August 21, 1995

To the People of Nevada:

Agriculture is one of Nevada's primary industries, contributing greatly to the economies of our rural communities and the character of our state as a whole. Nevada farmers and ranchers are among the most independent and rugged of individuals, working some of the roughest country to be found - Nevada's high desert. Several years of drought are apparently behind us, as the tremendous precipitation received during the winter and spring of '94 - '95 has replenished soil moisture and irrigation water supplies. The outlook for Nevada agriculture production is therefore much improved and our farmers and ranchers deserve some better years.

As consumers, Nevadans enjoy plentiful, low cost food thanks to the productivity and efficiency of United States farmers and ranchers. In these turbulent economic and political times, it is imperative that law makers not lose sight of the irreplaceable contributions of our farmers and ranchers to the well-being of all of us. The preparation of statistics on Nevada agriculture is supported by this office, as accurate, timely information is vital to good government decision making.

Sincerely,

I B/ ///cellf~ BOB MILLER Governor

To Friends of Agriculture:

Nevada farmers and ranchers have faced difficult times in recent years with drought,

tluctuating market prices, grazing issues, and untold challenges of farming and ranching

lending uncertainty to the industry. The preparation of agricultural statistics is supported

by the Nevada Division or Agriculture because they provide the means to monitor what is

happening in our industry. Agricultural statistics give us reference for decision making

and help us monitor the effects of past decisions and events. It is hoped that those in

farming or ranching and associated agribusinesses, may benefit from these efforts.

The Nevada Division of Agriculture continues to work toward the preservation of

existing agriculture and encouragement of new enterprises. As shown in these statistics,

we are succeeding in several areas. Working together we may see continued growth in

Nevada agriculture in the coming years.

What are the current trends in Nevada agriculture? Are there more or fewer livestock? Are farm incomes rising or falling? How much hay is grown in Nevada? These types of questions and myriad others are effectivelyaddressed in Nevada A~icultural Statistics 1994-95. Statistics on agriculture provide vital information for production, policy, and management decision making. Compilation of these statistics is provided through the cooperation of Nevada Division of Agriculture and University of Nevada-Reno College of Agriculture with National Agricultural Statistics Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Most of the data that go into the preparation of these agricultural statistics come directly from those who know Nevada agriculture best...Nevada farm and ranch operators. The reliabilityof these statisticsis dependent on the voluntary cooperation of farm and ranch operators, and the vast majority of Nevada's operators cooperate fully. Thank you, Nevada fanners and ranchers, for your cooperation in this worthwhile endeavor.

On behalf of the staffof Nevada AgriculturalStatisticsService, it is my pleasure to present the 28th edition of this bulletin. Questions regarding any of these statistics or requests for additional information will be welcomed by our office;we are here to serve agriculture.
