This is a reminder that one of our largest industries in Montana is Agriculture. Please help us in keeping the heritage and industry active by supporting the 2007 Census of Agriculture. Photo; The beautiful barn pictured on the cover was built in 1928 by N.C. Wirth, and it is now owned by his son. Bob Wirth. Bob was only five years old when the barn was built and remembers being scolded for getting in the way during construction. His father used lumber to build the barn from trees cut along Lyons Creek. Originally, N.C. built the barn to house dairy cows and horses. Most recently, Bob used it as a calving barn.

Agriculture continues to be a vital industry for the state's economy. At the end of 2007, we will be conducting the Census of Agriculture! Not only does the Census give the farmers and ranchers of Montana the chance to be heard, but it gives them the valuable opportunity to influence key decisions that will shape the direction of American agriculture in general, and our community in particular, for years to come. When the Census form hits your mailbox, do your part for Montana's agricultural sector and fill it out and return it. The USDA, NASS, Montana Field Office works in cooperation with the Montana Department of Agriculture, the Montana Wheat and Barley Committee, the Montana Alfalfa Seed Committee, Montana State University, and many other producers' organizations to provide valuable agricultural statistics. Thank you to Montana's farmers, ranchers, and agribusinesses that made this publication possible through their willingness to supply basic agricultural information.

Wheat and Products remained Montana's leading export, making up 77 percent of the state's agricultural exports. Vegetables & Preparations and Feeds and Fodders tied for second place, each at seven percent of the total. The Vegetables & Preparations category includes dry beans, dry peas, lentils, and fall potatoes. Wheat and Products exports showed the largest change in value, increasing $65.4 million from 2005. Vegetables and Preparations were up $3.7 million, followed by Feeds and Fodders which increased $1.2 million. Seeds showed the largest decline in exports, dropping $8.9 million from 2005, followed by Feed Grains and Products dropping $7.8 million. Montana remained in third place among states exporting Wheat and Products for fiscal year 2006. The top wheat exporting state for 2006 was Kansas, followed by North Dakota, Montana, Washington, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, and Minnesota. Considering exports of all products, California remained on top, followed by Iowa, Texas, Illinois, Nebraska, Kansas, Minnesota, and Washington. Montana moved up from thirty-second place in 2005 for exports of all products to thirtieth place in 2006. U.S. agricultural exports reached a record high in fiscal 2006 at $68.7 billion, some $6.2 billion higher than the record set in fiscal 2005. The export value for Wheat and Products is up 5 percent over 2005 at $6.2 billion. This increase is largely due to wheat products as the value of wheat exports is largely unchanged from 2005 to 2006. Wheat shipments are down roughly 5 percent from 2005. Wheat remains the third largest U.S. agricultural export group in fiscal 2006. Feed Grains and Products became the largest valued agricultural export commodity in 2006 at $8.7 billion— growing some $2 billion over fiscal 2005. Nearly all of this growth is related to corn as export values grew from $4.7 billion in fiscal 2005 to $6.2 billion in 2006. While corn export value is up 32 percent, the increase is not just price related— the volume of corn shipped is also up nearly 25 percent over 2005. Concerns about market access continue to challenge global meat trade. Beef exports from the United States to Japan and South Korea have yet to fully resume, although trade with other markets has been restored. As a result. Live Animals and Meat export values are up 19 percent over 2005. Beef and veal exports are still about half the 2003 level but are up 70 percent over 2005.
