Box 1726 Helena, Montana TRIBUNE PRINTING ' GREAT FALLS. MONTANA DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE HELENA. MONTANA November 27, 1962 TO THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MONTANA The preparation of this valuable booklet, which is published on a biennial basis is made possible by joint effort of the United States Department of Agriculture and our own State Department of Agriculture. The volume contains much needed agricultural statistical information of great value to both public and private organizations and serves as an authentic guide in helping them arrive at decisions beneficial to both themselves and the welfare of the people of Montana. As agriculture and livestock are the leading sources of income in this great state I am sure you wish to join me in paying tribute to those who have had an important part in bringing this wealth of information together for the benefit of all concerned. Sincerely, STATE OF MONTANA 3 MESSAGE FROM THE COMMISSIONER Income from Montana farming and ranching enterprises exceeds that from any other single source. Capital investments are large and risks are high. In order to make proper decisions and thus minimize these risks, it is imperative that those engaged in agriculture have access to up-to- date statistics on the inventory, prices and output of agricultural commodities. The Montana Department of Agriculture and the Statistical Reporting Service of the United States Department of Agriculture cooperate in collecting and publishing many statistics pertaining to grains, livestock, dairy, and poultry. This cooperation eliminates duplication of effort and helps provide broader coverage and more accurate statistics. Additional data not obtained under the cooperative program are collected by the Federal agency. This bulletin includes information collected by both the State and Federal Departments of Agriculture as well qs some additional data obtained from the Weather Bureau and other State and Federal agencies. Statistics are important to any well managed business. In addition to being useful to farmers and ranchers, agricultural statistics are widely used by manufacturers, transportation companies, processors, storage facility operators, research workers and others. This is indicated by the many requests from these segments of the economy. Knowledge about farm production is important in making agriculture-business decisions effecting the continued growth of our State. Reliable infor- mation on production of crops and livestock reduces the risk confronting buyers of farm products. Under the stimulus of fair competition, buyers can pay Montana producers higher prices for the inherent good quality of Montana grown wheat, barley, livestock and other products, than could be paid if uncertainty of production existed. Official crop and livestock reports eliminate the adverse effects of misleading reports that could be circulated for private gain. The statistics provided in this bulletin give an accurate, unbiased picture of Montana's agricultural output. A review of the bulletin will reveal many significant facts. Among them will be the disclosure that the number of Montana farms has declined from 57,700 in 1920 to 31,600 in 1961. Consolidation of farms is continuing at a current rate of about 400 per year. The average size of farm increased by 21 percent during the 12-year period ending in 1961, and all land in farms increased 3 percent — from 65,000,000 acres to 66,800,000 acres. A decline in Montana's agricultural prosperity in 1961 as a result of the severe drought, is indicated by the total cash receipts from farm marketings. These receipts at 365.3 million dollars were 12 percent below the previous five-year average of 416.0 million dollars. Fortunately, the 1962 crop year, with bountiful crops of grain and abundance of grass for livestock, once again restored our agriculture to a strong, healthy status. We trust that you will find this statistical report to be informative and valuable to you. Montana Commissioner of Agi (J . \lu^e Ji P iir d y 4 AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS FOREWORD Agriculture is Montana's leading industry and a large part, of the State's economy depends on agricultural enterprises. Montana is endowed with vast acreages of productive farms and range land, and good water resources for irrigation. An abundance of crop and livestock production is one of the rewards enjoyed by farmers and ranchers. The State is blessed with industrious, intelligent, and resourceful rural people who put the results of agricultural research to work. They have learned to produce efficiently and continue to adjust to changes brought about by improved means of transportation, new methods of processing and packaging so as to meet the ever-changing market demands. Montana stands out among States in our Nation as one of the important pro- ducers of foods and other materials, and is especially outstanding in production of high quality wheat, barley, beef cattle and sheep. The number of farms and ranches is steadily declining in Montana but their size, as well as the all land in farms is increasing. In an era when a considerable acreage of farm land is being utilized for highway construction, housing and industrial developments, and State and Federal projects, the farm land base in Montana is increasing. This is unique in comparison with many other States whose cropland acreage is shrinking. It indicates that Montana has an expanding and progressive agriculture. Signs of this are evident each year as business establishments are expand- ing and new industries are locating in the State. The year 1962 is the Centennial Year of the United States Department of Agriculture and the Centennial phrase "Growth through Agricultural Progress" is also symbolic of Montana's growth. One of the responsibilities of agricultural leaders is to make available to farmers and ranchers, and industries associated with agriculture, comprehensive statistical information which is useful in planning future production. The statistics presented in this biennial bulletin fills the bulk of this responsibility. The Statistical Reporting Service is the principal agency which assembles and publishes information on production of crops, livestock and livestock products, inventories, supplies, and prices. This agency compiles the official estimates for Montana and is located in Room 208, McGaffick Steamboat Block, 616 I-felena Avenue, Helena, Montana. In order to fill the need for county and district data not available under the Federal program, the work of this agency is coordinated and carried on cooperatively with that of the Montana State Department of Agriculture. This bulletin has been prepared under the cooperative agreement of the State and Federal Depart- ments of Agriculture. Funds appropriated by the Montana State Legislature have made it possible to prepare and publish county estimates for all major crops and livestock items produced in the State. This detailed information is in constant demand by many interested Montana people and others who are directly and indirectly connected with agriculture. The information in this bulletin has been assembled from various sources. For most crops and livestock items the basic data were furnished by Montana farmers and ranchers. Much supple- mental information was obtained from private enterprises including sugar beet companies, mills and elevators, bean companies, seed processors and dealers, slaughter plants, hatcheries, manu- facturers of dairy products, auction markets, railroads 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. U. S. governmental agencies which furnished extensive record material v\^ere 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. In This Issue This bulletin contains much supplemental information in addition to the county and State data on crop and livestock production. It brings together pertinent climatological records, government payments, farm income, protein premiums for wheat, wheat and barley varieties, and much other information. A brief explanatory discussion of the important items in this issue is as follows: The Crop and Livestock History for 1960 and 1961 is given on pages 6 to 8. The text describes the weather and other factors affecting crop production and livestock marketings. The summaries also give comparisons with previous years. Cash Receipts, pages 11 to 15, exclude cash values of agricultural products used on farms and ranches. Receipts from marketings of crops were sharply reduced in 1961 by the severe drought. The shortage of range feeds and grains in large areas of the State forced some liquidation of live- STATE OF MONTANA 5 stock thus increasing sales which held cash receipts from livestock fairly close to the level of 1960. 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 present a pattern of moisture and temperatures by counties. Climate may vary widely between these locations because of the great changes in elevations from mountain tops to valleys. State Crop Tables, pages 18 to 28, give total, irrigated and not irrigated data for 10 years 1952-61. Crops grown principally or entirely under irrigation and on not irrigated land are appropriately designated by sub-titles. County Crop Tables, pages 29 to 68, present 1960 and 1961 estimates for the total crop, and also separately for the portions of the crop grown on irrigated land and on 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 1960 and 1961 crops. Base prices and protein premiums reflect the value of premiums for spring wheat excluding durum, and for winter wheat during the five crop years, 1957 to 1961. Variety Tables for Wheat on pages 43 to 45, and for Barley on page 54, give county and State data on percentage of total each variety represents. The State table contains percentages for leading varieties for the years 1958 to 1962. Cheyenne, with 80 percent of the total acreage, was by far the leading variety of winter wheat seeded for harvest in 1962. Declines were indicated for other important varieties, with the exception of Itana which showed a steady gain for the fourth consecutive year. Thatcher, with over 37 percent of the total, continues to lead ail other spring wheat varieties, but Chinook, Centana, and Ceres also increased in 1962 compared with 1961. The most important durum wheat varieties were Langdon and Stewart. Leading barley varieties were Compana and Betzes which together represented 90 percent of the barley acreage seeded in 1962. State Livestock Tables, pages 69 to 74, present data for the years 1952-1962. 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 1960, 1961 and 1962. 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 within the State and out of the State. The tabulations make available separate totals for inspection at local country points, Montana markets, and designated markets in other States. Gross and net county totals for counties have been prepared. Information on cattle movement and wheat protein was assembled with the help of State funds matched with Federal funds received from the Agricultural Marketing Service, United States Department of Agriculture, under the provisions of the Agricultural Marketing Act of 1946. 6 AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS MONTANA CROPS AND LIVESTOCK— 1960 Total 1960 crop production on a weight basis, excluding fruit, was one percent below 1959 but six percent above the 1949-58 average. The acreage of all crops harvested was down one percent from 1959 and six percent below average. Crops: Moisture supplies were mostly adequate at the beginning of the 1960 growing season and weather was favorable. Field work started in the south central area at normal dates during the latter part of March and made rapid progress. High winds together with only light precipitation during mid-April depleted moisture reserves but heavy snow later in the month and in early May greatly improved the moisture situation. Wet fields delayed field work but warmer weather near the middle of May dried fields and accelerated spring planting. Prospects for the winter wheat crop were bright. Very little had winter-killed and stands were good in nearly all areas. Cool temperatures in May favored stooling. Early growth of spring seeded grains was hindered somewhat by cold temperatures, root rot, and cut worms. Some reseeding was necessary. Spring crops also stooled well. Warm weather in June accelerated growth and crops progressed rapidly until the last week of the month when lack of moisture again slowed growth of non-irrigated crops. By early July, moisture was deficient in virtually all counties. Hot, dry weather forced maturity, and reduced yield prospects. Range grasses matured earlier than normal. The droughty weather continued through August. The exception to the droughty situation was the extreme northeast part of the State where favorable summer rains contributed to one of the best crop seasons in several years. Winter wheat harvest was underway during the last week in July and combining of other small grains began in August. The harvest of small grain crops was completed by mid-September and digging of sugar beets was completed in early November. Production of all wheat in 1960 was 79,397,000 bushels. This was 2 percent above the 1959 crop of 77,974,000 bushels and placed Montana in fifth place in wheat production in the Nation. Winter wheat at 45,954,000 bushels was 4 percent over 1959. Production of spring wheat, excluding durum, at 29,699,000 bushels was 7 percent under the 1959 crop of 31,965,000 bushels. Durum production of 3,744,000 bushels was more than double the previous year's crop. Oats production of 7,530,000 bushels was 4 percent less than the previous year. The barley crop totaled 40,044,000 bushels, a 21 percent decline from a year earlier. The mustard seed crop was estimated at 22,414,000 pounds and ranked an easy first in the nation. This crop compared with 18,528,000 pounds in 1959. The alfalfa seed crop was good and at 5,300,000 pounds it exceeded the 1959 crop by 43 per- cent. Crested wheatgrass seed production was also relatively good. It totaled 675,000 pounds. Montana ranked seventh in the production of sugar beets in 1960 with a crop of 841,000 tons. This was 2 percent larger than the 1959 tonnage. Early frosts reduced the potato crop somewhat and at 1,148,000 cwt., the 1960 output was 8 percent below the previous year. The production of dry beans including mostly Great Northern and Pintos, totaled 200,000 cwt., and compares with 216,000 cwt. in 1959. Hay cuttings were the smallest in 4 years. They totaled 2,900,000 tons, 3 percent under 1959. Of this total 1,762,000 tons were alfalfa, 470,000 tons were wild hay, 331,000 tons were clover- timothy and the remainder was other tame hay including grain hay, wheatgrass hay and miscel- laneous mixtures. Production of sour cherries in 1960 was only 10 tons, the smallest of record. Sweet cherry production totaled 1,400 tons as compared to 1,350 tons in 1959. The apple crop was also the smallest ever harvested and totaled only 20,000 bushels of commercial apples. Livestock: Montana's cattle and calf population decreased 4 percent during 1960 to 2,155,000 head on January 1, 1961. The decline was largely the result of droughty conditions in spring and early summer. The summer and fall months of 1960 were marked with rather violent price changes. Prices received by growers for beef cattle advanced to a peak in April then dropped in July and rose again to a somewhat lower peak in September from which level they declined seasonally. Marketings of cattle and calves during 1960 totaled 1,122,000 head, an increase of 16 percent from 1959. Sheep and lambs numbered 1,768,000 head on January 1, 1961, a decrease of 6 percent during the year 1960. Hogs on farms January 1, 1961 totaled 151,000 head, same as a year earlier. The chicken population at 1,170,000 head on January 1, 1961 represented a decrease of 65,000 for the year. STATE OF MONTANA 7 MONTANA CROPS AND LIVESTOCK— 196 T Total 1961 crop production, excluding fruit, dropped 19 percent from 1960 and was 17 percent below the 1950-59 average. Harvested acreage declined 11 percent from the previous year and was 17 percent below average. Crops: The year 1961 will be remembered by many Montana residents as one of severe drought Extreme moisture shortages during the growing season caused concern among farmers and ranchers in all non-irrigated areas east of the Continental Divide. Although snow cover was inadequate the mild 1960-61 winter temperatures resulted in light winterkill of winter wheat. Warm, dry weather in early spring enabled many farmers to start seeding early — during the latter part of March. How- ever, other farmers in the drier eastern part of the State delayed seedings because of moisture deficiencies. Moderate percipitation during late April and much of May brightened prospects through- out the State, but germination was spotty and somewhat slow. Stands of spring seeded grains turned out better than expected. Light to moderate precipitation during early June benefited crops. However, hot weather and the large requirements of moisture by rapidly growing crops quickly depleted soil moisture supplies east of the Divide. Continued hot, dry weather forced maturity and greatly reduced yields of dry- land crops. For the State as a whole, the June-August period was one of the driest of record. Spring grains suffered the greatest damage as development of winter wheat and rye was far enough ad- vanced so that fairly good yields were attained. The relatively poor outturn of dryland crops was offset to some extent by unusually good yields of most irrigated crops. Harvesting of winter wheat started during the third week in July, nearly two weeks earlier than normal and was concluded by the middle of August. Harvesting of most of the other grain crops also progressed rapidly and most of the acreage was combined by September 5. However, harvest- ing of late season crops including sugar beets, potatoes, safflower, dry beans and corn was slowed by rain and cold weather in mid-September and continued into October. Montana's 1961 all wheat production was the smallest since 1940. It totaled only 54,048,000 bushels, 32 percent less than the 79,397,000 bushels produced in 1960. The small outturn was chiefly the result of a smaller acreage harvested and unfavorable growng conditions for hard spring wheat. The winter wheat production of 39,102,000 bushels was the lowest since 1956 but acreage harvested was the second highest on records beginning in 1909. Output of spring wheat, excluding durum, at 13,518,000 bushels, was less than one-half of the previous year. It was from the smallest acreage harvested since 1919 and the poorest yield since 1937. Durum wheat production was also much below average. Output of barley at 26,370,000 bushels was the lowest since 1953. The yield at 18 bushels per acre, was the poorest since the severe drought year of 1936. Production of oafs totaled only 5,032,000 bushels and was the smallest crop since 1937. The 1961 rye crop was estimated at 495,000, 36 percent below the 1960 production. Acreage and production of flaxseed were both the smallest since estimates for this crop began in 1902. In contrast with the drought-reduced outturn of non-irrigated crops, yields of irrigated crops were very good. Acreage planted to sugar beets at 68,200 was the largest since 1947 and produc- tion totaling 893,000 tons was the largest since 1947. The large production was attained in spite of the fact that several thousand acres of beets froze in the ground and were abandoned. A total of 1,400,000 cwt. of potatoes v/as produced. This was the largest crop since 1950. Most of the acreage was irrigated and yield at 180 cwt. per acre was the largest of record. Production of dry- beans, also principally irrigated, at 240,000 cwt. was the largest since 1954. Yield at 1,850 pounds per acre was the highest of record. Mustard seed production totaled 17,130,000 pounds from 54,000 acres. This compares with 22,414,000 pounds from 87,300 acres in 1960. Alfalfa seed output at 3,200,000 pounds was the lowest since 1938. Production of crested wheatgrass seed, estimated at 300,000 pounds, was the smallest since 1956. Hay crops were also reduced by the droughty condition. All hay production totaled 2,527,000 tons, 13 percent below 1960 and the lowest since 1951. The acreage cut for hay was the smallest since 1941. Cuttings of alfalfa totaled 1,630,000 tons, smallest in 5 years. The 367,000 tons of wild hay harvested was the smallest output since the drought-reduced 1936 crop. The sour cherry production at 570 tons was the largest ever harvested and the sweet cherry- crop at 2,000 tons was exceeded only by the 2,180 tons produced in 1958. The apple crop at 40,000 bushels was about equal to the 5-year average. Livestock: The number of cattle and calves on Montana farms and ranches decreased 2 per- cent during 1961 to 2,112,000 head on January 1, 1962. This was the smallest inventory since January 1, 1952. Prices of beef cattle rose to a peak in April 1961, fell to a low for the year in 1 Based on preliminary data. 8 AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS June as droughty conditions forced some liquidations, then recovered and peaked again in Sep- tember, but then declined seasonally to the end of the year. Prices were lower at the end of the year than at the beginning. Marketings of cattle and calves during 1961 totaled 1,116,000 head, 6,000 less than the 1,122,000 head marketed in 1960. Montana ranked 16th among the states in number of total cattle and calves on farms on January 1, 1962. The January 1, 1962 sheep and lamb inventory, including lambs on feed, was 1,576,000 head, a decline of 1 1 percent compared to a year earlier. Lamb prices which were discouragingly low declined from February until September and recovered only a little by the end of the year. Marketings totaled 1,173,000 head during 1961, 6 percent more than the 1,109,000 head in 1960. Based on numbers of all sheep and lambs on farms and ranches January 1, 1962, Montana was the 7th ranking sheep state in the nation. The hog population decreased 3,000 head during 1961 to 148,000 head. The number of chickens at 1,163,000 head on January 1, 1962 represented a decrease of 7,000 for the year 1961. ALL CROPS.
