replenish depleted irrigation water supplies in Idaho, Utah, and Nevada but
normal or above precipitation for the rest of the winter will be needed for
supplies to reach adequate levels. Although rainfall was below average in
parts of the South Atlantic States soil moisture supplies are sufficient
for current needs. Precipitation continued below average in the Central
and Southern Plains as much of the area received less than half normal
precipitation.

Fall seeded grains east of the Mississippi River and in the Northern
Plains generally held earlier good conditions. In the Pacific Coast States
ample moisture and mild temperatures favored development and condition of
small grains improved. Late-seeded grains are now well established. However,
some fields were damaged by local floods and reseeding will be necessary.
Small grains in the central and northern Mountain States also received
beneficial moisture in December. Lack of moisture continued to plague the
Central and Southern Plains States. Dry weather since wheat emerged has
retarded root and plant growth and wheat in the area is particularly sus~
ceptible to winter hazards. Rain and snow the last week of December pro-
vided some relief but additional moisture is needed. Snow cover over the
Northern Plains and central and northern Mountain States at the end of the
month benefited small grains and gave added protection from the cold
temperatures.

CORN ON FARMS: January 1, 1967 stocks of corn on farms totaled 2,885

million bushels, 6 percent below a year earlier, and the
lowest since January 1, 1965. This equals some 70 percent of the 1966 pro-
duction. Stocks on North Central region farms totaled 2,641 million bushels.
This important corn producing area accounted for about 92 percent of total
U.S. farm stocks.

Farm disappearance of corn during October-December, at 1,748 million
bushels, is a record high. Relatively strong corn prices since harvest,
and increased harvest by picker-sheller and combine, leads to the sale of
corn directly from the field and has resulted in more movement of corn off
farms soon after harvest. Needs for livestock feed have also caused a
steady drain on farm-stored corn.

WHEAT ON FARMS: Stocks of all wheat on farms January 1, 1967 totaled 409

million bushels, 1 percent above a year earlier and the
largest for the date since 1961. Disappearance from farms during October -
December was 135 million bushels, 18 million bushels less than in the same
quarter of 1965. Stocks on January 1 equaled 31 percent of the 1966 pro-
duction of all wheat, the same as a year earlier.

Stocks of durum wheat on farms January 1, 1967 totaled 40.2 million
bushels, 30 percent below a year earlier and smallest for the date since
1962. Disappearance from farms during October -~ December 1966 was 22.3
million bushels compared with 15.4 million bushels in the year earlier
quarter.

OATS ON FARMS: Oats stored on farms January 1 totaled 555 million

bushels, down 15 percent froma year earlier. Lower
farm holdings continue to reflect the downward trend in produétion of

Rate of lay per 100 layers on January 1 was 58.1 eggs, 1 percent above
@ year earlier and up seasonally from the 57.9 on December 1, 1966. Rate of
lay was 3 percent above a year earlier in the West North Central, 2 percent
in the South Atlantic, and 1 percent in the North Atlantic, but was down 1
percent in the West. The rate showed little change in the East North Central
and South Central regions. Pullets not of laying age on January 1 totaled
55.5 million, up 15 percent from a year earlier and up 35 percent from the
January 1 average. Potential leyers (hens and pullets of laying age plus
pullets not of laying age) are estimated at 367.6 million birds compared
with 352.0 million a year earlier and 368.0 million on December 1, 1966.
Compared with a year earlier, potential layers were up 9 percent in both the
South Atlantic and South Central, up 3 percent in the East North Central and
2 percent in both the North Atlantic and Western regions. Potential layers

Disappearance of barley from farms during October ~ December 1966
was million bushels, 15 percent more than a year earlier, In
the Western States, October ~ December disappearance was up 32 per~
cent and in the North Central States disappearance was 2 percent
below a year earlier.

RYE STOCKS ON FARMS: Rye stored on farms January 1 totaled 9.5 mil-
lion bushels, down 3.7 million bushels from a
year earlier, mostly due to sharply lower farm stocks in North Dakote,
the leading rye producing State. Farm stocks in North Dakota on
Jenuary 1,at 3.7 million bushels, were only about half the baldwins
a year earlier, due to the sharply reduced 1966 crop. Disappearance
of rye from U, S. farms during the October-December quarter was 6.1
million bushels compared with 5.0 million bushels a year earlier.

HAY STOCKS ON FARMS: January 1 farm stocks of hay are estimated at

84.8 million tons, dow 4 percent from a year
earlier when stocks were near the record high set in 1959. ‘The
feeding season started last May 1 with carryover stocks of 22.7 mil~
lion tons. Production in 1966, at 120.9 million tons was 4 percent
below a year earlier, but 2 percent above average. Dry weather in
the Mountain States during most of the growing season limited the
growth of range grasses and resulted in the feeding of more than the
usual quantities of supplemental feed. Most of the Nation had gener~
ally mild, open weather in late fall which permitted grazing and
gleaning of fields. However, the dry Western areas had only limited
quantities of range feed available. Disappearance from May 1 to
January 1, at 58.8 million tons, is above the same period a year ago.
Hay stocks on January 1 were below last year in all regions except
the North Atlantic.

AVOCADOS: California's production of fall and winter variety avocados

is forecast at 40,000 tons » 23 percent more than last year.
Harvest of both Fuerte and other fall and winter varieties is in-
creasing. Movement of avocados is running ahead of last season. Over
one~fourth of the 1966-67 crop had been shipped by the end of
December, compared with about 17 percent of the 1965-66 crop shipped
@ year earlier.

CITRUS: The U. S. production of oranges during the 1966-67 season

is expected to be the largest of record. The January 1
forecast of production at 181.3 million boxes is 28 percent larger
than last season's crop and 58 percent more than average. Florida's
crop is expected to total 142.4 million boxes, the largest of record
for that State. Texas expects to harvest 2.4 million boxes, the
largest crop since the disastrous freeze in January 1962, California's
crop at 34 million boxes is 8 percent under last season but 23 per-
cent more than average. Arizona expects to harvest slightly fewer
oranges than last year due to a short crop of Navels.


CROP PRODUCTION, January 1967 Crop Reporting Board, SRS, USDA

recent years, Stocks were below a year earlier in the North Central
States where 89 percent of farm stocks are located: Stocks were also
lower in other regions except the South Atlantic and South Centrel
where stocks were above a year earlier because of higher production.
Disappearance from ferms during the October - December 1966 quarter
totaled 120 million bushels, same as the year earlier period,

SOYBEANS ON FARMS: Soybeans on farms January 1 are estimated at 347
million bushels, a record high. Current stocks

are 22 percent above January 1, 1966 farm holdings. Stocks were 37.3

percent of the 1966 production compared with 33.6 percent a year earlier,

Except the small producing North Atlantic Region, January 1 farm
stocks were above last year in all areas because of the record 1966
crop. The North Central States, where 84 percent of the total U, S,
farm stocks were located, had 19 percent more on hand than a year
eatlier, Towa had the largest stocks, at 86 million bushels, followed
by ‘Illinois, 65 million, and Minnesota, 48 million.

The September 1, 1966 farm supply totaled 936 million bushels
(1966 production of 932 million bushels plus a carryover of 4 million).
From this supply the indicated movement from farms for September ~
December amounted to 589 million bushels or 62.9 percent of beginning
supplies, This compares with 569 million bushels farm disappearance
for the same period a year earlier,

FLAXSEED STOCKS ON FARMS: Flaxseed stored on farms January 1 totaled

7.7 million bushels -~ lowest for January 1
since 1962, Stocks were 45 percent beloy a year earlier, Most of the
stocks were located in the Dakotas and Minnesota, with North Dakota
having 66 percent of the national total,

Disappearance of flaxseed from farms during the October - December
quarter was 2,4 million bushels, 63 percent below the same quarter a
year earlier.

SORGHUM GRAIN ON FARMS: January 1 farm stocks of sorghum grain totaled

239 million bushels, 12 percent greater than
year-earlier holdings. The current high level of farm stocks results
mainly from the record large 1966 crop. Nebraska, Kansas, and Texas

early oranges and grapefruit continued through December. There was
some scattered freeze damage, but losses are not expected to be heavy.
Picking of Valencias is not expected to begin before February 1.

POTATOES: Production of 1967 winter potatoes is forecast at 4,581,000

hundredweight~-10 percent less than 1966 but 13 percent
above average. The forecast is 5 percent above a month ago as more
acreage was planted than estimated earlier, Stands in Florida are
mostly good. Harvest of both "reds" and "whites" has started in the
Everglades and digging of "reds" is expected to start in Ft. Myers by
mid-January. In California, harvest is underway in all areas. Volume
is expected to increase steadily during January.

Intentions for the late spring potato plantings are placed at
115,500 acres, 9 percent below the acreage planted in 1966 and 1 percent
below average. Reductions from 1966 planted acreages are reported for
California, Arizona, Texas, Louisiana, Arkensas, Alabama, and South
Carolina. The acreages in North Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi, and
Oklahoma are expected to be the same as in 1966, In the Baldwin area
of Alabama, land preparation has progressed well. Plantings are exe
pected to start in late January. In Louisiana, plantings are not ex-
pected to start until early February. Some planting in Arizona is
underway; however, most is expected to be planted during January and
early February. In California, planting in the early Hiison district
was nearing completion by January 1, while in the other areas, planting
is underway.

POULTRY AND EGGS: Egg production during December totaled 5,601 million

eggs, up 4 percent from December 1965 and 7 percent
above the 5~year average for December. Layer numbers during December
averaged 311.7 million, up 2 percent from a year earlier and 1 percent
above the November 1966 average. Monthly production per layer averaged
17.97 eggs during December, a seasonal increase of 4 percent from a
month earlier and up 1 percent from December 1965. For August through
December, the rate of lay set a new high for each month. Total egg
production was 64,564 million eggs during 1966, compared with 64,588
million during 1965. The 1966 production is second only to the record
1965 level.

December egg production set record highs for the month in the
South Atlantic, South Central, and Western regions. Production was
above a year earlier in all regions, by 8 percent in the South Atlantic,
T percent in the South Central, 2 percent in both the North Atlantic
and East North Central, 1 percent in the West North Central and 2
fractionally higher in the West.

Iayer numbers on January 1 totaled 312.1 million, compared with
303.7 million on January 1, 1966 and 311.2 million on December 1, 1966.
layer numbers on January 1 continued at a record low in the West North
Central States but at a record high in the South Atlantic region.

The South Central States have their highest January 1 number since 1950.

CROP PRODUCTION, January 1967 Crop Reporting Board, SRS, USDA

The Nation's 1966-67 grapefruit crop is expected to total 51,5
million boxes, up 10 percent from lest season and 31 percent more than
average, Florida and Texas account for the increase from lest
season, as both California and Arizona expect fewer grapefruit than
in the 1965-66 season, Lemon production is forecast et 17.6 million
boxes, 8 percent more than last season and My percent above average.
California and Arizona each expect to harvest more lemons than
both last year and average.

Florida's tangerine crop is estimated at 4.6 million boxes, 28
percent more than last season, Tangelos in Florida are forecast at 1.8
million boxes, up 50 percent from 1965-66,

In Florida, citrus trees are in good condition in spite of the
shortage of rainfall the psst three months. Irrigation is widespread,
supplies of irrigation vater are low but not dangerously so, Non~
irrigated groves are beginning to shed leaves, however, these re-
present only a very small segment of the producing trees, Cold teather
has brought out good color and caused only minor damage to some
groves in low areas, Fruit size is about average and droppage has been
light. Orange maturity is two to three weeks later than in the past
two years, Harvest increased about mid-December because concentrate
plants opened, Picking for fresh market was at a virtual standstill
during the seven day post-Christmas shipping holiday, but harvest
for processing kept volume at the pre-holiday level. At the end of
December, harvest was in full swing and is expected to, and must,
continue at a high level for this record crop to be harvested during
its optimum yield, Approximately two-thirds of the oranges and one-
half the grapefruit picked to date have been utilized for processing.
Over 60 percent of both the tangerines and tangelos have been harvested,

In California, picking of Navel oranges continues at a normal
pace, Movement to date is running abead of last year due to an
earlier starting date, Fruit set wag lighter than last year's, but
sizes are good. December rain was beneficial for growth and develop-
ment of the nev crop Valencias. There has been frost in most producing
areas, but not of long enough duration to cause any damage. Weather
conditions have favored development of Desert Valleys grapefruit,
but fruit size is below normal, Fruit is coloring well and there has
been no damage from freezing temperatures, Only a small volume has
been picked to date but is expected to increase gradually, Heaviest
movement is expected in May and June, California's "Other Areas”
grapefruit has escaped freeze damage, and trees are in good condition.
Fruit sizes are small in some districts. December rains ranged from
9 to 16 inches in some localities and leached harmful soil salts.
Although beneficial, the leaching and rainfall also causedheavy loss
of fertilizers. Very little of this crop is expected to be harvested
before April or May and volume movement is expected during the
summer. Lemons are sizing rapidly. Harvest is increasing in Southern
California, Picking in the Central area cnntinues seasonally and
movement from the Desert area nears completion,

In Arizona, late December rain slowed harvest of oranges

and grapefruit. Lemon harvest is expected to be
completed by mid-January. In Texas, harvest of

CROP PRODUCTION, January 1967 Crop Reporting Board, SRS, USDA
GENERAL CROP REPORT AS OF JANUARY 1, 1967

December weather brought adequate to excessive moisture to most of
the country east of the Mississippi River and the Far West but only
limited precipitation to the dry areas in the Central and Southern
Great Plains, according to the Crop Reporting Board. Heavy rains and
snow delayed wind-up of corn harvest in southeastern portions of the
Corn Belt and caused losses of corn in some fields. Livestock were
reported in good condition. Grazing was limited the latter part of the
month by snow cover over much of the northern half of the country, but
cattle had made good use of pastures and crop residues early in the
month.

December milk production was about the same as a year earlier
but 2 percent below average. Egg production was up 4 percent from
December 1965 and 7 percent above average because both the number of
layers and rate of lay was up. Citrus production in 1966-67 is indi-
cated 25 percent more than the previous year and 49 percent above aver~
age. Winter vegetable output is expected to be 3 percent more than last
year; but winter potato production, 10 percent less.

Ferm stocks of the four feed grains on January 1 were 6 percent
below a year earlier, Stocks of all wheat on farms were 1 percent above
@ year earlier and soybean stocks were at record levels ~- 22 percent
more than last year's record high stocks. Farm stocks of hay were down
4 percent from January 1, 1966 and all regions except the North Atlantic
hed lower hay supplies.

December temperatures varied widely but averaged slightly below
normal over most of the country, except the North Atlantic States, por~
tions of the Eastern Corn Belt, and the Northwest. In general, the
month began and ended cold, but some unusually high temperatures occurred
about mid-month, especially in the North Central and North Atlantic
States, Freezing temperatures pushed as far south as the Gulf Coast
and northern Florida about the first of the month and each week there-
after except the second. However, damage to crops was light and con~-
fined mostly to vegetables. Several snowstorms occurred during the
month and parts of the Fast received the heaviest pre-Christmas snowfall
of record. Near the end of the month the worst blizzard of the season
moved. across the Great Plains, winds up to 50 miles per hour and near
zero temperatures. However, the snow in Nebraska and Kansas was welcome
because soils were very dry in the area, At the end of the month snow
covered the ground over much of the northern half of the country.

Precipitation during December averaged near normal or above over a
large part of the country. The chief exceptions were most of the Western
Corn Belt, Central and Southern Great Plains, and portions of the South
Atlantic States. Heavy rains and snow the first part of December resulted
in some local flooding in parts of Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois, bringing
an already slow corn harvest to a halt. Flood waters and high moisture
caused considerable loss of grain in some fields. Some local flooding
also occurred in northern Arizona, Utah, and the Pacific Coast States.
The above normal precipitation helped
