Sale* over $27 million
Market* for the county'»
major crop*, onion*, *ugar
beets and potatoes repre­
sented sales of over $27
million in 1973, and with the
exception ot onion*, have
been strong thi* year. In
general good prices should
prevail again next year. And,
with the
recognition in
Washington D.C., of the
importance of agriculture to
world wide peace and pros­
perity. it appears that agri­
culture may have come fully
into its own once more.
This is not to say that there
are no problems, however.
Livestock in Malheur County,
representing $26 million in
sales during 1973. i* having
difficulty. a* it i* in other
Oregon Counties and else­
where in the nation, because
of the high co«t of feed,
over-production, and buyer
resistence.
Based on typical market
forces over the next several
months. I expect the situation
will lead to further reductions
of herds and. ultimately, to
higher beef prices. If thi*
should occur along with a
good crop year in 1975. the
cattle industry could find
itself in a profitable position
once more.
But. in the meantime, it
appears that the cattle
business is in for a number of
lean months before current
problems arc eased.
This subject give* me a
chance to mention First
National's role in agriculture,
to which we are deeply
committed.
Last year we
wore the seventh agricultural
lender among the 13,922
commercial banks in the
United States and, of course,
we continued a* the largest
private agricultural lender in
the state of Oregon.
While I would expect the
trend of Oregon's economy to
approximately parallel that of
the nation a* a whole next
year. I also believe that we
will again do somewhat
better—as we have each year
for more than a decade. And
I'm confident that Oregon
can rely on Malheur County's
agriculture and related bu­
siness activities, and general
momentum of growth, to
provide strong basic support
during the remainder of this
year and throughout 1975.
