Maryland Farm Front This Week Potatoes and sweet potato price changes
Maryland reports reduced government purchases of Irish potatoes under the 1949 price support, buying only 125 carloads, down from 431 last year, with most grades sold for livestock feed. National costs also shrink from about 225 million to under 50 million dollars. Efforts aim to cut marketing charges on sweet potatoes, while support prices for Golden and Jersey types hold at 1.30 per unit, up 20 cents for Porto Ricans and Nancy Halls.
