In 2018, which US state produced the most pumpkins in the United States?

Being one of the most popular crops in the United States, in 2017 over 680 million kilograms (1.5 billion pounds) of pumpkins were produced. Pumpkin production is widely dispersed throughout the United States, with crop conditions varying greatly by region. All States produce some pumpkins, but in 2017 about 40 percent of pumpkin acres were grown in five states: Illinois, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Texas, and California. (2017 U.S. Census of Agriculture, USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS)). In 2018, in spite of reduced acreage, Illinois maintained its leading position, harvesting twice as many pumpkin acres as any of the other top States.

Illinois harvests the largest share of pumpkin acreage among all States and an even larger share of processing acres. Almost 80 percent of pumpkin acres in Illinois are devoted to pie filling or other processing uses, compared with about 2 percent in Pennsylvania and even less in California.
