March 1 planting intentions from the State Crop Reporting Service show Pennsylvania farmers expect to plant 5 262 000 acres of corn hay and tobacco, down for some crops from last year while hay and other grains rise slightly. Officials warn intentions may change due to weather labor and finances and note national totals could set crop records if all farmers follow through.
