TO THE PEOPLE OF
THE STATE OF MONTANA
This statistical bulletin, the tenth in a series of biennial
publications titled "Montana Agricultural Statistics" has been
compiled through the joint efforts of our own Department of
Agriculture and the United States Department of Agriculture.
The information in this issue should prove to be a valuable
reference to our producers, processors and other people engaged
in marketing Montana's high quality products, and in planning
the future course of agriculture in our State.
Agriculture is by far the leading industry in Montana, and I
know you will wish to join me in a salute to the many people
responsible for assembling the statistical information contained
in this important pubHcation. In this our centennial year we
can reflect with pride on the significant contribution the
output of our farms and ranches has made to the economy of this
great State of which we ore so profoundly proud.
Sincerely,
STATE OF MONTANA
MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER
It would seem now, during this our centennial year with all its glamour, color, and progress
being revealed all over the State, is a most fitting time to reflect on our great agricultural heritage
and the changes and developments which have taken place. In no industry in our modern complex
economy has the change been greater than in agriculture. From the simple needs of the individual
farm, self-sufficient in nature; which actually is the basis for the founding of this great country, has
emerged the most highly specialized and technical agricultural plant the world has ever known.
Montana with its highly specialized ranching industry producing the very finest meat in the
nation, and its huge grain farms producing the very highest quality wheat, is certainly an integral
part of this highly technical agricultural machine.
Agriculture has been able to grow and prosper in Montana as in other parts of this country
because of a recognition of the need for basic facts concerning the industry. In today's agriculture,
an uninformed operator can no longer be successful as either a producer or marketer of an agricul-
tural commodity. Statistics concerning production, prices, marketing and conservation are as basic
to successful operation of the farm and agri-business as any of the raw materials of agriculture.
Recognizing the need for these vital statistics as an aid to both the producer and the marketer,
the Montana State Department of Agriculture has joined with the United States Department of
through the Crop Reporting Service to provide these useful and helpful statistics.
It is with the greatest of pride and pleasure that I present this tenth in a series of "Montana
Agricuhural Statistics." It represents the cooperative efforts of many people interested in the
continued progress of agriculture in Montana. I recommend it most highly for people who are
charting the future course of our most important industry.

4 AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS
FOREWORD
Agriculture is Montana's leading industry. Cash receipts from farm marketings and govern-
ment payments totaled $430.1 million in 1963. Montana farms and ranches provided employment
for 65,000 persons, and related enterprises furnished employment for many more.
Agriculture is undergoing constant change. Average farm size is expanding. Investment in
the farm enterprise continues to rise. Yields are being pushed to new highs. The relative importance
of a single farm unit to the economy of the community, State, and Nation is increasing.
Complete and accurate information contributes to the success of any enterprise, v\^hether farm
unit, private business or corporation. Many people are aware of the annual changes in agriculture
but it is the job of the Statistical Reporting Service to measure these changes. The statistics in this
bulletin provide the "yardstick" for measuring the relative prosperity of Montana's foremost
industry.
The data in this publication were assembled with the cooperation of public-spirited Montana
people who voluntarily provided confidential information concerning their individual operations.
While most of the basic information was obtained from farmers and ranchers, much supplemental
mformation was acquired from sugar beet companies, mills and elevators, bean companies, seed
processors and dealers, slaughter plants, hatcheries, manufacturers of dairy products, auction
markets, railroad companies and others.
State agencies, in addition to those in the Montana State Department of Agriculture which
contributed significantly were the Livestock Commission, Livestock Sanitary Board, Railroad and
Public Service Commission, and the Board of Equalization. Agencies of the U. S. government
which furnished extensive record material were the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation
Service, Soil Conservation Service, Weather Bureau, and the Extension Service. Credit and thanks
are due to these and all others who assisted the Statistical Reporting Service in making data
available. Funds for the printing of this publication were furnished by the Montana State
Department of Agriculture.
The text and statistical data presented in this bulletin were prepared by the staff of the
Statistical Reporting Service, United States Department of Agriculture, under the direction of T. J.
Kuzelka, Agricultural Statistician in Charge. Staff members who contributed significantly in the
preparation of this issue were G. Dean Hasenmyer, Olav Rogness, W. Robert Cotton, Sherman B.
Winings and Cecil N. Ullom, Agricultural Statisticians. Grace A. Cross, Statistical Assistant
and clerks Roy D. Jones, Ollie K. Mires, Ruth E. Francis, Eleanor A. Teigen and Frances C. Zuehlke
had major responsibility for computations and typing.
Offices of the Statistical Reporting Service are located at 208 McGaffick Steamboat Block, 616
Helena Avenue, Helena, Montana. Estimates published by this agency are available to anyone
without charge by writing to the Agricultural Statistician, Post Office Box 1726, Helena, Montana,

In This Issue
This bulletin contains much information other than county and State data on crop and livestock
production. It brings together pertinent data such as climate, government payments, farm income,
protein premiums for wheat, varieties of wheat and barley, and other facts. A brief explanatory
discussion of the important items in this issue is as follows:
The Crop and Livestock History for 1962 and 1963 is given on pages 6 and 7. The text
describes the weather and other factors affecting crop production and livestock marketings, and
gives comparisons with previous years.
Cash Receipts, pages 11 to 15, exclude cash values of agricultural products used on farms
STATE OF MONTANA 5
and ranches. The chart on page 13 shows the portion of the total receipts that are represented by
the major crops, classes of livestock, and livestock products.
Climate Data, page 16 for selected stations give the rainfall and temperatures by counties.
Climate may vary widely between various locations because of the changes in elevations.
State Crop Tables, pages 18 to 28, give total, irrigated and not irrigated data for 10 years,
1954-63. Crops grown principally or entirely on irrigated and not irrigated land are appropriately
designated by sub-titles.
County Crop Tables, pages 29 to 68, present 1962 and 1963 estimates for the total crop, and
for portions grown on irrigated land and not irrigated land. No estimates were made for counties
with insignificant production.
Wheat Production by Protein Groups, pages 40 to 42, is presented in tabular form for the
1962 and 1963 crops. Base prices and protein premiums reflect the value of premiums for spring
wheat excluding durum, and for winter wheat for the five crop years, 1959 to 1963.
Variety Tables for Wheat on pages 43 to 45, and for Barley on page 54, give the percentages
each variety represents of the county and State totals. The State table gives percentages of leading
varieties for the years 1959 to 1964 for wheat and 1958 to 1964 for barley. Cheyenne, with 79
percent of the total winter wheat acreage, was by for the leading variety of winter wheat seeded
for harvest in 1964; and Thatcher led the other spring wheat class with 38 percent of the total.
The most important durum wheat varieties were Wells and Langdon. Leading barley varieties
were Compana and Betzes which together represented 69 percent of the barley acreage seeded
in 1964.
State Livestock Tables, pages 69 to 74, present data for the years 1954 to 1964. They continue
the series published in previous volumes on inventory numbers, by age and sex groups, disposition
and value of the principal kinds of livestock and livestock products.
County Livestock Tables, pages 75 to 77, list the January 1 inventory numbers of livestock,
including chickens, for the years 1962, 1963 and 1964.
Cattle Movement Tables, pages 78 to 86, list the number of cattle reported on brand inspection
certificates of the Montana Livestock Commission. These statistics provide detailed data on the
number of steers, heifers, cows, bulls, calves and unclassified cattle which moved across county
lines within the State, and out of the State. Separate totals are given for inspections at local
country points, Montana markets and designated markets in other States.
Information on cattle movement, wheat varieties and wheat
protein was assembled with the help of State funds matched
with Federal funds received from the Agricultural Marketing
Service, United Stales Department of Agriculture, under the
provisions of the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946.
6 AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS
MONTANA CROPS AND LIVESTOCK— 1962
The 1962 season was one of abundant production, and was in sharp contrast to the droughty
1961 crop year. The aggregate 1962 crop harvest was 38 percent above the 1951-60 overage. Crops
were harvested from 8.2 million acres compared with 7.6 million in 1961. Soils were dry in
practically all non-irrigated areas until May 11, when moderate to heavy rainfall broke the
drought statewide, except in a portion of the north central district. The timely rainfall encouraged
farmers and ranchers to seed more spring wheat, barley and other crops than in 1961. However,
the growing season was shorter than usual as killing frosts occurred during the first week
of September, about three weeks ahead of normal. While most of the small grains were already
harvested in advance of the frosts, growth of late maturing grains, as well as com, beans,
potatoes, seeds and hay crops was terminated and yields were curtailed somewhat.
Crops: Production of all wheat in 1962 totaled 78,297,000 bushels, nearly twofold the drought-
reduced 1961 crop. This placed Montana third in wheat production in the Nation. The harvested
acreage was the lowest since 1942 primarily because of acreage controls, above normal hail
losses, and abandonment from drought in several north central counties. The reduction in acreage
was more than offset by higher yields per acre. Winter wheat output, at 37,136,000 bushels, was
5 percent under the 1961 crop, mainly because of reduced acreage resulting from heavy abandon-
ment which occurred before the rains came in May. Durum production of 6,696,000 bushels was
the highest since 1957 and almost five times the previous year's crop. Other spring wheat totaled
34,201,000 bushels, two and one-half times the drought reduced 1961 crop. This gave Montana
second rank in the production of other spring wheat in 1962. Yield per acre of this class was the
highest since 1915 and exceeded winter wheat for the first time since 1928.
The barley crop totaled 54,961,000 bushels, a new record high and more than double the 1961
production. Montana ranked third among the States as a barley producer in 1962. Oats output of
10,783,000 bushels was the largest since 1955.
Alfalfa seed at only 520,000 pounds was equal to the lowest of record. Crested wheatgrass
seed production totaled 1,564,000 pounds, over two times the average, and also the highest of any
State. The mustard seed crop at 20,180,000 pounds was the largest of any State, and compared
with 16,020,000 pounds in 1961.
The sugar beet crop w^as curtailed by the short gro'wing season, and at 838,000 tons, was 6
percent below the 1961 tonnage. Potato production, at 1,248,000 cwt., was down 13 percent from
1961, and production of dry beans at 204,000 cwt. was 8 percent smaller.
Hay cuttings totaled 3,488,000 tons, a record high which exceeded the previous record of
3,195,000 tons in 1927. Of this total, 1,983,000 tons were alfalfa; 633,000 tons were wild hay; 392,000
tons were clover-timothy and the remainder was other tame hay including grain hey, wheatgrass
hay, and miscellaneous mixtures. Montana ranked 5th in wild hay, 12th in all hay, and 14th in
alfalfa hay production in 1962.
Production of sour cherries in 1962 totaled 240 tons compared with a record high crop of 570
tons in 1961. Sweet cherry output at 2,400 tons was the largest of record. The apple crop totaled
25,000 bushels as compared with 40,000 bushels in 1961.
Livestock: Montana's cattle and calf population increased 9 percent during 1962 to 2,325,000
head on January 1, 1963. Good grazing conditions during the summer and fall of 1962 encouraged
ranchers to restock up to and beyond predrought levels. Beef cattle prices advanced from a low
of S18.20 per cwt. for the year in July to a high of S24.00 per cwt. in September. For the 1962
calendar year the average price at $21.02 was $1.60 per cwt. higher than a year earlier. Calf
prices reached a peak in December and at $30.00 per cwt., were the highest of any month since
October 1959. The yearly average price of calves at $28.05 compared with $25.48 in 1961. Market-
ings of cattle and calves during 1962 totaled 920,000 head, a decrease of 16 percent from the
previous year. Montana ranked 14th in numbers of cattle and calves on January 1, 1963.
Sheep and lambs numbered 1,581,000 head on January 1, 1963, a decrease of 1 percent during
the year. On January 1, 1963, Montana ranked sixth in the number of sheep and lambs.
Hogs on farms January 1, 1963 totaled 154,000 compared with 148,000 head a year earlier.
The chicken population at 1,129,000 birds represented a decrease of 34,000 for the year.

MONTANA CROPS AND LIVESTOCK— 1963*
The 1963 growing season was very favorable for crops and livestock production. It was one
of the longest frost-free growing seasons of record. Rainfall was timely and generally adequate in
all areas except part of the north central district centering on Liberty County which experienced
drought for the third consecutive year. Portions of adjoining counties including Toole, Pondera,
Teton, Chouteau and Hill were also droughty. However, elsewhere in the State growing conditions
were much above average. The prolonged growing period resulted in above average yields for
late maturing crops, such as com, beans, potatoes, hay, sugar beets, and alfalfa and red clover
seeds.
Crops: Production of all wheat totaled 89,869,000 bushels. This was the largest crop since
1958, and the seventh largest in 91 years of records. It placed Montana third in wheat production
in the Nation. The winter wheat crop at 49,166,000 bushels, was the largest in 55 years. About
75 percent of the winter wheat acreage was seeded with the Cheyenne variety and next in order
were Karmont with 10 percent and Itana with 7 percent. The durum wheat crop totaled 3,848,000
bushels, down sharply from the large 1962 output. Montana's production was exceeded only by
North Dakota. Leading varieties of durum in 1963 were Langdon with 42 percent of the total
acreage; Stewart, 22 percent; and Wells, 18 percent. Production of other spring wheat at 36,855,000
bushels was the largest since 1956. This established Montana as the second ranking State in
production of this class of wheat. The leading variety, Thatcher with 39 percent of the acreage,
was followed by Chinook with 17 percent and Centana with 10 percent.
Production of barley, at 44,663,000 bushels, was 19 percent under the 1962 record-high but 3
percent above the 1957-61 average. Montana ranked third in the Nation in barley being surpassed
only by North Dakota and California. The leading varieties were Compana with 63 percent of the
seeded acreage; Betzes, 21 percent; and Unitan, 6 percent.
The oats crop at 9,801,000 bushels was 9 percent smaller than in 1962 but exceeded the
average by 24 percent.
Flaxseed production in 1963 totaled 340,000 bushels, nearly half again as large as the
230,000 bushels produced in 1962.
The output of sugar beets was boosted to an all-time high for Montana by the exceptionally
long frost-free growing season and a large acreage. The crop totaled 1,169,000 tons. The acreage
harvested was the largest since 1947 and the average yield per acre was at an unprecedented
high of 17.8 tons. Because of the long growing season, beets attained larger sizes than normal
and tonnage was increased significantly. Montana was the eighth ranking State in sugar beet
production in 1963.
The potato crop totaled 1,382,000 cwt., 11 percent above 1962. Yield at 180 cwt. per acre tied
with 1961 for the record high. Production of dry beans at 224,000 cwt., clean basis, placed Montana
in tenth place among States in 1963. The yield of 1,870 pounds per acre was likewise the highest of
record.
Production of seeds was much above average in 1963. The alfalfa seed crop at 11.5 million
pounds, clean basis, was the largest ever produced in Montana and placed Montana sixth among
States. Production of crested wheatgrass seed totaled 990,000 pounds. Although this was sharply
lower than the 1962 crop of 1,564,000 pounds, it was about two-fifths more than the 5-year average.
Montana was the top ranking State in the production of this seed. Red clover seed output of 371,000
pounds was the largest since 1959, and a large part of the crop was certified seed. Because of
droughty conditions in the north central counties, the mustard seed crop totaling 14,250,000 was the
smallest since 1957.
Montana farmers and ranchers harvested a record 3,561,000 tons of hay during 1963. Cuttings
of alfalfa totaled 2,044,000 tons, largest of record, and 657,000 tons of wild hay were harvested.
The sour cherry production of 30 tons was the smallest since 1960 and the sweet cherry crop
of 40 tons tied with 1943 and 1951 for the lowest production of record. The apple crop of 35,000
bushels was 17 percent below average.
Livestock: The number of cattle and calves on Montana farms and ranches increased 15
percent during 1963 to 2,674,000 head on January 1, 1964, a new record high for the State. This
promoted Montana to 12th rank in the Nation in number of cattle and calves. Low prices of cattle
and liberal supplies of feed influenced many ranchers to hold more cattle.
The number of sheep and lambs, including lambs on feed, at 1,583,000 head, was only slightly
larger than the 1,581,000 a year earlier and established Montana as the sixth ranking sheep State.
Hog numbers at 171,000 head on January 1, 1964 were 11 percent above January 1, 1963, and
the chicken population totaling 1,056,000 was down 6 percent.

located near Kremlin in Hill County. This county ranks fourth in the Nation
in acreage of wheat harvested, and adjoins Chouteau which is second
only to Whitman County, Washington.
