About This Dataset
Top 10 Potato-Producing US States, 2025
Idaho leads this top 10 ranking with 139.953 million cwt in the 2025 crop year. Washington follows with 91.035 million cwt. The first three states account for 62.3% of the combined published state estimates for this crop.
The source is USDA NASS State Agriculture Overviews for 2025, retrieved on October 20, 2026. We checked the numeric production estimates across the state pages. 13 states have a numeric estimate for this crop; only the ten largest are shown here.
This is potato crop production, measured by weight rather than the number of potatoes. Sweet potatoes are a different USDA commodity and are excluded. One US hundredweight (cwt) equals 100 pounds. Original production counts are divided by 1,000,000 to express the values in million cwt. No additional rounding is applied to the stored counts.
These are production estimates for the 2025 harvest, not 2026 forecasts. USDA may revise estimates; the overview snapshot is the reference for this ranking. Missing or unpublished state values are not converted to zero. The three-state share uses the combined reported estimates, not an assumed all-state national total.
