Crops for Oregon's
Wheatless Acres
Outlined by OSC
Nearly 300,000 acres of Oregon
farmlands must be withdrawn
from wheat production in 1954 as
a result of the recent decision by
American farmers to take an
acreage cut to retain support
prices at 90 percent of parity.
E. R. Jackman, extension farm
crops specialist at Oregon State
college, says barley would norm

farmers for diverted acres plus
increased oats plantings in west

course has serious drawbacks, ac

Jackman believes that support
prices on barley and oats, made
at the discretion of the secretary
of agriculture, would not like

becomes acute as the result of
large stores of barley, oats, rye
and sorghums.
