Wheat Production Records of 1924 Show Big Growth
The International Institute of Agriculture reports a 3.9 percent world wheat production rise by March 1924 over 1923. Most major wheat regions show favorable results, except Punjab where frosts and drought hindered crops, while the U S reports satisfactory yields. The sugar beet industry is also rising with expectations of higher beet sugar output this year. Cane sugar crops appear unlikely to fall below last year’s figures, possibly surpassing them, though official data are incomplete.
