 145 million bushels, 4 percent below the
August 1 forecast but 22 percent above last year's 119 million bushels.
The estimated yield is 65.0 bushels per acre, nearly the same as the
August 1 forecast and up 8.3 bushels from a year ago. Record high yields
are estimated in Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Missouri, Nebraska,
and South Dakota. Harvested area is 2.22 million acres, 5 percent below
the August 1 forecast but 6 percent above last year. Compared with the
August 1 estimate, area harvested for grain declined 20,000 acres each in
Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, and Wisconsin.
Barley production is estimated at 276 million bushels, down 2 percent
from the last forecast but up 22 percent from last year. Average yield
per acre, at 58.9 bushels, is up 1.4 bushels from the last forecast and
4.0 bushels above 2002. The area harvested for grain is estimated at
4.69 million acres, down 4 percent from August but 14 percent above a
year ago. The harvested area is down from August due mostly to hot dry
weather in Montana where farmers were diverting some barley from grain to
hay.

available.
Wheat: Class Percentage Estimates
The following percentages are the basis for the U.S. wheat production by
class estimates each year. These estimates are based on the latest
varietal or class survey data available. These end-of-season percentages
will be used during the 2004 forecast season. However, if an unusual
situation significantly distorts a State's usual distribution, then
updated percentages will be used to forecast the production by class.
(Note: the Idaho, Oregon, and Washington percentages are based on their
estimates of production by class).

Oats: Production is estimated at 145 million bushels, 4 percent below
the August 1 forecast but 22 percent above last year's 119 million
bushels. The estimated yield is 65.0 bushels per acre, nearly the same
as the August 1 forecast and up 8.3 bushels from a year ago. Record high
yields are estimated in Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Missouri,
Nebraska, and South Dakota. Harvested area is 2.22 million acres,
5 percent below the August 1 forecast but 6 percent above last year.
Compared with the August 1 estimate, area harvested for grain declined
20,000 acres each in Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, and
Wisconsin.
Wet conditions delayed planting during early April in the Corn Belt and
Ohio Valley. During mid-April, wet conditions continued in the Ohio
Valley, while dryer conditions allowed planting to progress in the Corn
Belt. At the end of the month, planting continued at a rapid pace in the
Corn Belt and gained momentum in the Ohio and Upper Mississippi Valleys.
In early May, a series of thunderstorms in the Plains, Midwest, and East
enhanced soil moisture for the emerging crop, while delaying planting of
the late crop in the Ohio Valley. By mid-May, planting was nearing
completion in all States except North Dakota, Pennsylvania, and
Wisconsin, where planting progressed behind the 5-year average. Below
normal temperatures during early June, hindered vegetative growth along
the Atlantic Coast.
In July, fields entered the heading stage and matured ahead of normal in
all States except Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. By July 21, the oat crop
was 97 percent headed, 2 percent below the average for this date.
Harvest began around mid-July in all areas except Minnesota, North
Dakota, and Wisconsin. Progress was slow during the remainder of the
month, with the northern Corn Belts slightly behind average and harvest
of the late crop in the Ohio Valley well behind average by months end.
Harvest continued in August with few delays. By the end of the month,
harvest in all States except Pennsylvania advanced to near normal levels.
On September 2, harvest was 97 percent complete, slightly ahead of the
5-year average of 94 percent.
Barley: Production is estimated at 276 million bushels, down 2 percent
from the last forecast but up 22 percent from last year's estimate.
Average yield per acre, at 58.9 bushels, is up 1.4 bushels from the last
forecast and 4.0 bushels above 2002. The area harvested for grain is
estimated at 4.69 million acres, 14 percent above a year ago. The
increase in production over last year was due to both an increase in
harvested area, especially in North Dakota which increased by 740,000
acres, and generally favorable weather across the northern Great Plains
and other western barley areas. Arizona, Kansas, and Wyoming achieved
record high yields and Minnesota tied its record high yield.
This year's barley crop got an early start in the northern Great Plains
as farmers took advantage of favorable weather. By April 27, planting in
the five major barley-producing States was 41 percent complete, 10 points
ahead of the 5-year average, and emergence, at 12 percent, was 2 points
ahead of the average. Barley was reported 98 percent planted and
87 percent emerged by June 1, three and 6 points ahead of the 5-year
average, respectively. Wet, cool conditions hampered planting in the
Atlantic Coast barley regions from North Carolina to Maine.
Barley developed rapidly in the northern Great Plains as the favorable
weather continued. By July 6, the barley crop in the major producing
States was 65 percent headed, 11 points ahead of the average. Despite
early concerns about the availability of irrigation water in the northern
Rockies, supplies remained adequate. On July 27, heading was 100 percent
complete in Washington and Idaho, and virtually complete elsewhere. In
the five reporting States, barley was rated 59 percent good to excellent.
In Minnesota and North Dakota, crop condition was rated 85 and 80 percent
good to excellent, respectively. However, in Montana, unusually hot
weather in July and August led some farmers to cut their barley for hay.
Excessive rain, with cool temperatures continued to hinder crop
development in the Mid-Atlantic States where Maryland and Delaware barley
experienced high mortality from standing water and cold soils.
Barley harvest advanced to 92 percent complete by August 31, well ahead
of the normal pace of 77 percent. Warm temperatures in the Great Plains
promoted ripening. The harvest in both Minnesota and Washington were
99 percent complete, compared to the average of 89 and 83 percent,
respectively. Harvest in the Mid-Atlantic States extended through the
end of July, far behind normal due to the continued wet conditions.
Winter Wheat: The 2003 winter wheat production is estimated at
1.71 billion bushels. This is down less than 1 percent from the August
forecast but 49 percent above last year's drought reduced crop. The U.S.
yield decreased 0.2 bushel from August to 46.7 bushels per acre. This is
8.2 bushels above last year's final yield, and the third highest yield on
record. Acreage for grain is estimated at 36.5 million acres, up
slightly from the last forecast and 23 percent above 2002. Planted area
is 44.9 million acres, up 1 percent from the last forecast.
Hard Red Winter (HRW) yields rebounded from last year's drought stressed
levels, except in Texas where conditions were dry again this year.
Excellent spring weather during the grain filling stage of development
led to very good yields, with record high levels noted in Oklahoma, Iowa,
and North Dakota. Overall, HRW production totals 1.06 billion bushels,
up 74 percent from last year.
Soft Red Winter (SRW) producing States' yields were better than a year
ago, except in the central and northern Atlantic Coast States where
excessive moisture led to disease problems. The largest gains were noted
in the Corn Belt, where ample spring precipitation was received.
Overall, SRW production is up 14 percent from 2002 and totals 379 million
bushels.
White Winter production, at 265 million bushels, is up 32 percent from
last year. Yields improved significantly from last year in Oregon and
Washington, and slightly in Idaho. Increased acreage planted to Hard
White Winter varieties in Colorado, Kansas, and Nebraska also contributed
to the increase in White Winter production.
Other Spring Wheat: Production in 2003 is estimated at 533 million
bushels, up 8 percent from the last forecast and 35 percent above 2002.
Harvested area is 13.4 million acres, slightly lower than the August
forecast and last year. The U.S. yield is 39.7 bushels per acre,
3.1 bushels higher than the last forecast and 10.4 bushels better than
last year's drought reduced crop.
Harvest progressed well ahead of average due to warm, dry weather during
August and early September. Most States recorded higher yields than last
year, with very large increases in the Dakotas, Minnesota, and Wisconsin.
In Idaho, increases from last year in irrigat
