July Weather Summary During July, widespread warmth promoted a rapid pace of crop development. However, hot weather led to crop stress in two primary areas-one stretching from the Desert Southwest to the southern Plains and the other extending from the lower Great Lakes region into the middle and northern Atlantic States. Monthly temperatures averaged at least 5°F above normal in several locations across southern New Mexico and western Texas, as well as an area covering the lower Great Lakes States, central Appalachians, and Northeast. In contrast, cooler-than-normal conditions were mostly limited to the northern High Plains and the Northwest. Most of the country's drought remained consolidated across the western half of the United States, although secondary drought areas existed in the western Corn Belt and from the lower Great Lakes region into the Northeast. Nearly two-thirds (63 percent) of the 11-state Western region was in drought on August 4, according to the Drought Monitor. On the same date, drought covered 29 percent of the Northeast but only 8 percent of the Midwest. Nationally, more than one-third (33.5 percent) of the contiguous United States was experiencing drought by early August, up from 25.5 percent at the end of June. Drought coverage was last greater on September 4, 2018. Midwestern drought was most apparent from northeastern Nebraska into central Iowa and across easternmost corn and soybean production areas. Nevertheless, 72 percent of Nation's corn and 73 percent of the soybeans were in good to excellent condition on August 2. On the same date, roughly three-quarters of the Nation's rice (76 percent) and peanuts (73 percent) were rated good to excellent. Meanwhile, some crops across the central and southern High Plains continued to suffer from the effects of heat and drought, despite a turn toward cooler, wetter weather as the month progressed. By August 2, Colorado led the country in very poor to poor ratings for corn (25 percent) and sorghum (26 percent), while Texas led with 24 percent of its cotton rated very poor to poor. In the West, heat- and drought-related stress extended to rangeland and pastures. In early August, Oregon led the country with 70 percent of its rangeland and pastures rated in very poor to poor condition, followed by California (55 percent), Wyoming (53 percent), New Mexico (47 percent), and Colorado (41 percent). However, drier-than-normal weather also favored Northwestern small grain maturation and harvesting. Tropical systems affecting the United States during July included Tropical Storm Fay and Hurricane Hanna. Fay produced heavy rain and gusty winds in the Atlantic Coast States and on July 10 became the first tropical cyclone to make landfall in New Jersey since Irene on August 27, 2011. About 2 weeks later, on July 25, Category 1 Hurricane Hanna moved inland across sparsely populated Kenedy County in southern Texas. Hanna resulted in local flooding and wind damage to crops such as citrus and cotton in the lower Rio Grande Valley. On July 29-30, newly formed Tropical Storm Isaias sparked locally heavy showers across Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, easing or eradicating drought. July Agricultural Summary July was warmer than average for most of the Nation. Parts of the Great Lakes, Mid-Atlantic, Northeast, Southwest, and Texas recorded temperatures 4°F or more above normal for the month. In contrast, pockets in the central Great Plains, the Pacific Northwest, and most of the northern Rockies were cooler than normal. Much of Florida, the Great Lakes, the Great Plains, the Gulf Coast, and the Mississippi Valley received higher than normal amounts of rain but the West was drier than normal. Parts of Florida, the Gulf Coast, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin received 10 inches or more of rain for the month. By July 5, ten percent of the Nation's corn acreage had reached the silking stage, three percentage points ahead of last year but 6 percentage points behind the 5-year average. By July 19, fifty-nine percent of the Nation's corn acreage had reached the silking stage, twenty-nine percentage points ahead of last year and 5 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. By July 19, nine percent of the corn acreage was at or beyond the dough stage, 5 percentage points ahead of last year and 2 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. By August 2, ninety-two percent of the Nation's corn acreage had reached the silking stage, 20 percentage points ahead of last year and 5 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. By August 2, thirty-nine percent of the corn acreage was at or beyond the dough stage, 19 percentage points ahead of last year and 6 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. As of August 2, seventy-two percent of the Nation's corn acreage was rated in good to excellent condition, 15 percentage points above the same time last year. In Iowa, 73 percent of the 2020 corn acreage was rated in good to excellent condition on August 2. By July 5, thirty-one percent of the Nation's soybean acreage had reached the blooming stage, 23 percentage points ahead of last year and 7 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Nationally, 2 percent of the Nation's soybean acreage had begun setting pods, 1 percentage point ahead of last year but 2 percentage points behind the 5-year average. By July 19, sixty-four percent of the Nation's soybean acreage had reached the blooming stage, 29 percentage points ahead of last year and 7 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Nationally, 25 percent of the Nation's soybean acreage had begun setting pods, 19 percentage points ahead of last year and 4 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. By August 2, eighty-five percent of the Nation's soybean acreage had reached the blooming stage, 17 percentage points ahead of last year and 3 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. Nationally, 59 percent of the Nation's soybean acreage had begun setting pods, 27 percentage points ahead of last year and 5 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. On August 2, seventy-three percent of the Nation's soybean acreage was rated in good to excellent condition, 19 percentage points above the same time last year. Fifty-six percent of the 2020 winter wheat acreage had been harvested by July 5, fourteen percentage points ahead of last year and 1 percentage point ahead of the 5-year average. In Kansas, 80 percent of the State's winter wheat acreage was harvested by July 5, twenty-eight percentage points ahead of last year and 4 percentage points ahead of the 5-year average. As of July 5, fifty-one percent of the 2020 winter wheat acreage was reported in good to excellent condition, 13 percentage points below the same time last year. Seventy-four percent of the 2020 winter wheat acreage had been harvested by July 19, eight percentage points ahead of last year but 1 percentage point behind the 5-year average. Winter wheat harvest progress continued with advances of 20 percentage points or better reported in Colorado, Michigan, Nebraska, and South Dakota. Eighty-five percent of the 2020 winter wheat acreage had been harvested by August 2, five percentage points ahead of last year but 3 percentage points behind the 5-year average. Winter wheat harvest progress continued with advances of 10 percentage points or more from the previous week reported in Michigan, Montana, Oregon, South Dakota, and Washington. Forty-seven percent of the Nation's cotton acreage had reached the squaring stage by July 5, three percentage points ahead of the previous year but 1 percentage point behind the 5-year average.

Growers expect good crop volume with improved quality and sizing. Statistical Methodology Survey procedures: Objective yield and farm operator surveys were conducted between July 25 and August 6 to gather information on expected yields as of August 1. The objective yield survey for winter wheat was conducted in 10 States that account for 74 percent of the 2019 winter wheat production. The objective yield survey for cotton was only conducted in the southern portions of Texas. Farm operators selected for the objective yield survey were interviewed to update previously reported acreage data and seek permission to randomly locate two sample plots in selected fields for the objective yield survey. The counts made within each sample plot depend on the crop and the maturity of that crop. In all cases, the number of plants is recorded along with other measurements that provide information to forecast the number heads or bolls and their weight. The counts are used with similar data from previous years to develop a projected biological yield. The average harvesting loss is subtracted to obtain a net yield. The plots are revisited each month until crop maturity when the fruit are harvested and weighed. After the farm operator has harvested the sample field, another plot is sampled to obtain current year harvesting loss. Starting in 2019, NASS eliminated the August objective yield survey for cotton (except Texas), corn, and soybeans. The first objective yield survey conducted for these crops will begin in September. The farm operator survey was conducted primarily by telephone with some use of mail and internet. Approximately 20,300 producers were interviewed during the survey period and asked questions about probable yield. These growers will continue to be surveyed throughout the growing season to provide indications of average yields. Estimating procedures: National and State level objective yield and grower reported data were reviewed for reasonableness and consistency with historical estimates. The survey data were also reviewed considering weather patterns and crop progress compared with previous months and previous years. Each Regional Field Office submits their analysis of the current situation to the Agricultural Statistics Board (ASB). The ASB uses the survey data and the State analyses to prepare the published August 1 forecasts. Revision policy: The August 1 production forecast will not be revised; instead, a new forecast will be made each month throughout the growing season. End-of-season estimates are made after harvest. At the end of the marketing season, a balance sheet is calculated using carryover stocks, production, exports, millings, feeding, and ending stocks. Revisions are then made if the balance sheet relationships or other administrative data warrant changes. Estimates of planted acres for spring planted crops are subject to revision in the August Crop Production report if conditions altered the planting intentions since the mid-year survey. Planted acres may also be revised for cotton, peanuts, and rice in the September Crop Production report each year; spring wheat, Durum wheat, barley, and oats only in the Small Grains Annual report at the end of September; and all other spring planted crops in the October Crop Production report. Revisions to planted acres will only be made when either special survey data, administrative data, such as Farm Service Agency program "sign up" data, or remote sensing data are available. Harvested acres may be revised any time a production forecast is made if there is strong evidence that the intended harvested area has changed since the last forecast. Reliability: To assist users in evaluating the reliability of the August 1 production forecast, the "Root Mean Square Error," a statistical measure based on past performance, is computed. The deviation between the August 1 production forecast and the final estimate is expressed as a percentage of the final estimate. The average of the squared percentage deviations for the latest 20-year period is computed. The square root of the average becomes statistically the "Root Mean Square Error." Probability statements can be made concerning expected differences in the current forecast relative to the final end-of-season estimate, assuming that factors affecting this year's forecast are not different from those influencing recent years. For example, the "Root Mean Square Error" for the August 1 corn for grain production forecast is 3.6 percent. This means that chances are 2 out of 3 that the current production forecast will not be above or below the final estimate by more than 3.6 percent. Chances are 9 out of 10 (90 percent confidence level) that the difference will not exceed 6.2 percent. Also, shown in the following table is a 20-year record for selected crops of the differences between the August 1 forecast and the final estimate. Using corn again as an example, changes between the August 1 forecast and the final estimate during the last 20 years have averaged 317 million bushels, ranging from 5 million bushels to 940 million bushels. The August 1 forecast has been below the final estimate 9 times and above 11 times. This does not imply that the August 1 corn forecast this year is likely to understate or overstate final production.
