Special Note

August 12, 2022

When planting delays occur, NASS has established procedures and processes in place to 

re-contact respondents. Survey respondents in Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota, who 

reported acreage as not yet planted for the Acreage report, released June 30, 2022, were 

re‐contacted in July. Excessive rainfall delayed planting at the time of data collection of the 

survey, leaving a portion of acres still to be planted in these States.

Planted and harvested area estimates for the States and crops listed below were reviewed and 

any updates are included on page 6 of the report.

• Minnesota: barley, canola, corn, dry edible beans, oats, soybeans, sunflowers, and 

other spring wheat;

• North Dakota: barley, canola, corn, dry edible beans, oats, soybeans, sunflowers, and Durum 

& other spring wheat;

• South Dakota: barley, corn, oats, sorghum, soybeans, sunflowers, and other spring wheat.

Beginning in 2022, to allow for more complete information, potato area planted for certified seed 

data will be published in the Crop Production report released in September. Data have historically 

been published in the Crop Production report released in August.
