Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Demand and Price Situation, Vol. 67: July 1960 Another year of high production of farm products is indicated for 1960, according to preliminary estimates in the July Crop Report. Crop output would equal the all-time highs attained in 1958 and 1959. Planted acreage of 333 million is estimated for 1960 harvest, about 45 million below last year. But yields are expected to average slightly higher. Prospective trends in production of meat animals and other livestock products point to combined output near the record levels of 1959. Feed grain tonnage is likely to fall short of last year's record output by around 4percent as prospects for less corn and sorghum grains more than offset increases indicated for oats and barley. Food grain production now looks as if it will exceed 1959 output by about 18 percent With sizable increases for both Winter and spring wheat; the indicated production of rice is about the same as in 1959. Larger acreages than in 1959 were planted to soybeans, flaxseed and cotton while acreages were smaller for tobacco, dry beans and peas. Vegetable acreage for processing is about the same as in 1959, but below average, and fruit production ingen eral is not expected to match 1959 output. Production of livestock and livestock products may total close to 1959 output. Reduced production of hogs and eggs this year Will be largely offset by increased production of beef cattle, broilers and dairy products.
