Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Crops and Markets, Vol. 22: July 1945
As nearly 'as can be determined at this time, the acreage planted will fall only about V2 million acres below the prospective planted acreage for the crops that were covered in the March Prospective Plantings Report. That such an acreage could be planted is a remarkable accomplishment in view of the adverse weather which interfered with land preparation and planting operations. Not all'of the planned acreage of corn and small grains, especially barley, could be planted this spring in the Corn Belt, North Atlantic, and in' the West South Central States. Though sorghum planting in the southern sections of the principal grow ing area may continue into August, operations have been held up by too much wet and cold weather in the northern part, and by severe drou ht in the southern part of the area. July 1 information in 'cates that sorghum acreage will fall somewhat short of earlier intentions, even though some large shifts to this crop from small-grains, corn, and cotton have already occurred.
