If realized, this will be the highest yield and second highest production on record for the United s. Area harvested for grain is forecast at 8.8 million acres, down slightly from the previous estimate and down percent from 207. Acreage updates were made in several s based on a thorough review of all available data. Soybean production is forecast at a record 4.69 billion bushels, down slightly from September but up 6 percent from last year. Based on October conditions, yields are expected to average a record 53. bushels per acre, up 0.3 bushel from last month and up 3.8 bushels from last year. Area for harvest in the United s is forecast at 88.3 million acres, down percent from September and down percent from 207. Acreage updates were made in several s based on a thorough review of all available data. All cotton production is forecast at 9.8 million 480-pound bales, up less than percent from September but down 6 percent from last year. Yield is expected to average 90 pounds per harvested acre, up 6 pounds from last month but down 4 pounds from last year. Harvested area for all cotton is expected to total 0.5 million acres, down less than percent from September and down 5 percent from 207. Upland cotton production is forecast at 9.0 million 480-pound bales, down 6 percent from 207. Upland harvested area is expected to total 0.3 million acres, down 5 percent from last year.
