HDR2012000110030331950830CORN NARRATIVE Corn: Farmers intend to plant 75.3 million acres of corn for all purposes in 1995, down 5 percent from last year but 3 percent above 1993. Expected acreage is down in all the major States. The change from a "0" acreage reduction requirement to a 7.5 percent requirement to participate in the Corn Program accounts for most of the decline. Acreage in the Southeast is down sharply as growers are switching to cotton. HDR2012000110030331950830SORGHUM NARRATIVE Sorghum: Farmers plan to seed a total of 9.21 million acres for all purposes this year. This is down 6 percent from 1994 and the lowest acreage since 1929. Most of the net acreage decline is the 400,000 acre drop in Texas intentions where cotton is increasing. Kansas growers plan to equal their 1994 acreage. HDR2012000110030331950830OATS NARRATIVE Oats: Producers plan to seed or have seeded a total of 6.75 million acres of oats for 1995, up 2 percent from the 6.64 million acres seeded for 1994. Acreage seeded in the major corn producing States increased sharply as corn growers participating in the Corn Program will have a 7.5 percent acreage reduction requirement (ARP) and will be seeding oats as a cover crop. Growers intend to harvest 3.65 million acres of oats for grain in 1995, down 9 percent from the 4.02 million acres harvested in 1994. If producers follow through with these intentions, this would be the least oat acreage harvested for grain since estimates were first made in 1866. HDR2012000110030331950830ALL WHEAT NARRATIVES All Wheat: Planted area for 1995 is expected to total 70.9 million acres, up 1 percent from 1994. Virtually all the increase is due to an acreage increase in Durum wheat. Winter Wheat: Seeded area for 1995 is 49.3 million acres, down 1 percent from the total published in January but virtually unchanged from 1994. Durum Wheat: Area seeded for 1995 is expected to total 3.29 million acres, 15 percent more than last year. Extremely favorable prices relative to Hard Red Spring wheat are encouraging the jump in North Dakota's intentions. Other Spring Wheat: Growers intend to seed 18.4 million acres this spring. This is up slightly from 1994. As expected, Montana farmers boosted planned acreage considerably. However, increases there were offset by the huge drop in North Dakota. HDR2012000110030331950830BARLEY NARRATIVE Barley: Growers intend to seed 7.04 million acres for 1995, down 2 percent from the 7.16 million acres seeded last year. If these intentions are realized, this would be least acreage seeded to barley since planted acreage was first estimated in 1926. HDR2012000110030331950830SOYBNS NARRATIVE Soybeans: Soybean plantings are estimated at 61.5 million acres this year, down 1 percent from 1994. Minimum tillage and no till planting continues to gain in popularity among farmers in the midwest. Farmers in the south are reducing their plantings due in part to price and higher returns from alternative crops, such as cotton. The increase of 150,000 acres or 7 percent in Kansas was the largest increase for soybean estimating States. Arkansas and Georgia had the largest decreases with 200,000 acres and 170,000 acres, respectively. Of the 29 estimating States, growers in 6 intend to plant more acres of soybeans in 1995, 14 intend to plant less acres, and 9 are unchanged from 1994. HDR2012000110030331950830RICE NARRATIVE Rice: Growers intend to seed 3.14 million acres this year, a decrease of 7 percent from last year. Long grain acreage shows a decrease of 6 percent in intended acreage, medium grain acreage is down 9 percent, and short grain acreage is unchanged. All States showed a decrease in acreage from last year. Rice fields in California were drained, burned, and prepared for planting where conditions permitted. Moisture conditions in Arkansas have been a little wet in the southeast but not extreme. Conditions seem close to average. HDR2012000110030331950830SUNFLWR NARRATIVE Sunflower: Growers intend to plant 3.51 million acres of oil and non-oil sunflowers in 1995, 2 percent below 1994. The total is comprised of 2.93 million acres of oil types and 582,000 acres of non-oil types. Minnesota and North Dakota showed a decrease in plantings from last year. Price levels in January and February may have been a factor in these two States to decrease intended acreage from 1994. The remaining major States all showed an increase in plantings from a year ago. HDR2012000110030331950830FLAXSD NARRATIVE Flaxseed: Plantings in 1995 are expected to total 193,000 acres, 8 percent above 1994. In North Dakota, planted acreage increased 10 percent which may be related to flaxseed price. Minnesota and South Dakota both showed no change in planted acreage from a year ago. HDR2012000110030331950830SWPOT NARRATIVE Sweetpotatoes: Growers intend to plant 83,100 acres of sweetpotatoes this year, down 1 percent from last year but the same as two years ago. Increased acreage is expected in Louisiana. Declines are expected in North Carolina, California, and the rest of the Gulf States. Atlantic Coast States, except for North Carolina, are going for the same level as last year. Farmers in Louisiana are tending beds of sweetpotato slips in preparation for transplanting in the coming weeks. Rains in California and Texas slowed field work. North Carolina plantings should be down by 3 percent. Alabama, Mississippi, and Georgia are down 2, 8, and 12 percent, respectively. South Carolina, Virginia, and New Jersey will have the same acreage as last year. HDR2012000110030331950830PNUTS NARRATIVE Peanuts: Producers intend to plant 1.62 million acres of peanuts this year, down 1 percent from the 1994 planted acreage of 1.65 million acres and 6 percent below 1993. Southeast peanut growers (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and South Carolina) intend to plant 961,000 acres, down 2 percent from 1994 and 9 percent below 1993. In the Virginia-North Carolina region, producers intend to plant 242,000 acres of peanuts this year. This represents a marginal decrease from 1994 and 2 percent less than 1993. Growers in the Southwest (New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas) intend to plant 419,000 acres, virtually unchanged from last year but 3 percent below the 1993 level. HDR2012000110030331950830DRY BNS NARRATIVE Dry Beans: Farmers intend to plant 2.08 million acres of dry beans in 1995, up 2 percent from last year and 11 percent above 1993. Sharp increases are expected in a group of smaller producing States including Montana, Utah, New Mexico, and Oregon. Minnesota growers are planning an 11 percent increase. North Dakota, Michigan, and New York look for 5 percent gains. California and Colorado plan increases of 3 and 2 percent, respectively. Planted acreage in Kansas, Nebraska, and Washington should remain the same as last year. Fewer acres are expected in Idaho, Wyoming, Texas, and Wisconsin than a year ago. Rain in California and Washington could delay early planting. Plans for acreage increases are attributed to favorable prices on some classes. However, lower prices of pintos are blamed for cutbacks in Idaho and Wyoming. Soil moisture is adequate in dryland areas of Utah and Colorado, but dry in New Mexico and Texas. Acreage intentions overall are the same as last year in Kansas and Nebraska but plantings may shift away from lower priced pintos. Dry bean acreage will be a record high in North Dakota, if current plans are carried out. Acreage is up sharply in Minnesota and to a lesser extent in Michigan and New York. Much of the increased acreage in these States will likely be in navy and black beans. HDR2012000110030331950830ALL HAY NARRATIVE All Hay: Producers expect to harvest 59.0 million acres of hay in 1995, 234,000 acres more than were harvested in 1994. This increase is the result of livestock grazing stock fields due to a mild winter and 1994's production being the largest since 1991. HDR2012000110030331950830COTTON NARRATIVE Cotton: Area planted to all cotton for 1995 is expected to total 16.2 million acres, 18 percent above 1994 plantings and 21 percent above 1993. Upland acreage is expected to total 16.0 million acres, up 18 percent from last year. Growers intend to increase their plantings of American-Pima cotton to 188,000 acres, up 12 percent from last year but 1 percent less than 1993. Upland growers in the Delta States (Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, and Tennessee) intend to plant 4.73 million acres. This is a 15 percent increase from 1994 and 13 percent above the acreage of two years ago. Texas and Oklahoma producers intend to plant 6.57 million acres, a 13 percent increase from 1994. Planting is active in the Rio Grande Valley and Coastal Bend. Moisture supplies are generally good in most areas of Texas except on the Plains, where dryland acreage is short of moisture. The Southeast States (Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina), continue their increasing trend in cotton acreage. Planting intentions are estimated at 2.98 million acres, 44 percent above 1994 acreage and 81 percent greater than 1993. Upland planted acreage in the Western States (Arizona, California, and New Mexico) is expected to total 1.56 million acres, 6 percent and 10 percent above the 1994 and 1993 levels, respectively. Planting was active in Arizona's Yuma area but weekly rainfall in March slowed fieldwork. In the Desert area of California, seeding operations began the first of March but won't begin in the San Joaquin area until late March. All States, except Texas, intend to increase American-Pima acreage. Arizona's acreage is expected to increase by 2 percent to 49,000 acres and California's producers anticipate 23 percent more acres will be planted. HDR2012000110030331950830TOBACCO NARRATIVE Tobacco: Growers intend to harvest 692,330 acres of tobacco in 1995. If these intentions are realized, the area harvested will be 3 percent above 1994. Flue-cured tobacco showed an increase from 1994, but most other tobacco types indicate decreases from 1994. Flue-cured growers plan to harvest 395,900 acres, 10 percent above last year with every State showing an increase in acres from last year. Flue-cured tobacco accounts for 57 percent of this year's total tobacco acreage. Burley tobacco growers expect to harvest 254,100 acres, 5 percent below last year. Kentucky, with 65 percent of the 1995 burley area to be harvested, is 6 percent below a year ago. Acreage of Maryland type tobacco, at 12,200 acres, is expected to be up 1 percent from last year. Wisconsin growers expect to harvest 3,000 acres of binder, unchanged from last year. Dark fire-cured types of tobacco are indicated down 7 percent from a year ago and estimated at 16,490 acres for 1995. Growers of dark air-cured tobacco indicate a 11 percent decrease from last year to 4,000 acres for 1995. HDR2012000110030331950830SUGRBTS NARRATIVE Sugarbeets: Area planted to sugarbeets for 1995 is expected to total 14.5 million acres in the 14 producing States. If growers intentions are realized, planted acreage will be 2 percent below last year. Rain in early March slowed sugarbeet planting in California. Heavy rains at mid-March flooded low-lying sugarbeet fields in California and caused plant loss. One-half of the emerged sugarbeet plants in Colorado were destroyed by a late April freeze but most of the damaged acres were replanted. HDR2012000110030331950830RELIABLTY OF ACRG DATA IN THIS REPORT Reliability of Acreage Data in this Report Survey Procedures: The acreage estimates in this report are based primarily on a survey conducted the first two weeks of March. The March Acreage Intentions Survey is a probability survey that includes about 70,000 operators selected from a list of producers that ensure all operations in the U.S. have a chance to be selected. These operators were contacted by mail, telephone, or personal interviews to obtain information on crop acreage planned for the 1995 crop year. Three basic survey estimates are calculated from the March Intentions Survey. One is called the direct expansion of the reported survey data. The reported acreage for each farm in the sample is multiplied times its chances of being included in the survey. The largest farms are selected with certainty, so their data are multiplied by 1.0. The smallest farms are selected with rates of 1 out of 150. Their data are therefore multiplied by 150.0. The second is a ratio of acreage reported by operators on the March survey to acreage reported by the same operators in 1994 surveys. This provides a measure of change by crop between 1994 and 1995. The direct expansion for the March survey is divided by the direct expansion from the 1994 survey to obtain an additional measure of change. This third estimate utilizes data from all operators reporting on either survey. Estimating Procedures: National and State data for individual crops were reviewed for reasonableness and consistency with general cultural practices, farm program legislation, economic factors, and historic estimates. Each State Statistical Office submits its analysis of the data to the Agricultural Statistics Board for review. Survey data are compiled to the National level and are reviewed at this level independently of each State's review. Acreage estimates were based on survey estimates and the historical relationship of official estimates to survey estimates. Revision Policy: Acreage estimates in the "Prospective Plantings" report will not be revised. These estimates are intended to reflect grower intentions as of the survey period. New acreage estimates will be made based on surveys conducted in June when crop acreages have been established or planting intentions are firm. These new estimates will be published in the "Acreage" release scheduled for June 30, 1995. Winter wheat is an exception. Since winter wheat acreages were seeded prior to the March survey, any changes in estimates in this report are considered revisions. The estimates of the harvested acreage of winter wheat will be published on May 11, 1995, along with the first production forecast of the crop year. The winter wheat planted and harvested acreage is subject to revisions in the "Acreage" report. Reliability: The survey used to make acreage estimates is subject to sampling and non-sampling type errors that are common to all surveys. Sampling errors for major crops generally are between 1.0 and 3.0 percent. Sampling errors represent the variability between estimates that would result if many different samples were surveyed at the same time. Sampling errors cannot be applied directly to the acreage published in this report to determine confidence intervals since the official estimates represent a composite of information from more than a single source. Non-sampling errors cannot be measured directly. They may occur due to incorrect reporting and/or recording data, omissions or duplications, and errors in processing. To minimize non-sampling errors, rigorous quality controls are used in the data collection process and all data are carefully reviewed for consistency and reasonableness. In addition to the survey errors discussed above, data users are cautioned that the actual acreage estimates may vary from data included in this report. Growers may change their intentions after the survey because of the effects of weather, availability of production inputs, change in economic conditions prior to planting, and the implications of this report. A method of evaluating the reliability of acreage estimates in this report is the "Root Mean Square Error," a statistical measure based on past performances shown below for selected crops. This is computed by expressing the deviations between the planted acreage estimates and the final estimates as a percent of the final estimates and averaging the squared percentage deviations for the 1975-1994 20-year period; the square root of this average becomes statistically the "Root Mean Square Error." Probability statements can be made concerning expected differences in the current estimates relative to the final estimates assuming that factors affecting this year's estimate are not different than those that occurred during the past 20 years. For example, the "Root Mean Square Error" for the corn planted estimate is 2.2 percent. This means that chances are 2 out of 3 that the current acreage estimate of 75.3 million acres will not be above or below the final estimate by more than 2.2 percent or approximately 1.66 million acres. Chances are 9 out of 10 (90 percent confidence level) that the difference will not exceed 3.8 percent or approximately 2.86 million acres. Also, shown in the table is a 10-year record for selected crops of the difference between the "Prospective Plantings" planted acres estimates and the final estimates. Using corn again as an example, changes between the intentions estimates and the final estimates during the past 10 years have averaged 1.09 million acres, ranging from 173,000 acres to 3.16 million acres. The prospective plantings estimates have been below the final estimate 4 times and above 6 times. This does not imply that the planted estimate this year is likely to understate or overstate the final estimate.
