Net Tet Determined I
Just what the prospects are for
berries in Oregon, this spring can
not yet be determined fieldmen
for canners said Thursday. Gener
al estimates were for a compara
tively light loss --from 3 to 10
per cent - - from winter weather
injury. Bearing acreage as a
whole, if Injury Is small, will be
considerably larger this season, es
timates -show.
Fresh shipments from the south
so far this season are running well
ahead of last year. Strawberries
have moved out of Florida since
early January, and nine cars had
been shipped from Louisiana by
February 20, reports released
Thursday by the USDA show.
This is a near record for early
shipments from Louisiana.
Due In Mid-March
Shipments- in volume are ex
pected about mid-March. Last sea
son. Louisiana shipped 986 cars of
fresh berries besides large quan
tities moved by? truck and some
processed. Surveys on results of
efforts to move carryovers as well
as the effect of these on the arriv-
ral of fresh berries are now being
made by the department of agri
culture and will be completed
within the next two weeks.
Injury to local berry fields will
also be known better before the
end of March, fieldmen stated
Thursday. Some of the injury is in
the roots and cannot be seen until
actual growth starts, growers ssr.
At present, the outlook for little
injury is optimistic, they said.
