Precipitation was present throughout the region last week affecting harvests

OLYMPIA, Wash. — The USDA NASS Northwest Region crop progress and condition report for the week ending November 7, 2021.

Idaho Row Crop Harvest Continued on a Steady Pace
There were 4.1 days suitable for fieldwork, the same as reported the previous week. Much of Idaho continued to receive autumn moisture above seasonal norms. Temperatures remained above normal for early November. Idaho topsoil, subsoil moisture levels, and pasture and range conditions continued to improve. Several parts of northern Idaho received over two inches of rain. Good rains in October caused range grasses in southwest Idaho to green up and provided good late fall feed on rangeland pastures. Winter wheat continued to emerge at an above normal pace. The majority of the 2022 crop emerged in fair to good condition. The sugarbeet harvest neared completion. The corn grain harvest resumed in several areas of south central Idaho where wet weather had stalled the 2021 harvest.

Rain Continued in Oregon
There were 5.4 days suitable for fieldwork, down from 5.7 the previous week. In northwest Oregon, cooler night
temperatures slowed fescue and orchard grass growth, but annual ryegrass still grew. Little field work was possible for agronomic crops. Most small fruit and nursery operations were in winter prep mode. Some standing water was evident in poorly drained fields after heavy rain periods and fieldwork operations were stopped. Geese came onto the newly planted cover crops regularly. In north central Oregon, producers seeded their wheat and most finished up. Wheat started to come up. Some rain was received in the area. In northeast Oregon, more rain fell, and precipitation was near average. Winter canola grew well. In southwest Oregon, recent rains made fields too wet to work. Most of these fields had good topsoil moisture. In Malheur County, rain slowed down some harvest. Sugarbeet harvest was nearly finished, field corn harvest continued, and most winter wheat was planted. Recent rains facilitated growth of earlier planted wheat. Lake County received a significant amount of rain. In Klamath County, rain improved pasture conditions overall, but the pastures remained damaged and overgrazed. Fall crops were planted.

Cool Fall Weather Set in Throughout Washington
There were 5.6 days suitable for fieldwork, up from 4.5 the previous week. Statewide temperatures were normal to below normal. In San Juan County, cooler temperatures set in throughout the area. Wet conditions kept winter crops from being planted. Leaves changed colors and fell off fruit trees as harvest was done. In Chelan County, continued precipitation and cool weather helped soil moisture deficits. Winter wheat emerged in most areas throughout the county. In Yakima County, there was consistent rain throughout the area. Apple harvest continued with late varieties. Stone fruit trees showed pleasant leaf colors. Some field tillage was done throughout the area. In Whitman County, much needed rainfall was received. Most crops had emerged, and soil moisture levels increased due to high amounts of precipitation.
