Iowa is divided into agricultural statistics districts for convenience in compiling and presenting statistical information on crops and livestock. These nine districts are outlined on the above map. The districts are designated as follows: Northwest (NW), West Central (WC), Southwest (SW), North Central (NC), Central (C), South Central (SC), Northeast (NE), East Central (EC), and Southeast (SE). In this bulletin, tables with statistical information by county have the counties grouped alphabetically within each district. Totals and averages are shown for each district. Following is an alphabetical list of counties showing the crop reporting district in which each county is located: Adair ---------------------- SW Davis----------------------- SE Jefferson ------------------- SE Pocahontas -------------- NW Adams --------------------- SW Decatur -------------------- SC Johnson -------------------- EC Polk -------------------------- C Allamakee ---------------- NE Delaware ------------------ NE Jones ----------------------- EC Pottawattamie ------------ SW Appanoose----------------- SC Des Moines --------------- SE Keokuk -------------------- SE Poweshiek ------------------ C Audubon ----------------- WC Dickinson ---------------- NW Kossuth ------------------- NC Ringgold ------------------- SC Benton -------------------- EC Dubuque ------------------ NE Lee ------------------------- SE Sac ------------------------ WC Black Hawk -------------- NE Emmet -------------------- NW Linn ------------------------ EC Scott ------------------------EC Boone ----------------------- C Fayette --------------------- NE Louisa ---------------------- SE Shelby -------------------- WC Bremer -------------------- NE Floyd ---------------------- NC Lucas ----------------------- SC Sioux --------------------- NW Buchanan ----------------- NE Franklin ------------------- NC Lyon ---------------------- NW Story ------------------------- C Buena Vista ------------- NW Fremont ------------------ SW Madison ------------------- SC Tama ------------------------ C Butler ---------------------- NC Greene -------------------- WC Mahaska ------------------- SE Taylor --------------------- SW Calhoun ------------------ WC Grundy ---------------------- C Marion --------------------- SC Union ----------------------- SC Carroll -------------------- WC Guthrie ------------------- WC Marshall --------------------- C Van Buren ----------------- SE Cass ------------------------ SW Hamilton -------------------- C Mills ---------------------- SW Wapello -------------------- SE Cedar ---------------------- EC Hancock ------------------- NC Mitchell------------------- NC Warren --------------------- SC Cerro Gordo -------------- NC Hardin ----------------------- C Monona ------------------- WC Washington --------------- SE Cherokee ----------------- NW Harrison ------------------ WC Monroe -------------------- SC Wayne---------------------- SC Chickasaw ---------------- NE Henry ---------------------- SE Montgomery ------------- SW Webster --------------------- C Clarke ---------------------- SC Howard -------------------- NE Muscatine ----------------- EC Winnebago --------------- NC Clay ----------------------- NW Humboldt ----------------- NC O'Brien ------------------- NW Winneshiek--------------- NE Clayton -------------------- NE Ida ------------------------- WC Osceola ------------------- NW Woodbury --------------- WC Clinton -------------------- EC Iowa------------------------ EC Page ----------------------- SW Worth --------------------- NC Crawford ----------------- WC Jackson -------------------- EC Palo Alto ----------------- NW Wright--------------------- NC Dallas------------------------ C Jasper ------------------------ C Plymouth ----------------- NW

Message from the Director National Agricultural Statistics Service

Iowa Field Office The USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service, Iowa Field Office is pleased to collaborate with the Iowa Farm Bureau to provide you the latest edition of the Iowa Agricultural Statistics*. This statistical profile of Iowa’s agriculture not only includes state level information but also includes information for every Iowa county. Enclosed you will find many interesting statistics about Iowa’s vibrant and dynamic agricultural industry. I would like to highlight the fact that in the 2010 ranking of states, Iowa ranked number one in:

Corn Production Soybean Production Hogs & Pigs inventory & value Commercial hog slaughter Pig Crop Egg production Capacity of on-farm grain storage Capacity of commercial grain

facilities Harvested acreage of principal crops Value of Field and Miscellaneous

crops Value of exports for feed grains,

soybeans, and their related products Value of exports for live animals and

meat

Iowa is ranked number two in:

Sows that farrowed Red meat production Cash Receipts from Marketings Net Farm Income Principal crops total value Cash Rent for cropland

Publication and dissemination of these and other agricultural statistics is only possible with the support of the entire agricultural industry. I want to thank the Iowa farmers who completed their questionnaires on inventories and production, the buyers and processors who graciously provided data on their inventories and purchases, as well as all those who supplied analyses that made the Iowa Agricultural Statistics possible. It is only with your assistance that NASS is able to complete its mission of providing timely, accurate, and useful statistics in service to U.S. agriculture. Thank you for your support and interest in Iowa agriculture. The Iowa Field Office staff is dedicated to meeting the agricultural data needs of all users. Please contact us anytime with your questions, comments, and requests for information.

Greg A. Thessen, Director

Much of the data used to calculate statistics published by the National Agricultural Statistics Service is collected by a part-time staff of telephone and field enumerators. This enumerator staff is employed by the National Association of State Departments of Agriculture (NASDA) and serves as outside contract workers for the USDA. The Iowa Field Office thanks the Iowa enumerators for their contribution and dedication in providing Iowa with the highest quality agricultural information possible.

USDA NATIONAL AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS SERVICE DEFINITION OF A FARM The definition of a farm is "any place from which $1,000 or more of agricultural products were produced and sold, or normally would have been sold, during the year". This definition has remained the same since 1974. Government payments are included in sales. Ranches, institutional farms, experimental and research farms, and Indian Reservations are included as farms. Places with the entire acreage enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP), or other government programs are counted as farms. Activities included as agriculture, however, have undergone modification in recent years. Beginning in 1995, operations having 5 or more horses or ponies and no other agricultural sales were counted as farms. Two industries, maple syrup and short rotation woody crop farms, were added as a result of the new North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). These changes were made to achieve comparability with the Census of Agriculture farm definition. To further align the counting of farms with the Census of Agriculture, places with 100 acres or more of pasture only were included in farm and land in farm numbers starting in 2002. The 2007 Census of Agriculture showed a significant increase in the number of farms, and reversed the downward trend that was shown in the annual estimates of Farm Numbers since the 2002 Census of Agriculture. NASS believes some of the increase is due to methodological changes allowing NASS to more accurately count small farms in the 2007 Census. The 2007-2009 farm number estimates reflect adjustments in the number of farms based on estimates produced by the 2007 Census of Agriculture.

2010 Iowa Crop Summary The 2010 crop season began with heavy rainfall followed by warm, breezy conditions. The weather permitted 17.5 total days suitable for fieldwork during April. By the end of the month, 79 percent of corn had been planted, 25 days ahead of 2009. Oats were 97 percent planted and 73 percent emerged, both well ahead of the 5-year average. May began with heavy rains, cold temperatures, and wide-spread frost that caused soil erosion and delayed farmers. The month ended with warm, dry temperatures that helped advance crop progress. The corn crop was 95 percent emerged by the end of May, while oats were completely emerged. Soybeans were 92 percent planted and 65 percent emerged. Alfalfa first cutting was 48 percent complete; 35 points ahead of 2009. Excessive rainfall and strong winds throughout June created the wettest June on record and permitted only 9.3 days suitable for fieldwork throughout the month. By the end of the month, topsoil moisture rated 60 percent surplus with subsoil moisture rated 59 percent surplus. Corn had just began to tassel, 92 percent of oats had headed, and soybeans were 96 emerged. Completion of first cutting of alfalfa, at 84 percent, was ahead of last year’s 81 percent but behind still 8 points behind the 5-year average. High humidity and temperatures during early July allowed ponded areas to dry. Inconsistent growth had been caused by excess moisture and possible nitrogen deficiency as crops matured ahead of schedule. The second half of July brought more heavy rainfall and storms accompanied by hot, humid days. July ended with 59 percent of the topsoil moisture rated adequate. Corn reached dough stage in 11 percent of the crop, ahead of last year but equal to the 5-year average. Soybeans setting pods were 60 percent, 1 day ahead of the 5-year average. Second cutting of alfalfa was 80 percent complete, 3 points ahead of last year but 5 points behind the 5-year average. Oat harvest had reached 79 percent, which was 12 days ahead of the 5-year average. Corn condition rated 70 percent good to excellent, while soybeans rated 71 percent good to excellent. August began with extreme heat advisories followed by heavy rainfall. Excessive rainfall caused several flooding issues in Central Iowa while Southwest Iowa became dry. By the end of the month, much of the state received the longest span without rain all growing season. Corn and soybeans progressed quickly during the last week of August. Corn began to turn color in many areas with instances of ears not filling out. Reports of sudden death syndrome were reported throughout the month as soybeans matured. The presence of white mold and

aphids was also reported. By the end of August, 95 percent of the corn had entered dough stage, 81 percent of the crop had started to dent, and 15 percent had reached maturity, all ahead of last year and the 5-year average. Pods had set on virtually all soybean acres and 23 percent had turned color, 15 points ahead of last year and 3 points ahead of the 5-year average. Oat harvest was complete by the third week of August. The third cutting of alfalfa hay was 73 percent complete, well ahead of last year and the five year average. Scattered showers throughout September saturated the state but windy days helped dry crops between rainfalls. The last week of the month brought high winds, heavy rains, and hail that created flash flood concerns and road damage. Temperatures fluctuated between the high eighties during the day to high forties and low fifties overnight. By the end of September, 95 percent of corn acres had reached maturity with 14 percent harvested. Soybeans had turned color in 97 percent of the crop. Leaves began to crop on 83 percent of the soybean acres, 1 point ahead of last year but 4 points behind the 5-year average. Soybean acres harvested increased to 25 percent complete. Alfalfa third cutting was virtually complete. Sunshine and warm temperatures dried the state during October and created ideal harvesting conditions. Rain showers throughout most of the state helped alleviate dusty and overly dry conditions the third weekend of the month. The month ended with high winds, scattered rain showers, and a few snow flurries. Overnight lows dropping into the twenties led to frost in many areas. By the end of October, corn was 94 percent harvested, the most complete corn harvest has been on October 31 since 2000 when 97 percent of the corn acres had been harvested. Nearly all soybean acres had been harvested. November began with cool temperatures. Operators began to finish fall tillage and moved to dry fertilizer and anhydrous application. Poor sealing of gases was reported as a result of extremely dry soil. The second week of the month brought Northwest Iowa their first measureable snowfall with some areas receiving up to a foot of wet snow. Freezing overnight temperatures began to firm soils and slow fall tillage. With the extended season of fall work, supplies of drainage tile and anhydrous became short. On- and off-farm grain storage availability remained adequate throughout the month. Corn harvest was nearly complete by the first week of November with the exception of a few scattered cornfields in Southwest and South Central Iowa. Soybean harvest was complete within the second week of November.

USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

Biotechnology Varieties, Iowa and U.S. USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service conducts the June Agricultural Survey each year. Randomly selected farmers across Iowa are asked if they planted corn or soybean seeds that, through biotechnology, are resistant to herbicides, insects, or both. Conventionally bred herbicide resistant varieties were excluded. Insect resistant varieties include only those containing bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). Stacked gene varieties include those containing biotech traits for both herbicide and insect resistance.
