Galloway reports beet sugar growth amid drought lessons
Prof. Galloway, head of the Department of Agriculture’s plant industry bureau, returns from drought zones to say farmers are diversifying crops and that beet sugar is expanding. He cites a profit of about 15 dollars per acre from beet farming and notes Michigan on the southern peninsula now grows beets nearly replacing corn. He warns of possible overproduction in the middle West and mentions generally rising import and export values for the Philippines trade and farm labor trends in the United States.
