Figs Competition and Tariff Impacts on Dried Figs Trade
The article notes California figs struggle without Smyrna figs, yielding low prices. It traces Smyrna fig imports 1894 to 1898 and 1899 figures, tariff effects from 1897, rising 1899 imports, and predicts near halt of imports as home-grown figs meet demand. Transportation costs and quality influence eastern prices and overall dried fig consumption.
