Onions Going Begging In Kaw Valley Harvest
The Kaw Valley onion harvest slows as demand falls and southern onions flood markets. Paul Phillips of the Production and Marketing administration and assistant Robert Crawford report about 150 carloads of Wyandotte and Johnson county onions risk waste. About 100 truck gardeners are affected by the weak market despite high yields averaging over 300 bushels per acre.
