1981 Oregon County and State Agricultural Estimates Special Report 651 January 1982 Oregon State University Extension Service Prepared by Stanley D. Miles Extension Economist, Oregon State University The following pages contain estimates of agricultural production and value of farm and ranch sales for 1981. These are preliminary or first estimates and will be revised and updated as additional information is received. The estimates are made by Oregon State University Extension Service personnel. County Extension agents develop estimates of acreages, yields, prices, numbers of cattle, sheep, hogs, and poultry. After all the county reports are completed, state totals are tabulated by Oregon State University Extension economists. This summary report provides a quick overview of Oregon agriculture for this past year. Oregon agricultural production information is requested by individuals, companies and agencies such as farmers and farm organizations, legislators, state and federal agencies, fertilizer and chemical companies, machinery companies, university specialists and administrators, students, consulting companies, news media, and other agribusiness firms. The Extension Service maintains detailed information on Oregon and United States agriculture and publishes other reports. Each year we publish more than 50 Commodity Data Sheets on the major agricultural commodities produced in Oregon. These contain a county breakdown of production, data on other northwest states or states that are important in the particular commodity and total figures for the United States. These sheets contain data for the last 3 to 5 years. Commodity data sheets are published in the following groupings: grains, hay and forage, grass and legume seeds, field crops, tree fruits and nuts, small fruits and berries, vegetable and truck crops, specialty products, and livestock and poultry. If you would like these reports or would like your name on a mailing list, please write to 219 Extension Hall, Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon 97331.
