You May Be The One Crop Report Parity Notes
Texas Crop and Livestock Reporting Service urges 24 000 farmers to expect a crop questionnaire and file by mail. Parity for agriculture sits at 72 in April, with most commodities still below parity as wheat and cotton lag and hogs beef cattle and calves far under. The report covers feed sheep and lambs on feed, placements and marketing plans, along with notes on mechanization, alfalfa history and early temperance farming efforts.

County Agent Sees Limits to Organic Farming
County Agent notes that organic gardening has grown but faces pest control limits and fertility problems. Marketing hurdles lack regulation, fraud risk exists, and overall yields may not meet national needs. Organically grown produce offers few nutrition differences and cannot replace large scale production.
Caution Urged In Purchase of Pesticides
Agriculture Commissioner John C. White warns Texans about high pressure telephone pesticide sales. He cites cases in eleven states where farmers were duped with claims of crop use and extended weed control, while labels showed non crop use. He urges reading labels and knowing the seller.
