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 1962-81 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 is 1.5 percent.
This means that chances are 2 out of 3 that the current production forecast of 12.1 million bales
will not be above or below the final estimate by more than 1.5 percent or approximately 180 thou-
sand bales. Chances are 9 out of 10 (90 percent confidence level) that the difference wil] not
exceed 2.6 percent or approximately 310 thousand bates.

Differences between the December 1 forecast and the final estimate during the past 10 years
have averaged 168 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.

BURLEY TOBACCO: Production forecast at 789 million pounds (358 thousand metric tons), 8 percent
above last year--new record high. Production up all States except Virginia.
Yield per acre 2358 pounds compared with 2203 pounds in 1981.

Kentucky and Tennessee's production up 9 and 4 percent, respectively, from previous year.
Stripping active with increased moisture.

Burley markets opened November 17--a week ahead of normal.

PECANS: U.S. production forecast at 199 million pounds (90.4 thousand metric tons), 5 per-

cent below October 1, 41 percent jess than 1981. Arkansas, Georgia, Oklahoma, South
Carolina, Texas decreased estimates from October 1, but Alabama increased. Harvest about
three-fourths complete in Georgia by December 1.

PAPAYAS: Hawaii fresh production forecast at 3.20 million pounds {1450 metric tons) for
December, down 14 percent from November, 10 percent less than year earlier. Fresh

Production expected to increase in January to 3.50 million pounds (1590 metric tons). An 11

percent decrease from previous month forecast for February, drop of 6 percent expected in March.

Hurricane Iwa on November 23 caused extensive damage to papaya fields on Kauai, Oahu
islands, Hurricane-force winds toppled roughly 60 percent all bearing trees on Kauai island.
Prior to Hurricane, Kauai accounted for 11 percent of total acreage and approximately 6 percent
of fresh production. Oahu island also hard hit by storm. Last month Oahu accounted for 3
percent of total acreage and 4 percent fresh production. Damage figures preliminary pending
comprehensive survey scheduled begin in mid-December. Major growing area of Hawaii island
escaped without damage.

November fresh production estimated 3.70 million pounds (1680 metric tons), down 3 percent
from October, 23 percent less than same month year earlier. Farmers harvested 2165 acres (880
hectares) in November, up 1 percent from October, but down 3 percent from year ago.

ORANGES: U.S. production forecast at 224 million boxes (8.63 million metric tons), up 4

percent from October 1 and 26 percent above last season, but 9 percent less than
1980-81. Forecast of all oranges in Florida 147 million boxes, up 3 percent from October 1, 17
percent above last season's freeze-damaged crop. Early and mid-season varieties in Florida 74.0
million boxes, 3 percent above the previous forecast -- the same as last season. Valencia
forecast at 73.0 million boxes, up 3 percent from October 1, 41 percent above last season.

California crop forecast at record high 67.0 million boxes, up 6 percent from October 1, 56
percent more than last season, 3 percent above previous record in 1980-81. Navel crop at record
39.0 million boxes, up 5 percent from October 1, 1 percent more than previous record of
1980-81. Valencia forecast for California at record 28.0 million boxes, up 8 percent from
October 1, 75 percent greater than last season.

California production 6 percent below 198]. Crop planted late, seasonal temperatures below
average, reducing yields, and greater abandonment from heavy rainstorms.

Nebraska production down 33 percent. Hail, rust, blight and white mold reduced yields 400

Arizona all_orange forecast 3.30 million boxes, unchanged from October, 8 percent more than
last season. Texas crop -- 6.20 million boxes, 4 percent above 1981-82. Harvest of early
oranges gained momentum last month in all States.

Changes in U.S. production between December 1 forecast and final production have averaged
15.9 mitlion boxes over past ten seasons, ranging from 300 thousand boxes in 1977-78 to 44.1
million boxes in 1981-82. Freeze that occurred in Florida during January 1982 was major cause
for 44.1 million box difference between December 1, 1981 and final estimate.

FLORIDA FROZEN CONCENTRATED JUICE YIELD: The 1982-83 Florida Frozen Concentrated Juice Yield
for all oranges projected at 1.37 gallons per box at
42.0 degree brix equivalent. This compares with freeze shortened 1981-82 crop which had final
yield of 1.27832 gallons per 90 pound box at 42.0 degree brix equivalent.

GRAPEFRUIT: Excluding California's “other areas" forecast is 64.3 million boxes (2.38 million

metric tons), fractionally above November forecast, but 5 percent less than last
season. First forecast for California's “other areas" April 1. Production for 1981-82 “other
areas" crop 3.20 million boxes. Florida all grapefruit forecast at 44.0 million boxes --
unchanged from October 1, but 9 percent less than last season. Large fruit and early maturity

growers took advantage of dry, open weather. Defotiation active, but some producers waiting for
hard freeze, which finally occurred near end of November. Wet conditions during month delayed
picking in Southwest. By month's end, 71 percent of acreage harvested, trailing average of 75
percent. Harvest again underway in Southwest as fields dried.

WINTER WHEAT SEEDING NEAR COMPLETION

By end of November, only minor acreages of winter wheat remained to be seeded across South.
California planting reached 50 percent complete. Most of Great Plains crop germinated and
emerged. More moisture needed in southern Plains for good growth, development. Some reseeding
necessary in Texas due to dryness. General showers from Kansas southward during last week in
month improved stands--more needed. Kansas wheat in good to excellent condition all areas
except southwestern and south central regions where poor to fair conditions resulted from
dryness. Texas crop conditions from poor to good. Some frost damage and wind burn evident in
portions of central Texas and Low Plains. Montana's wheat in good condition--only light wind
damage.

COTTON: United States production forecast at 12.1 million 480-pound net weight bales, 1

percent above last month, 23 percent below 198]. Upland totaled 12.0 million bales,
American-Pima; 111 thousand. Growers to harvest 9.41 million acres (3.81 million hectares) of
Upland, 72.7 thousand acres (29.4 thousand hectares) American-Pima. Upland yield forecast at
record 612 pounds, American-Pima at 731 pounds.

Southeastern States production estimated at 925 thousand bales, up 1 percent from November
1, up 10 percent from last year. Harvest completion delayed by rains after mid-November.

Delta growers will harvest 3.79 million bales, up 1 percent from last month, 12 percent
above 1981. Harvest delayed by rains, wet fields. Mostly second picking remaining for
harvest. Rains caused some yield loss, greatest effect was lowering of grade.

Texas and Oklahoma Upland crop forecast at 2.88 million bales, up 4 percent from last month,
down 53 percent from last year. Harvest about two-thirds finished. Progress about average in
Texas, about one to two weeks behind normal in Oklahoma.

Western States expect production of 4.38 million bales, unchanged from last month, down 16
Percent from last year. Harvest delayed by rains that caused some yield loss but mostly lower
quality. Heavy rains in Arizona may reduce the acreage gleaned after harvest.

Bureau of the Census reports 8,825,792 running bales ginned prior to December 1, 1982. The
comparable 3981 and 1980 totals were 10,156,076 bales and 7,840,476 bales, respectively.

COTTONSEED: Production, based on three-year average lint-seed ratio, forecast at 4.81 million
tons (4.37 million metric tons), compared with 6.40 million tons (5.80 million
metric tons) in 1981.

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 smali 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 all 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.

NOVEMBER WEATHER SUMMARY

November was wet in much of Nation. Above-normal precipitation fell over most of southern
Plains and eastern portion northern Plains, but Jarge portion winter wheatlands in central
Plains very short on moisture. Ample moisture eastward through Appalachians, but many areas
along east coast had less than normal precipitation. Pacific Northwest, in midst of rainy
season, had much less than normal. Parts of northern Rockies had less than half expected
precipitation. Temperatures generally warm east of Mississippi River and cold in West. Snow
accumulated in mountains of West and persisted in northern Great Lakes.

FIRST WEEK...Cold weather plunged into Rockies and over Plateau before spreading slowly
eastward into Plains. Coldest weather of fall season settled over northern part of central
Plains. Cold airmass pushed southeastward, freezing temperatures reached southeast coast and
into Florida Panhandle. Cold air displaced warm air in East and generated moderate to heavy
showers and thunderstorms eastern Texas to southern Great Lakes and through St. Lawrence River
Valley. Showers and thunderstorms of lesser intensity covered rest of East but some eastern
areas had very little rain. Showers along Pacific Northwest coast advanced over northern
Rockies and produced snow which spread to central Rockies.

SECOND WEEK...Storm system brought rain to Pacific coast and some heavy showers to coast of
southern California. As storm developed and moved into Southwest, heavy showers fell in parts
of Plateau with snow in Sierras and other Mountain areas. Another surge of very cold air plunged
into West, while warm, moist air from Gulf of Mexico began flowing northward over East. A
Pacific storm regenerated in central Plains and triggered a line of thunderstorms and severe
weather from Mississippi River into Atlantic Ocean as colder air moved eastward. Light to
moderate rainshowers covered much of winter wheat areas of Oklahoma where rain was needed to
germinate newly planted wheat.

THIRD WEEK...Fair weather associated with large high-pressure system dominated most of Nation
early in week. At midweek, two systems began to change pattern. A storm system moved into
Pacific Northwest and spread heavy rain from central California to western Washington. Lighter
showers through rest of California, over the Plateau, and into the Rockies. Low-pressure system
in Gulf of Mexico spread warm, moist air northward resulting in heavy rain from southeastern
Texas to northern Georgia and light showers or rain through most of area east of Mississippi
River.

FOURTH WEEK...During last of month, precipitation moderate to heavy from central Texas to
St. Lawrence River Valley. Showers improved moisture supply in wheatfields of southern Plains.
Snow or freezing rain fell from New Mexico to central Kansas, but warming temperatures melted
cover. Snow accumulated in Rockies, northern Plains, and northern Great Lakes. Precipitation
light east of Appalachians until last 2 days when moderate rain fell over eastern Piedmont.
Warmer than normal temperatures covered eastern third of Nation, but weather remained very cold
in northern Plains and Rockies. In western Hawaiian Islands, Hurricane Iwa damaged crops and
property. (Prepared by NOAA/USDA Joint Agricultural Weather Facility.)

ROW CROP HARVEST

Harvests of corn, soybeans, grain sorghum lagged at beginning of November. Cotton picking
behind schedule nearly all States. Corn harvest progressed slowly during month due to wet
conditions. Sorghum and soybean harvests rapid progress first half month.

Corn harvest 55 percent complete in 17 major producing States beginning of November, tagging
last year's 58 percent and average 67 percent. Progress behind average in 9 States. Combining
lagged in all areas except Southeast and eastern Corn Belt. Harvest 40 points behind in
Nebraska, 38 points in both Minnesota and South Dakota, 26 points in Colorado, 25 points in
Iowa, and 20 points in Wisconsin. Late start combined with delays caused by wetness resulted in
late harvests. By end of month, 92 percent of acreage harvested, 4 points behind last year and
average. Progress 22 points behind average in both South Dakota and Wisconsin and 10 points
behind in Minnesota and Nebraska. Frozen fields permitted limited harvesting in northern areas.

Grain sorghum harvest 59 percent complete in 7 major producing States as November began, 2]
points slower than average. Progress Jagged all States except Colorado. Harvest 46 points
behind average in South Dakota, 45 points in Nebraska, and 30 points in Kansas. Texas harvest
about on schedule. Combining virtually completed by end of month. Only South Dakota had
significant acreage left -- 9 percent unharvested.
