Abstract
The harvested area of rye in American agriculture is 322,000 acres in 2023, the latest available figure. Based on past trends, rye cultivation in the United States is carried out in a variety of regions, and production volumes vary due to differences in climatic conditions and soil. In addition, with the advancement of agricultural technology, efficient production methods are being adopted. In addition, changes in demand and domestic and international competitive conditions also have an impact, affecting production volumes and harvested areas. Considering these factors, it can be said that rye cultivation in the United States is fluctuating but is establishing a stable production system.
All rye classes
Rye cultivation in the United States has a long history and shows various characteristics through data from 1866 to 2023. The area cultivated with rye has fluctuated over the past few centuries, including a peak of 7.19 million acres in 1919. However, the current area is only about 4.48% of the peak area, suggesting that rye cultivation is on the decline. This trend is caused by multiple factors, including changes in food demand, the influence of agricultural policies, and competition from competing crops. It is also possible that the shift to more productive crops is progressing due to advances in agricultural technology and efficiency. Under these circumstances, rye cultivation in the United States is trying to maintain its position while seeking a balance between its traditions from the past and the demands of modern agriculture.


The maximum is 7.19M ACRES[1919] of US TOTAL, and the current value is about 4.48%
All Rye Classes (each state)
According to 2023 data, North Dakota has the largest rye cultivation area in the United States. The overall average is 31.8 thousand acres, with a total of 159 thousand acres of rye cultivated. As can be seen from this figure, rye cultivation is widespread throughout the United States, especially in northern states. On the other hand, compared to other agricultural crops, the cultivated area of rye tends to be relatively small. This is because the demand for rye is limited compared to other grains and crops, so the cultivated area is not very large. It is also possible that advances in agricultural technology are leading to a shift to more profitable crops. Against this background, rye cultivation continues, although it has different characteristics depending on the region.

All Rye Classes (latest year, each state)
According to the 2023 data, North Dakota has the largest overall area of cultivated agricultural rye in the United States. This suggests that rye cultivation is thriving in this state. Also, when compared with past data, it is clear that the value in 2023 is the largest ever. This suggests that rye cultivation may be on the rise. Possible factors for this increase include changes in demand and efficiency due to advances in agricultural technology. In addition, North Dakota has climate and soil conditions suitable for rye cultivation, which may contribute to the expansion of cultivation in the region. Overall, the cultivation of agricultural rye in the United States is on the rise, especially in North Dakota, and it can be said that it will continue to be one of the agricultural activities that will attract attention.
