The United States is the world’s #1 net exporter of food. The American farmer, only 2% of the population, is unmatched in efficiency and productivity. The US Department of Agriculture<\/a> (USDA) has been a scientific partner to American agriculture for over a century.<\/p>\n

One of the products USDA produces in support of American agriculture is the USDA NASS CropScape cropland layer of the United States<\/a>. CropScape helps gather statistics of cultivated land cover by tracking what crops are planted during a growing season, and where.<\/p>\n

For the first time, CropScape has been published as a time series in the Living Atlas of the World, under the service name USA Cropland<\/a>. Esri obtained NASS CropScape cropland imagery back to 2008, the first year all 48 conterminous US states were produced in one piece under the CropScape name. Esri assembled all eleven CropScape growing seasons since 2008 into a one-year-per-frame series that is ready for both analysis and animated display.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

The Corn Belt<\/strong><\/p>\n

Or is it the Soybean Belt? Here in Le Mars, Iowa, we see the rotation between corn (yellow) and soybeans (green). By rotating soy and corn, farmers see higher yield in both products than in their respective monocultures. Soybeans are legumes which host nitrogen-fixing bacteria in their roots. These bacteria help take care of most of the plant’s nitrogen needs. As a result, soybeans can be part of a strategy which reduces fertilizer costs, increases yield for alternate year crops, and produces protein for feed. Soybeans yield a seed that is 40% protein, a valuable resource for feed and food processing.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":523732,"id":523732,"title":"Corn and Soybeans in Rotation","filename":"cornsoy1.gif","filesize":1070685,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/cornsoy1.gif","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-living-atlas\/mapping\/time-enabled-croplands-reveal-the-rhythms-of-american-agriculture\/cornsoy1","alt":"","author":"4941","description":"Corn and Soybeans in Rotation, Le Mars, Iowa","caption":"Corn and Soybeans in Rotation, Le Mars, Iowa","name":"cornsoy1","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":523652,"date":"2019-06-11 20:34:22","modified":"2019-06-11 20:35:13","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/gif","type":"image","subtype":"gif","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1920,"height":1080,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/cornsoy1-213x200.gif","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/cornsoy1.gif","medium-width":464,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/cornsoy1.gif","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":432,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/cornsoy1.gif","large-width":1920,"large-height":1080,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/cornsoy1.gif","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":864,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/cornsoy1.gif","2048x2048-width":1920,"2048x2048-height":1080,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/cornsoy1-826x465.gif","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/cornsoy1.gif","wide_image-width":1920,"wide_image-height":1080}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

The Ogallala Aquifer<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rice in California<\/strong><\/p>\n

In parts of Northern California, there is water surplus in spring. During these times, the flat, clay soils of the Sacramento Valley tend to hold water like a big bathtub. Closest to the Sacramento River, natural levees form soils that are well drained, allowing for many crop choices. In recent years the crops in this area have been corn, tomatoes, sunflower, olives, almonds, and walnuts, among others. But away from the river, where soils are not so well drained, crop choices are restricted. A natural pairing for these kind of clay soils is rice agriculture. In this image you can see annual crops change in soils that are well-drained, while the dense-soil areas that grow rice (in periwinkle blue) grow it every season.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":523762,"id":523762,"title":"Rice Cultivation, Butte City, California","filename":"rice1.gif","filesize":1552550,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/rice1.gif","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-living-atlas\/mapping\/time-enabled-croplands-reveal-the-rhythms-of-american-agriculture\/rice1","alt":"Rice Cultivation, Butte City, California","author":"4941","description":"Rice Cultivation, Butte City, California","caption":"Rice Cultivation, Butte City, California","name":"rice1","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":523652,"date":"2019-06-11 20:42:10","modified":"2019-06-11 20:43:24","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/gif","type":"image","subtype":"gif","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1920,"height":1080,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/rice1-213x200.gif","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/rice1.gif","medium-width":464,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/rice1.gif","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":432,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/rice1.gif","large-width":1920,"large-height":1080,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/rice1.gif","1536x1536-width":1536,"1536x1536-height":864,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/rice1.gif","2048x2048-width":1920,"2048x2048-height":1080,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/rice1-826x465.gif","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/rice1.gif","wide_image-width":1920,"wide_image-height":1080}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"storymap","title":"Try it!","description":"

National Land Cover Dataset is masked out of the USA Cropland service by default<\/strong><\/p>\n

CropScape indicates what crop or crops were grown on cultivated lands in the USA during a growing season. But what about the non-cultivated lands? CropScape fills in these areas with land cover from NLCD, the National Land Cover Dataset<\/a>. This is helpful because some agricultural lands (such as grazed and forested lands) are not tracked by CropScape. However, the NLCD data in non-cultivated areas changes only about every 5 years while CropScape cultivated lands change every year. As a result, some areas appear to change often while others do not. A lack of change could be due to a difference in data frequency, not from lack of change in the landscape.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, in the time period after the 2018 CropScape was released in early 2019, the MRLC released a new set of NLCD datasets, going back to the year 2000, with 2016 as the most recent. As a result, the 2011 NLCD parts of the 2018 CropScape data were already out of date just a few weeks after the CropScape data was released in 2019.<\/p>\n

For these reasons, Esri’s USA Cropland service has a bit different default behavior than what might be expected. The default processing template for USA Cropland, the analytic renderer<\/strong>, masks out non-cultivated areas. This helps make change analysis more accurate, since only what changes every year is enabled in the template. To display NLCD parts of the dataset that are turned off by default, you may instead choose the cartographic renderer<\/strong> in the set of processing templates.<\/p>\n

But here’s a better suggestion. In your map, display the new time-enabled USA NLCD Land Cover service<\/a> from the Living Atlas of the World directly beneath the USA Cropland service. We created a web map<\/a> that gets this layer mashup started for you, that way you can make a copy and modify this map within the ArcGIS platform. There is also a web map application<\/a> of this map that is pre-configured and ready to share.<\/p>\n

Processing Templates Simplify Display<\/strong><\/p>\n

To display stock USDA colors with this service, or to help display a smaller, more targeted set of symbols, processing templates are available which display the top 10 products in US agriculture. These are Corn, Cotton, Rice, Wheat, Soybeans, Sugar, Oil crops, Fruit, Vegetables, and Nuts.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":524672,"id":524672,"title":"Changing Processing Templates","filename":"imagedisplay.jpg","filesize":171571,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-living-atlas\/mapping\/time-enabled-croplands-reveal-the-rhythms-of-american-agriculture\/imagedisplay","alt":"Changing Processing Templates in ArcGIS Online","author":"4941","description":"","caption":"To change processing templates in ArcGIS Online, choose \"image display\".","name":"imagedisplay","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":523652,"date":"2019-06-12 16:55:23","modified":"2019-06-12 16:58:14","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1179,"height":747,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay-213x200.jpg","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay.jpg","medium-width":412,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":487,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay.jpg","large-width":1179,"large-height":747,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay.jpg","1536x1536-width":1179,"1536x1536-height":747,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay.jpg","2048x2048-width":1179,"2048x2048-height":747,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay-734x465.jpg","card_image-width":734,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay.jpg","wide_image-width":1179,"wide_image-height":747}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":524692,"id":524692,"title":"Choose a Template","filename":"imagedisplay2.jpg","filesize":189277,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay2.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/arcgis-living-atlas\/mapping\/time-enabled-croplands-reveal-the-rhythms-of-american-agriculture\/imagedisplay2","alt":"Choose a template","author":"4941","description":"","caption":"Next, choose a renderer which matches the color scheme or product you want.","name":"imagedisplay2","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":523652,"date":"2019-06-12 17:00:48","modified":"2019-06-12 17:03:48","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1241,"height":705,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay2-213x200.jpg","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay2.jpg","medium-width":459,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay2.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":436,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay2.jpg","large-width":1241,"large-height":705,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay2.jpg","1536x1536-width":1241,"1536x1536-height":705,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay2.jpg","2048x2048-width":1241,"2048x2048-height":705,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay2-819x465.jpg","card_image-width":819,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2019\/06\/imagedisplay2.jpg","wide_image-width":1241,"wide_image-height":705}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""}],"authors":[{"ID":4941,"user_firstname":"Michael","user_lastname":"Dangermond","nickname":"Michael Dangermond","user_nicename":"mdangermond","display_name":"Michael Dangermond","user_email":"MDangermond@esri.com","user_url":"","user_registered":"2018-03-02 00:16:36","user_description":"Michael Dangermond has over 25 years experience in GIS in such diverse fields as cartography, agriculture, international boundary delineation, environmental protection, regional planning, park planning, land and wildlife conservation, and forestry.
