1 Source: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service. 2 Value of agricultural sector production is the gross value of the commodities and services produced within a year. Net value-added is the sector's
contribution to the National economy and is the sum of the income from production earned by all factors-of-production, regardless of ownership.
Net farm income is the farm operator's share of income from the sector's production activities. The concept presented is consistent with that
employed by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. 3 A positive value of inventory change represents current-year production not sold by December 31. A negative value is an offset to production from
prior years included in current-year sales.

Growing Season Weather Summary Dr. Jeff Andresen, Michigan State University
The 2014 growing season was preceded by a severe winter. It
was the coldest November through March period in over 100
years, causing the most extensive ice cover on the Great Lakes
since the winter of 1978/1979. Extreme minimum temperatures
ranged from -35°F or less in the western UP to just below 0°F at
a few locations along the lake shore in western Lower Michigan.
Snowfall was heavier than normal in most areas, ranging from
about 40 inches in some central and southern sections to more
than 250 inches in the Upper Peninsula’s lake effect snow belts.
The prolonged cold temperatures allowed the development of an
unusually deep snow pack across the state, which contained very
high levels of water equivalent. Given the deep snow cover, soil
temperatures remained at warmer than normal levels across the
state, and much of the water in the snow pack infiltrated the soil
following an extended thaw in late March. By the beginning of
April, all of the state was categorized by the Palmer Drought
Severity Index as ‘Unusually Moist' to 'Extremely Moist'.
The spring of 2014 was challenging for most agricultural
activities. Mean temperatures were below normal while
precipitation ranged from less than 2” across southern sections of
the state to more than 6” across central and northern sections of
the Lower Peninsula. The cool, wet weather slowed development
of overwintering perennial and annual crops and severely
hampered spring planting and other fieldwork. A period of warm,
dry conditions developed during the second half of May and
continued into early June, finally allowing spring planting and
associated fieldwork to progress at a rapid rate.
Conditions were wetter than normal, and there were several
rounds of severe weather in mid to late June. June rainfall ranged
from less than 2” across some eastern sections of the state to more
than 6” in the southwestern Lower Peninsula. Widespread heavy
rainfall late in the month reversed earlier drier than normal
conditions that had slowed vegetative crop growth in some
southwestern areas. Mean temperatures for the month were above
long term normals at most locations. This led to an acceleration
of crop growth and development. By the end of June, seasonal
growing degree day totals had increased to levels near to slightly
ahead of normal across most southern and central sections.
Seasonal totals across western and central sections of Upper
Michigan continued to lag from 7-10 days behind normal.
Mean temperatures for the July through mid-August period
generally remained from 2-5°F below the long term normals. As
of late August seasonal growing degree day accumulations were
well behind normal rates over most of the state. There was a
highly variable pattern of rainfall across the state during the mid-
summer period. Central sections of Upper Michigan and
northwestern South Central Lower Michigan were categorized as
‘Abnormally Dry’ by the U.S. Drought Monitor as of late August.
The first freezing temperatures of the fall were in western and
central sections of the Upper Peninsula on the 12th and 13th of
September and in interior sections of northern Lower Michigan
on the 13th and 14th. There was heavy precipitation during early
September. Monthly totals ranged from less than 3” across
southern sections of Lower Michigan to more than 6” across some
northwestern sections of the Lower Peninsula. Abnormally warm
and dry weather the last week of September advanced late-
maturing crops and accelerating grain dry down rates. Still, as of
the end of September, seasonal growing degree day
accumulations lagged well behind normal in most areas.
Cool, wet weather prevailed in early October. There was a
series of frost/freeze events on the 10th, 11th, and 12th of October,
and again on the 19th that ended the growing season for many
crops. While the first freezes were close to the climatic average
dates in many cases, they came before a portion of the corn crop,
which was delayed by late planting and an abnormally cool July,
had reached maturity. Low grain test weights and high moisture
content were a challenge for some growers. In early November as
a major winter storm brought strong winds and heavy snow.
Several rounds of lake effect snowfall through the third week of
the month slowed vegetative development of fall-planted crops
and brought harvest operations to a halt in most areas.

Agricultural Statistics Districts
The State is divided into nine Agricultural Statistics Districts to
make data comparison easier. An Agricultural Statistics District
is a contiguous group of counties having relatively similar
agricultural characteristics. Each district has within it more
