Explanation of Terms
(Unless otherwise noted)
ESTIMATES are expressions of judgment regarding what is true at
any given time based on incomplete data, past relationships, calculations,
appraisement, and general knowledge of the subject under consideration ;
they are published subject to revision. Tables of data marked "preliminary" are especially subject to further consideration and revision.
FARM PRODUCTION AND FARM NUMBERS for the state as a whole are
estimates published by the Bureau of Agricultural Economics, U. S.
Department of Agriculture, except as otherwise noted.
County numbers
are estimates obtained from county agricultural agents and other informed persons, and adjusted to state totals except as otherwise noted.
SEASONAL AVERAGE PRICES are the averages of prices received by.
farmers at usual marketing points for quantities sold during the crop
season.
CASH RECEIPTS FROM FARM MARKETINGS in this bulletin are intended
to represent the returns to farmers from products sold and are based on
the crop marketing season in all cases except Table 1 which is on a
calendar year basis.
Type-of-Farming Districts
Much of the data for the state has been broken down into the following districts :
District 1-14/illamette Valley counties: Benton, Clackamas, Lane,
Linn, Marion, Multnomah, Polk, Washington, and Yamhill.
District 2Coast and Lower Columbia counties: Clatsop, Columbia,
Coos, Curry, Lincoln, and Tillamook.
District 3Southern Oregon counties: Douglas, Jackson, and Josephine.
District 4Columbia Basin counties: Gilliam, Hood River, Morrow,
Umatilla, Sherman, Wasco, and Wheeler.
District 5Snake River Basin counties: Baker, Malheur, Union,
and Wallowa.
District 6South Central counties: Crook, Deschutes, Grant, Harney, Jefferson, Klamath, and Lake.
Oregon's Hay and Grain Crops*
1909-1947
grain crops grown in Oregon include such cash
PRINCIPAL
crops as wheat, oats, barley, rye, and corn. Hay, while not as
important a cash crop as grain, ranks first in farm value as a feed
for livestock. This group of crops accounts for more than threefifths of Oregon's total cropland.
Tables 1 to 4 contain data on cash receipts from farm marketings, price, acreage, and production of grain and hay in Oregon on
a statewide basis. For state data prior to 1909 and county data from
1939 to 1943, see Extension Bulletin 654, "Oregon's Grain and Hay
Crops, 1869-1944," published in April 1945.
Cash Receipts
Grain and hay crops rank first among Oregon's cash crops in
cash receipts from farm marketings. During the 1940-1944 period,
receipts from this group amounted to $29,153,400 (see Table 1).
That was nearly two-thirds greater than during the prewar period
1935-1939. The increase was accounted for both by increased production and higher prices. A substantial increase in prices since
the 1940-1944 period has accounted for further increases in cash
receipts. Receipts from this group of crops reached a peak in 1944
at $42,479,000. Production then declined, resulting in smaller receipts in 1945. In 1946, both production and prices again increased.
Cash receipts in 1946, at S50,927,000, were 20 per cent greater than
the previous record year of 1944. They were 75 per cent above the
1940-1944 average and nearly 3 times the 1935-1939 prewar average.
Preliminary estimates place receipts in 1947 at $64,792,000.
Wheat is the most important cash crop of this group (based on
cash receipts from farm marketings). Hay ranks second, followed
by barley, oats, rye, and corn, in the order named.
Prices
Prices of grain and hay crops in Oregon from 1909 to 1947
are shown in Table 2.
The peak price during this period was
reached in 1947. The second highest price for most of the grain and
* State data in this bulletin are based on various reports from the Bureau of Agri-
cultural Economics, U. S. Department of Agriculture, except as otherwise noted. County
data were prepared from information obtained from county agricultural agents, growers,
dealers, warehousemen, feed manufacturers, and other informed persons to whom we are
indebted for cooperation in developing the estimates. The sum of the county estimates is
in agreement with the state total unless otherwise noted.
This bulletin was prepared for publication by B. W. Coyle, Assistant Extension Statistician, and Mrs. Elvera Horrell, Junior Extension Statistician, under the direction of
L. R. Breithaupt, Extension Agricultural Economist and agricultural statistics project leader
for the extension service at Oregon State College.

hay crops was reached from 1917 to 1919, just following World
War I. The low point was touched during the depression years of
1931 and 1932.
Growers in Oregon received an average of $2.19 a bushel (preliminary) for wheat in 1947. That was 208 per cent of the 19371946 average. The second highest price ($2.05 a bushel) was received for the crops of 1918 and 1919. The low point was in 1931
when growers received an average of 380 a bushel. That was only
36 per cent of the 1937-1946 level. Oats, barley, corn, rye, and hay
also reached a peak in 1947. Oats averaged $1.11 a bushel, 196 per
cent of the 1937-1946 average. Barley at $1.68 a bushel was 214 per
cent of the 1937-1946 average ; corn at $2.55 a bushel was 243 per
cent of 1937-1946; and rye at $2.03 a bushel was 231 per cent of
1937-1946. All loose hay at $19.60 a ton in 1947 was 154 per cent
of the 1937-1946 average. The low point was reached for wheat and
oats in 1931, and for barley, corn, rye, and hay, in 1932. For a
complete record of seasonal average prices of grain and hay crops in
Oregon from 1909 to 1947, see Table 2.
Acreage and Production
The principal grain items and hay listed in Tables 3 and 4
occupied approximately 2,717,000 acres or more than 60 per cent of
Oregon's cropland in 1947. Acreage in 1947 was 6 per cent greater
than either the 1935-1939 or the 1940-1944 periods:
Wheat, oats, barley, and rye have increased in acreage since the
1935-1939 period, but decreases were recorded for corn and hay.
Production has followed the trend of acreage in all items except
hay. Hay production in 1947 was greater than prewar, in spite of
a decreased acreage.
Oregon's Grain Crops
Tables 5, 6, and 7 are a summarization of statistical data contained in Tables,8 to 22 covering the five principal grain crops :
wheat for grain, oats alone or with other crops for grain, barley for
grain, rye for grain, and field corn for grain.
It will be seen from the following tables that the Columbia
Basin counties, District 4, lead other districts of the state in both
area harvested and cash receipts from farm marketings. In 1946
this district accounted for nearly one-half of all grain crops harvested in the state, and over one-half of the cash receipts from farm
marketings.
The leading county is Umatilla. Other counties with over
100,000 acres of harvested grain crops are Morrow, Sherman, and

EXTENSION BULLETIN 692
Gilliam. Every county in the state reported some harvested acreage
for the principal grain crops in the period shown.
The importance of the grain crops in Oregon can be fully realized by ref erring to the following tables which show the total cash
receipts from farm marketings for all three marketing seasons of
1944, 1945, and 1946 to be in excess of 124 million dollars.
For acreage and production estimates of individual grain crops
by counties, 1919 and 1929, see Tables 24 to 28.
All Wheat
Wheat is the leading cash crop of all grain crops grown in the
state according to the cash receipts from farm marketings. In 1946
this amounted to nearly 39 million dollars.
As can be seen from Tables 8, 9, and 10, Umatilla County leads
all other counties in the state in acreage, production, and cash receipts. In 1946 this county harvested approximately 25 per cent of
the wheat, produced about 29 per cent of the total production, and
accounted for 32 per cent of the cash receipts from farm marketings.
Other important wheat counties in the state include Morrow,
Sherman, Gilliam, and Wasco.
There was a steady increase in both harvested acreage and the
seasonal average farm price in the three-year. period shown in the
The greatest increase occurred between 1945 and 1946.
Because of a lower yield in 1945 there was a 10 per cent drop in
tables.
production from 1944 to 1945 but not much change in cash receipts
because of the higher seasonal average farm price.
Oats for Grain
The data shown in Tables 11, 12, and 13 are a tabulation of all
oats grown for grain including oats grown alone or with other grains
and oats grown with peas or vetch.
The Willamette Valley counties, District 1, are the principal
oat producing counties in the state. Of the total production of
10,614,000 bushels of oats in 1946, District 1 accounted for 8,242,000
bushels or about 78 per cent.
Marion County leads in harvested acreage with about 14 per
cent of the state total.
Barley for Grain
Barley acreage increased in all districts of the state in the threeyear period 1944-1946. The greatest increase occurred in the Wil-
lamette Valley counties, District 1, although Klamath County in
OREGON'S HAY AND GRAIN CROPS
District 6 is the leading county in the state in barley production.
Over a million bushels of barley were produced in this county in
1944 and in 1946.
Rye for Grain
Although the acreage of rye has shown a slight increase in
recent years it is still a comparatively minor grain crop in Oregon.
In 1946 approximately 74 per cent of the rye was harvested in the
South Central counties, District 6, with Klamath County leading all
other counties with about 47 per cent of the total rye harvested in
the state. This county also accounted for about 57 per cent of the
total production and roughly 69 per cent of the cash receipts from
farm marketings.
Corn for Grain
The average seasonal price per bushel for field corn has increased considerably in the three-year period 1944-1946; however,
because of the decrease in harvested acreage and less corn being
sold, the total cash receipts from farm marketings showed a decline.
In 1944 approximately 8 per cent of the total pro,duction was
sold while in 1946 only about 4 per cent was sold. In view of the
fact that the total production for this period was fairly constant it
appears that more corn is being kept on the farms for livestock feed.
Marion County harvested about 25 per cent of all field corn in
the state in 1946.

EXTENSION BULLETIN 692
Oregon's Hay Crops
All Hay
The following Tables 29, 30, and 31 are a summarization of data
contained in Tables 32 to 46 covering the five principal hay crops :
alfalfa, grains, vetch or pea, clover, and grass.
The South Central counties, District 6, are shown to have harvested the most hay mainly because of the large acreage of grass hay
in this section. In cash receipts, however, the Willamette Valley,
District 1, exceeds other districts of the state.
On the basis of information shown in Table 31, Harney County
led all other counties in acreage harvested, but Malheur County led
in cash receipts from farm marketings.
Total cash receipts for all hay increased to some extent in the
three year period shown in the tables even though there was a 6 per
cent decrease in harvested acreage between 1945 and 1946.
For acreage and production estimates of hay crops by counties,
1919 and 1929, see Tables 48 to 52.
Alfalfa Hay
Alfalfa hay is the leading cash crop of all hays grown in the
state according to the cash receipts from farm marketings. In the
years 1944, 1945, and 1946 this amounted to over 5 million dollars
for each marketing season. The harvested acreage, however, has
shown a slight decrease for the last few years. The 1946 acreage
was estimated as 95 per cent of the 1944 acreage.
Malheur County leads in alfalfa hay production in the state.
In 1946 this county produced about 30 per cent of the alfalfa hay
and accounted for about 21 per cent of the cash receipts from farm
marketings.
Other important alfalfa hay counties are Baker, Union, and
Umatilla.
Grain Hay
The majority of grain cut green for hay is harvested in the
South Central counties, District 6, with the Columbia Basin counties,
District 4, in second place. Each county in the state harvested some
grain hay in the period shown.
The leading county in acreage harvested for 1946 was Klamath
followed by Grant, Umatilla, Jefferson, Crook, and Lake...
The seasonal average farm price for grain hay has remained
fairly constant in the three year period 1944-1946; however, because
OREGON'S HAY AND GRAIN CROPS
35
of the decrease in both harvested acreage and production and a
smaller percentage of grain hay sold the cash receipts have dropped
considerably.
Vetch or Pea Hay
Vetch or pea hay is mainly a Willamette Valley crop. In 1946
this district harvested about 75 per cent of the vetch hay acreage,
accounted for 78 per cent of the total production and cash receipts
from farm marketings amounted to 85 per cent of the state total.
Douglas County in District 3 is the only county outside the
Willamete Valley which harvested any great amount of vetch hay.
Some vetch or pea hay was harvested in each of the six districts
but only in Districts 1, 2, and 3 was any sold".
Clover Hay
Clover hay, like vetch or pea hay, is predominantly a Willamette
Valley crop. Table 43 shows that in 1946 this district accounted for
about 64 per cent of the harvested acreage, 70 per cent of the total
production, and 72 per cent of the cash receipts from farm marketings. Marion County leads the state in harvested clover hay acreage
followed by Washington and Clackamas.
There was about a 6 per cent drop in harvested acreage from
1944 to 1945 with 1946 showing a 1 per cent inci-ease over 1945.
Grass Hay
Grass hay is mainly an eastern Oregon crop with the largest
harvested acreage occurring in District 6. Table 46 shows that in
1946 this district harvested approximately 55 per cent of the state
total. Most of the grass hay is in Harney County which accounted
for about 23 per cent of the harvested acreage in 1946.
In proportion to the large acreage of grass hay harvested the
cash receipts from farm marketings are low due to the fact that only
about 7 per cent of the total production is sold. In eastern Oregon
where the largest production occurs most of the grass hay is fed to
livestock on the ranch.

For Further Information
The reader will find on page 63 a list of statistical bulletins on
twelve groups of farm products produced in Oregon. As rapidly as
possible to complete the data, statistical bulletins for each group
giving acreage and production data are issued by the Oregon State
College Extension Service. In some instances, where the need is
urgent for specific commodity data, mimeographed Extension statisti-
cal circulars are issued that are of value until the more complete
printed bulletins can be issued.
Other statistical bulletins are published from time to time, particularly for the purpose of presenting data that embrace the whole
of Oregon's agricultural commodities or that pertain to farm marketing, prices, income, etc. The Oregon statistical bulletins and circulars are available from county extension agents or the College.
Oregon agricultural outlook circulars
To provide Oregon farmers with economic and statistical information on the agricultural outlook that will assist them in planning
their farm production and marketing operations, the Oregon State
College Extension Service issues timely agricultural outlook circulars.
These are based on data and information of national and
world-wide scope as well as data for Oregon. Liberal use is made of
information from many sources. The following outlook circulars are
available from county extension agents or from the College each year
at the season indicated.
Perennial cropstree fruits, small fruits, nuts, specialty crops,
etc.January.
Spring-sown annual cropsgrain, hay, seeds, potatoes, vegetables,
etc.February.
Fall-sown cropswheat, hay crops, seed crops, etc.August.
Animal productsdairy, poultry, beef, sheep, hogs, etc,September.
General agricultural outlookmarket demand prospects, farm
prices and income, farm and living costs, land values, etc.
November.
Spot market news and reviews
The Oregon State College Extension Service cooperates with the
Agricultural Marketing Service of the United States Department of
Agriculture and Radio Station KOAC (550 kc) in providing radio
broadcasts and spot market news and weekly farm market reviews.
This information, which is based largely upon the current day's gov-
61
OREGON'S HAY AND GRAIN CROPS
ernment market news leased wire messages, is broadcast during a 15minute period at 12 :30 noon, and another 15-minute period at 7:15 in
the evening.
The spot market material deals largely with prices and market
conditions prevailing in the principal markets for the day, but the
market reviews contain much valuable information on general trends
and conditions. County agents are supplied with copies of the weekly
market reviews as issued each day.
The weekly market review schedule at present is as follows :
MondayOregon specialty farm products; and general farm price,
cost, and crop review. 7:15 p.m.
