1952 Oats Standards for Victorian Milling and Feed Oats
The committee set 1952 oat standards for Victorian milling and feed oats. Nine hundred five samples from 74 railway stations defined typical Algerian and other varieties, plus standard bushel weights: Algerian 40, milling 40, No. 1 feed 39, feed oats 39.5. Merchants welcomed the clarified exporting terms and overall grain brightness remained high with slightly more foreign matter than 1951.
