Arkansas is experiencing a banner year for its major crops, with soybeans, corn, and rice on track for record or near-record yields, despite potential damage from hurricanes Francine and Helene.

Peanut producers face challenges from untimely rains and difficulty in getting trailers in the field, potentially leading to yield loss. The final production figures for grains, soybeans, and cotton will be released in January, while cotton damage from the hurricanes and peanut yield loss are factors to watch.

Soybeans are on pace for a record state average yield. Corn and rice will both have their second-best yield numbers ever, according to the Crop Production report from the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) released in November. “It’s the last month this calendar year that NASS will make any production adjustments,” said Scott Stiles, extension economics program associate for the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture. “Final 2024 production figures for grains and soybeans will be released in January with cotton coming in May.” There had been some speculation that yields for soybeans and cotton might decline slightly due to damage from the remnants from hurricanes Francine and Helene that impacted ...
