Crop values show Nebraska’s relative stability in 1930 survey
Nebraska crop values are projected to fall about 4 percent from 1929, a smaller drop than most middle western states. Iowa Kansas Missouri and South Dakota face 12 to 28 percent declines while Oklahoma Kentucky Tennessee and Texas see 41 to 66 percent losses. Nebraska ranks third in total crop values behind Iowa and Illinois, with production higher in 1930 due to lower prices. Prof. T Bruce Robb notes the smaller decrease reflects stronger output despite price drops.
