House Agriculture Group Backs 1955 Cotton Acreage Boost
The House Agriculture Committee approves legislation raising national cotton acreage by three percent per state. California would gain 23 361 acres, totaling 543 234 acres for 20 cotton states, with baleage rising to about 300 000 bales. California could earn roughly 7 million dollars in extra income for San Joaquin Imperial and Coachella Valley counties. The plan aims to relieve hardship for small and mid size farms through county reserves and stabilization committees. Farmers urged to file for additional acreage if their 1955 allotments are unsatisfactory.
