Colorado Annual Bulletin, 2016 1 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

September 2016 Dear Friends, I am pleased to introduce the 2016 Colorado Annual Agricultural Statistics Bulletin.

As farmers and ranchers, the decisions we make affect our businesses, the food system, and our communities. It is vital that we base these decisions on solid and comprehensive data.

This book offers the opportunity to get a clear picture of Colorado agriculture and how it has evolved through the generations. It provides decision makers, from producers to legislators, the ability to make informed decisions.

I truly believe our farmers and ranchers are the cornerstone of our great state and country. Without them, we would not enjoy the abundant food we have available to us, one of the lowest food costs in the world, and national food security because of our ability to provide enough food to feed our people.

Our success is shaped by the valuable information found is this book. At the Department of Agriculture, we use this book to help make planting decisions, track our export markets, and create new marketing opportunities.

From our own back yard to the global marketplace, the Colorado Agricultural Statistics Bulletin is a vital resource.

I would like to thank NASS, the National Agricultural Statistics Service, and all of the farmers and ranchers whose cooperation makes this book possible.

Sincerely,

Don Brown Commissioner The Colorado Agricultural Statistics Bulletin is compiled by the National Agricultural Statistics Service, Mountain Region Field Office, which is an agency within the U.S. Department of Agriculture, in cooperation with the Colorado Department of Agriculture.

2 Colorado Annual Bulletin, 2016 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

September 2016 Dear Friends of Agriculture, Net farm income for Colorado agricultural producers totaled nearly $1.5 billion in 2015 and cash receipts totaled nearly $7.4 billion. What a reminder of the importance of agriculture in this great state and what a reminder of the importance and dedication of Colorado farmers and ranchers. With that, I am pleased to present the 2016 Colorado Agricultural Statistics Bulletin made available through the Mountain Regional Field Office of USDA's National Agricultural Statistics Service in cooperation with the Colorado Department of Agriculture. This bulletin is a showcase for the diversity and value of agriculture across the state. In addition, much of the information in this bulletin and available throughout the year is used for decision making in the agricultural sector – good decisions are made by having good information. Thank you to the farmers and ranchers for taking time out of their busy schedules to provide the data needed to produce these statistics. I also want to thank all the agribusinesses, extension educators and USDA's Farm Service Agency for contributing information for this bulletin and providing support for our programs. This report would not be possible without the dedicated effort of field and telephone interviewers who collect this data and the office staff that compiles it. I would like to thank Ryan Kanode for the cover photography, and a special thanks to the Colorado Department of Agriculture for covering the costs of printing this bulletin. Sincerely,

William Meyer Director USDA NASS Mountain Regional Field Office

National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) Reports and Data The NASS Internet homepage provides easy access to the wide range of reports, data and general information published throughout the year. All data in this bulletin is published at an earlier date and can be found most quickly via the Internet.

NASS Homepage – http://www.nass.usda.gov

Colorado Homepage – https://www.nass.usda.gov/Statistics_by_State/Colorado/index.php

Through a cooperative agreement with Cornell University, the Albert R. Mann Library distributes NASS, Economic Research Service (ERS), and World Agricultural Outlook Board (WAOB) periodicals and data files via the USDA Economics and Statistics System on a web server. Over 500 NASS reports annually are available free of charge. All NASS reports along with WAOB’s World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) are available electronically, seconds after release. A calendar of scheduled releases is available from the NASS Homepage by clicking on Publications. The next screen is the Reports Calendar where you can choose the year and month of interest.

When a current report is released, it can be sent free of charge via e-mail to the list of subscribers for that report. From the NASS homepage, select the Publications drop down, then follow the instructions under Receive Reports by Email. The four report options available in Colorado are:

Agricultural Statistics Data Base (Quick Stats)

Published U.S., State, and County information is also available in an online database FREE OF CHARGE. The database allows custom extracts based on commodity, year, State, and other selection criteria and produces an output file compatible for updating databases and spreadsheets for selected commodities. The database can be accessed from the NASS homepage by selecting Data and Statistics. From there you can retrieve National, State, or County level data. The Census of Agriculture is also available in Quick Stats. The database allows custom extracts based on commodity, year, selected counties within a State, or all counties in one or more States.
