ORANGES: The U.S. all orange crop is forecast at 208 million boxes for the

1988-89 season, down 1 percent from the March 1 forecast, but 4
percent above the 1987-88 season. The Florida all orange forecast is 144
million boxes, down 1 percent from last month but 5 percent greater than last
season. Production for early and mid-season oranges in Florida, at 85.3
million boxes, is 2 percent less than last month but 9 percent above the
1987-88 crop. Harvest is virtually complete. The Florida Valencia forecast,
at 59.0 million boxes, remains unchanged from last month but is 1 percent less
than the 1987-88 season. The Valencia harvest in Florida is 12 percent
complete. The forecast for California Navels, at 35.0 million boxes, is
unchanged from March 1 but 11 percent greater than 1987-88, As of April 1, 70
percent of California's Navel crop had been harvested. California's Valencia
forecast is 25.0 million boxes, down 4 percent from last month and 8 percent
less than the 1987-88 crop year. Harvest is just beginning.

The Arizona all orange crop is expected to be 1.55 million boxes, down 22
percent from the January 1 forecast and 14 percent less than last season.
Arizona's harvest is half complete. The all orange estimate for Texas as of
April 1 is 2.90 miltion boxes, unchanged from the March 7? forecast, but a
third above last season. Harvest in Texas is 92 percent complete.

The changes in U.S. all orange production between the April 1 forecast and
final production average 4.88 million boxes over the past ten seasons ranging
from a low of 200 thousand boxes in 1984-85 to a high of 12.3 million boxes in
the 1981-82 freeze damaged season.

FLORIDA FROZEN CONCENTRATED JUICE YIELD: The 1988-89 Florida all orange frozen

concentrate juice yield forecast has
been increased to 1.53 gallons per box of 42.0 degrees Brix equivalent, up
from last month's projection of 1.52 gallons per box. This increase is due to
the continued gains in the pounds of solids per box.

The forecast is projected to estimate the final yield as reported by the
Florida Citrus Processors Association.

CITRUS HARVEST AND UTILIZATION: By April 1, 119 million boxes of oranges were

harvested or 57 percent of the U.S. crop, com-
pared with 109 million baxes or 55 percent on April 1, 1988. Processors had
used 77 percent of the oranges harvested by April 1, 1989 compared with 73
percent used to April 1 a year earlier,

The grapefruit harvest was 69 percent complete by April 1 compared with 70
percent on the same date last year. Processors had used 52 percent of the
total crop harvested by April 1, 1989, compared with 55 percent a year earlier.

Lemon harvest on April 1 was 60 percent complete compared with 67 percent
on the same date last season. Processors have utilized 44 percent of the crop
compared with 47 percent by April ? last year.

Earliest fields in the Hastings, Florida area were devastated by frost
damage in late February, cutting total production 18 percent from last year.
Some fields were replanted, others abandoned. Harvest is expected to be 3-4
weeks late, but should be active in May.

Harvest will be delayed in other areas of the South because of frost on
early fields. Alabama potatoes will head to market about mid-May. Early
fields were frosted back but appear to have recovered well. Planting in North
Carolina is slow, with only 36 percent in the ground by April 1. Normally,
planting is about 90 percent finished by that date. The cold weather in Texas
slowed growth in the Rio Grande Valley, and delayed planting in the
Knox-Haskel] area. Planting in California is finished. Weather conditions
are currently favorable, but harvest will be delayed since early fields were
damaged by frost.

SUMMER POTATOES, 1988 REVISED: The summer potato crop turned out 20.3 million

cwt of potatoes in 1988, a drop of 11 percent
from 1987. Acreage harvested was 92.4 thousand acres, down 8 percent from
1987 and the average yield of 220 cwt per acre was down 3 percent.

PEANUTS, 1988 REVISED: Peanut production in crop year 1988 totaled 3.98 bil-

lion pounds, 10 percent above the 1987 crop and 8 per-
cent above 1986. Growers planted 1.66 million acres and harvested 1.63
million acres. Planted area increased 6 percent from 1987 and harvested area
was up 5 percent. Yield averaged 2,445 pounds per acre, an increase of 106
pounds from the previous year and a 38 pound increase from 1986.

Production in the Southeastern States (Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and
South Carolina) totaled 2.62 billion pounds in 1988 - a 15 percent increase
from 1987. Planted and harvested area were both up 8 percent from 1987.
Yield averaged 2,562 pounds per acre in the region, 144 pounds above 1987.

Virginia and North Carolina production totaled 684 million pounds, an 8
percent increase from 1987 for the region. Planted and harvested acreage were
up 2 percent and 3 percent, respectively, from the last year. Average yield,
at 2,803 pounds per acre, increased 134 pounds from 1987.

Southwestern growers (New Mexico, Oklahoma, and Texas) produced 673 million
pounds in 1988, a 3 percent decrease from 1987. Although planted area for the
region increased by 2 percent from 1987, the harvested area decreased by 1
percent. Average yield, at 1,868 pounds, was 51 pounds below the 1987 average.

TANGELOS: The Florida tangelo crop, excluding K-early citrus fruit, is fore-
cast at 3.80 million boxes, unchanged from last month but down 10
percent from last season's utilized production.

TEMPLES: The Florida temple forecast, at 3.80 million boxes, is unchanged from
-March 1 but 7 percent greater than last season's crop. Harvest is 93
percent complete.

FLORIDA CITRUS: Most of this State's trees are in very good condition despite

the current dry conditions. Rain during March has been less
than normal in all growing Jocations. Low volume irrigation is being used in
the majority of groves. This year's bloom cycle progressed in varying degrees
with all groves showing swelling buds up to open flowers and a smal? amount of
fruit set. The warm weather and irrigation have helped produce an abundance
of new growth on trees of all ages. Harvest of early and mid-season oranges
was virtually over by the end of the month. Movement of Valencia oranges is
increasing as there is good fresh demand. Some of the young tree late orange
crop is going directly to processing since the fruit has very good
acid-to-solids ratios. Grapefruit were harvested at record tevels for a
single month during March. Temple and Honey tangerine movement slowed by the
end of March as supplies were running low. Caretakers were busy cleaning
groves after hedging and topping operations.

TEXAS CITRUS: Harvest of the 1988-89 crop is winding down rapidly in the

Valley, with many sheds now closed. Most groves are in good
condition under steady irrigation because of dry conditions. Fruit sets for
next season look good in most groves. Normal grove activities continued
without delay.

PAPAYAS: Hawaii's fresh papaya production is estimated at 4.80 million pounds

in April, up 1) percent from April 1988. Fresh output is expected
to drop to 4.60 million pounds in May before increasing back to the April
level of 4.80 mitlion pounds in June. Projected July production is expected
to rise seasonally to 5.50 million pounds.

Fresh production in March is forecast at 5.17 million pounds, up 19 percent
from February and 67 percent above March a year ago.

March was ushered in by rainy, windy weather which persisted for most of
the first week. By the second week, however, the stormy conditions were
replaced by sunshine, increasing temperatures, and scattered showers, all
favorable for papaya production. Harvesting activities increased seasonally
throughout the month.

March papaya acreage totaled 4,205 acres, down 5 percent from February but
3 percent higher than a year earlier. Harvested area in March totaled 2,445
acres, 3 percent below February but 11 percent higher than February 1988.

SPRING POTATOES: Spring potato production is forecast at 20.4 million cwt this

year, 2 percent above last year and 15 percent above two
years ago. Area for harvest is estimated at 85.3 thousand acres, a gain of 8
percent over last year; while the average expected yield of 240 cwt per acre
is down 5 percent.

MARCH WEATHER SUMMARY

A major, tate-season winter storm came ashore in the Pacific Northwest and
spread winter weather across much of the Nation during the first of the
month. The storm triggered severe thunderstorms across the Southeast,
freezing rain from the mid-section of the country to the mid Atlantic coast,
and heavy snow from Texas to the middle Mississippi Valtey and the central
Appalachians. Frigid air behind the storm dropped temperatures below zero in
the northern and central Plains. The steady flow of moisture from the Pacific
brought above normal precipitation into the northwestern States. During the
latter part of the month, warm moist air from the Gulf of Mexico and slow
moving frontal systems caused severe weather and heavy rain from the southern
Plains to the middle and southern Atlantic Coast States. Much needed rain
fell over winter wheat in the central Plains, while torrential rain caused
flooding in northeastern Texas. Generally dry conditions again prevailed in
the northern Corn Belt, Southwest, and southeastern Florida, which received
the least amount of rainfall on record for the September to March period. The
abnormally warm weather in the West spread over much of the United States at
month's end and melted much of the snow cover across the northern States.
(Prepared by the Joint USDA/NOAA Agricultural Weather Facility.)

MARCH FIELDWORK

Rain slowed fieldwork in the Delta and Southeast during most of March.
Snow and muddy field conditions limited fieldwork to spreading fertilizer in
the northern Great Plains and Corn Belt early in the month. By the end of
March, spring small grain seedings and land preparation for spring planting
were underway in the Great Plains and western Corn Belt.

Cotton planting was underway in Texas in early March. By the end of
March, planting was 9 percent (%) complete, 1 percentage point ahead of the
5-year average. Planting began in Arizona and Catifornia about mid-month. By
the end of the month, planting was 35% complete in Arizona. As March began,
corn planting was underway in Arizona, Florida, and Texas and just beginning
in Mississippi. By mid-month, corn planting was active in the Delta and
Southeast as weather permitted. Planting lagged behind normal in portions of
the Delta and Southeast at the end of the month. Planting began in Kansas the
last week of March. As March began, sorghum planting was underway in Texas.
By the end of the month, planting was 42% finished, 3 points behind normal.
Planting was just beginning in Alabama. Rice planting began in Louisiana,
Mississippi, and Texas about mid-month. Rain slowed planting in Louisiana and
Mississippi. Tobacco bed preparation and seeding were active during March as
weather permitted. Tobacco transplanting was underway by mid-month in Georgia

and Florida.

WINTER WHEAT

Early in March, warmer temperatures improved growth in the central and
southern Great Plains. Snow cover was mostly adequate in the northern
Plains. Kansas stil] needed moisture. About mid-month, heading began in the
Texas Coastal Bend. February freeze damage became evident as fields broke
dormancy in Kansas. Near month's end, rains- had improved conditions in the
central and southern Plains while powdery mildew and rust problems were seen
in portions of the Delta. Oregon and Washington producers began reseeding
freeze damaged fields. In the 17 States reporting winter wheat conditions as
of April 2, an aggregate 31 percent of the acreage rated very poor to poor, 37
percent fair and 32 percent good to excellent.
