Yield is estimated at 67.8 bushels per acre, up 3.7 bushels from the previous year. Harvested area, at 1.04 million acres, is 3 percent above last year. This is the third lowest acreage harvested for grain on record. Record low acres were harvested in California, Idaho, Kansas, Montana, and Utah. Favorable growing conditions in the Northern Great Plains and the Ohio Valley promoted significant yield increases compared with 2013. Drought conditions in Texas led to a large decline in yield from last year. Record high yields are estimated in Alabama, Idaho, Montana, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Virginia. During early spring, planting and emergence of the oat crop was behind the normal pace. By April 13, producers Nationwide had sown 9 percent of this year's oat crop, 29 percentage points behind last year and 38 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Despite more favorable conditions during the middle of the April, which led to planting progress advancing 22 percentage points in Iowa and 39 percentage points in Nebraska during the week ending April 20, National progress remained well behind normal by the end of April. Forty percent of this year's oat crop was seeded by May 4, sixteen percentage points behind last year and 31 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Planting progress was furthest behind in the upper Midwest, 45 percentage points behind the 5-year average in Minnesota and 41 percentage points behind normal in Wisconsin. Throughout June, crop development remained behind normal in most major oat-producing States. As of June 29, sixty-nine percent of the oat acreage was headed, 4 percentage points behind the 5-year average. By the beginning of August, 40 percent of the oat acreage was harvested, 9 percentage points behind the normal pace. By August 31, eighty percent of the oat acreage was harvested, 13 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Barley: Production is estimated at 180 million bushels, down 17 percent from the revised 2013 total. Average yield per acre, at 73.4 bushels, is up 2.1 bushels from the previous year and represents a record high for the United States. Producers seeded 2.98 million acres in 2014, down 16 percent from last year. Harvested area, at 2.46 million acres, is down 19 percent from 2013. Barley seeding was ahead of normal in Idaho by mid-April, while poor field conditions delayed progress in Minnesota and North Dakota. By May 4, seeding Nationwide had advanced to 46 percent complete, 4 percentage points ahead of last year and 2 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Barley seeding continued to advance ahead of the normal pace in Montana and the Pacific Northwest throughout May. By May 18, thirty-seven percent of the crop had emerged, 3 percentage points ahead of last year but 3 percentage points behind the five-year average. Nationwide, 93 percent of the barley crop was seeded by June 1, eleven percentage points ahead of last year and 4 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. By June 22, a majority of the crop had reached the heading stage in Idaho and Washington, while the crop had just begun heading in Minnesota and North Dakota. Seventeen percent of the Nation's barley crop was at or beyond the heading stage by June 22, slightly ahead of last year and 4 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Overall, 68 percent of the barley crop was reported in good to excellent condition on June 29, equal to the same time in 2013. Harvest had begun in the Pacific Northwest by the middle of the July. By August 3, twelve percent of the barley crop was harvested in Idaho, 34 percent was harvested in Oregon, and 20 percent was harvested in Washington. In the middle of August, rain was increasing the level of disease and mold in many barley fields in Idaho, with barley sprouting in the heads decreasing the quality of the crop. By August 31, fifty-eight percent of the barley crop was harvested, 15 percentage points behind last year and 10 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Barley rated in the good to excellent categories dropped 14 percentage points over the month of August, reported at 52 percent on August 31. By September 14, ninety-one percent of the barley crop was harvested, 4 percentage points behind last year but slightly ahead of the 5-year average. Winter wheat: Winter wheat production for 2014 totaled 1.38 billion bushels, down 11 percent from the revised 2013 total. The United States yield, at 42.6 bushels per acre, is down 4.7 bushels from 2013. Area harvested for grain is estimated at 32.3 million acres, down 1 percent from the previous year. Planted acres were up from 2013 in most of the major Hard Red Winter (HRW) growing States. Particularly large acreage increases occurred in Colorado, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, and North Dakota. Conversely, Oklahoma and Texas had large decreases in planted acres from the previous year. Harvested acres were up across the HRW region, with large increases in Colorado, Kansas, Montana, Nebraska, and the Dakotas. A record high yield is estimated in Nebraska, South Dakota, and Wyoming. Nationally, HRW production totaled 738 million bushels, down 1 percent from 2013. In the Soft Red Winter (SRW) growing area, planted and harvested acreage decreases from 2013 were experienced throughout the region. Record high yields were realized in Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio. SRW production totaled 455 million bushels, down 20 percent from 2013. White winter production totaled 184 million bushels, down 19 percent from the previous year. Harvested acreage in the Pacific Northwest (Idaho, Oregon, and Washington) was below what was harvested in 2013. Yields were also down from last year in all Pacific Northwest States. Other spring wheat: Production for 2014 is estimated at 601 million bushels, up 12 percent from the revised 2013 total. Harvested area totaled 12.8 million acres, up 13 percent from last year. The United States yield is estimated at 46.9 bushels per acre, down slightly from last year. Of the total production, 561 million bushels are Hard Red Spring wheat, up 14 percent from last year. Record high yields are estimated in the Dakotas. By May 4, producers had sown 26 percent of the spring wheat crop, 5 percentage points ahead of last year but 15 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Following the trend of other small grains, planting progress started the month well behind normal but caught up to the 5-year average by the end of the month in most estimating States. Delays in planting progress were most evident in Minnesota and North Dakota, where producers were not able to make significant planting progress until mid-month. Nationally, producers had sown 88 percent of the spring wheat crop by June 1, eight percentage points ahead of last year but equal to the 5-year average. Forty-seven percent of the spring wheat was at or beyond the heading stage by July 6, six percentage points ahead of last year but equal to the 5-year average. Spring wheat progress remained well ahead of normal in the Pacific Northwest but behind the 5-year average pace in the Northern Great Plains. Thirty-eight percent of the spring wheat crop was harvested by August 31, twenty-three percentage points behind last year and 27 percentage points behind the 5-year average. At the end of the month, spring wheat harvest in Minnesota was nearly 3 weeks behind the 5-year average. Durum wheat: Production for 2014 is estimated at 57.1 million bushels, down 2 percent from the revised 2013 total. Grain area harvested totaled 1.37 million acres, up 3 percent from the previous year. The United States yield is estimated at 41.6 bushels per acre, down 1.7 bushels from 2013. Production in North Dakota, the largest Durum-producing State, is up 4 percent from last year. A record high yield is estimated in South Dakota. Due to excessive moisture this season, crop development has progressed significantly behind normal in Montana and North Dakota, the two largest Durum-producing States. As a result, harvest progress in North Dakota and Montana as of August 31 was well behind last year and the 5-year average. Rye: Production for 2014 is estimated at 7.19 million bushels, down 6 percent from the revised 2013 total. Harvested area totaled 258,000 acres, down 20,000 acres from 2013. The United States yield, at 27.9 bushels per acre, is up 0.5 bushel from the previous year. Drier weather conditions in the Southern Great Plains and the Southeast led to decreases in harvested acres from a year earlier. Statistical Methodology Survey procedures: Objective yield and farm operator surveys were conducted to gather information on small grain acreage, yield, and production. The objective yield survey was conducted in 10 States that accounted for over 60 percent of the 2014 winter wheat production. Early in the growing season, farm operators were interviewed to seek permission to randomly locate two sample plots in selected winter wheat fields. Throughout the growing season, counts such as number of stalks, heads in late boot, and number of emerged heads were collected from these plots. The plots were revisited each month until crop maturity when the heads were clipped, threshed, and weighed. After the farm operator harvested the sample field, enumerators revisited the sample to obtain harvesting loss. The farm operator survey was conducted primarily by telephone with some use of mail, internet, and personal interviewer. Approximately 66,000 producers were interviewed between August 24 and September 16 and asked questions pertaining to planted and harvested area as well as yield and production. Estimating Procedures: National and State level objective yield and grower reported data were reviewed for reasonableness and consistency with historical estimates. The survey data were also reviewed considering weather patterns and crop progress compared 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 in the Crop Production Annual Summary report published in January should new information become available. Previous year acreage, yield, and production estimates can be revised in the Small Grain Summary published 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 are subject to sampling variability because all acres of winter wheat are not included in the sample. The farm operator survey indications are also subject to sampling variability because all operations with small grains are not included in the sample. This variability, as measured by the relative standard error at the National level, is approximately 1.4 percent for winter wheat, 4.7 percent for Durum wheat, and 2.9 percent for other spring wheat. This means that chances are approximately 95 out of 100 that survey estimates for production will be within plus or minus 2.8 percent for winter wheat, 9.4 percent for Durum wheat, and 5.8 percent for other spring wheat of the value that could be developed by averaging the estimates produced from all possible samples selected from the same population and surveyed using the same procedures. The relative standard errors for barley, oats and rye are 3.3, 3.8, and 8.7 percent, respectively. 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.
