Prospects for 1943 crop show decline
Washington (UP) –
The Agricultural Department reported today that crop prospects declined in most parts of the nation during April and are now “much less promising” than they were at this time last year.
The crop reporting board said that conditions on April 1 indicated winter wheat crop of 515,159,000 bushels, the smallest since 1935 and 27% under 1942.
It estimated rye production at 36,854,000 bushels, compared with 57,241,000 bushels last year.
The less favorable prospects were due largely to extremely dry weather over the southern part of the Great Plains. April rainfall between the Mississippi River and the Rocky Mountains averaged 30% below normal, the department said.
