Sealer of Weights and Measures AGRICULTURAL COMMISSIONER SEALER OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES 852 Broadway El Centro, CA (760) Fax: (760) June 9, 2009 TO: A. G. Kawamura, Secretary Department of Food and Agriculture And The Honorable Board of Supervisors, County of Imperial Wally Leimgruber, Chairperson Victor M. Carrillo Jack Terrazas Michael W. Kelley Gary Wyatt In accordance with the provisions of Section 2279 of the California Food and Agricultural Code, I am pleased to submit the Annual Agricultural Crop and Livestock Report for the centennial year for Imperial County Agriculture. This report is a summary of acreage, yield, and gross value of agricultural production in Imperial County. It must be emphasized that the values presented in this report represent Gross receipt of producers and do not take into account the various costs of production, marketing or transportation. No attempt is made to reflect net income of the producer. Also included is a report on the activities for sustainable agriculture as specified in section 2272 of the aforementioned code. The total gross agricultural production value in increased to $1,684,522,000. Values in all the commodity groups either increased or remained relatively stable. Field Crops posted the largest gain at 56.31% largely as the result of a significant increase in wheat acreage and price. Wheat ranking jumped from 14th to 3rd. Seed & Nursery Crops improved by 54.42% and also benefited from increased acreage and prices. Pollination demands and improved honey prices boosted Apiary Products up by 20.17%. An overall increase in acreage, yield and price contributed to the 17.34% gain in Vegetable and Melon Crops. Fruit & Nut crops increased 16.12% due mostly to favorable prices. Livestock remained relatively stable. I wish to thank the many producers, agricultural business representatives, and public agencies that have cooperated in providing the information required for the compilation of this report. Sincerely, Stephen L. Birdsall Agricultural Commissioner
