Reduced Wheat Crop May Shrink Output In 1933
The Agriculture Department warned that if rains fail in the northwestern states the spring wheat crop may shrink from last year due to a prior drought. The estimated total crop stands at about 700 million bushels, with 450 million winter and 250 million spring wheat. Carryover could rise by 20 to 50 million bushels, while total supplies may fall by about 150 million bushels from the 1931-32 season. Exportable stocks and world figures are cited, with carryover projections around 340 million bushels by July 1. The report notes lower prices and livestock feeding impact on consumption.
