Small Grains
2004 Summary
September 2004
All wheat production totaled 2.16 billion bushels in 2004, up 2 percent
from the last forecast but 8 percent below 2003. Grain area is
50.2 million acres, down 5 percent from last year. The U.S. yield is
43.1 bushels per acre, down 1.1 bushels from a year ago. Levels of
production and change from last year by type are: winter wheat,
1.50 billion bushels, down 13 percent; other spring wheat, 574 million
bushels, up 8 percent; and Durum wheat, 90.5 million bushels, down
6 percent.
Oat production is estimated at 117 million bushels, 9 percent below the
August 1 forecast and 19 percent below last year's 144 million bushels.
The estimated yield is 64.5 bushels per acre, down 1.5 bushels from
August and down 0.5 bushel from a year ago. Record high yields are
estimated in South Dakota and Washington. Harvested area is 1.81 million
acres, 7 percent below the August 1 forecast and 19 percent below last
year. This is the smallest acreage harvested for grain on record,
continuing a steady downward trend.
Barley production is estimated at 280 million bushels, up 3 percent from
the August 1 forecast and up 1 percent from last year. Average yield per
acre, at a record high 69.5 bushels, is up 3.8 bushels from the last
forecast and 10.6 bushels above 2003. The area harvested for grain is
estimated at 4.03 million acres, down 3 percent from August and
15 percent below a year ago. The increase from the previous production
forecast is mostly due to Montana, where harvested area is up
50,000 acres and the yield increased by 8 bushels per acre. For Idaho,
North Dakota, and Washington, yields increased from August but are more
than offset by decreases in the harvested acreage, resulting in lower
production.

1/ Wheat class estimates are based on the latest varietal acreage survey data
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 2005 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 117 million bushels, 9 percent below
the August 1 forecast and 19 percent below last year's 144 million
bushels. The estimated yield is 64.5 bushels per acre, down 1.5 bushels
from August and down 0.5 bushel from a year ago. Record high yields are
estimated in South Dakota and Washington. Harvested area is 1.81 million
acres, 7 percent below the August 1 forecast and 19 percent below last
year. This is the smallest acreage harvested for grain on record,
continuing a steady downward trend. Compared with last year, area
harvested for grain declined 65,000 acres in Minnesota, 135,000 acres in
North Dakota, and 60,000 acres in South Dakota.
During April, much of the Corn Belt and Great Plains regions experienced
favorable weather conditions and adequate soil moisture, allowing
planting to progress ahead of normal. In the Ohio and upper Mississippi
Valleys, planting continued at a rapid pace through month's end. By
April 25, the major oat-producing States had 61 percent of the acreage
planted compared with 40 percent for the five year average.
The northern Great Plains received frequent showers around mid-May which
provided much-needed moisture for the emerging crop. However, below
normal temperatures slowed crop development slightly. In the Corn Belt,
beneficial rains allowed for adequate growth and development. By the end
of May, 92 percent had emerged compared with 87 percent for the five year
average. During June, cooler weather in the northern Great Plains began
to slow crop development, while in the Corn Belt, lower temperatures did
not have much of an adverse effect on the crop.
During July, fields entered the heading stage and matured at a near
normal pace in all States except Minnesota, where cool weather caused
progress to lag. By August 1, harvest had begun in all States, but was
behind normal due to continued cool weather and areas of thunderstorms.
By the end of the month favorably drier conditions allowed harvest to
advance to near normal levels, except in Minnesota and North Dakota. On
September 5, harvest was 90 percent complete in Minnesota and 79 percent
complete in North Dakota, compared with 97 percent and 87 percent for
their respective five year averages. Elsewhere, harvest was virtually
complete.
Barley: Production is estimated at 280 million bushels, up 3 percent
from the August 1 forecast and up 1 percent from last year's estimate.
Average yield per acre, at 69.5 bushels, is up 3.8 bushels from the last
forecast and 10.6 bushels above 2003. The area harvested for grain is
estimated at 4.03 million acres, 15 percent below a year ago.
Nationally, harvested area is the smallest since 1894 but yield is a new
record high, 7.0 bushels above the previous record of 62.5 bushels set in
1992. Record State yields were set in Colorado, Idaho, Montana,
Nebraska, and South Dakota.
This year's barley crop got an early start in the five major-producing
States, with planting and emergence advancing well ahead of the 5-year
average. However, as below-normal temperatures prevailed across the
northern Great Plains and northern Corn Belt throughout the summer,
development lagged behind the normal pace. On August 29, harvest was
61 percent complete, 29 points behind last year and 14 points behind
normal. With maturity delayed by the cool summer conditions, Minnesota
growers had harvested just 50 percent of their acreage, 37 points behind
normal, while North Dakota producers, with 57 percent of their acreage
harvested, trailed the normal pace by 21 points.
Winter Wheat: The 2004 winter wheat production is estimated at
1.50 billion bushels. This is up nearly 1 percent from the August
forecast but 13 percent below last year's crop. The U.S. yield is
43.5 bushels per acre, up 0.7 bushel from August but 3.2 bushels below
last year's final yield. Acreage for grain is estimated at 34.5 million
acres, 6 percent below 2003. Planted area is 43.4 million acres, down
4 percent from the previous year.
Hard Red Winter (HRW) harvested acreage was down significantly from last
year in the central Great Plains and Montana due to fewer planted acres
and higher than normal abandonment. Dry spring conditions led to lower
yields in all Plains States, except Texas and South Dakota. Timely rains
in South Dakota and Montana resulted in better yields than in 2003.
Yields in Texas rebounded from below average levels last year. Overall,
HRW production totals 856 million bushels, down 20 percent from last
year.
Soft Red Winter (SRW) producing States' yields improved significantly
from poor yields last year in the South and along the Atlantic coast.
Yields declined from very good levels last year in most other States.
Overall, SRW production is down fractionally from 2003 and totals
380 million bushels.
White Winter production, at 263 million bushels, is down 1 percent from
last year. Improved yields more than offset lower acreage in the Pacific
Northwest (Idaho, Oregon, and Washington). Excellent irrigated and
non-irrigated yields in Idaho resulted in a State level yield equal to
the record high set in 2000.
Other Spring Wheat: Production in 2004 is estimated at 574 million
bushels, up 5 percent from the last forecast and up 8 percent from 2003.
Harvested area is 13.3 million acres, 1 percent lower than last year.
The U.S. yield is a record high 43.1 bushels per acre, 3.6 bushels better
than last year and 1.3 bushels higher than the previous record set in
1992.
Dry spring conditions resulted in timely seeding of the crop. Early
planting combined with timely rains resulted in rapid emergence. Crop
development slowed throughout the summer due to cool temperatures and
frequent precipitation, especially in Minnesota, North Dakota, and
Montana. Cool, damp weather continued into August and September,
delaying harvest progress. As of September 26, only 88 percent of the
crop was harvested, 10 points behind the 5-year average.
Yields are better than last year in all States except Minnesota and
Wisconsin, with large increases in most States. Objective yield survey
data showed very high plant populations and weight per head in Minnesota,
North Dakota, and Montana. Timely rains in eastern Idaho resulted in
very good dryland yields.
Durum Wheat: Production for 2004 totaled 90.5 million bushels, up
2 percent from August 1, but 6 percent less than last year. Grain area
harvested totaled 2.45 million acres, 15 percent below a year ago. The
U.S. yield is estimated at 37.0 bushels per acre, up 1.7 bushels from the
last forecast and 3.3 bushels per acre above 2003. North Dakota's Durum
harvest was only 42 percent complete as of September 12, more than
2 weeks behind the 5-year average and 3 weeks behind last year.
