NOVEMBER WEATHER SUMMARY

Precipitation accumulated to 8 or more inches from the lower Mississippi
Valley to eastern Kentucky. Rain was heavy throughout the South and the
Northeast, but parts of the mid-Atlantic States had less than normal rainfall.
Drought condition, that had persisted all spring and summer in the Southeast
ended in that area but persisted in the dry parts of the mid-Atlantic. Pre-
cipitation was above normal from the southern Rockies through most of Texas,
Oklahoma, and in central Missouri. Pacific storms brought heavy rains to the
northwest coast, but seasonal rains were less than normal in the Intermountain
region and the far Southwest. Precipitation was in the form of snow in the
Cascades, the northern and central Rockies, and across the northern Great
Plains. A blizzard dumped heavy snow in North Dakota and Minnesota, early in
the month. Average temperatures were warmer-than-normal in the Southeast,
near normal in most of the West, but much cooler than normal in the northern
Plains, upper Mississippi Valley, and the Northeast. (Prepared by the Joint
USDA/NOAA Agricultural Weather Facility.)

ROW CROP HARVEST

As rain tapered off, row crop harvest flourished in the central and
northern Great Plains and in the Corn Belt during the first week of November.
The second and third weeks, freezing temperatures and drier weather continued
pushing harvest towards completion in the central and northern Great Plains
and the Corn Belt. Rain hampered row crop harvest in the Southeast, Delta,
and southern Great Plains during most of November.

Corn harvest started out the month 3 points behind normal but equaled the
5-year average of 95 percent, as the month ended. Harvest was finished in the
Southeast and neared completion in most other States. The exception was in
Pennsylvania, Colorado, and Missouri where harvest reached 83, 85, and &6
percent completion, respectively. Harvest was 7 points behind normal in
Pennsylvania and 6 points behind normal in both Colorado and Missouri, as the
month ended.

In the 19 major producing States, soybeans were 89 percent combined on
November 30 compared with 87 percent last year and the 93 percent average.
Harvest was progressing normally at the beginning of the month, but slid
behind normal as farmers encountered rain in the Delta and Southeast, and
farmers in the Corn Belt turned their attention to completing corn harvest.
As the month closed, harvest was behind normal in 12 of the 19 major producing
States. Harvest was 21 points behind normal in North Carolina, 18 points in
Tennessee, 16 points in Kansas, 15 points in Missouri, and 12 points in
Arkansas. Harvest neared completion in the Corn Belt and northern Great
Plains on November 30.

In the 14 major producing States, 65 percent of the cotton acreage was
picked by the end of November. Wetness slowed cotton harvest during the
month, going from 1 point ahead of normal on November 2 to 10 points below
normal on November 30. In Texas, harvest moved at a very slow pace during the
month. Oklahoma's harvest was 1 percent finished at the beginning of November
and only 9 percent of the acreage was picked the rest of the month. Texas
cotton producers picked only 15 percent of their acreage during November. On
November 30, Texas and Oklahoma harvests were 35 and 10 percent complete--23
and 30 points behind schedule, respectively. South Carolina's cotton harvest
was 78 percent finished, 20 points slower than the average. Harvest was
finished or nearly finished, in the Delta and Southwest, except in New Mexico
where harvest lagged 30 points behind normal.

Sorghum was 93 percent harvested on November 30 compared with 97 percent
normally. With the exception of Texas, Oklahoma, and Missouri, harvest was
nearly finished.

FLORIDA FROZEN CONCENTRATED JUICE YIELD: The 1986-87 yield projection of

Frozen Concentrated Orange Juice is
1.44 gallons per box at 42.0 degree Brix, unchanged from the October 1, 1986
projection. This all orange yield computation is projected to the final
amount reported by the Florida Citrus Processors Association at the end of the
harvest season. The 1985-86 final season average yield was 1.37834 gallons
per box. In 1984-85, the FCOJ final yield was 1.37582 gallons per box.

GRAPEFRUIT: Excluding California's "Other Areas" grapefruit, the 1986 1986-87

forecast is 57.8 million boxes (2.17 million metric tons), down
fractionally from the November 1 forecast but 9 percent more than last
season. Production for the California "Other Areas" crop, which will be
forecast as of April 1, 1987, accounted for 4.80 million boxes last season.
The Florida all grapefruit forecast, as of December 1, continues at 50.0
million boxes, unchanged from the October 1 forecast but up 7 percent from
Tast season. The California "Desert Valley" grapefruit forecast is 3.60
million boxes, down 5 percent from November 1 but the same as last season's
utitized production. The Arizona forecast, at 2.10 million boxes, is the same
as the November 1 forecast but 12 percent below last season. In Texas, the
forecast, at 2.10 million boxes, is unchanged from November 1 and compares
with 220 thousand boxes harvested during the 1985-86 season. Harvest progress
to December 1 is estimated as follows: Arizona, 43 percent; Florida, 14
percent; and Texas, 23 percent. Harvest in California has slowed and is not
expected to increase significantly until next spring.

LEMONS: The Arizona-California lemon crop (tree crop available for harvest)
totals 25.2 million boxes (869 thousand metric tons), up 2 percent
from November 1 and 37 percent more than last season's utilized production.

In California, the forecast remains at 19.0 million boxes, 26 percent
higher than last season. Picking has been active in the California desert
areas. By November 29th, 41 percent of the crop in the desert had been
harvested. Good sized fruit and quality were reported. Harvesting in the
coastal area remained stow with 16 percent of the crop harvested. San Joaquin
Valley harvest was just beginning with only 7 percent picked. In Arizona, a
tree crop of 6.20 million boxes is expected, up 9 percent from the November J
forecast and 91 percent more than the small crop harvested last season.
Arizona lemon harvesting and packing is progressing at a very active pace.
Harvest is about 65 percent complete. Quality of the fruit is good to
excellent.

TANGERINES: The U.S. tangerine crop forecast continues at 4.25 million boxes

(158 thousand metric tons), unchanged from the November 1 forecast
but 16 percent more than last season, The Florida forecast, at 1.50 million
boxes, is for that portion of the crop expected to reach a size of 210 fruit
per 4/5 bushel carton by December 1 for the Dancy variety, and by November 1
for Robinson. (An estimate of utilized crop will be shown in the February
Crop Production report). The Dancy tangerine forecast is 1.10 million boxes
while the forecast for Robinson tangerines is 400 thousand boxes. Harvest of
all Florida tangerines is 3) percent complete. The California tangerine
forecast remains at 1.90 million boxes, 6 percent above last season. Harvest
in California is well underway for the Fairchild variety and just starting for
Orlandos while picking of Mandarins is expected to begin in January. The
Arizona tangerine crop forecast continues at 850 thousand boxes, up 21 percent
from last season. Harvest began about November 10 with approximately 28
percent of the crop harvested by December 1.

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

4.00 million boxes (163 thousand metric tons), unchanged from the
October 1 forecast but 36 percent above last season. Harvest as of December 1
was 16 percent complete.

WINTER WHEAT SEEDING

Rain delayed winter seeding during most of November but most of the
acreage was seeded by the end of the month except in the Southeast, Southwest,
and in Missouri. In the 20 major producing States, winter wheat was 96
percent seeded and 91 percent emerged at the end of the month. Normally, 97
percent would be seeded and 91 percent would be emerged by this date.
Missouri's seedings were 75 percent complete on November 30, 19 points behind
normal. Most of the remaining acreage was not expected to be seeded.
Fifty-five percent of California's acreage was seeded, 3 points ahead of
normal. Planting was 4 points ahead of normal in Georgia. As the month
ended, less than half of the wheat in North Dakota had sufficient snow cover.

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 tast 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 errors that are
common to aft? 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 1966-85 twenty-year period; the square root of this 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 December 1 cotton production forecast
is 1.8 percent. This means that chances are 2 out of 3 that the current
production forecast of 9.79 million bales will not be above or below the final
estimate by more than 1.8 percent or approximately 176 thousand bales. Chances
are 9 out of 10 (90 percent confidence level) that the difference will not
exceed 3.1] percent or approximately 304 thousand bales.

Differences between the December 1 forecast and the final estimate during
the past 10 years have averaged 191 thousand bales, ranging from 3 thousand to
399 thousand bales. The December 1 forecast has been below the final estimate
7 times and above 3 times.

COTTON: All cotton production is forecast at 9.79 million bales, 27 percent
below the 1985 crop and 1 percent below November 1. The Upland pro-
duction forecast is 9.60 million bales and American Pima production is
expected to total 190 thousand bales. Total area for harvest for all cotton
is estimated at 8.71 million acres (3.53 million hectares), down 15 percent
from last year, but up fractionally from the November 1 forecast. Yields are
expected to average 539 pounds per harvested acre, down 91 pounds from 1985.

In Texas and Oklahoma, Upland production is forecast at 2.86 million
bales, down 32 percent from last year and 3 percent below the November 1
forecast. Texas harvest is beginning to make significant progress following
some hard freezes and drying weather. In Oklahoma, harvest is lagging 5 weeks
behind normal.

PECANS: The final production forecast for the U.S. pecan crop is 225 million

pounds (102 thousand metric tons) in-shell basis, up 4 percent from
the October 1 forecast but 8 percent lower than the crop harvested in 1985.
The forecast for Georgia is 95.0 million pounds, up 12 percent from the
October 1 forecast. Florida, at 5.50 million pounds, is up 10 percent from
October 1. Louisiana and New Mexico both expect larger crops than earlier
with current forecasts of 18.0 million pounds and 26.0 million pounds,
respectively. The December 1 forecast for Texas is unchanged from October 1,
at 40.0 million pounds. Mississippi, North Carolina, and South Carolina are
unchanged from the October 1 estimates. Production is forecasted to be lower
from October 1 in three States: Alabama, at 13.0 million pounds; Oklahoma, at
12.0 million pounds; and Arkansas, at 1.25 million pounds. Rains and wet
conditions in pecan groves have slowed harvest in nearly all States. The crop
is late and pecan harvesting is behind schedule. Cold, dry weather is needed
across the pecan belt to accelerate the harvest and to allow remaining pecans
to drop off trees. Quality is variable and has been reduced by the recent
warm, humid weather. Shelling percentages have also declined recently, due to
embryo rot which must be cut out during the shelling process.

PAPAYAS: Hawaii fresh papaya production is forecast at 5.80 million pounds

(2630 metric tons) in December. A steady decrease is anticipated
over the next 3 months and production is forecast at 5.70 million pounds (2590
metric tons) in January, 4.70 miltion pounds (2130 metric tons) in February,
and 4.00 million pounds (1810 metric tons) in March. The expected outputs of
December, January, and February are all above year ago levels.

Fresh utilization during November jis estimated at 4,09 million pounds
(1850 metric tons), down 30 percent from October but 21 percent above last
November. Cumulative fresh sales through November were 2 percent tess than
the same time period last year. November's total crop area of 4025 acres
(1630 hectares) was down 1 percent from October but was 11 percent more than
November last year. Harvested area of 2450 acres (990 hectares) decreased 1
percent from October but was 3 percent more than last November.

ORANGES: U.S. production is forecast at 199 million boxes (7.66 million metric

tons), down 1 percent from the October 1 forecast, but up 13 percent
from last season and 25 percent higher than 1984-85. The forecast of all
oranges in Florida is 129 million boxes, unchanged from the October 1 forecast,
8 percent more than last season's crop and 24 percent higher than 1984-85,
The forecast for early and mid-season varieties in Florida is 72.0 million
boxes, 12 percent more than last season and 31 percent above the 1984-85
crop. Harvest of Florida early and mid-season oranges is 4 percent complete.
The Valencia forecast, at 57.0 million boxes, is 4 percent higher than last
season and 17 percent above the 1984-85 crop.

The California all orange crop forecast, at 67.0 million boxes, is down 3
percent from October 1 but is 22 percent above last season. The forecast for
Navel oranges is 38.0 million boxes, down 5 percent from the October 1 fore-
cast but 14 percent more than last season and 45 percent above 1984-85
production. Harvest of the Navel crop as of November 27 was 12 percent
complete, a little ahead of last season. Quality is excellent but sizes are
below average. California's Valencia forecast of 29.0 million boxes is
unchanged from the October 1? forecast, 35 percent higher than last season's
small crop and 11 percent more than the 1984-85 crop.

The Arizona all orange forecast is 2.30 million boxes, up 5 percent from
October 1 and the same production as last season. The Texas all grange
forecast is 850 thousand boxes, unchanged from October 1 and compares with 310

thousand boxes harvested last season.

Changes in U.S. production between December 1 and the final estimate have
averaged 21.2 million boxes over the past ten seasons, ranging from 300
thousand boxes in 1977-78 to 53.0 million boxes in 1983-84. The freeze that
occurred in Florida and Texas during December 1983 was the major cause for the
53.0 million box difference between the December 1, 1983 and final production
for the 1983-84 season.

CROP PRODUCTION AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS BOARD,

TEMPLES: The Florida temple forecast is 3.60 million boxes (147 thousand
metric tons), unchanged from October 1 but 22 percent more than the
1985-86 season. Harvest has not yet begun.

FLORIDA CITRUS: Most of Florida's citrus groves were unseasonably warm and
dry during November. Caretakers in all areas have been
irrigating to prevent wilt and fruit softening. The only trees showing new
growth are in heavily watered young groves. There has been some fruit split-
ting on Valencia oranges in isolated areas. Color on most early fruit is
good. Harvest of all types of early oranges increased during November as most
citrus processing plants opened to receive field run fruit. Movement of white
and colored grapefruit has been active for both the fresh and processed
markets. Harvest of Robinson tangerines peaked at mid-November .and slowed
considerably during the next two weeks. Picking of both Dancy tangerines and
tangelos increased during November for the Thanksgiving fresh market trade.
Caretakers have been very active preparing young trees for the upcoming winter

season. Most groves are now clean cultivated with trunk wraps and soil
banking.

CROP PRODUCTION, AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS BOARD,
DECEMBER 1986 A-8 NASS, USDA


Production in the Delta States (Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi,
Missouri, and Tennessee) is forecast at 3.05 million bales, 18 percent below
last year and down fractionally from the November 1 forecast. By the end of
November, harvest was virtually complete in Louisiana and Mississippi and in
Arkansas, Missouri, and Tennessee harvest was nearing completion.

Upland cotton production in the Western States (Arizona, California, and
New Mexico) is expected to total 2.95 million bales, down 28 percent from last
year and unchanged from November 1. Harvest is ahead of last year in Arizona
and California, but is lagging behind in New Mexico.

Producers in the Southeastern States (Alabama, Georgia, North Carolina,
and South Carolina), expect to harvest 710 thousand bales, down 41 percent
from last year but up 4 percent from November 1. By the end of the month,
harvest neared completion in Alabama. Harvest was ahead of last year in North
Carolina, but lagged behind in Georgia and South Carolina.

Bureau of the Census reported 7,495,330 running bales ginned prior to
December 1 compared with 10,051,719 to the same date last year and 8,972,412
bales in 1984.

COTTONSEED: Production of cottonseed for 1986, based on a three year average

lint-seed ratio, is forecast at 3.86 million tons (3.50 million
metric tons), 27 percent below 1985 production of 5.28 million tons (4.79
million metric tons).

BURLEY TOBACCO: Production of burley tobacco is forecast at 435 million pounds

(197 thousand metric tons), 24 percent below 1985 and the
lowest since 1943. Production is down from 1985 in all States. Yield per
acre is expected to average 1964 pounds, 283 pounds less than last year.

Burley markets opened November 24. Gross sales during the first 7 days
totaled 253 million pounds compared with 278 for the first 7 days last year.

ORY BEANS: Production of dry beans is estimated at 22.8 million cwt (1.03

million metric tons), up 3 percent from last year and 8 percent
above two years ago. Harvested area, totaling 1.49 million acres (605
thousand hectares), gained 1 percent from last year and 2 percent from 1984,
The average yield was 1526 pounds per acre, 2 percent above last year and 6
percent above 1984.

Rain during harvest devastated Michigan's crop, resulting in thousand of
acres of outright losses and very sharp yield and quality reductions.

U.S. production of navy beans fell 44 percent; red kidney beans were off
18 percent; and small whites dropped 70 percent from last year. On the up
side, pintos gained 34 percent; great northerns gained 85 percent; pinks
increased 41 percent; and production of black turtle soup beans nearly
quadrupled.

Harvest of New York dry beans was interrupted by heavy fall rains, but
tosses were minimal compared with Michigan. Northern and Central States
produced very good crops with some harvest difficulty in the Nebraska
Panhandle and the northern Red River Valley of North Dakota and Minnesota.
Harvest in Colorado's western dryland area was also delayed by rain.

California harvest was virtually finished in November but yields were down
somewhat. Idaho dry beans produced very well in spite of some heat stress
during the summer.
