Agriculture

A REA I NFORMATION

Panhandle agriculture is a diverse conglomerate of livestock and crops. Over 4,500 proprietors manage almost 12,000 square miles and generate over a billion dollars in annual gross sales. The Panhandle's land and water resources are key to the region's agricultural productivity. Elevation ranges from 5,400 ft in the southwest to 3,600 ft in the North Platte Valley. The area is classified as semi-arid with 12 to 17 inches of annual precipitation. Reservoirs on the North Platte River in Wyoming capture snow melt that is delivered to over 325,000 acres of ditch-irrigated land in the valley. An additional 325,000 acres are irrigated with ground water delivered through center pivots. The livestock industry accounts for two thirds of the gross agricultural sales in the Panhandle. Over 65% of Panhandle land is available for grazing and supports over 250,000 beef cows. Panhandle feedlots finish approximately 700,000 head annually. There are no major livestock processing facilities in the Panhandle. The primary irrigated crops for the Panhandle are corn and alfalfa. Corn generates annual gross sales in excess of $160 million. Alfalfa hay is marketed regionally with a large share going to the dairy industry in the Colorado front range. Additionally, a number of speciality crops are unique to the Panhandle of Nebraska. Sugarbeets, for example, are grown on 40-

50,000 acres of Panhandle cropland. The beet crop typically generates $70-80 million in gross revenue. The beet crop is processed by Western Sugar, a growerowned cooperative with factories in Scottsbluff and Torrington, WY. In addition to sugar extraction, the Scottsbluff facility includes an extensive packaging facility and a molasses desugarization plant. The gross value of sugar processing to the Panhandle exceeds $80 million per year and provides over 500 full and part-time jobs. Dry, edible beans are also unique crops to Western Nebraska. Acreages range from

AGRICULTURE 40,000 acres. Proso is well adapted to many soils and climatic conditions. It needs very little water and has a short growing season making it a perfect crop for this area. Proso is used for bird seed and export markets. It is sold as health food and due to its lack of gluten and it can be included in the diets of people who cannot tolerate wheat. Nebraska typically has one-third to onefourth of the nations’ proso millet acreage, according to the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS). The state’s growers usually harvest 100,000 to 150,000 acres annually, producing 1.2 million to almost 4.5 m i l l i o n bushels, with a value of $4 million to $21 million, according to NASS. Sunflowers are produced on about 50,000 acres and are used for confection, oil and bird seed. Much of our proso and sunflower production goes to PennPak III, a birdseed processing and packaging facility in Sidney, NE. Recent challenges in production agriculture have forced many farmers to consider other emerging crops. Wine grapes, garbanzo beans, turfgrass seed, white wheat and organic crops are a few examples of crops being grown in the Panhandle on a limited but expanding basis. Panhandle agriculture is an important, diverse and interesting segment of our economy. The combination of crop and livestock production with extensive processing facilities provides much of the economic and employment base for the region. Efforts to diversify our economy are important. Land and people, however, will continue to be our most precious resources.

Dry, edible bean production is valued at over $70 million annually. Our dry, edible beans are cleaned and packaged by four major bean processors in the Panhandle. Bean processing accounts for approximately $80 million in gross sales. Foreign markets are vital in marketing Nebraska's dry beans. Over one-half of the Great Northerns and up to one-third of the Pintos are exported. Corn is produced on about 350,000 acres. Most of this corn is fed to beef cattle, although two area ethanol facilities are demanding more of the crop. Nebraska’s climate, soil type, irrigation practices and innovative farming techniques help West Nebraska farmers produce a high quality, ample supply of corn. According to ProExporter Network, nearly 70% of Nebraska’s corn production will be used within the state. Fun fact: According to corn experts - the number of kernels per ear can vary from 500 to about 1,200 but a typical ear would have 600-900 kernels. Although Nebraska typically ranks between 10th and 20th in total potato production, the Panhandle potato production is relatively small compared to other specialty crops. Over two million Panhandle acres are devoted to dryland agriculture. Given the semi-arid climate, most dryland farmers practice a two or three year crop rotation, allowing for a fallow period to conserve moisture prior to wheat planting. The predominant dryland areas are in the southern Panhandle with some acreage in the central and northern regions. Hard, red winter wheat dominates the dryland cropping system with more than 800,000 acres in production. One third of Nebraska's wheat production occurs in the Panhandle and is valued at $60 million. Winter wheat adapts to varying conditions which gives it the ability to fit into a double-crop and relay-crop rotation systems. Proso Millet is produced on about

This valley is rich in history, natural beauty and thriving businesses. Centrally located within these fertile acres in Western Nebraska are Scottsbluff, Gering and Terrytown. These cities are separated by the North Platte River - Scottsbluff on the north side and the cities of Gering and Terrytown are on the south. Scotts Bluff County also includes the cities and communities of Henry, Lyman, Minatare, Morrill and Mitchell. Wildcat Hills has panoramic views sweeping the North Platte Valley with the North Platte River meandering along the north base, and Scotts Bluff National Monument stretching lazily in the midst of the lush, green valley dotted by attractive farmsteads. From other perspectives one can see Chimney Rock piercing the eastern sky or Laramie Peak looming 100 miles to the west. The character of this community is what makes this area prosperous and prepared for growth. It is a character shaped by a rich heritage in the building of the west. The basis of that heritage is an act of creation, since the area has been gifted with a beautiful natural landmark. When such a landmark exists, it serves as a focal point for human activities, dating back to pre-historic man and extending through today and tomorrow. This landmark is Scotts Bluff which is a natural promontory ris-

ing 4649' above sea level. The ghost of Hiram Scott lingers in the name of the Scotts Bluff National Monument, Scotts Bluff County and City of Scottsbluff. Scott's story has become legendary. According to early historians, Scott, a fur trapper, became ill, was deserted by his companions and died in 1828, somewhere within the shadow of the 800-foot promontory now bearing his name. Scotts Bluff National Monument was incorporated into the national park system in 1919. Between 1830 and the late 1860's, the North Platte River was the median for the two earliest east-west superhighways: The Oregon-California Trail on the south and the Mormon Trail on the North. The Oregon-California Trail penetrated the bluffs through what today is known as Mitchell Pass. After the hundreds of miles of flat prairie to the east, the vision of Scotts Bluff was a welcome sight to the early pioneers, recorded in diaries and sketches and early photographs. Still visible are deep ruts gouged by thousands of hooves of oxen and horses and wheels of Conestoga wagons carrying emigrants and their limited possessions westward, first to Oregon and later to California where gold was discovered in 1848. The coming of the railroads was the contributing factor in establishing the townsites of Scottsbluff and Gering. Gering was named

Starting in 1828 when frontier trapper, Hiram Scott, died at the base of the bluff which was later to receive his name, the City of Scottsbluff has carried the name of the local monument. Scottsbluff began in the early 1900’s as a pioneer town with sod and log houses. One of the grand buildings in Scottsbluff was the TriState Land Co. constructed in 1907. This company was instrumental in the development of Scottsbluff by bringing industry and people to the area. Just to the south of the North Platte River lies the City of Gering which was founded in 1887. Gering was named the County Seat of Scotts Bluff County in 1888.

Scottsbluff and Gering. The Village of Terrytown began in 1949 and gained City status in 2005. One of the Valley's earliest homes is a log home discovered in Gering in the summer of 2001. It has since been moved to the North Platte Valley

Nebraska like you’ve never seen it. Those towering monuments of sandstone mark the spot. Scotts Bluff National Monument and Chimney Rock let you know you’re on the original road west, just like they did for the pioneers on the Oregon, Mormon and California Trail. You can still see the ruts from their wagon wheels carved in the stone. Hike in history’s footsteps and follow your own destiny.
