GRAPEFRUIT: The final 1974-75 forecast of grapefruit is 61.0 million boxes, down 100,000 boxes

from June 1 and 6 percent below the 1973-74 crop. The lower forecast this month re-
flects a 200,000 box increase in California and a 300,000 box decline in Florida as indicated by
reported utilization.

Grapefruit harvest in nearly complete in Florida and the California Desert Valleys. Harvest
is about 90 percent complete in Arizona while shipments from California's "Other Areas" are now
underway on a regular basis. Fruit from this area is of good quality and flavor; however, wind
damaged fruit is causing some problems for shippers.

Changes in U.S. grapefruit production between the July 1 forecast and final production have
averaged 358,000 boxes over the past 10 seasona, ranging from 40,000 boxes in both 1970-71 and
1971-72 seasons to 830,000 boxes in the 1968-69 season.

LEMONS: The California and Arizona lemon crop 13 now expected to total a record 29,7 millicn
~ _-boxes, S$ percent more than the June 1 forecast. Picking continued at high levels
through June in the southern coastal areas with moderate to heavy picking expected during July.
An objective measurement survey conducted in June indicates that much of the fruit on the trees
is of a size and maturity to be picked currently thus harvest during the first half of next

season may be light. Overall fruit quality is expected to remain good.

CROP PRODUCTION, JULY 1975 B-4 CROP REPORTING BOARD, SRS, USDA


DURUM WHEAT: Durum wheat production is expected to total a record high 133 million bushels this
~~~ year, up 68 percent from 1974 and 70 percent above 1973. The increase from a year
earlier is the result of a sharp increase in harvested acreage in all States. Yield expectations

are also sharply above last year in all major States.

Yield per harvested acre is expected to average 29.5 bushels, compared with 19.8 bushels
last year and 27.2 in 1973. Growers are expected to harvest an estimated 4.5 million acres this
year, 13 percent more than last year, 57 percent above 1973 and the largest since 1930 when 4.7
million acres were harvested.

Cool, damp weather delayed crop development during June in all major producing areas, In
North Dakota where about 85 percent of the crop is grown, 3 percent of the crop was heading com-
pared with the normal 13 percent, Slightly over two-fifths of the crop in South Dakota was
headed, sharply behind last year and average. Most of the crop in Minnesota and Montana was
also later than normal.

Torrential rains at the end of June caused severe flooding in the southern part of the Red
River Valley in North Dakota and Minnesota, Data for these estimates were collected just prior
to the flooding. The resulting conditions are not reflected in the yield and production fore-
casts for those States. Counties affected by flooding account for about 11 percent of the North
Dakota acreage and 40 percent of the Minnesota acreage. However, the extent of flooding varies
considerably among the counties.

During the past 10 years changes in production from the July 1 forecast to the final esti-
mate averaged 9 million bushels, ranging from negligible to 21 million bushels. The July 1 fore-
cast was above the final estimate 5 of the 10 years by an average of 9 million bushels and below
5 times by an average of nearly 9 million bushels.

OTHER SPRING WHEAT: Production of spring wheat other than durum is forecast at a record 418

million bushels, This is 29 percent above last year and 18 percent above
1973. A smaller acreage for harvest is estimated but a larger yield per harvested acre is
expected. The production forecast in the five major producing States is above last year except
in Montana.

Prospects on July 1 indicated a yield of 30.6 bushels per harvested acre compared with 22.5
in 1974 and 28.3 bushels in 1973. Acreage for harvest is estimated at 13.6 million acres,
down 5 percent from last year but 9 percent above 1973.

Crop development on July 1 was behind normal in the major producing States as cool damp
weather during June slowed growth. Only 7 percent of the crop in North Dakota, the leading
producer, was in the heading to flowering stage on July 1, well behind the normal 22 percent.
Normally 44 percent of the Minnesota crop is headed by July 1 but this year only one-fourth was
headed. Crop development in South Dakota, Montana, and Idaho was also well behind normal.

Torrential rains during late June caused severe flooding in the southern part of the Red
River Valley in North Dakota and Minnesota. Data for the current estimates were reported prior
to the flooding so resulting conditions are not reflected for the area in this report.
Counties affected by flooding accounted for about 30 percent of the North Dakota acreage and
20 percent of the Minnesota acreage. However, the extent of flooding varies considerably
amoung counties.

During the past 10 years, changes in production from the July 1 forecast to the final
estimate averaged 21 million bushels, ranging from 3 to 99 million bushels. During that period,
the July 1 forecast was above the final estimate 2 times by an average of 55 million bushels
and below 8 times by an average of 13 million bushels.

RYE: Production of rye for 1975 is forecast at 18.8 million bushels, down 2 percent from the 1974

crop of 19.3 million bushels. * Yield is expected to average 23.5 bushels, up 2.0 bushels
from last year but done 1.9 bushels from 1973, However, fewer acres for harvest more than offset
the increase in expected yield from a year ago.

ROW CROPS GENERALLY IN GOOD CONDITION

Corn in the North Central States is in good to excellent condition and development is con-
siderably ahead of 1974 and normal progress. Planting of this year's crop made excellent pro-
gress after mid-May and above normal precipitation and temperature pushed growth and development
in most areas. Moisture supplies were adequate to surplus in the major producing areas during
much of June. Heavy rains caused yellowing and drown-out of corn in low lying areas of some
States. Height of corn averaged considerably above last year and normal in many Corn Belt States.

In the North Central States, soybean growth and development were favored by continued above
normal temperatures. Planting was virtually complete by the end of June except for Kansas,
Michigan and Missouri and some second cropped acreage in other areas. Soybeans in Illinois were
in mostly good to excellent condition and by June 29th were progressing well although some late
stands were uneven. Average height of soybeans in Ohio was 12 inches and in Indiana 9 inches.
Soybean planting was 92 percent complete in the South Atlantic States and 88 percent finished in
the South Central Region. In Mississippi, planting was 85 percent done while 91 percent was
planted in Arkansas by June 29th; both continued ahead of the 1974 pace. Soybean stands and con-
dition in the South were mostly good although emergence was slow where soil moisture was short.
Development remained ahead of last year in nearly all Southern States.

Sorghum condition on July 1 was considered mostly good. Planting progressed slowly during
the month in several States, but adequate moisture in much of the major producing area favored
good emergence and growth. Heavy rains in several ‘areas of Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas necessi-
tated extensive replanting. In South Texas, sorghum was maturing rapidly and early harvest was
underway in the Lower Rio Grande Valley.

Cotton development showed improvement and range from fair to excellent condition, Weed and
insect controls were active and effective in most areas. Boll weevil and bollworm problems have
begun to develop in the Texas Blacklands and South Central, but farmers were taking control
measures. Much of the crop on July 1 was blooming from South Central Texas to the Lower Rio
Grande Valley. Growth and development was ahead of 1974 in Alabama but trailing in Mississippi.
Cool weather in Arizona, California and New Mexico slowed development and progress was behind
schedule.

SMALL GRAIN HARVEST SLOW

Rains and humid weather slowed small grain harvest during June in many areas of the Nation's:
midsection. Drier conditions late in the month allowed good advancement in the South Atlantic
States, but elsewhere combining was behind normal progress and last year's excellent pace.
Winter wheat development was behind normal going into June and intermittent rains during the
month limited harvesting progress in Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas. By June 29th, Texas wheat was
69 percent combined; Oklahoma 79 percent; and Kansas only 10 percent. Last year on that date
harvest was nearing completion in Texas and Oklahoma and was three-fourths finished in Kansas.
Slow development in Colorado and Nebraska allowed only limited harvest by July 1. Winter wheat
harvesting in Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio was off to a good start and by July 1 combining was
ahead of normal. Hot and humid weather pushed development of spring planted grains in the North
Central States, However, the lateness of seeding this year’s crops in the northern States of
this Region still left development much behind normal, The 1975 oat crop was only 5 percent
headed in North Dakota; 20 percent in Wisconsin; 37 percent in Minnesota and elsewhere in the
North Central States ranged up to virtually all headed in Ohio.

Yields in all major barley States are expected to average higher than the generally reduced
yields last year. Increases ranged from 14.5 bushels in North Dakota, 7 bushels in both Montana
and Minnesota, to 3 bushels in California.

Crop development as of early July was behind normal but moisture was generally favorable
in North Dakota, Minnesota, and Montana. In California, harvest was nearly complete in the
desert areas and moving along well in the Central Valleys. Adequate fall and spring rains plus
good temperatures resulted in excellent growth and development.

The heavy rains in North Dakota and Minnesota which caused flooding in the Red River Valley
occurred after the major survey period.’ The resulting conditions are not reflected in the yield
and production forecasts for those States. Counties affected by flooding account for about one-
third of the North Dakota barley acreage and nearly one-fourth of the Minnesota acreage. How-
ever, the extent of flooding varies considerably among the counties.

Changes between the July 1 forecast and final production estimates have averaged 19.5 mil-
lion bushels for the past 10 years, ranging from 0,8 million to 48.7 million bushels.

During those 10 years, the July 1 forecast has been above the final 3 times by an average
of 22,3 million bushels and below 7 times by an average of 18.3 million bushels.

ALL WHEAT: Production of all wheat is forecast at a record 2,187 million bushels, 22 percent
more than last year’s record crop and 28 percent above the 1973 crop.

Acreage of all wheat for harvest, at 69 million acres, is 5 percent above last year and 28
percent above 1973. If realized this will be the largest area harvested since 1952 when nearly
71 million acres were harvested. The indicated yield of 31.7 bushels per acre is above the
1974 average of 27.4 and equals the 1973 average,

Changes between the July 1 forecast and final estimates have averaged 50 million bushels
during the past decade - ranging from 3 million to 132 million bushels. In 6 of the ten years,
the July 1 forecast was above the final estimate by an average of 57 million and 4 times it was
below an an average of 39 million bushels.

WINTER WHEAT: Winter wheat production is forecast at a record high 1,637 million bushels, 18

percent above the previous record crop produced last year and 29 percent above
1973. The increase over last year is the result of a larger area for harvest and better yields.
If realized, this will be the fifth consecutive yearly increase in production, The 1 percent
increase over the forecast published June 10 is the result of a small upward adjustment in acres
for harvest and a slight increase in expected average yield.

Yield per harvested acre is expected to average 32.2 bushels, up from the relatively low
29.5 bushel average last year, but below the 1973 crop average of 33,1 bushels.

Current winter wheat yield prospects are equal to or above last month in all major produc-
ing States except Oklahoma and Kansas where expected average yield is off by 1 and 2 bushels,
respectively. Excessive rain and weather damage at harvest time lowered prospects in these two

States. Decreases were also registered in all sovtheastern States as excessive moisture was also
a problem.

Harvest and maturity of the Nation's 1975 winter wheat crop were lagging behind normal on
July 1 but prospects remained bright for a good crop, A late maturing crop plus rain and humid
weather delayed small grain harvest over much of the Nation's midsection during June. This

resulted in only 29 percent of the U. S. crop being harvested by July 1, trailing last year's
progress of 51 percent and normal of 40 percent,

Changes in production between the July 1 forecasts and final estimates of production after
harvest is complete have averaged 37 million bushels during the past 10 years, ranging from 2
million to 80 million bushels. The July 1 forecast was above the final estimate 8 of the 10
years by an average of 34 million bushels and below 2 tines by an average of 51 million bushels.

Summer potato production is forecast at 21.8 million cwt., 13 percent below the
1974 crop of 25.2 million cwt.

Serious flooding occurred in the central and lower
Red River Valley areas of North Dakota and Minnesota as
the result of severe thunderstorms on June 29. At the
time information was obtained for this report, the extent
of losses in acreage and yield was not known. Therefore,
this report generally reflects yield and production
expected prior to flooding. From a National standpoint,
important acreages of durum, other spring wheat, sugar—
beets, barley and flaxseed are produced in the counties
subjected to serious flooding. The Crop Production

APPLES: The initial 1975 forecast of commercial apple production is a record 7,3 billion pounds

~ (173.4 million 42-pound equivalent) exceeding the previous high of 6.7 billion pounds in
1969. This harvest would be 13 percent more than last year and 17 percent above the quantity
utilized in 1973. Increases from last year are anticipated in all regions,

In the Eastern States total production is expected to reach 3,2 billion pounds, up 16 per-
cent from last year's utilized production, Apple trees over-wintered well with no significant
damage. With favorable growing conditions thus far, expectations are for 15 percent more apples
in New England, 19 percent more in New York, and a 15 percent increase in Pennsylvania. All
other States in this region show similar percentage increases or are unchanged from 1974,

Production in the Central States at 1.3 billion pounds will be up 17 percent from last year's
utilized crop. Trees remained dormant in this region into late April when warm weather and spring
rains hastened bloom and aided sizing of fruit. Michigan's forecast at 720 million pounds is
7 percent above the moderate size crop of 1974. Prospects are bright in all States except
Minnesota, which expects a slightly smaller crop.

In the Western States, total apple production is estimated at 2.8 billion pounds, 8 percent
above 1974, A record crop of 1.9 billion pounds is anticipated in Washington--the leading apple
State. Although full bloom was 1-2 weeks late, Red Delicious show excellent sets while Goldens
are off some from last year, Recent weather has been excellent for apple sizing and development.
In California 5 percent more apples are anticipated. Apple maturity is about 2 weeks behind
normal, and the harvest of Gravensteins from Sonoma County is not expected until early August.
Colorado, Idaho, New Mexico, and Utah expect increases from last year's freeze-damaged crops. The
Oregon production outlook is dow 6 percent from 1974 due chiefly to a heavy drop in the Milton—
Freewater area.

PEACHES: U. S, peach production is forecast at 2,965 million pounds, up 1 percent from June 1

and 3 percent above the 1974 utilized crop. Excluding California's clingstone peaches
(used mostly for canning), the remaining production of 1,445 million pounds is up 13 percent
from last year.

California's clingstone crop at 1,520 million pounds is unchanged from the special June 23
forecast but 5 percent below the 1974 harvest of 1,598 million pounds, Crop development is about
2 weeks later than normal and thinning is now nearing completion. Harvest of early varieties
is expected to commence about July 18, The California freestone forecast at 400 million pounds
is off 12 percent from 1974, Harvest was gaining momentum by July 1. Fruit packed for fresh
market is of high quality although cullage is high due to split pits and slab-sided fruit.

The South Carolina peach crop at 215 million pounds is unchanged from June 1 and last year.
Peach harvest is in full swing with size and quality generally good. Pennsylvania, Colorado
and Michigan peach prospects declined from June 1 while Illinois, North Carolina and West
Virginia increased and the other States showed no change. In Pennsylvania, a heavy June drop
and some severe hail storms reduced crop potential. Weather in Michigan hindered development.
Harvest of early varieties is getting underway in all States and will be active in July.

PEARS: Total pear production in the U. S. is forecast at 750,750 tons, a 2 percent increase

over last year's utilized crop of 736,240 tons. Bartlett pear production in Washington,
Oregon, and California is now forecast at 518,000 tons, down 2 percent from June 1 but 5 percent
above 1974, An above normal June drop in California and cool weather in Oregon hindered sizing
and reduced prospects. Production of pears other than Bartletts in the Pacific Coast States is
initially forecast at 179,500 tons, down 12 percent from last year. Winter pear harvest de-
creases are anticipated in all three States, chiefly due to poor pollination.

The ouclook in other States is for more tonnage with New York and Michigan expecting 43

percent and 52 percent increases, respectively, Pear trees over-wintered well, and favorable
spring growing conditions aided fruit development.

CROP PRODUCTION, JULY 1975 A-12 CROP REPORTING BOARD, SRS, USDA



Yields are expected to be higher than in 1974 throughout the North Central and South Central
States except for Wisconsin. Of the 29 States estimating rye, 19 expect an increase, 7 expect a
decrease and 3 expect no change from 1974.

Development of the rye crop in North Dakota is later than normal with most of the crop
heading to dough stage as of July 1. The 1975 rye crop is also later than normal in Minnesota
and South Dakota. As of July 1, the crop in Minnesota was 90 percent headed compared with the
five-year average of 96 percent. In South Dakota only 21 percent of the crop was turning color
compared with 67 percent last year and 60 percent normally.

During the past decade, changes in production from the July 1 forecast to the final estimate
have averaged 1.5 million bushels, ranging from 0.5 million to 2.7 million bushels. During those
10 years, the July 1 forecast has been above the final estimate 6 times by an average of 1.4
million bushels and below 4 times by an average of 1.6 million bushels.

POTATOES: The first forecast of summer potato production for 1975 at 21.8 million cwt., is 13

percent below the 25.2 million cwt. harvested in 1974 but 2 percent above 1973 pro-
duction, All but the smaller producting States of Illinois, Maryland, Netraske, New Mexico and
Tennessee show declines in production from last year, Acres for harvest in 1975 are estimated at
119,800, 9 percent below the 132,100 acres harvested in 1974, The average yield per acre is
forecast at 182 cut. compared with 191 ewt. in 1974 and 172 ewt. in 1973.

Harvest in Alabama is underway, Earlier wet weather caused some reduced stands. The
California crop is one to two weeks later than normal and digging is not expected until mid-July
in the major Kemet district of Riverside County. Harvest in the San Joaquin and Santa Maria -
areas will follow in late July and mid-August. Ccol weather in Colorado has slowed maturity, but
the crop is in excellent condition. Fields remain in good condition in Michigan despite high
temperatures and wet soil condition. In Minnesota, rainfall in the twin cities summer crop area
stimulated crop development. Fields are blooming and production prospects are very good. Most
fields in New Jersey have good stands and vine growth. Limited harvest is underway but signifi-
caat volume is not expected until the last half of July. Fields are in good condition in
New Mexico. Harvest is expected the last’half of August.

Harvest in the High Plains of Texas will get underway in the Muleshoe area the first week of
July, with Hereford beginning around July 10. Fields made excellent progress in most areas dur-
ing June. Hot dry weather in Virginia during the growing season resulted in poor plant develop-
ment and small sizes. Harvest got underway the last half of June and is making rapid progress.

FLUE-CURED TOBACCO: Flue~cured tobacco production is forecast at 1,396 million pounds, up 12

percent from the 1974 output of 1,241 million pounds and the largest crop
produced since 1962. The larger prospective production reflects an increase in acreage for
harvest at 717,600 acres, 16 percent above the 616,330 acres a year earlier.

Dry weather has prevailed over most of the types 11 and 12 areas since mid-June. Lack of
moisture has resulted in irrigation facilities being utilized where available. In North Carolina,
the non-irrigated crop is wilting and burning, Moisture is needed to maintain average yields.
Growth of the crop in Georgia was slowed by heavy spring rains but showed considerable improvement
during June, Harvest is in progress except for type 11, Marketing of the crop was scheduled to
begin on July 8 in Florida and Georgia, one week earlier than last year.

PASTURE AND RANGE FEED: On July 1, the condition of pasture and range feed was 88 percent for
“the 48 contiguous States, This is 6 points above a year ago and 5
points above the 1964-73 average for this date.

Conditions across the nation were predominantly good to excellent with the exception of
some scattered areas. An area of southeastern Colorado and northeastern New Mexico and also
northeastern North Carolina classified conditions as very poor. A pocket of severe drought and
very poor conditions prevailed in southwest Arizona.

CROP PRODUCTION, JULY 1975 a-11 CROP REPORTING BOARD, SRS, USDA



CORN FOR GRAIN: Production of corn for grain is forecast at a record 6,046 million bushels.
‘This first forecast by the Crop Reporting Service for the 1975 season is 30°
percent above the poor crop last year and 7 percent’ above 1973, the previous record. Increased
acreage expected to be harvested for grain and favorable yield prospects contribute to this

potential record.

Prospects on July 1 indicate a yield per acre of 90.3 bushels compared with 71.3 bushels
last year, 91.2 bushels in 1973, and the record of 97.1 bushels set in 1972.

Much of the Nation's corn crop was in good to excellent condition at the end of June with
growing conditions favorable for rapid growth. Soil moisture was generally adequate to surplus
over much of the Corn Belt as hot, humid weather promoted development ahead of normal. Height
of corn plants at the end of June was well ahead of last year and normal with average height
ranging from 45 inches in Illinois to 16 inches in South Dakota. Growth in Illinois was more
than double the 1974 progress and plants averaged 20 inches taller than normal. Iowa corn
averaged 30 inches high and the most advanced averaged 42 inches. Corn in the Southern States
was in fair to good condition. Dry conditions in Kentucky, North Carolina, Tennessee, and
Virginia late in the month were causing stress; early corn in some areas was already hurt. About
5% of the corn in Virginia was silked and 43% in Alabama was tasseling. Corn was advancing
favorably in Kentucky where 9% of the crop was tasseled; in Tennessee 21% was silked. Corn
growth in some of the Western States was behind normal due to late planting. The Colorado crop
was 10 days to two weeks behind normal.

The heavy rains in North Dakota and Minnesota which caused flooding in the Red River Valley
occurred after the major survey period. The resulting conditions are not reflected in the
forecast for those States. The counties affected account for about 95 percent of the acres for
grain normally harvested in North Dakota but oly 2 percent in Minnesota. However, the extent
of flooding varies considerably among the counties.

QATS: Production of oats is forecast at 731 million bushels, 18 percent more than 1974 and 10

percent above 1973. Yield per harvested acre is expected to average 52.7 bushels, up
6.1 bushels from 1974 but well below the record yield of 55.9 bushels in 1971, The increased
output results from both higher yields and a larger acreage intended for grain.

Oats seeding was completed ahead of normal in Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio but was far
behind normal in all other North Central States. However, once able to get in the fields,
farmers made rapid headway and seeding was completed near the normal time. Despite the late
start, crop development in North Central States is good to excellent, Oat prospects in Minnesota
are very good except in some south central and southeastern counties, despite the late develop-
ment. Normally one-half of the oat crop is heading by July 1 compared with two-fifths this
year, Timely rains during June in South Dakota resulted in a favorable crop prospect. Stands
in Iowa are good and heads appear to be well filled. Harvest is progressing about normally in
the Southern States.

The heavy raing in North Dakota and Minnesota which caused flooding in the Red River Valley
occurred after the major survey period. The resulting conditions are not reflected in the yield
and production forecasts for those States. Counties affected by flooding accounted for about
20 percent of the North Dakota acreage and only 5 percent of the Minnesota acreage, However,
the extent of flooding varies considerably among the counties. Historically, oats planted in
these areas are intended for harvest as grain.

During the past decade, changes in production between the July 1 forecast and the final
estimate have averaged 46 million bushels, ranging from 20 to 94 million bushels. The July 1
forecast has been above the final estimate 5 times by an average of 54 million bushels and
below 5 times by an average 38 millton bushels.

BARLEY: Barley production is forecast at 395 million bushels in 1975, up 28 percent from 1974

but 6 percent below the 1973 crop. This output results from 6 percent more acres for
harvest and a yield expected to average 44.8 bushels, 7.6 bushels above 1974 and 4.5 bushels
above 1973.

JUNE WEATHER

Temperatures during June averaged within 2 degrees of normal in most areas. Much
of the southern and central Great Plains, Rocky Mountain States, and the Appalachians
were cooler than normal. The western tier of States and much of the major corn and
soybean producing . areas were warmer than usual. The month began with trends toward
warming in the West and cooling in the East. The South was near normal all week. The
second week of June was much cooler than normal in most areas except for the far West,
limiting crop development. Several record low temperatures were measured throughout
the week. Unusually warm temperatures were experienced along the East as readings
climbed well into the 90's. During the last week of spring, cool air hovered over the
Rocky Mountains and pushed into the High Plains. However, temperatures averaged well
above normal in the eastern half of the Nation with the North Central States averaging
4 to 9 degrees above normal, Temperatures continued above normal in the Corn Belt and
Northeast during the last week of June, but were cooler than normal over the remainder
of the Country.

The heaviest precipitation for the month fell in southwest Mississippi, southeast
Louisiana, and the southern end of the Red River Valley along with surrounding counties
in North Dakota and Minnesota where 8 to 12 inches fell. The New Orleans area received
over 12 inches, the wettest June on record. Over 8 inches also fell in parts of
Florida, Kansas, Missouri, and central Minnesota. In contrast, no rainfall was record-
ed over most of Arizona, southern California, New Mexico, and southern Nevada. Amounts
were generally above normal over most of the:Great Plains and the Corn Belt. Excep~
tions included northern Missouri, eastern Iowa, southern Illinois and Indiana and
central Ohio. Parts of the Carolinas, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Virginia were very dry.
The first half of June included considerable violent weather. Tornados, high wind and
hail were reported from Montana to Texas and eastward to Florida and New England during
the first week. Limited tornado activity along with wind, hail, and flash flooding
occurred in Nebraska and Kansas on the 2nd. Wind and hail were common in the Northern
Plains and Montana on the 3rd. Thunderstorms raged along the Atlantic Coast on the 6th
and heavy thunderstorms continued through the week over the Plains, The violent
weather continued into the second week. Seventeen inches of rain fell at Sourlake,
Texas in a matter of a few hours on the 9th. In contrast, snow fell in the Colorado
Mountains. Friday, the 13th, brought tornados to Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Minnesota,
Oklahoma, and Wisconsin. Typical of late spring, thunderstorms with associated severe
weather were rampant from the Plains to the Fast Coast during the 3rd week.

Tornados and hail were reported in 8 States on the 17th. Serious agriculture
flooding occurred in east central Kansas. By the 18th, some flooding had occurred
from the foothills of the Rockies to the Missouri Valley and south to Kansas and
Missouri. Precipitation was highly variable during the closing week of the month as
scattered thunderstorms dropped locally heavy amounts, Southeastern North Dakota and
adjacent areas in Minnesota had severe weather on the 28th with tornados, high winds
and hail. The severe weather continued over the weekend with serious flooding. Crop
damage was severe in some areas.

GRAPES: A record grape crop of 4:2 million tons is in prospect this year in California. This

is 12 percent above last year and 6-percent above the previous record set in 1965. The
record is due to increased acreage of wine varieties as yield per acre is expected to be below
last year. The crop is currently about two weeks behind normal in maturity over most of the
State. Harvest of table grape varieties is expected to begin during July in the Southern
California area and late July in the San Joaquin Valley. Harvest of Thompson Seedless grapes
for raisins is not expected until early September.

SWEET CHERRIES: The final 1975 forecast of sweet cherries at 148,850 tons is up 4 percent from

last year, but 3 percent below 1973. Pacific Coast States now anticipate a
crop of 106,000 tons, slightly below the 106,500 tons utilized last year. The California har-
vest is now complete. High winds during the ripening period caused bruising, scarring, and
discoloration, Bings suffered less damage than other earlier varieties. Sizes were smaller
than expected. All areas in Oregon except Union County are now picking the early crop.
Prospects have been reduced due to cherry splitting caused by rainy weather in late June. In
Washington, picking got underway the last week of June. Mild June weather enhanced rapid cherry
development. The outlook in other Western States is not as favorable. The Idaho and Utah crops
will be down considerably as a result of cool weather during bloom and hail and high winds in
Utah during June. °

Production in the Great Lakes States of Michigan, New York, and Pennsylvania is expected
to reach 36,150 tons compared with 27,900 tons utilized in 1974, Harvest began in southwest
Michigan in late June and is now underway in the Hudson Valley of New York.

TART CHERRIES: The production of tart cherries is placed at 155,080 tons, 17 percent above the

1974 utilized crop of 132,300 tons. The Great Lakes States forecast made in
mid-June at 144,780 tons is up 18 percent from last year. Michigan's estimate at 115,000 tons
is 12 percent above the 1974 crop of 103,000 tons.

APRICOTS: The U.S, apricot crop is now forecast at 137,900 tons, 13 percent below the June 1

forecast but 47 percent more than last year's utilized production, Lower crop
prospects this month are due to a reduced potential in California where the fruit has not sized
as well as expected earlier. Quality of the fruit harvested to date has been only fair except in
the Hollister and Los Bonos areas where quality and size are about normal, In "ashington, the
fruit is sizing well and crop prospects remain good.

NECTARINES: The California nectarine forecast of 100,000 tons is down 5 percent from June 1.
Some varieties have sustained heavy droppage and fruit sizes have been small. Split

pits have been the major problem affecting quality. There has also been some problems with mis-
shapen fruit.

PRUNES AND PLUMS: The California prune crop of 145,000 tons is unchanged from last month's fore~

cast and continues to develop well despite cool weather. Fruit droppage is
normal for this time of the year, Harvest of California's plum crop at 115,000 tons, unchanged
from last month, continues to be running later than normal. Santa Rosa plums are currently being
picked. Quality has not been up to previous years standards due to wind scarring. Sizes have
been only fair.

ALMONDS: California almond production is now forecast at 140,000 tons in-shell (165 million

pounds of meats), down 3 percent from lasttonth's forecast. This year's crop is down
27 percent from last year's record output, Crop condition is generally good. The nuts are sizing
well, with sizes larger than last year offsetting a lighter set this year.

WALNUTS: A record walnut crop of 191,200 tons is forecast this year--22 percent more than last

year and 9 percent above the previous record set in 1973. The nut set is good in all
areas of California, Hartley and Eureka varieties which account for about 40 percent of the
California acreage have their best crop ever while production of other varieties is expected to
be near the 1973 level, :
