Frederick county growers plan to reduce tomato acreage this spring and focus on improved practices on smaller plots. L. C. Beamer notes a nationwide trend toward spraying in beds, soil selection, and more fertilizer. With lower acreage, the market outlook is expected to improve versus last year as most tomatoes go to local canneries in Frederick and nearby West Virginia.

Area of Production Still Bone of Contention
Hearing on the area of production regulation features R G Phillips for the International Apple Association and leaders from the National League and United Association. They argue Regulations 536.2 misdefine area of production and oppose limits tied to wages or plant size. They cite long industry practice from Maine to California and stress that perishable fruit and vegetable sectors span extensive regions, not city centers.
