July Weather Summary Record-shattering July heat from the Desert Southwest to Florida contrasted with slightly below-normal temperatures across the northern Plains and upper Midwest. Monthly temperatures averaged more than 5°F above normal in some Southwestern communities. Phoenix, Arizona, became the first major American city to record a monthly average temperature above 100°F while enduring 31 consecutive days (from June 30 to July 30) with 110-degree heat. Southwestern heat was aggravated by a weak and erratic monsoon circulation. Some of the most significant agricultural impacts related to the extreme heat affected the southern Plains and the western Gulf Coast region, with one-half of the cotton in Texas rated in very poor to poor condition by July 30. Rangeland and pastures in Texas were rated 58 percent very poor to poor on that date. Nationally, topsoil moisture was rated 49 percent very short to short by July 30, led by Washington (84 percent), Texas (83 percent), Missouri (75 percent), Oregon (73 percent), and New Mexico (72 percent). According to the Drought Monitor, drought coverage stood at 28 percent of the Lower 48 States on August 1, up from 27 percent near the end of June and a 3-year minimum of 19 percent on May 30. However, July improvement from the central Plains into the Northeast contrasted with worsening conditions in several areas, including portions of Texas, the Four Corners States, the western Gulf Coast region, and across the Nation's northern tier as far east as the upper Great Lakes region. On August 1, extreme to exceptional drought covered 29 percent of Kansas, 19 percent of Missouri, 16 percent of Nebraska, 12 percent of Wisconsin, and 2 to 5 percent of Iowa, Minnesota, Oklahoma, and Texas. The Nation's corn crop-rated just 50 percent good to excellent on June 25 due to spring and early-summer drought-experienced a rare, mid-summer rebound to 57 percent in those two categories by July 23. Soybeans rated good to excellent jumped from 50 to 55 percent between July 2 and 16. Late in the month, however, heat surging across the Plains and Midwest briefly increased stress on summer crops that had been benefiting from several weeks of relatively cool, showery weather. The Midwest-and many other areas of the country-continued to note sporadic smoke and haze related to rampant Canadian wildfires, which during the first 7 months of 2023 scorched some 32 million acres of vegetation, mostly boreal forest. The previous modern annual Canadian record had been just over 17.5 million burned acres in 1995. Interestingly, wildfires in the United States charred only 1.2 million acres from January-July 2023, less than one-third of the 10-year average of nearly 3.8 million acres. Despite a late-July uptick in wildfire activity across the western United States, overall acreage remained relatively low partly due to the bounteous 2022-23 winter wet season, which kept potentially vulnerable hillsides moist or covered by snow until late into the spring. During July, notably wet areas included the Northeast, portions of the lower Great Lakes region, and the Nation's heartland, especially from southwestern Kansas into central Oklahoma. A Northeastern deluge peaked on July 9-10, with some locations from Pennsylvania to Vermont receiving more than 5 inches of rain. In Vermont, subsequent crests on Otter Creek at Center Rutland and Williams River near Rockingham were second only to the Hurricane Irene- induced high-water marks of August 28-29, 2011. Additional rain later in the month pushed a few Northeastern locations, including Albany, New York, to their wettest July on record. On July 30, topsoil moisture was rated 50 to 100 percent surplus in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Vermont. Beneficial Midwestern rainfall was less widespread from the Mississippi Valley westward, leaving pockets of unfavorable dryness. On July 30, Missouri led the Nation with rangeland and pastures rated 71 percent very poor to poor, compared with the national value of 29 percent. Among major reporting states, Missouri also led the country in corn and soybeans rated very poor to poor-44 and 34 percent, respectively. On the same date, pastures were 44 percent very poor to poor in Minnesota and 41 percent in Illinois. Farther west, much of the Nation's spring wheat belt experienced drier-than-normal weather late in the growing season. By July 30, only 42 percent of the spring wheat was rated in good to excellent condition, down from 51 percent just 2 weeks earlier and a season-opening peak of 64 percent on June 4. July Agricultural Summary July was warmer than average for much of the Nation. Parts of Louisiana, Maine, Oregon, the Southwest, Texas, and Utah recorded temperatures 4°F or more above normal for the month. In contrast, much of the upper Midwest, and Great Plains, as well as parts of the Rockies, were cooler than average. Locations in the Great Basin and Northern Plains recorded temperatures 4°F or more below normal. Much of the southern Delta, upper Midwest, Southwest, and West remained drier than normal for the month. In contrast, parts of the Great Lakes, Mississippi Valley, Northeast, and Great Plains, as well as locations in the Mid-Atlantic, Rockies, and Southwest, recorded at least twice the normal amount of precipitation. Heavy rainfall in the Northeast led to catastrophic flooding in parts of New York and New England. Locations in Connecticut, Massachusetts, and Vermont recorded 12 inches or more of rain for the month.

Nineteen percent of the acreage was planted by April 30, twelve percentage points ahead of last year and 8 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Eighty-three percent of soybean acreage was planted by May 28, nineteen percentage points ahead of last year and 18 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Nationally, 86 percent of soybean acreage was emerged by June 11, eighteen percentage points ahead of last year and 16 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Soybean emergence was ahead of the 5-year average in all 18 of the major soybean-producing States. By July 2, twenty-four percent of soybean acreage was blooming, 9 percentage points ahead of last year and 4 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Thirty-nine percent of soybean acreage was blooming by July 9, nine percentage points ahead of last year and 4 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. By July 9, ten percent of soybean acreage was setting pods, 4 percentage points ahead of last year and 3 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Twenty percent of soybean acreage was setting pods by July 16, seven percentage points ahead of last year and 3 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. By July 23, seventy percent of soybean acreage was blooming, 8 percentage points ahead of last year and 4 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Fifty percent of soybean acreage was setting pods as of July 30, nine percentage points ahead of last year and 3 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. As of July 30, fifty-two percent of soybean acreage was rated in good to excellent condition compared with 60 percent at the same time last year. Soybean acreage was rated in worse condition this year than last year in 10 of the 18 major soybean-producing States, with Illinois, Missouri, and Wisconsin declining more than 20 percentage points compared to last year. If realized, the forecasted yield will be a record high in Arkansas, Indiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, Ohio, and South Carolina. Peanuts: Production is forecast at 6.22 million pounds in 2023, up 12 percent from 2022. Area harvested is expected to total 1.54 million acres, unchanged from the Acreage report but up 11 percent from last year. Based on conditions as of August 1, the average yield for the United States is forecast at 4,047 pounds per acre, up 1 percent from 2022. A record high yield is forecast for Virginia. As of July 30, eighty-eight percent of the Nation's peanut crop had reached the pegging stage, equal to the previous year but 1 percentage point ahead of the 5-year average. Seventy-five percent of the peanut acreage was rated in good to excellent condition, 3 percentage points above the previous week and 4 points above the same time last year. Cotton: Upland cotton production is forecast at 13.7 million 480-pound bales down 2 percent from the previous year. Upland harvested area for the Nation is expected to total 8.52 million acres, up 19 percent from last year. Pima cotton production is forecast at 268,000 acres, down 43 percent from 2022. Expected Pima cotton harvested area is estimated at 105,800 acres, down 40 percent from last year. As of July 30, eighty-six percent of the Nation's cotton acreage had reached the squaring stage, two percentage points behind last year and 1 percentage point behind the 5-year average. By July 30, forty-seven percent of the Nation's cotton acreage had begun setting bolls, 10 percentage points behind last year and 3 percentage points behind the 5-year average.

In Texas, cotton setting bolls reached 35 percent, down 15 percentage points from the previous year and 6 percentage points from the 5-year average. Texas cotton producers are reporting that heat and drought continue to decline cotton conditions in the Blacklands and the Lower Valley. In Georgia, cotton fields began to near completion on squaring and continued to set bolls. As of July 30, seventeen percent of the cotton acreage in Texas and seventy-one percent of the cotton acreage in Georgia was rated in good to excellent condition. Dry beans: Production of dry edible beans is forecast at 22.7 million cwt, down 12 percent from 2022. Area planted is estimated at 1.24 million acres, up 2 percent from the Acreage report but down 1 percent from 2022. Area harvested is forecast at 1.19 million acres, up 2 percent from the Acreage report but down 2 percent from 2022. The yield is forecast at 1,899 pounds per acre, a decrease of 214 pounds from last season. Sugarbeets: Production of sugarbeets for the 2023 crop year is forecast at 34.4 million tons, up 5 percent from 2022. Producers expect to harvest 1.11 million acres, down 2 percent from the last year. Yield is forecast at 30.9 tons per acre, up 2.3 tons from last year. Sugarcane: Production of sugarcane for sugar and seed is forecast at 34.9 million tons, up 1 percent from last season. Producers intend to harvest 927,000 acres for sugar and seed during the 2023 crop year, down slightly from 2022. Yields for sugar and seed are expected to average 37.7 tons per acre, up 0.4 ton from 2022. Tobacco: The 2023 United States all tobacco production is forecast at 444 million pounds, down 1 percent from 2022. Area harvested, at 196,890 acres, is up 2 percent from the Acreage report but down 2 percent from last year.

Area harvested is forecast at 55,030 acres, down 8 percent from 2022. Yield is forecast at 1,886 pounds per acre, 192 pounds higher than the 2022 yield. Apples, commercial: United States apple total production for the 2023 crop year is forecast at 9.91 billion pounds, up 1 percent from the previous year. In Washington, the largest growing State, weather conditions improved significantly from the previous year. Better growing conditions are leading to an expected 9 percent increase in production from the previous year. In New York, a mild winter that weakened the cold hardiness of the apple crop followed by a very warm spring has caused the expected production to be the lowest since 2012. In Michigan, there were no widespread spring frost damage events, and July precipitation enhanced fruit sizing. Early season variety harvesting has begun in southern Michigan. Cranberries: United States cranberry total production for the 2023 season is forecast at 7.62 million barrels, down 5 percent from the 2022 crop year. In Wisconsin, the largest growing State, production is forecast at 4.60 million barrels, down 5 percent from last year. Production in Massachusetts, forecast at 2.00 million barrels, is down 12 percent from last year. Cranberry growers experienced cold temperatures, with below-normal precipitation and above-normal snowfall during the winter months. In Wisconsin and Massachusetts, the winter freeze and early snow impacted plant dormancy and froze out buds. In the spring and early summer months, numerous frosts and hailstorms occurred during the growing season. Growers in some areas reported severe frost damage, resulting in reduced crop growth and yield loss. In Oregon, the crop faced threats from the intensive heat and extreme weather in late June and mid to late July, and growers are concerned about fruit size. With good management practices, cranberry growers expect a good to average season despite the challenging weather during the bloom period. Grapes: United States grape production for 2023 is forecast at 6.29 million tons, up 6 percent from last year. In California, the largest growing State, wine type grape production is forecast at 3.80 million tons, up 12 percent from last season, and represents 64 percent of California's total grape crop. California's raisin type grape production is forecast at 970,000 tons, down 4 percent from last year, and represents 16 percent of California's total grape crop. California's table type grape production is forecast at 1.15 million tons, up 3 percent from last year and represents the remaining 20 percent of California's total grape crop. A cool, wet spring this year delayed the grape crops along the coast and in the Sierra Foothills by a couple of weeks. Growers across the state struggled with high production costs. Table grape harvest in the Coachella Valley is going well, with low pest and disease pressure. Peaches: United States peach total production for the 2023 season is forecast at 543,000 tons, down 13 percent from 2022. In California, the largest growing State, production is forecast at 445,000 tons, down 7 percent from the previous forecast and down 6 percent from 2022. California Freestone production is forecast at 260,000 tons, down 4 percent from the previous forecast and down 2 percent from 2022. Significant rain and cooler temperatures delayed and extended the bloom period. Harvest of peaches is ongoing. California Clingstone production is forecast at 185,000 tons, down 12 percent from the previous forecast and down 11 percent from 2022. Full bloom occurred on March 14, eight days later than last year. All regions of the state reported the highest number of chilling hours in the past ten years. Growers are expecting to thin the crop a week and a half later than last year. South Carolina production is forecast at 23,000 tons, down 66 percent from last year. Peach production was impacted by two freeze events in March. In addition, due to the freeze events, brown rot and other bacterial diseases were problematic due to the freezing temperatures, which impacted spraying schedules. Georgia production is forecast at 5,500 tons, down 78 percent from last year. Peach blossoms and advanced fruit development were impacted in March by two freeze events. Pears: United States pear total production for 2023 is forecast at 645,000 tons, up slightly from last year. In Washington and Oregon, the two largest pear producing States, the bloom season was delayed by cold weather. Then, the warm weather occurred rapidly, causing trees to bloom all at once. The usual pattern is the warmer areas will bloom first. Weeks later, higher- elevation and cooler areas will bloom. The 2023 crop saw this pattern disrupted. Further, warm weather, open blossoms, and rain, caused growers to become concerned about fire blight, which is a disease that is caused by bacteria infection. Overall, harvest is expected to be delayed this year with the prospect of having an average crop. In California, despite the concern by some producers about phytophthora, also known as water molds, production is expected to be the highest since 2017. The excess moisture seemed to have had a positive impact on this year's crop. Statistical Methodology Survey procedures: Objective yield and farm operator surveys were conducted between July 24 and August 7 to gather information on expected yields as of August 1. The objective yield survey for winter wheat was conducted in 10 States that account for 64 percent of the 2022 winter wheat production. The objective yield survey for cotton was only conducted in the southern portions of Texas. Farm operators selected for the objective yield survey were interviewed to update previously reported acreage data and seek permission to randomly locate two sample plots in selected fields for the objective yield survey. The counts made within each sample plot depend on the crop and the maturity of that crop. In all cases, the number of plants is recorded along with other measurements that provide information to forecast the number heads or bolls and their weight. The counts are used with similar data from previous years to develop a projected biological yield. The average harvesting loss is subtracted to obtain a net yield. The plots are revisited each month until crop maturity when the fruit are harvested and weighed. After the farm operator has harvested the sample field, another plot is sampled to obtain current year harvesting loss. Starting in 2019, NASS eliminated the August objective yield survey for cotton (except Texas), corn, and soybeans. The first objective yield survey conducted for these crops will begin in September. The farm operator survey was conducted primarily by telephone with some use of mail, internet, and personal interviews. Approximately 14,700 producers were interviewed during the survey period and asked questions about probable yield. These growers will continue to be surveyed throughout the growing season to provide indications of average yields. 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 months and previous years. Each Regional Field Office submits their analysis of the current situation to the Agricultural Statistics Board (ASB). The ASB uses the survey data and the State analyses to prepare the published August 1 forecasts. Revision policy: The August 1 production forecast will not be revised; instead, a new forecast will be made each month throughout the growing season. End-of-season estimates are made after harvest. At the end of the marketing season, a balance sheet is calculated using carryover stocks, production, exports, millings, feeding, and ending stocks. Revisions are then made if the balance sheet relationships or other administrative data warrant changes. Estimates of acres for barley, oats, and wheat are subject to revision in the August Crop Production report. Acres for chickpeas, corn, cotton, dry edible peas, lentils, peanuts, rice, sorghum, soybeans, and sugarbeets are subject for revision in the September Crop Production report each year. Barley, oat, rye, and wheat end-of-season estimates are made in the Small Grains Annual report at the end of September. Canola, dry edible beans, and sunflower acres are subject to revision in the October Crop Production report. Potato acres are subject to revision in the November Crop Production report. End-of-season estimates for all other row crops are made in the Annual Crop Production Summary in January. Revisions to planted acres will only be made when either special survey data, administrative data, such as Farm Service Agency program "sign up" data, or remote sensing data are available. Harvested acres may be revised any time a production forecast is made if there is strong evidence that the intended harvested area has changed since the last forecast. Reliability: To assist users in evaluating the reliability of the August 1 production forecast, the "Root Mean Square Error," a statistical measure based on past performance, is computed. The deviation between the August 1 production forecast and the final estimate is expressed as a percentage of the final estimate. The average of the squared percentage deviations for the latest 20-year period is computed. The square root of the average becomes statistically the "Root Mean Square Error." Probability statements can be made concerning expected differences in the current forecast relative to the final end-of-season estimate, assuming that factors affecting this year's forecast are not different from those influencing recent years. For example, the "Root Mean Square Error" for the August 1 corn for grain production forecast is 4.0 percent. This means that chances are 2 out of 3 that the current production forecast will not be above or below the final estimate by more than 4.0 percent. Chances are 9 out of 10 (90 percent confidence level) that the difference will not exceed 7.0 percent. Also, shown in the following table is a 20-year record for selected crops of the differences between the August 1 forecast and the final estimate. Using corn again as an example, changes between the August 1 forecast and the final estimate during the last 20 years have averaged 384 million bushels, ranging from 5 million bushels to 1.17 billion bushels. The August 1 forecast has been below the final estimate 8 times and above 12 times. This does not imply that the August 1 corn forecast this year is likely to understate or overstate final production.
