RELIABILITY OF DECEMBER 1-COTTON- PRODUCTION FORECAST

The cotton production forecast in this report is based primarily on an
objective yield survey made during the last week in November and reports from
cotton ginners as of December 1. Some adjustments have been made in harvested
acres based on acreage data from ASCS. The objective yield survey provided
small plot observations, counts and measurements based on a _ probability
sample. This survey is subject to sampling and non-sampling type errors that
are common to atl surveys. The forecast is also subject to change due to
future weather effects and other factors that cannot be measured currently but
directly affect production.

To assist users in evaluating the reliability of the December 1 cotton
production forecast, the “Root Mean Square Error", a statistical measure based
on past performance, is computed. This is done by expressing the deviations
between the December 1? production forecasts and the final estimates as a
percent of the final estimates and averaging the squared percentage deviations
for the 1964-83 twenty-year period; the square root of this average becomes
statistically the “Root Mean Square Error“. Probability statements can be
made concerning the 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.

The “Root Mean Square Error" for the December 1 cotton production forecast
fs 1.5 percent. This means that chances are 2 out of 3 that the current
production forecast of 13.4 million bales will not be above or below the final
estimate by more than 1.5 percent or approximately 201 thousand bales.
Chances are 9 out of 10 (90 percent confidence level) that the difference will
not exceed 2.6 percent or approximately 348 thousand bales.

Differences between the December 1 forecast and the final estimate during
the past 10 years have averaged 165 thousand bales, ranging from 3 thousand to
338 thousand bales. The December 1 forecast has been below the final estimate
7 times and above 3 times.

COTTON: United States production is expected to total 13.4 million bales, up

nearly 1 percent from last month's forecast and 72 percent above 1983.
Upland production is forecast at 13.3 million bales and American-pima at 111
thousand bales. Upland growers will harvest 10.3 million acres (4.18 million
hectares) compared with 7.30 million acres (2.96 million hectares) last year.
American-pima area for harvest is estimated at 77.8 thousand acres (31.5
thousand hectares), 24 percent more than 1983.

Production in the Southeastern States is forecast at 1.02 million bates,
up 7 percent from November 1, and up 160 percent from last year. Harvest is
nearing completion; however, it is running slightly behind normal in all
States.

Delta producers expect to harvest 3.74 million bales, 1 percent more than
expected last month and 89 percent more than the 1983 production. Harvest
continued to lag behind normal as late month rains slowed operations. Yield
prospects for Tennessee were down slightly, while all other Delta States
showed increases or remained unchanged.

Texas and Oklahoma upland production is forecast at 4.35 million bales, 4
percent above November 1 and 72 percent above 1983. In Texas harvest progress
was Slowed as growers waited for a killing freeze.

Western States expect an upland production of 4.15 million bales, down 3
percent from last month but 50 percent above 1983. Harvest is nearing
completion in Arizona and California ahead of normal and jis making normal
progress in New Mexico.

The Bureau of the Census reports 8,979,119 running bales ginned prior to
December 1, 1984 compared with 6,002,973 bales ginned to the same date in 1983
and 8,822,657 bales in 1982.

COTTONSEED: Production, based on a 3-year average lint-seed ratio, is forecast
at 5.34 million tons (4.85 million metric tons), compared with
3.08 million tons (2.79 million metric tons) last year.

BURLEY TOBACCO: Production of burley tobacco is forecast at 740 million pounds

(336 thousand metric tons), 54 percent above 1983. Production
is up in all States except Missouri. Yield per acre is expected to average
2329 pounds, 684 pounds above the previous year.

CROP PRODUCTION, DECEMBER 1984 B-3 CROP REPORTING BOARD, SRS, USDA


The Californta all orange crop is forecast at 59.0 million boxes, down 5
percent from October 1, up 22 percent from last season, but 22 percent below
the record high 1982-83 crop. The forecast for Navel oranges is 31.0 million
boxes, down 11 percent from October 1, 7 percent less than last season and 23
percent below the record high 1982-83 production. Harvest of the Nave)? crop
is 11 percent complete. California's Valencia forecast is 28.0 million boxes,
4 percent more than the October 1 forecast, 87 percent greater than last
season, but 22 percent below the record high 1982-83 crop.

The Arizona all orange forecast is 2.65 million boxes, down 2 percent from
October 1, but 47 percent more than last season.

Changes in U.S. production between December 1 and final production have
averaged 129.9 million boxes over the past ten seasons, ranging from 300
thousand boxes in 1977-78 to 53.2 million boxes in 1983-84. The freeze that
occurred in Florida and Texas during December 1983 was the major cause for the
53.2 million box difference between the December 1, 1983 forecast and final
Production for the 1983-84 season.

FLORIDA FROZEN CONCENTRATED JUICE YIELD: The 1984-85 projection of Frozen
Concentrated Orange Juice is 1.46
gallons per box at 42.0 degree Brix. This yield computation is projected to
the final amount reported by the Florida Citrus Processors Association at the
end of the harvest season. The 1983-84 freeze-reduced final season average
yield was 1.28931 gallons per box. In 1982-83, the final was 1.48305 gallons
per box.

GRAPEFRUIT: Excluding Texas and California's “other areas" grapefruit, the

1984-85 forecast continues at 51.8 million boxes (1.93 million
metric tons}, unchanged from the November 1 forecast, 12 percent more than
last season. Production for the California “other areas" crop, which will be
forecast as of April 1, 1985, accounted for 3,10 million boxes last season.
The Florida all grapefruit forecast is 44.5 million boxes--unchanged from the
October 1 forecast but 9 percent more than last season. Harvest is 13 percent
complete. Arizona's forecast continues at 3.50 million boxes, up 67 percent
from last season. California's "Desert Valley" forecast continues at 3.80
million boxes, 14 percent above 1983-84 harvest.

LEMONS: Production in Arizona and California is expected to total 27.5 million

boxes (948 thousand metric tons), unchanged from November 2 but 29
percent more than last season's utilized production. Harvest is 20 percent
complete. California's forecast continues at 22.3 million boxes, unchanged
from November 1 but 29 percent above last season.

TANGELOS: The Florida crop, excluding K-early citrus fruit, is forecast at

3.70 million boxes (152 thousand metric tons), unchanged from the
October 1 forecast but 3 percent more than the 1983-84 crop. Harvest is 21
percent complete.

TANGERINES: The U.S. production forecast is 4.00 million boxes (150 thousand

metric tons), down 4 percent from November 1 and 17 percent less
than last season. Harvest is active in all States. The Florida forecast is
1.45 million boxes, down 3 percent from October 1 forecast and 27 percent less
than last season. About 40 percent of the crop has been picked. California's
crop at 1.80 million boxes is down 3 percent from last season. Arizona's
forecast at 750 thousand boxes is 21 percent less than 1983-84,

TEMPLES: The Florida forecast is 3.70 million boxes (152 thousand metric tons)
unchanged from October 1 forecast but 28 percent more than last
season. Harvest has not yet started.

FLORIDA GENERAL CITRUS COMMENTS: Florida's citrus groves were generally main-
tained in good condition during November.

There were many irrigation pumps being used to help maintain adequate moisture
tevels. There was very ltitle new growth due to shorter days, a general Tack
of rain, and cooler temperatures. Most early maturing citrus varieties have
very good natural color and advanced maturity. Harvest of seedless grapefruit
was active prior to Thanksgiving week, which was stow, and then showed good
movement the last week of the month. Picking of early oranges increased
considerably by the end of November, primarily for processing. Movement of
tangetos and tangerines was very active throughout the month of November.

CROP PRODUCTION, DECEMBER 1984 A-7 CROP REPORTING BOARD, SRS, USDA


Production in Kentucky and Tennessee is up 68 and 39 percent, respectively,
from the previous year. Stripping is very active and quality is rated good.

Burley markets opened November 19, about the same time as in 1983.

ORY EDIBLE BEANS: U.S. production totaled 20.5 million cwt (932 thousand

metric tons) in 1984, 32 percent above 1983 and 2 percent
above the November 1 forecast. Production is up from 1983 mostly because of
increased area planted and harvested in all States. Area planted, at 1.48
million acres (598 thousand hectares), rose 25 percent from 1983. Farmers
harvested 1.44 million acres (581 thousand hectares), 26 percent more than in
1983. Yield averaged 1431 pounds per acre compared with 1363 pounds per acre
the previous year.

Production was up from 1983 for all classes except Cranberry and Garbanzo
beans. Percentage increases for major classes were: Navy - 8, Great Northern
- 24, Pinto - 63, Red Kidney - 39 and Pink - 32.

Dry bean production in Michigan totaled 4.17 million cwt, 8 percent below
1983. Average yield, at 1070 pounds per acre in Michigan, dropped 230 pounds
from 1983. This is the main reason for the decline in production. Growers
planted 400 thousand acres in 1984 compared with 360 thousand acres the
previous year. Area harvested totaled 390 thousand acres, 11 percent larger
than in 1983. The Michigan dry bean crop can best be described as having too
much rain early in the growing season and not enough rain from tate July to
the end of September.

California's production is estimated at 3.10 million cwt, 28 percent above
the previous year. Area planted totaled 191 thousand acres, of which 184
thousand acres were harvested. Yields averaged 3 pounds less than in 1983 due
largely to hot, dry weather during most of the growing season.

Nebraska's dry edible bean production is up 48 percent from the previous
year. Yield averaged 1900 pounds per acre, 230 pounds above 1983.

North Dakota's output totaled 2.52 million cwt, 53 percent above 1983.
Acres planted and harvested are up from 1983, 21 and 25 percent,
respectively. Yield averaged 1260 pounds per acre, 230 pounds above the
previous year.

PECANS: The final production forecast for the U.S. pecan crop is 229 million

pounds (104 thousand metric tons), in-shell basis, down 5 percent from
November 1, 15 percent less than the 1983 crop, but 6 percent above the 1982
crop. The forecast for New Mexico at 24.0 million pounds is down 11 percent
from the October 1 forecast, while Texas at 25.0 miltion pounds is unchanged.
Georgia expects 115 million pounds, the same as the "Special" November 17
forecast, but 15 percent above last year. Oklahoma forecasts 24.0 million
pounds, off 4 percent from October 1, while Loutsiana at 8.00 million pounds
is 20 percent less than the October 1 forecast.

PAPAYAS: Hawati fresh papaya production in December is forecast at 5.00 mil-

lion pounds (2270 metric tons), 15 percent below last month's output,
and 12 percent less than production last December. Production is expected to
remain at 5.00 million pounds (2270 metric tons) in January, before decreasing
to 4.80 million pounds (2180 metric tons) in both February and March.

Fresh production during November is estimated at 5.90 million pounds (2680
metric tons), 5 percent above output during the previous month, but 4 percent
below November production last year. Total area in crop during November
increased to 3740 acres (1510 hectares), while harvested area increased to
2730 acres (1100 hectares).

ORANGES: U.S. production, excluding Texas, is forecast at 18] million boxes
(6.96 million metric tons), down 2 percent from the October 1

forecast, but 8 percent above last season, and 18 percent less than 1982-83.
The forecast of all oranges in Florida is 119 million boxes, unchanged from
the October 1 forecast, 2 percent above last season's crop, but 15 percent
below 1982-83. The forecast for early and mid-season varieties in Florida is
59.0 million boxes, 15 percent less than last season and 16 percent below the
1982-83 crop. Harvest of earlies and mids is 5 percent complete. The
Valencta forecast. remains at 60.0 mtllfon boxes, 28 percent more than last
season, but 14 percent below 1982-83.

NOVEMBER WEATHER SUMMARY

Stormy weather was prevalent during most of November over the lower and
middle Mississippi and Ohio Valleys and the Pacific Coast. More than 150
percent of normal precipitation hampered outdoor activities in the Delta States
and the southern Corn Belt. Over 20 inches of rain was dumped on the Oregon
coast. The east central Florida coast was temporarily inundated late in the
month by torrential rains from an extra-tropical storm.

In contrast, it was abnormally dry over central sections of the Great
Plains and Rocky Mountains, much of the northern Plains, the eastern Seaboard,
and extreme southern Texas. Temperaturewise, most of the Nation was near
normal. However, it was slightly cooler than usual over the Coastal Plains,
central Appalachians, and Sierras, The central and northern Plains were a
littte warmer than normal. (Prepared by the Joint USOA/NOAA Agricultural
Weather Facility.)

ROW CROP HARVEST

After untimely, prolonged rains in early November, fair weather a)lowed
harvest resumption as soils dried across the Delta States and much of the Corn
Belt. Heavy rain returned late in the month, hampering soybean and cotton
harvesting in the Delta region and completion of row crop combining in the
eastern Corn Belt. The Southeast and Great Plains had favorable harvest
weather for much of the month. Harvests of most crops lagged normal in the
Nation's midsection for the entire month.

Corn harvesting was 64 percent finished in the 17 major producing States
at the beginning of November, wel] behind last year's 89 percent and the 72
percent average. Muddy conditions slowed progress through the month. By
early December, combining reached 96 percent completion, compared with complete
in 1983 and the 97 percent average. Harvesting was 14 points behind schedule
in Ohio and 12 points slower than normal in Pennsylvania, as the month ended.

Soybean combining was 53 percent complete in the 18 major producing States
at the beginning of November, seriously behind last year's 77 percent and the
78 percent average. Persistent wet conditions hampered the harvest in the
Delta States and eastern Corn Belt for much of the month, As the month ended,
combining advanced to 91 percent completion, 4 points behind a year earlier
and 5 points slower than normal. Progress trailed normal in 10 producing
States: as much as 22 points less than the average in Tennessee and 17 points
less in Mississippi. Eastern Corn Belt harvesting was 6 points behind
schedule; while in the South-central States, progress was 12 points slower
than normal.

Grain sorghum harvesting was 71 percent finished in the 7 major producing
States as the month began, 15 points behind last year and 8 points behind
normal. Combining made good progress during the month across much of the
Great Plains. As November ended, harvesting was 98 percent complete, equaling
both last year and the average. Missouri and Texas were the only States
slightly trailing their averages by early December.

Cotton picking was 38 percent complete, 13 points behind schedule, at the
beginning of November. Persistent heavy rain delayed harvesting, reduced
quality, and caused some losses across the Delta States. Picking reached 70
percent completion in the 14 major producing States by early December, compared
with 85 percent in 1983 and the 79 percent average. Progress lagged normal in
all States except Arizona, California, and Oklahoma. The Texas harvest
advanced slowly because of wet fields. A heavy late-month frost opened late
maturing bolls southward into West Texas.

WINTER WHEAT SEEDING NEARS COMPLETION

Despite rain delays, wheat seedings reached 98 percent completion by early
December, equaling the average. Wet weather hampered planting in the eastern
Corn Belt and Delta States for much of the month, while persistent dry
conditions delayed progress in the Southeast. Stands had emerged on 93
percent of the seeded acreage by the month's end, equaling the average.
Unusually warm Jate-month temperatures allowed germination and growth of
late-seeded wheat fields across much of the Corn Belt. At the end of the
month, light snow provided stands limited protection from cold temperatures
across the northern Plains. Wind damage ranged from light to none in this
region. Cool, wet weather curtailed wheat growth in the Pacific Northwest
late in the month. Excessive rain delayed completion of seeding in Oregon at
the month's end.
