NASS begins preparing year-end county crop production estimates immediately after publishing the annual Crop Production Summary in January. State totals for some commodities are published in the monthly Crop Production report (April, May and June) and other reports. NASS expects data to be available in the Quick Stats database at 3 p.m. ET on the dates listed below. However, circumstances may sometimes prevent this. Therefore, final dates will be added to the “All States Available” column when all data are available.
