Crop Reporting Service Forecasts 1972 Acreages in Pennsylvania
Pennsylvania farmers project 1,460,000 acres for principal crops in 1972, down modestly from last year. Corn declines while soybeans rise 26 percent to 43,000 acres, tobacco up 3 percent to 17,500, and potatoes totaling 36,500 acres remain stable. Secretaries warn figures are intentions and depend on weather, prices, stocks, and farmer decisions.
