Safflower Proposed as Profitable Western Plains Crop
Western Great Plains farmers urged to plant safflower on diverted wheat land. Carl E. Claassen of Pacific Oil Seeds said contracts guarantee $66 per ton and 3.30 per bushel, with yields 600 to 2000 pounds per acre. He cited better prospects than millet, milo, barley, or corn and noted growth in new safflower uses.
