Smallest Corn Crop in Fifty Years Forecast for 1986
Washington reports a corn crop of 1,489,135,000 bushels, the smallest in over five decades, due to weeks of heat and drought. The Federal Crop Reporting Board says production will be about 2.6 percent below the 1934 short crop, predicting light supplies of key foods and likely heavy grain marketing and livestock rations. Pastures in one quarter of states are among the poorest on record for August 1, with nationwide pastures nearly as poor as in 1934.
