Short Crop of Onions in Northern Indiana Market
The 1913 onion market in northern Indiana is half its quality of 1912 with prices about double. Dealers offer farmers 70 to 75 cents a bushel, some stock for storage but reserves are light and a $2 winter onion price is feared. The National Onion Growers Association met secretly but took little concrete action, and it denies price fixing. The tale traces crops from 1910 glut to 1911 shortfall to 1912 overplanting, with 1913 planting also reduced by discouragement after last year’s price drops.
