LEMONS: The California and Arizona lemon crop is expected to total 24.7 million boxes (852

thousand metric tons), down 4 percent from last month's forecast and 22 percent less
than last season. Expected production for California, at 18.1 million boxes, is 27 percent less
than last season. Production for Arizona is estimated at 6.60 million boxes, 6 percent less
than last season. Harvest was 84 percent complete in California by June 1 and virtually
finished in Arizona.

CITRUS HARVEST AND UTILIZATION: By the first of June 1, 161 million boxes of oranges had been
harvested--89 percent of the crop, compared with 84 percent on

dune 1, 1981. Processors had used 76 percent of the oranges harvested by June 1 this year,

compared with 82 percent a year earlier. .

Grapefruit harvest was 91 percent complete by the beginning of June compared with 97 percent
on the same date last year. Processors used 60 percent of the 1981-82 crop harvested by June 1,
compared with 59 percent of that harvested by the same time last year.

Lemon harvest was 88 percent complete on June 1 compared with 84 percent a year earlier.

APRICOTS: The first forecast for the 1982 U.S. apricot crop is placed at 103 thousand tons (93.1

thousand metric tons), 15 percent more than last year's crop but 20 percent below the
1980 crop. The California crop is forecast at 100 thousand tons, 16 percent above last season's
short crop. Blenheim, Patterson and Modesto varieties look good but Tiltons are down for the
second year in a row. The Stanislaus County crop is light, with production also indicated below
normal in San Joaquin and Contra Costa counties. Prospects in other areas appear good.

NECTARINES: The first forecast for the California nectarine crop is 150 thousand tons (136 thou-

sand metric tons), 18 percent less than last year and 21 percent below 1980 produc-
tion. Above normal rainfall during the bloom period this year cut crop prosects. In addition,
a severe damaging hail storm in Fresno and Tulare counties on March 28 further reduced crop
prospects. Harvest is underway with good fruit quality reported. The fruit is sizing well due
to the prolonged coo) temperatures to date.

ORIED PRUNES: California's prune production is forecast at 135 thousand tons (122 thousand

metric tons), 15 percent less than last year and 20 percent below the 1980 crop.
Rains during part of the bloom period prevented complete pollination. Fruit size appears good
to very good but maturity is behind schedule due to unseasonably cool temperatures.

PLUMS: Plum production in California is forecast at 95.0 thousand tons (86.2 thousand metric

tons), 52 percent less than the 198] crop and 41 percent below 1980 production. Above
normal rainfall during the bloom period resulted in poor pollination. A heavy hailstorm on
March 28 caused substantial fruit losses in the major producing area of Fresno and Tulare
counties. Picking of the Red Beaut variety is virtually complete. Durado harvest is underway
and Santa Rosa harvest should begin about June 15.

Soybean planting in the 18 major producing States reached 50% completion -by the end of May,
lagging the average of 58%. Planting in Iowa fell 66 percentage points behind average, and in
Nebraska, planting was 57 percentage points behind average. In contrast, planting in Ohio
neared completion, 39 percentage points ahead of schedule. merged plants were in fair to good
condition.

At the end of May sorghum planting was 38% finished in the 7 major producing States, lagging
the average progress of 55%. Rainy weather during May also delayed sorghum planting; progress
fell 56 percentage points behind average in Nebraska, 22 in South Dakota, and 15 points behind
in Kansas. .

In the 14 major producing States, 74% of the cotton acreage had been planted as May ended.
At the end of May last year, 88% had been planted. Planting in Texas was only 58% completed.
Heavy rains at the end of the month washed out some fields in the Texas Panhandle. These fields
were replanted in early June. In southern areas, early-planted fields began squaring. Plant
condition rated fair to good.

Winter wheat was also in fair to good condition, although heavy rains lodged some winter
wheat and caused local flooding in southern areas of the Great Plains. Weeds, insects, and
disease problems were greater than usual due to wet weather but otherwise the abundant rainfall
greatly benefited the crop. In the 15 major producing States, 74% of the acreage was headed at
the end of May. The crop was turning color in the Corn Belt and central Plains. Harvesting was
active in extreme southern areas.

Spring wheat seeding in the 5 major producing States had reached 87% completion as May
ended, 6 points slower than average. The crop had emerged on 68% of the acreage. Ample
moisture supplies should promote good growth of the crop.

Peanut planting neared completion in the Southeast. fEarly-planted fields were blooming.
Weather permitting, tobacco transplanting was in full swing.

WINTER WHEAT: Production of winter wheat is forecast at record high 2.13 billion bushels (58.0
million metric tons) based on June 1 conditions. This is 2 percent above the
previous record high production of 2.10 billion bushels (57.1 million metric tons) set last year
and 3 percent more than last month's forecast. Producers expect to harvest 58.0 million acres
(23.5 million hectares) for grain this year, 1 percent below last year's record high acreage
harvested, but up fractionally from last month's estimate. Yield is forecast at 36.8 bushels
per harvested acre, compared with 35.8 bushels last year and 35.7 bushels forecast last month.

MAY WEATHER SUMMARY.

Warm, open weather at the beginning of the month allowed planting to begin in the Corn Belt,
but nearly continuous rain in the western portion of the area kept farmers out of the fields for
most of the month. Periodic rain and continued warm weather in the eastern Belt allowed
planting to near completion and promoted excellent early growth of corn and soybeans. Severe
weather through the Plains was accompanied by heavy downpours which lodged some winter wheat in
the southern Plains States and caused local flooding. Winter weather persisted through the
Rocky Mountains, and new snow covered the northern portion. Cold rain reached out over the High
Plains and stressed livestock. The West remained mostly dry with temperatures near normal
except for the central valley in California where temperatures averaged 2 to 6° above normal.

FIRST WEEK...A cold front moved into the Pacific Northwest and continued slowly across the
United States. The weather was quite cool behind the front, and snow fel? over the mountains
and then in the High Plains from Colorado to Montana. A tongue of very warm, moist air preceded
the front into the Great Lakes region. After a long hard winter, residents of the region
welcomed temperatures in the eighties. Farmers took advantage of the warm weather and began
planting spring crops rapidly. Most of the farm activity came to a halt as the cold front
approached. Showers and thunderstorms accompanied the front. Severe weather was widespread as
the cooler air encountered the warm, moist air in the East.

SECOND WEEK...A ridge of high pressure over the eastern United States kept storms from
moving through that area, but showers, thunderstorms, and much severe weather spread over the
Plains from the Rockies to the Mississippi River Valley. Most of the rain was needed to sustain
growth of winter grains and spring crops. Sunny weather allowed planting in the eastern Corn
Belt, but persistant showers in the western portion slowed field activity. Parts of the East
were getting too dry to germinate newly seeded areas. Torrential rains in parts of the southern
Plains flooded some cropland. Average temperatures for the week were cool in the West and warm
in the East--up to 12 to 15° above normal in the Great Lakes region.

THIRD WEEK...The high pressure ridge in the East broke down and allowed storm systems to
move over nearly all States. Onty the extreme Southwest was without rain, Violent
thunderstorms triggered tornadoes, hail, and high winds over much of the eastern half of the
Nation. Heavy downpours in Oklahoma caused some lodging in recently headed winter wheat. Daily
rain in the western Corn Belt further delayed planting of corn and soybeans, but warm weather
and showers in the eastern portion helped newly planted seeds. Average temperatures were near
normal or warmer over all of the Nation. It was 6 to 90 warmer than normal from southern
Illinois into Michigan.

FOURTH WEEK.,.Showers and thunderstorms covered the United States east of the Rockies.
Severe weather was widespread through the Plains, the Ohio Valley, through and east of the
central Appalachians, and in Florida. A tornado in southern I)linois caused death and injuries
as well as extensive property damage. Seeding of corn and soybeans was at a near standstill in
the western Corn Belt. The weather was cold over the northern Rockies and High Plains. Snow
covered the area in the early mornings and cold rain stressed livestock. (Prepared by NOAA/USDA
Joint Agricultural Weather Facility.)

MAY FIELDWORK

Clear weather in eastern portions of the Corn Belt permitted rapid planting of corn and
soybeans. Timely rains and warm weather promoted excellent germination and growth. However,
persistent rainfall in western areas of the Corn Belt through the Central Plains kept farmers
sidelined for most of May. Planting progress fell far behind schedule as producers waited for
fields to dry.

By the end of May, corn planting was 82% finished in the 17 major producing States, behind
the average progress of 90%. Planting was 49 percentage points behind average in Nebraska, 25
in Iowa, and 27 percentage points slower than average in South Dakota. Producers in Georgia,
Indiana, and Ohio finished planting the crop while those in I]linois, Kentucky, Michigan, and
North Carolina were nearing completion. Early planted fields in the South were beginning to
silk,

Oregon production is forecast at 72.0 thousand tons, 15 percent less than the 198] crop and
10 percent Jess than 1980. Poor pollination in some areas and cold weather during late April
reduced the crop.

Production for Washington is forecast at 160 thousand tons, 11 percent above last year and
12 percent more than in 1980. The Yakima Valley expects the largest crop ever produced while
the rest of the State's crop appears to be below recent years. The crop is developing well even
though the spring was cold and pollination weather was less than ideal.

PAPAYAS - HAWAII: Hawaii papaya production in June is forecast at 4.90 million pounds (2220

metric tons), up 42 percent from May, but down 18 percent from a year ago.
Fresh production is expected to peak in July at 5.15 million pounds (2340 metric tons). An 11
percent decrease from July in fresh output is forecast for August and a 13 percent drop, from
the August level, to 4.00 million pounds (1810 metric tons) is expected in September.

May fresh production is estimated at 3.45 million pounds (1560 metric tons), 8 percent below
April and 30 percent less than May a year ago. Fresh production for the first five months of
this year totaled 18.6 million pounds (8420 metric tons), 21 percent less than the cumulative
total for the same period a year ago. In May, the total area in crop was up one percent from
April, but area harvested, at 2180 acres (880 hectares), remained unchanged.

Despite the advent of better weather conditions, farmers on Kauai Island continued to rogue
papaya trees infected with Phytophthora. Total area in crop on that island has been reduced by
33 percent since the rains began last November. In May, Kauai fresh production totaled 250
thousand pounds, down 67 percent from a year earlier. Further tree losses are expected as
infected trees succumb to the disease.

ORANGES: The Nation's orange crop is expected to total 181 million boxes (7.07 million metric

tons), 3 percent below’ the May 1 forecast and 26 percent less than was harvested in
1980-81. The crop in Florida is placed at 128 million boxes, down 2 percent from the May 1
forecast and 26 percent less than last season. The California crop forecast is now at 44.3
million boxes, down 10 percent from the May 1 forecast and 33 percent less than last season.
Arizona's crop is forecast at 3.05 million boxes, 3 percent above the May 1 forecast and 17
percent more than 1980-81. The Texas all orange crop is forecast at 6.00 million boxes, 2
percent higher than the May 7 forecast and 39 percent above 1980-81.

Harvest of oranges in the U.S. was 89 percent complete this June 1, compared with 84 percent
on June 1, 1981. Harvest of early season varieties in Florida is complete while 85 percent of
the Valencia crop was harvested by June 1. In California, harvest of Navels was complete by
dune 1 and 32 percent of the Valencia crop was picked. The Arizona Valencia crop was 96 percent
harvested by June 1. Texas orange harvest was nearly complete.

The June 1 U.S. orange forecast has deviated from the final production by an average of 2.74
million’ boxes over the past 10 seasons, ranging from 210 thousand boxes in 1973-74 to 7.60
million boxes -in 1976-77.

FLORIDA FROZEN CONCENTRATED JUICE YIELD: The 1981-82 crop projection for the Florida FCO) yield
is estimated at 1.28 gallons per box at 42.0 degree
brix equivalent, up slightly from the May 1 projection of 1.27 gallons per box. The final yield
for the 1980-81 crop was 1.21 gallons per box at 43.4 degree brix equivalent.

GRAPEFRUIT: The U. S. grapefruit crop forecast continues at 72.7 million boxes (2.68 million

metric tons), 7 percent above last season. The Florida crop is now forecast at
48.5 million boxes, 1 percent below the May 1 forecast and 4 percent less than last season.
California prospects remain at 7.90 million boxes, 2 percent below last season. Arizona
production is placed at 2.80 million boxes, unchanged from the May 1 forecast and equal to last
season's harvested prqduction. The Texas grapefruit forecast is now 13.5 million boxes, up 4
percent from last month and more than twice as large as last season's small crop.

On June 1, harvest was 98 percent complete in Florida, 86 percent in Arizona, 32 percent
complete in California, and 99 percent in Texas.

Changes in the U. S. grapefruit producion forecast between June 1 and final producton have

averaged 678 thousand boxes over the past 10 seasons, ranging from 240 thousand boxes in 1972-73
to 1.76 million boxes in 1977-78.

Crop prospects in North Carolina appear bright despite recent extreme wet weather.
Production in the Tarheel State is estimated at 2.21 million cwt, 7 percent above 1981. The
Texas spring potato crop is forecast at 1.14 million cwt, 36 percent above the short 1981. crop.
In the Rio Grande Valley, harvest was virtually complete by the end of May. Growing conditions
remain good in the Winter Garden area as scattered showers have reduced irrigation needs.
Harvest is progressing well when weather permits. Some damage from high winds and hail has been
reported in the Knox-Haskell area. However, the crop outlook remains favorable as harvest gets

underway.

SWEETPOTATOES - 1981 REVISED: Production of sweetpotatoes in 1981 totaled 12.8 million cwt (578

thousand metric tons), 16 percent more than the drought reduced
crop of 1980, but 5 percent below the 1979 crop. Estimated area harvested at 109 thousand acres
(44.2 thousand hectares) was 7 percent greater than 1980 but 4 percent less than 1979. Average
yield, of 117 cwt per acre, equaled the record high set in 1978 and 1979, and was 10 cwt above
1980. Production for 1981 was above the previous year in all States except Tennessee and New

Jersey.

SUGAR CROPS-1981 REVISED: Production of sugarbeets in 1981 totaled 27.4 million tons (24.9 mil-

lion metric tons), up 17 percent from the 23.5 million.tons (21.3
million metric tons) produced in 1980. Growers harvested 1.23 million acres (497 thousand
hectares) in 1981, 3 percent more than in 1980. The record high yield of 22:3 tons per acre in
1981 was 2.65 tons above the 1980 yield.

Sugarcane processed for sugar totaled 26.2 million tons (23.7 million metric tons), 2
percent above 1980. Sugarcane for sugar was harvested from 716 thousand acres (290 thousand
hectares) and yields averaged 36.6 tons per acre in 1981.

Total sugar production (raw value) was 6.12 million tons (5.55 million metric tons), up 4
percent from the 1980 output of 5.88 million tons (5.33 million metric tons). Sugar (raw value)
produced from cane totaled 2.83 million tons (2.57 million metric tons). Sugarbeets sliced from
the 198] crop totaled. 26.3 million tons (23,8 million metric tons). Sugar (raw value) produced
from the 1981 slice amounted to 3.29 million tons (2.98 million metric tons), up 4 percent from
1980. .

ALMONDS: The California almond crop forecast remains at 360 million pounds (163 thousand metric

tons) shelled basis, 12 percent less than last year's harvest. Cool temperatures
during most of May helped almonds to continue sizing well. Nut sets vary considerably by area
and age of trees. The Nonpareil, Carmel and Price varieties appear to have fairly good sets
while the NePlus and Peerless varieties are lighter.

SWEET CHERRIES: Production of sweet cherries in the six western States is forecast at 109 thou-
sand tons (98.8 thousand metric tons}, 15 percent less than last year and 20
percent below the 1980 crop.

California's crop is forecast at 11.0 thousand tons, 66 percent less than a year ago. Rain,
during bloom, caused the sharp reduction in production. The fruit is large and of good
quality. Harvest should be completed in the major areas by the second week of June.

In Oregon, production is forecast at 32.0 thousand tons, 20 percent less than last year.
Poor pollination weather in the Willamette Valley caused a light set, while frost damaged the
crop in the Wasco area.

The Washington crop is estimated at 60.0 thousand tons, 29 percent more than the previous
season and 15 percent more than the 1980 crop. The Yakima district expects a substantial
increase from last year's rain damaged crop. Harvest is expected to begin about June 17, 10
days later than last year.

TART CHERRIES: The three western States of Colorado, Oregon and Utah expect tart cherry pro-
duction to total 16.0 million pounds (7260 metric tons), 22 percent less than
last year and 20 percent less than 1980. Compared with last year, the production forecast is
down 43 percent in Utah and 37 percent in Colorado. In Oregon, production is expected to
increase 40 percent. Freezes during bloom damaged the crop in Utah and Colorado. Favorable
weather and a reversal of the trend toward fewer tart cherry trees caused Oregon's increase.

PASTURE AND RANGE FEED: The June 1 pasture and range feed condition for the 48 contiguous States

was 87 percent, 7 points more than a year ago and 5 points above the
1971-80 average for the date. Conditions were less favorable than a year earlier in 25 States,
better in 22 States and equal to last year in 1 State. Compared with last month, conditions
improved in 26 States, remained the same in 7 and declined in 15 States. Ranges and pastures
developed slowly in the Rocky Mountains from Montana to New Mexico, due to continued cool
temperatures. Conditions were generally poor to fair in the higher elevations. Widespread
showers improved conditions east to the Mississippi River, with pastures in mostly good to
excellent condition. Dry conditions in the southeast during early May caused a decline in
pasture conditions from a month earlier, but scattered showers late in the month resulted in
improved growth. In most other areas of the Nation, ample soil moisture and warmer temperatures
encouraged excellent growth and pastures were in good to excellent condition.

POTATOES: Production of spring potatoes,in the U.S. is forecast at 20.2 million cwt (918

thousand metric tons), down 3 percent from both the May 1 forecast and the 1981
output. The decline in production from May 1 results from reduced yields in California, Florida
and Alabama. THe average yield is expected to be 260 cwt per acre, down 8 cwt from the May 1
forecast and 6 cwt below the record high set in 1981. Area for harvest is estimated at 78.0
thousand acres (31.6 thousand hectares), unchanged from May 1 and equal to the 198] harvested
acreage.

California production is expected to total 9.44 million cwt, 4 percent less than the May 1
forecast and 8 percent below the 198] output. Yield is estimated at 370 cwt per acre, down 15
cwt from last month's prospects and 20 cwt below last year. Although quality is reported as
good, the hot dry winds that plagued the Kern District in early April reduced size and yields.
Later acreage was not in the tuber development stage when the hot winds came, and suffered
little damage. At this time, the later acreage is progressing normally.

Production in the Hastings area of Florida is forecast at 5.16 million cwt, 4 percent below
last month's forecast but 3 percent above last year. Estimated yield at 240 cwt is down 10 cwt
from the May 1 forecast. With harvest nearing completion, yields from the late plantings did
not improve as expected.

Winter wheat condition was mostly fair to good during the month of May. Crop development
was about equal to or ahead of normal in eight of the major producing States. Winter wheat was
headed in all major States except Montana -- ranging up to 98 percent headed in California.
Idaho, at 3 percent, South Dakota, at 10 percent, and Washington, at 15 percent, were well
behind normal. Of the 15 major producing States, heading was 70 percent complete compared with
last year's 77 percent and the average of 67 percent. In the southern States, fields were
turning color and harvest was underway. with progress somewhat behind normal. Crop development
was also running behind normal in the Great Plains, but harvest was underway in parts of Texas.

Above normal rainfall in Kansas during May improved crop prospects considerably. The
improved conditions resulted in a increase in acres intended for harvest as grain which is now
forecast at 13.2 million acres or 200 thousand acres above the May 1 estimate. forecast yield
is up 2 bushels per acre.

As of June 1, dry open weather was vitally needed in all areas of Oklahoma. Rainfall
received the last week of May was beneficial to dryland wheat in the Panhandle, but excess
moisture is now a concern in the remaining portions of Oklahoma. In Texas, wheat harvest has
been active across the southern half of the State with some delays caused by wet conditions.
Wheat condition has improved since last month due to additional moisture although some lodging
has occured because of high winds in the northern part of the State.

PEACHES: Production of peaches is forecast at 2.12 billion pounds (963 thousand metric tons), 24
Percent less than last season and 31 percent below the 1980 harvest.

The nine Southern States are expected to produce 351 million pounds, 3 percent more than last
month's forecast but 52 percent less than last year. Prospects increased in Alabama, Arkansas
and Georgia, and offset the decrease in Texas, where hail, brown rot, and scab reduced the crop.
The crop in South Carolina is placed at 170 million pounds, the same as last month but down 60
percent from last year. Picking has begun in the Ridge and Coastal areas. Quality is reported
excellent.

The Georgia crop is forecast at 100 million pounds, a 5 percent increase from last month but
29 percent below last year. Harvest began in May and has progressed faster than normal. Picking
will be complete earlier than usual because of earlier than usual maturity and the near absence
of fruit in the North. High humidity during the last week of May has caused some brown rot.

The New Jersey crop, forecast at 80.0 million pounds, is 11 percent less than 1981.
Conditions are extremely varied with some orchards having a full crop while others have no fruit.
Winter kill and freezing weather in April reduced the crop, especially in South Jersey.

The California freestone peach crop is forecast at 410 million pounds, down 7 percent from
1981, while the Clingstone peach crop, forecast at 1.02 billion pounds, was off 15 percent. A
hail storm, in late March, hit the major stone fruit area of Fresno County reducing the Freestone
crop. Excessive rains have delayed spraying in some areas causing leaf curl. Cling peach
acreage reductions due to drowned trees, and reduced yields because of light set, brought about
the lower production. Cling peaches, however, are larger because of the light set.

Note: A special report on the California Clingstone peach crop will be released June 25,
T9BZ at 3:00 P.M. ET, by the Crop Reporting Board and the California Crop and Livestock
Reporting Service. The report will be based on an objective measurement survey now being
conducted and on other indicators available at that time.

BARTLETT PEARS: Production of Bartlett pears in California, Oregon and Washington is forecast
at 492 thousand tons (446 thousand metric tons), down 17 percent from the 1981
crop and 19 percent less than in 1980.

California's production is expected to be 260 thousand tons, 29 percent less than last year
and 33 percent below 1980. Fruit set was light because of cold, rainy weather during the
pollination period. On May 10, a hail storm hit a prime growing area of Lake County reducing
the crop further. .

RELIABILITY OF JUNE 1 WINTER WHEAT PRODUCTION FORECAST

The winter wheat production forecast in this report is based on mail and
objective yield surveys conducted just prior to June 1. Acreage for harvest
is based on information provided by both surveys. The yield estimate is based
on counts and measurements from a probability sample of wheat fields and on
mail reports from farmers on the condition and probable yield of the crop.
Both surveys are subject to sampling and non-sampling errors common to all
surveys. This production forecast is also subject to change due to growing
conditions that may affect the crop after June 1.

To assist users in evaluating the reliability of the June 1 winter wheat
production forecast, the "Root Mean Square Error", a statistical measure based
on past performance, is computed. This is done by expressing the deviation
between the June 1 production forecast and the final estimate as a percentage
of the final estimate, and averaging the squared percentage deviations for the
1962-1981 twenty-year period; the square root of the average becomes
statistically the "Root Mean Square Error". Probability statements can be
made concerning 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 dune 1 winter wheat production
forecast is 5.9 percent. This means that chances are 2 out of 3 that the
current production forecast of 2.13 billion bushels will not be above or below
the final estimate by more than 5.9 percent or approximately 126 million
bushels. Chances are 9 out of 10 (90 percent confidence level) that the
difference will not exceed 10.2 percent or approximately 217 million bushels.
Differences between the June 1 winter wheat production forecast and the final
estimate during the past 10 years have averaged 87 million bushels, ranging
from 6 million to 174 million bushels. The June 1 forecast was below the
final estimate in 6 years and above in 4 years.
