California Bearing Grape AcreageBy Varietal Type, Production and Yield Per Acre
B E A R I N G A C R E A G E
TEN YEAR AVERAGE
The total production of grapes in California continues to be influenced more by the change in production per acre than by any change in bearing acreage. The ten year average grape production per acre was 5.2 tons - 1940-49; 6.2 tons - 1950-59; 7.1 tons - 1960-69; 7.0 tons - 1970-79; 7.92 tons - 1980-89 and 8.02 tons for the ten years 1990-99. The increased production per acre has been significant in the increase in total grape production. The 10 year average bearing acreage for 1940-49 was 501,785 acres, the 10 year average for 1980-89 was 643,329 acres and 673,270 acres for the ten years 1990-99.
