The value of Washington farm goods was flat in 2021, barely exceeding the worth of crops and livestock in 2020, according to the USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service.

Farmers and ranchers produced products valued at $10.2 billion. The value was $19,499 higher in 2021 than the year before. The record is $10.7 billion set in 2015.

Five commodities made up 55% of the value. Apples are unchallenged as Washington’s flagship crop. Milk kept its hold on the second slot.

Cattle and calves climbed two spots to third. Wheat, which suffered through a drought year, fell one slot to fourth. Potatoes also fell one spot, slipping to fifth.

Hay had a good year and climbed one notch to sixth. Hops also had a solid year and went up one step to seventh.

Sweet cherries fell two spots to eighth. The crop in 2021 was bigger than the year before, but prices were lower.

Grapes were steady in ninth place. Blueberries enjoyed a record year and supplanted eggs at No. 10.

Outside the top 10, raspberries enjoyed a 75% increase in value to a record $110 million. Corn for grain was up 34% to $122 million.

The value of Washington’s canola crop increased for a sixth straight year, rising to $44.3 million.

Eggs were down 16% to $184 million. Onions declined 28% to $101 million.

Washington led the U.S. in six crops: apples, blueberries, hops, pears, spearmint oil and sweet cherries.

The values reported by the USDA do not include government payments.
