This survey was intended to provide much needed data on vegetable acreage and yields by cultural practice, season, and irrigation method. The survey was designed to be a comprehensive instrument for gathering data on the various vegetable crops grown in Georgia. The collected data is used extensively by Cooperative Extension as well as by agencies and companies that support the vegetable industry in Georgia. Users of this report will find that a variety of sources for vegetable acreage, yield, and value are available. In addition to this Farm Gate Vegetable Report from the Center for Agribusiness and Economic Development, there is GA Agricultural Facts published by the Georgia Agricultural Statistics Service (GASS), and Census of Agriculture, produced by the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS). CE and GASS figures rarely mirror each other. Reasons for differences abound and are mostly related to data collection methods. CE estimates rely only on reports from Georgia CE County Agents. Estimated yields for the year are available to the agents if they are unaware of local growing conditions. CE estimates do not distinguish between planted and harvested acres, though agents are encouraged to report harvested acres. Table 1 -- CE agents reported a total of 161,959 acres of vegetables grown in Georgia during 2009, ranging from broccoli to zucchini with over 40 different vegetables reported. Approximately 92% of these are grown for the fresh market with 8% going to processing. From 2008 to 2009, CE agents reported an overall increase of 7% in vegetable acreage (+10,882 acres). The greatest increases in acreage were reported for Bell Peppers (+2,901 acres) and Watermelon (+2,386 acres), whereas crops with greatest acreage losses included Yellow Squash (-1,298 acres) and Sweet Corn (-1,093 acres). Tables 2 and 3 -- Vegetable acreage and value ranks show that Sweet Corn surpassed Watermelon to be first in vegetable acreage and Snap Beans were again in third place. Though Sweet Corn had more acreage, Watermelon, Bell Peppers and Onions ranked in the top three for value. Tables 4 through 8 -- Acreage and yields are defined by market, cultural practice and irrigation practice. Spring, bareground, irrigated vegetables constitute 44% of the total vegetable acres in Georgia. Tables 9 and 10 -- Greenhouse vegetables produced for sale and transplant constituted 2,298,176 sq. ft. There were 1,199 acres of organically grown vegetables reported. The 2009 Farm Gate Value Survey, from which this vegetable data is obtained, relies on CE agents’ reports and attempts to measure value of production at the farm gate for a wide range of commodities in Georgia, including row crops, vegetables, fruits, nuts, poultry, forestry, livestock, ornamental horticulture and other income.
