Idaho potato acreage to rise despite warnings report
University of Idaho extension economists Robert Wilcox and Virgil Kennedy say Idaho plans to plant about 166 000 acres of potatoes this year, a slight rise from last year, while national acreage grows only about one percent. They warn Maine could have a larger crop on less land and note Idaho's 1954 yield was the lowest since 1949, implying a potential crop total around 48 600 000 bushels if trends continue.
