a Figures represent seeded area for all crops except for winter wheat and rye, where they represent area remaining for harvest as of June 1.

b Figures for 1998 and onwards represent two changes: Area for harvest is collected and reported for the first time and production is reported at a standard dry matter content of 90%. Therefore, 1998 yields are not comparable with the yields of prior years. Hay area estimates include forage seed.

Note: Estimates for the years 2002 to 2005 have been adjusted, where necessary, to align with the 2006 Census of Agriculture benchmark. Estimates for 2007 are based on the November Field Crop Production Survey.
