agriculture, Montana producers must
have accurate information and
statistics. The information
contained in this bulletin assists
agricultural producers in evaluating
alternatives and in making informed
decisions within a dynamic industry.
Ensuring access to desired and useful
information is part of our effort to
improve the business environment in
our great state.
Increasingly, today's agriculture is
becoming a complex, technologically
advanced business, one that requires
sophisticated management, marketing,
and investment decisions. The
agricultural statistics bulletin
helps Montana producers capitalize on
opportunities and become more
competitive in the markets with which they must deal.
Through the dedication and persistence of agricultural business
people, our state's number one industry has endured many difficulties.
Montana producers continue to provide consumers with an abundance of
excellent quality products. Enhanced opportunities for agricultural
products processed in Montana have functioned to create and maintain
jobs. This places more value on our excellent agricultural products.
With our exceptional high quality products, we will continue to make
agriculture the economic basis of Montana.

Foreword 3
MESSAGE FROM
THE DIRECTOR
Considering the economic and
climatic adversities facing our
agricultural industry today, it
is essential that relevant
statistical information be
available to producers and
agriculturally related
businesses.
The dynamic nature of the
agricultural business environment
challenges Montana producers to make
quality decisions. These decisions
are a product of concise and reliable
information. The statistics found in
this bulletin will help reduce
uncertainties, facilitate more
informed decisions and enable Montana
agriculture to project a positive position with respect to the future
use of our land and other resources.
Montana's economic foundation is agriculture, its largest and most
important industry. It is the foundation that allows our farmers and
ranchers to readily adapt to changes in the industry. The continual
changes that occur in agriculture make access to accurate information
an essential aspect of conducting business.
With relevant and timely information, Montana producers can advance in
areas such as biotechnology, world markets, and better quality
products of added value. It is essential that Montana's agricultural
industry be prepared to capitalize on these advances.
Sincerely,
q^OmlM
Everett M. Snortland
Director

NOTES FROM
THE STATE
STATISTICIAN
This year's edition of "Montana Agricultural
Statistics" marks the twenty-ninth year that we
have issued this publication for use by
Montana's agricultural community. A big thank
you is owed all of Montana's farmers, ranchers
and agri-businessmen for their willingness to
provide the basic information that is the
foundation of all of these estimates. Without
their continued support this publication would
not be possible.
Since cattle and calf production is the largest single enterprise in Montana's number one
industry, agriculture, we chose to highlight that segment on our bulletin cover this year.
Producers in the Treasure State faced many difficulties this past year. The crop year started
out very dry, then in June it turned wet and cool, aphids and weeds became a problem in
many areas of the state and to top it off we received several inches of snow during the latter
part of August in many locations. Despite all of these problems, Montana's producers
persevered.
As you look over this report, please feel free to pass on your comments and suggestions.
Again, thank all of you for your support. Thanks also to our staff of statisticians, technicians
and enumerators who are dedicated to providing Montana 's agriculture with high quality
statistics. A special thank you to Wendy Bruski, who had overall responsibility for the layout,
design, and production of this report.

NORTHERN TRACTOR RESOURCE CENTER
AND AGRICULTURAL TRACTOR PERFORMANCE

Is your tractor properly weighted?
Does your tractor have the correct amount of tire slip?
Is the front-to-rear weight split proper on your 4X4 tractor?
Do your tractor tires have correct inflation pressures?
Does your tractor ride rough or have power hop problems
Are you wasting fuel and drastically reducing your power train life?
Are you putting horsepower to work?
In response to the needs of farm machinery owners, a team of faculty at
Northern Montana College in Havre, Montana, is establishing a tractor resource center.
The center will provide in-the-field agricultural tractor testing, set-up, agricultural
tractor/equipment clinics, and collect and disseminate tractor and equipment
performance information. The Center's main goal will be to assist agricultural
producers in putting horsepower to work.
The center v^ll be affiliated with Northern Montana College, which has a mission
of applied technology and the center will work closely v^dth the Alberta Farm Machinery
Research Centre (AFMRC) in Lethbridge, Alberta. AFMRC has an established reputation
as a testing center for agricultural implements and equipment and is in close proximity
to Havre, Montana. The Resource Center will network with equipment manufacturers,
dealers, the extension service and others to cooperatively provide a unique service for
farmers throughout the region.

Resource Center activities will result in improved agricultural tractor and machinery
performance and help maximize net returns for Montana and Alberta prairie region farmers through
savings on repair, maintenance, and fuel. The Center will also provide opportunities for Northern
Montana College technology students.
Resource Center and AFMRC personnel have developed an on-board data acquisition package
allowing dynamic in-field tractor performance testing. The instrumentation consists of: (1) A lap-top
computer for on-board data acquisition; (2) A 50,000 pound load cell for measuring draft; (3) Two
radar guns for measuring wheel and ground speeds; (4) An accelerometer for measuring bounce
(ride characteristics); (4) An electronic tachometer for engine rpm; (5) Various gauges for monitoring
engine performance; (6) Portable electronic platform scales for determining tractor weight and front
and rear weight splits; (7) A dynamic fuel consumption device (being developed).
Tractors are instrumentated and then a series of runs are made at varied implement depths
and in selected gear and rpm ranges. The on-board data acquisition package records all information
dynamically at five times per second and each run is recorded on disk. A discussion will be held with
each operator on field speeds, cultivator depth, gear selection, etc. The center will be sensitive to the
specific farming methods of each individual producer. Tests will be conducted at the farm site with
the farmer's implement so the tractor performance is tuned for the conditions it vAW be working in.
Drawbar horsepower v^U be calculated from each run and the results compared wdth typical
engine horsepower and tractor weight performance levels. Ballast amounts, weight distribution, tire
pressures and other variables can be adjusted and modified to improve tractive performance. Engines
and drive train components will be checked prior to testing to be sure they are capable of performing
properly. Areas of consideration are: fuel quality, fuel restriction and the fuel system, air intake and
exhaust gas restriction, blowrby, idle and no-load high idle rpm, fluid levels and leaks, turbo boost
pressures, tire pressures and cooling system integrity. Tractors are subjected to maximum
performance levels of drawbar horsepower and tractive effort during the test procedure.
Tractor center services may include: (1) The locating and isolating of mechanical problems
(minor repairs may be immediately made but major repairs must be arranged); (2) Liquid ballast
removal and replacement; (3) In-field weighing for proper total tractor weight and front to rear
splits; (4) Tire pressure management based on the tractor's static load, with emphasis on radial tires;
(5) Computerized in-field testing and report summaries; (6) Adjusting and modifying tractors and
equipment for optimum performance.
NOTE: Northern Tractor Resource personnel should be available to test and customize agricultural
tractors during the spring and summer of 1993. Center coordinators (Greg Clouse, Lynn Stilger, Tom
Welch) can be reached at Northern Montana College, Havre, MT 59501 or called at
(406) 265-3700.
NOTE: Development monies and other tractor center resources were provided by: Montana Wheat &
Barley Committee, Montana Growth Through Agriculture Program, Economic Development
Administration, BearPaw Development, Burlington Northern Railroad, First Security Bank of Havre,
First Bank of Havre and Bank of Montana of Havre, Northern Montana College and the Alberta Farm
Machinery Research Centre.

providing an evaluation of pest management problems and programs; training and licensing of
government and commercial pesticide applicators and dealers; and providing analytical laboratory and
consultative services to other agencies and the public.
The passage of the Montana Agricultural Chemical Ground Water Protection Act (1990) provides
that the department will protect ground water and the environment from impairment or degradation due
to the use of agricultural chemicals.
The Vertebrate Pest Management program provides on-site demonstrations, educational materials
and technical bulletins to assist producers in reducing damage caused by field rodents, birds and other
large mammals.
The Weed Management program is responsible for administering statewide efforts aimed at
control and/or eradication of noxious and other undesirable weeds.
The Plant Industry Division is responsible for the administration and enforcement of regulatory
laws controlling the production, manufacturing, and marketing of agricultural commodities exported
fi-om or distributed within Montana. The division investigates consumer complaints; performs technical
expertise and licenses for 650 nurseries, 530 feed dealers, 215 fertilizer dealers, 315 seed dealers, and
195 grain merchandisers. The division also registers some 4,500 commercial feed products and 1,400
fertilizers, and 5,000 bee yards.
The Agriciiltural Development Division is responsible for administering programs directed at
promoting and enhancing Montana agriculture. The Agriculture Finance program is responsible for
making grants and lower interest-rate loans for rural youth, rural youth organizations, and other
qualified farmers and ranchers. The State Hail Insurance program insures any type of crop grown in
Montana ft-om losses caused by hail damage.
The Marketing Program is responsible for market enhancement and development through direct
market development activities, grants, seed capital loan investments in new/innovative marketing, and
product development. Statewide agricultural statistics and projections are developed through a
Federal/State cooperative agreement administered through the division, which are made available
through a comprehensive agricultural statistics bulletin and grain movement summary along with other
production, price, and income reports. Research and market development efforts are promoted for alfalfa
seed through the Montana Alfalfa Seed Committee.
The division is responsible for promoting and encouraging intensive scientific and practical
research in all phases of wheat culture, production, and marketing under the guidelines and policies
developed by the Montana Wheat and Barley Committee. Similar research and market development
efforts are promoted for alfalfa seed through the Montana Alfalfa Seed Committee.

MONTANA CROP, LIVESTOCK, AND WEATHER DIGEST, 1991
JANUARY: Soils in the plains remained niostly dry, and most of the snow cover was in the
eastern third of the state. Above normal temperatures melted the snow pack in the winter
wheat areas, but very little wind damage occurred. The warmer temperatures opened grazing
in many locations with roughly a third of the area open to grazing for the month.
FEBRUARY: Winter wheat broke dormancy a little ahead of normal due to warmer
temperatures. The condition of the crop was somewhat poor due to inadequate moisture in
the fall and freeze damage in December. The soils remained mostly dry during the month.
Grazing was mostly open.
MARCH: The month was warm and dry with soils in most areas short of both topsoil and
subsoil moisture. Very little freeze damage to wdnter wheat occurred. Calving and lambing
was continuing under ideal conditions.
APRIL: Field tillage and small grain seeding started at the usual time with mostly dry soils at
the beginning of the month. By the end of the month, soil moisture was much improved and
seeding was on schedule with about half the acreage in the ground.
MAY: Small grain seeding fell behind normal at mid-month as rain and cool temperatures
prevailed. By the end of May seeding was only slightly behind normal, but emergence was
delayed by cool temperatures.
JUNE: June was cool and wet. This promoted good growth and development of crops, but
made early hay harvest difficult.
JULY: The weather turned warm and dry providing good haying conditions. Small grains were
mostly good to excellent, and winter wheat harvest began at the end of the month.
AUGUST: Winter wheat harvest neared completion at month's end, slightly behind schedule
because of heavy yields and scattered showers. Harvest of other small grains was near the
normal pace to slightly behind normal. Crop conditions were mostly good to excellent.
SEPTEMBER: Topsoil moisture was mostly short the first half of the month, but improved
with later rains. Winter wheat seeding by months end was ahead of normal. Other small
grain harvest was virtually complete, slightly ahead of normal.
OCTOBER: Most of the month was warm and dry allowing late season crops to be harvested
under good conditions. The last week of the month brought sudden change to cold and wet.
NOVEMBER: Extreme cold early in November caught winter wheat v^th little or no snow
cover protection. Supplemental feeding of livestock was ushered in earlier than usual as snow
limited grazing at mid-month.
DECEMBER: Warm, dry weather left winter wheat without snow protection, but opened
grazing in most areas.

96 Agricultural Exports
Montana Agricultural Statistics 1992
AGRICULTURAL EXPORTS
The value of Montana agricultural commodities exported during the year ending
September 30, 1991 totaled $228.0 million, down 46 percent from a year earlier. This
decrease was most apparent in the wheat and feed grain categories. These two commodities
contributed 78 percent of Montana's exports.
Value of United States agricultural exports for the year ending September 30 totaled
$37,609.0 million, down 6 percent from the previous year. Wheat and feed grain products
accounted for 27 percent of the nation's agricultural exports.
Montana ranked seventh among all states in the export of wheat and wheat products in
fiscal year 1991 compared with fifth place last year. North Dakota moved into the top
position, followed by Kansas, Washington, Oklahoma, Idaho and Minnesota. California
remained the top exporting state of all products, followed by Iowa, Illinois, Texas, and
Nebraska.
While bulk products such as wheat, coarse grains, and soybeans declined in fiscal year
1991, U.S. exports of high value agricultural products set a new record of $20.4 billion.
