Abstract: Crop production in 1984, particularly for spring-planted crops, returned to near normal levels from the much reduced output of 1983 when Government programs curbed planted acreage and drought depressed yields. The top five States in net farm income were California, at $3.5 billion; Iowa, $2.2 billion; Texas, $2.2 billion; Florida, $1.8 billion; and Illinois, $1.7 billion. Top earners among commodities were cattle and calves and dairy products. Texas led cattle-and-calf production with $4.5 billion, and Wisconsin led dairy earnings with $3 billion. Iowa led in receipts of the next three highest earning commodities, soybeans, $2 billion; corn, $2.1 billion; and hogs, $2.6 billion.
