Pennsylvania farm storage aids wheat price support
Pennsylvania farmers in a federal storage program have placed 240,702 bushels of wheat in storage this year, receiving government loans averaging just over $1.24 per bushel. Nationwide wheat production exceeds estimated requirements, prompting the program to dampen price drops and build a national reserve. By 1942, plans for expanding the program include county conventions and agricultural conservation committees to set soil-building goals and acreage allotments. Cool nights aid peach ripening and labor relief, while tomatoes, corn, and canneries face delays and altered schedules due to weather and labor shortages.
