Wheat Objective Yield Survey 2017
Form A Do not change the 101 box Situations that cause the operations wheat acres to be different from the March Ag Survey
1. Operator does not currently operate the entire acreage reported as winter wheat in March 2. Operator operates more land than in March that may have wheat seeded on it already 3. Operator does not have a change in land acreage but reporting error on the March Agricultural Survey
Wheat Objective Yield Survey 2017
Form A Operator does not currently operate the entire acreage reported as Winter Wheat in March. For example, part or all the land was sold, leased, or rented to someone else. 1. Include the land that has changed hand in with the original operator’s acreage as you complete the grid. 2. Select fields based on the complete acreage in Table A. If the sample field is controlled by the original operator obtain permission to enter. If the sample field is operated by a different person you will need to contact the new operator for permission. 3. Obtain the name, address and phone number of the new operator.
Wheat Objective Yield Survey 2017
Form A Operator operates more land than in March that may have wheat seeded on it already. 1. Exclude this new acreage when you complete the grid in Table A. 2. Select the sample field and proceed with interview.

Form A Operator does not have a change in land acreage but reporting error on the March Agricultural Survey
1. Make a note and proceed with interview.

Form B Step 1 -- Mark half-way point in specified row in clip area.
Step 2 -- MOW (cut stalk within 2 inches of base) all wheat stalks in specified row until 5 Emerged Heads (If that many) are obtained OR until one-half the row is completely mowed. Begin mowing at the end of the row farthest from count area and mow in direction of count area. Examine each stalk for emerged head as it is mowed; if present, clip stalk 1/2 inch below the head. Place the 5 (or less) emerged heads in a small bag. Record count on YELLOW I.D. tag. Also, when mowing, clip and count any heads in late boot at base of top foliage leaf and place in a medium size bag.
Wheat Objective Yield Survey 2017
Form B Step 3 -- MOW remaining stalks up to the half-way mark. Examine each stalk and determine which ones are emerged heads and late boot heads. CLIP the stalk 1/2 inch below the emerged head or at base of top foliage leaf for late boot heads. Place the remaining emerged heads in a large bag and the late boot heads in a medium bag. Step 4 -- Record the count of the remaining emerged heads and the late boot heads on the YELLOW I.D. tag.
Wheat Objective Yield Survey 2017
Form B Repeat steps 1 through 4 for Unit 2 using same bags for emerged heads and late boot heads as used in Unit 1. Prepare one I.D. tag. Label all bags with sample number. Seal and place the small and medium size bags in the large bag. Seal large bag. Verify and date YELLOW I.D. tag and attach to outside of large bag.
Check here after placing the large bag in a Tyvek envelope addressed to NATIONAL LABORATORY. ENTER enumerator and supervisor numbers and sign name.
Wheat Objective Yield Survey 2017
Form B 1. Place first 5 emerged heads into Small bag. 2. Place heads in the late boot stage into Medium bag. 3. Place the rest of emerged head into Large bag. 4. Repeat for unit 2 in same bags. 5. Place sealed Small bag and Medium bag into Large bag. 6. Attach Yellow ID tag. 7. UPS to the national lab in St. Louis

Form B 12. WITHIN COUNT AREAS -- Clip and Count all heads in count area of BOTH units following steps below. Use a separate large bag for each unit. Step 1 -- Clip all heads in Late Boot at base of top foliage leaf in Row 1 Compare with item 8 count. Step 2 -- Clip all Emerged heads 1/2 inch below head in Row 1 Compare with item 9a count and place emerged heads in same bag with late boot heads.

Form B 12. WITHIN COUNT AREAS -- Clip and Count all heads in count area of BOTH units following steps below. Use a separate large bag for each unit. Step 3 -- Repeat steps 1 and 2 for Rows 2 and 3. -- Check counts.
Step 4 -- Pick up all Detached Heads on ground in unit counted in item 9b. Place in bag with clipped heads. Copy recorded heads from items 8 and 9 of Form B onto PINK I.D. Tags. Date & attach one I.D. Tag to each large bag. Check here after placing bags in a Tyvek envelope addressed to NATIONAL LABORATORY.
