South Carolina Corn Stocks Drop Amid Looming Agricultural Outlook

A government report by UC USDA statistician B. B. Hare shows South Carolina held about 22.5 million bushels of last year’s corn on March 1, down from 1.22 million the previous year, while U S totals reached 1 5723 million bushels. State land values show poor plow land at 32 dollars per acre and good lands at 68 dollars per acre with overall average 60 dollars. Rental cash for plow fields averaged 8 dollars per acre with market value around 45 dollars per acre. The outlook notes labor is near normal, but cotton prospects are grim due to low prices, fertilizer costs, weevil, and weak credit.
