Next Year Cutworm Outbreak Forecast From Lethbridge
Dominion Field Crop Insect Laboratory at Lethbridge predicts a pale western cutworm outbreak in 1951. The report notes heavy damage this year and warns the 1951 infestation could be worse and more widespread. A single control method is advised: complete summer fallow as near July end as possible and avoid touching the land until mid September to let crust form and deter moth egg laying, especially where rainfall was scarce.

World Wheat Prospects In 1950 For Pakistan And Syria
Pakistan estimates its 1950 wheat crop at about 150 million bushels with 10.71 million acres, a slight decrease from 1949, and an exportable surplus of at least 18.7 million bushels for 1950-51.
