April Crop Report Shows Sharp Wheat Area Decline
The agricultural commissioner reports April conditions show over a 10 percent drop in winter wheat area from last year, with a total 3,000,000 acre shortage. Declines hit nearly every state except Oregon, and soil and disease factors threaten output, estimating about 40,000,000 bushels less yield unless conditions improve. Rye acreage falls similarly but with better crop condition at about 87 percent.
