North Dakota Grain and Oilseed Transportation Statistics, 2021-22

This report represents a continuation of analysis concerned with the patterns and methods of distributing grain from North Dakota. The collection and compilation of this type of data began in 1956-57. The objectives of this report, like prior reports, are to provide the necessary database for identifying trends in the distribution of grain and oilseeds from North Dakota. Data are tabulated according to major characteristics which typically describe commodity flows. The major shipment characteristics considered are destination, mode, origin, time and commodity. These characteristics are defined as follows: (1) Destination: Minneapolis-St. Paul, Duluth-Superior, Pacific Northwest (ID, OR, WA), Other Minnesota/Wisconsin, Midland & Gulf states (AR, AZ, CA, CO, IA, KS, LA, MO, MT, NE, NM, NV, OK, SD, TX, and WY), North Dakota and other destinations; (2) Mode: rail or truck, rail includes commodity credit corporation shipments; (3) Origin: the nine crop reporting districts in North Dakota; (4) Time: by month, from July 2021 to June 2022, and previous years; (5) Commodity: hard red spring wheat, durum, barley, sunflower, soybeans, corn, canola, dry edible beans, and dry edible peas. The data used to analyze North Dakota grain distribution patterns for the period July 2021 through June 2022 were obtained from all country elevators in North Dakota. The data source is the North Dakota Department of Agriculture’s “Grain Movement Report.” Every country elevator in North Dakota is required under state statute to assemble and submit a “Grain Movement Report” to the North Dakota Department of Agriculture on a monthly basis.
