Some Notes About These Data
It is a large and challenging task to compile information detailed in this publication. This project would not have been
possible without the assistance and support of many people and organizations. We would like to thank all of the fruit
organizations in the state that supported the survey work and helped to publicize the importance of the work. Thanks go
to Dan Kelly at the Washington Growers Clearinghouse, Lindsay Buckner of Tree Top Inc., and Todd Fryhover of the
Washington Apple Commission for their support, assistance and feedback. We would like to thank Vicky Scharlau and
Susan Pheasant for feedback, assistance, and their efforts to promote this project. Special thanks go to Perry Beale for
his assistance and cooperation to use the Washington State Department of Agriculture’s geographic information system
(GIS) layer to facilitate the area survey portion of this project.
Most importantly we would like to thank the tree fruit and grape growers who took the time from their busy schedules to
provide the data compiled in this publication. This project would not have been possible without their cooperation.
The 2011 Grape and Tree Fruit Acreage Inventory by Variety Study was designed to measure the details about the
Washington Grape and Tree Fruit industries. This is the sixth time a survey of this type has been conducted in
Washington. Previous surveys were conducted in 1948-49, 1986, 1993, 2001, and 2006. Comparisons to previous data
are shown in the publication. Data may not be comparable due to changes in survey methodology. Statistics regarding
grapes will be released in a separate publication. The following are some notes regarding the tree fruit data.
The survey was supported by all of the major fruit organizations and publicized in many newsletters and industry
publications. Orchardists were sent pre-survey letters, endorsed by the coalition of Northwest tree fruit organizations,
explaining the intent and need to report. An example of the pre-survey letter is included in the appendix of this report.
In addition to the existing list of orchard operations, several lists of fruit producers were obtained and matched to the
existing list to maximize the coverage of the list portion of the survey. Lists from commissions, associations, county
assessors, marketing orders, and others were reviewed for this effort. The list portion of the survey included all those
operation thought to have five or more acres of tree fruit or one or more acres of grapes. The list sample included over
5,200 operations. The modes of data collection included mail, telephone, personal interview, and online Electronic Data
Reporting. Operations were given an opportunity to respond by mail beginning in December 2010. A copy of the
questionnaire and respondent booklet are included in this report. The beginning date of data collection was December 1,
2010. The median date of data collection was February 15. Follow-up mailings were conducted and all medium and most
smaller operations were contacted by telephone. Large operations, defined as those thought to have greater than 500
acres of fruit or those with significant amounts of less prevalent fruit, were followed up with face-to-face interviews. When
possible, efforts were made to use grower electronic records. Over 23,000 individual blocks of fruit information from
approximately 2,200 growers who reported one or more blocks of tree fruit or grapes were tabulated. Most of the
nonrespondents were smaller-sized operations as less effort was made to follow-up with growers expected to report very
small fruit acreages.
To evaluate the completeness of the list portion of the survey an area study was conducted. One hundred square miles,
or sections, of land containing tree fruit or grapes were statistically sampled and screened for tree fruit or grape
producers. Orchard or vineyards operators in the chosen sections were recorded and compared to the names in the list
portion of the sample. Those area records not present on the list represent the incompleteness of the list portion of the
survey. The list portion of the survey covered just over 95 percent of the total acreage. Much of the acreage missed by
the list portion of the survey had recently changed ownership or management. Most of the operations not present on the
list were very small operations.
There were several measures employed to assure data quality. Telephone data collection was conducted using a
computerized survey instrument. The survey instrument included prompts to the interviewer when unusual situations
were encountered. An example would be an extremely high or low planting density. All records, including those collected
by mail and face-to-face interviews, were reviewed within a computerized interactive editing system. This process
ensured that records were internally consistent (e.g. acres in blocks of fruit add up to total fruit acres reported). Some data
errors can best be identified by reviewing all records meeting a particular criterion. For example, a review of all Braeburn
apples blocks planted in the past five years on dwarfing rootstock, sorted by trees per acre, would highlight blocks with
usually high or low planting densities. The data in this survey were reviewed in an interactive analysis system that would
facilitate these types of reviews.
A small number of operations were able to provide only partial block level information. In these cases, the averages from
the reported data were used to complete the block level data. For example, a partially responding ten acre block of
USDA/NASS WA Field Office
Washington Tree Fruit Acreage Report 2011
Page 5
Cameo apples planted between 1996 and 2000 on a semi-dwarfing rootstock would have been given the trees per acre
average from responding blocks of the same characteristics to estimate the total number of trees for the block.
Block level data from responding orchards represented approximately 78 percent of the published totals. This is a
significant increase from the data coverage of 70 percent in the 2006 report. The amount varied somewhat by type of fruit.
Several steps were employed to produce the most accurate adjustments between the reported and published totals.
Acreage reported on prior NASS surveys was utilized to estimate acreage of non-responding orchards by type of fruit.
Then, recalling the 95 percent of the acreage covered by the list described earlier in this section, an additional adjustment
of approximately five percent would be added to adjust for coverage.
The adjusted survey data totals were analyzed by county for reasonableness. In addition to the adjusted survey totals
described above, data from the 2007 Census of Agriculture, the previous fruit tree acreage survey, and orchard data from
WSDA’s GIS layer were also considered in setting total fruit acreage “targets” by county and region. Targets were also
established for individual fruit crops at the state level.
Once the targets were set, the adjustments were carried through to each individual responding block of data. The same
adjustment process utilized in the Census of Agriculture, known as calibration, where the weights of responding blocks of
fruit are adjusted within tolerance ranges of the targets was used. Before adjustment, responding fruit blocks had weights
of one; after adjustment the average weight was 1.11 with a maximum weight of three. This means, for example, that a
reported ten acre block of Bing cherries containing 1,500 trees might have received a weight of, say, 1.2. After weighting,
the block of fruit would have contributed 12 acres and 1,800 trees to the published totals.
For published items containing few responses and relatively small totals, the adjustments for coverage and nonresponse
may cause some distortions. Also, if a dominant producer of a relatively rare variety did not respond, the published total
may under-represent the true total.
The data in this publication are shown to the nearest acre and tree. Publishing to the nearest acre and tree facilitates
publishing the cross-tabulations by area, rootstock, variety, and year planted. Acres were reported to the tenth of an acre.
Due to rounding, acreage by varieties may not sum to the totals. Although every effort has been made to provide high
quality data, published items should be considered to approximate the true values. For some items, there were no reports
for a breakout or insufficient reports to publish an item without disclosing individual grower data. In this publication,
specific NASS procedures were employed to protect respondents’ confidentiality. In some cases, additional items are
required to be suppressed to prevent disclosure of an individual’s data. For example, if Ambrosia apples in the
Wenatchee area are not able to be published, at least one other area would need to be suppressed or one could infer the
Wenatchee total by subtracting the published areas from the variety total. This process occasionally leads to items with a
sizeable acreage or number of reports to be suppressed. This type of suppression is called a complementary
suppression. Data suppressions and zero reported data are indicated with a “-“ in the publication.
In the 2011 survey, bearing trees and non-bearing trees were collected for each block. This allowed orchardists to report
some young non-bearing trees in mature blocks. This fact should be kept in mind when reviewing non-bearing trees by
year planted. Recent interplantings in mature blocks are reflected in the data by the year planted of the majority of the
block.
Respondents were asked to provide the year the trees were planted or topworked. During review of these data, some
reports of plantings were reported as occurring prior to the commercial release of the varieties. Upon further review,
these were typically situations where trees had been more recently topworked but the orchardist had reported the year the
trees were originally planted. The data were corrected when this situation was identified. There are likely some
additional blocks of fruit that were reported by year originally planted but have been more recently topworked.
As with 2006, the 2011 survey also included a question on rootstock (dwarf, semi-dwarf, and standard) for apples, sweet
cherries, and pears. It was expected that there would be a strong correlation between the rootstock category and a given
range of planting density. This was not the case. The reported density ranges by rootstock were much wider than
expected. Efforts were made to correct extreme density outliers; however, reported rootstocks were not forced to fit a
certain range of tree density.
New for the 2011 survey, respondents were asked to provide the number of certified organic acres as well as transition to
organic acres for each block of fruit. These results are summarized by variety and growing region. In addition,
respondents were asked to provide the total acres certified in a Food Safety GAP program. The reported acres totaled

67,376. No adjustments were made to this number for non-response, nor coverage. Data users should consider this
number as an absolute minimum.
Data included in “other varieties” include varieties with minimal acreage, unknown varieties, or varieties not published to
avoid disclosure of individual operations. Almost certainly, some acres of the published varieties are included in this other
category when the respondent did not designate the variety. The varieties of apples reported but not published include:
Akane, Cortland, Crimson Gold, Criterion, Earligold, Elstar, Empire, Envy, Gravenstein, Idared, Jonathan, Liberty, Lodi,
McIntosh, Melrose, Minneiska, Mutsu, Newtown, Opal, Orin, Pinova, Sansa, Spartan, Winesap, Winter Banana, and
Zestar.
The varieties of sweet cherries reported but not published include: Brooks, Chinook, Royal Ann, Sandra Rose, and Stella.
The varieties of pears reported but not published include: Red Sensation, Starkrimson, Taylors Gold, and Tosca.
The varieties of apricots reported but not published include: Blenheim, Casselbrite, Goldstrike, Tomcot, and Sun-glo.
The varieties of nectarines reported but not published include: Arctic Pride, Arctic Rose, August Red, Fantasia, First Red,
Flame, Flavortop, Grand Pearl, Scarlet Sun, September Red, Spring Brite, Summer Beaut, Supreme Red, and Sunglo.
The varieties of peaches reported but not published include: Allstar, Angelus, Arctic Gem, Blazingstar, Blushing Star,
Brendasun, Cresthaven, Coral Star, Crimson Lady, David Sun, Fancy Lady, Flaming Fury, Flavorcrest, Glohaven, Gold
Medal, Golden Alberta, John Henry, June Pride, June Lady, July Sun, Loring, Madison, Newhaven, Red Globe, Redstar,
Red Lady, Regina, Rio Oso Gem, Risingstar, Roza, Ryan Sun, Saturn, Sierra Gem, Sierra Lady, Starfire, Suncrest, Valley
Sweet, Veteran, and White Lady.
The varieties of prunes and plums reported but not published include: Black Amber, Catalina, Duarte, Elephant Heart,
Friar, Santa Rosa, Shiro, and Yellow Lady.
A small acreage of Balaton tart cherries were reported in the survey and were collapsed into the Montmorency variety
total.
Pluot acreage data was also collected in 2011. The total pluot acreage at the state level is estimated at 114 acres with
44,485 trees. Pluot data at region and variety levels were not published due to disclosure rules.
"Washington Fruit Survey 2011" Report as
Compared to "Washington Fruit Survey 2006" Report and Earlier Publications
Published results for tree fruit from the surveys conducted with a reference date of January 1, 1986, 1993, 2001, 2006,
and 2011 are shown in the following four tables. Data may not be comparable due to changes in survey methodology.
The results for January 1, 2001 and before were rounded to reflect that these data are estimates. The results for the
January 1, 2011 and 2006 reference dates are published to the nearest acre and tree. Publishing to the nearest acre and
tree facilitated publication of cross-tabulations by area, rootstock, variety, and year planted. Although every effort has
been made to provide high quality data, published items should be considered to approximate the true values. The 2011
survey screened out respondents with fewer than five acres of tree fruit and total grape acreage less than one acre. In
2006, any orchard or vineyard with one acre or more were asked to complete the survey. Screening out of the smaller
operations was an effort to focus time and resources on records that would have more of a significant impact on the
estimates. The methodology in 2011 was virtually the same as the 2006 survey, which used more advanced procedures
and methodology than previous studies. The main differences, described above, are the use of an area study to measure
incompleteness of the sampling list and more sophisticated adjustments for non-response and coverage. Even with the
screening process eliminating reporting for orchards with less than five acres, the proportion of reported data as a
percentage of the total fruit acres was significantly higher than 2006, leading to higher quality results. The specific
methodologies employed for this survey mirror those used for the Census of Agriculture. Also new for the 2011 survey,
respondents were asked to provide the number of certified organic acres as well as transition to organic acres for each
block of fruit. These results are summarized by variety and growing region.

Intentions for 2011 and the Next Five Years
Orchardists were asked for their intentions to topwork, remove, or plant each of the fruit crops in 2011 and their intentions
in the next five years. Most operations indicated no change. For all tree fruit, there were 151 reports of intentions to
topwork during 2011, 146 reports to remove acreage, and 233 reports to put in new plantings. Between now and 2016,
there were 202 reports of intentions to topwork, 245 reports to remove acreage, and 316 reports of new planting
intentions. Many orchardists indicated in comments that they were unsure of their one year and five year intentions at the
time of the survey. A few larger firms that supplied acreage information did not provide a response to the intentions
questions. No adjustments were made for those not responding or unsure of their intentions. Data users should evaluate
the intentions information considering the factors mentioned above and consider the data shown minimum amounts

Northwest Tree Fruit Coalition
Dear Washington Tree Fruit Grower,
Please participate in an important survey from the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), which is
enclosed.
Earlier this year, the Washington Growers Clearing House was awarded a Specialty Crop Block Grant to fund a
new Tree Fruit Acreage Survey, which will be conducted by USDA’s NASS in December and early 2011, in the
same manner a similar survey was conducted in 2006. This survey is an essential tool for setting the direction
of the various Washington tree fruit industry organizations. Strong grower participation is needed so that these
organizations can align their work with the realities of current industry varietal plantings and future growth
projections. It is vital that greater consumer demand be created through the proper allocation of resources.
Changes in varietal acreage plantings, ever more trees per acre, and the effects of accelerating industry
consolidation are a few of the components that are driving the need for industry organizations to stay current
with what is happening at the orchard level. Identifying current varietal production is paramount to the long
term success of our growers on multiple levels;
 Confirming the ever-changing varietal plantings alerts commissions to the proper allocation of resources
to promote and market our tree fruits. Domestic and international marketing strategies must align if we
are to grow future demand supported by the most opportune promotional activities.
 Export market access is critical to protecting our domestic market and improving grower profitability.
As our varietal trends change, keeping and gaining access to current, new, and emerging markets is
mandatory to our overall industry’s long term success.
 Getting more healthy and nutritious Washington tree fruits into consumers’ hands—at a profit to
growers—is our true success. Confirming acreages and extrapolating future volumes provides the
guidance necessary to stay ahead of the production curve with consumption-increasing messages.
Being responsive to grower needs is the focus of all of our industry organizations. Confirming the current and
future growth path of Washington tree fruits is important to the success of each of our organizations. We all
understand the effort needed by you to complete the NASS survey, but know that once this information has
been collected and compiled, it will be put to the best use in representing you and your fellow growers in
building towards a ‘fruitful’ future.
Your assistance in participating in the NASS Tree Fruit Acreage Survey would be greatly appreciated!

INSTRUCTIONS FOR RECORDING DETAILED INFORMATION
Information should be recorded by COUNTY, BLOCK NAME, FRUIT TYPE, VARIETY, ROOTSTOCK (only for apples, cherries, and
pears), YEAR PLANTED OR TOPWORKED, and AMERICAN VITICULTURAL AREA (for Wine Grapes). The reference date is
January 1, 2011.
(Column 1. Optional) Record block name, for our reference.
(Column 2) The county where the fruit is located should be recorded for each fruit. Use a separate line for each variety, rootstock (for
apples, cherries, and pears), and year planted or topworked.
(Columns 4 and 6) Record the type and variety of the fruit.
(Column 8) For wine grapes only, record the most definitive American Viticultural Area code for each block.
(Column 9) For apples, pears, and cherries, record the rootstock code.
(Column 10) Enter the year code of planting or year topworked for each line.
(Column 11) Record the acres of fruit (excluding roads, waste areas, abandoned orchards/vineyards) to the nearest tenth acre.
(Columns 12-13) Record the number of certified organic acres and transition to organic acres.
(Columns 14-15) Record the number of trees/vines for each line by bearing age and non-bearing age. The operator makes the
determination in classifying trees/vines as bearing age. Exclude non-harvested pollenizers in tree count.
(Column 16-18) Provide this information only if the number of trees/vines in columns 14 and 15 are not reported. Record the
percentage of acreage in the block that is of bearing age, and either the tree/vine density per acre or the block tree/vine spacing.
Include additional or clarifying information for unusual situations (irregular tree spacing patterns or interplant designs, multiple row
plantings, etc.) in the comments section or on a separate enclosure.
