S. Department of Agriculture reports. High yields were primarily re sponsible for the record crop. How' ever, the large acreage harvested and the favorable growing season were important contributing fac tors. The aggregate volume of crops last yyear was 26 percent above the 1923-32 pre-drought) average, two points above the previous record of 1942 and seven points above the 1945 crop. It is pointed out that both the quan tity and the quality were outstand' ing last year. A total of 52 crops were har vested off nearly 346 million acres. 1 This acreage was slightly smaller i j than during the previous three ■ years, but larger than any year be- ! tween 1933 and 1942. During the i 1929-32 period, crop acreage aver aged between 355 and 362 mil lion acres. Cash receipts from farm mar ketings during the first 11 months of 1946 amounted to about 21.6 [ billion dollars—14 percent above the same period in 1945. Receipts from livestock and livestock pro ducts were approximately 10 per cent greater than last year, and crop receipts aout 19 percent high, er. The increase in crop receipts was brought about mainly by large gains in receipts from" cot ton and oil bearing crops. 10c TER COPY and Worth It!
