Oat Estimate Of State Is Going Upward Nebraska's oat crop estimate, based on July 1 conditions, has been raised by the U. S. agricul ture department. Now expected is a production of 73.224,000 bushels on a yield of 27 bushels to the acre. That's far above last year's 49.720,000 bushel crop and well above the average of 55,740.000 bushels for the 10 year period. 1939 to 1948: In the past 84 years. Nebras ka's oat crop has gone better than 27 bushels to the acre in 50 seasons. The biggest oats pro duction was 102.810.000 bushels in 1947 on a yield of 34.5 bushels to the acre. In 1866 a yield of 38.5 bushels was reported out only 15 acres of the hlgh-yleldlrig stuff was harvested. Nebraska expects to harvest 2, 712,000 acres of oats this year, thev department of agriculture says. The estimate made no change from the 11 bushel per acre rye yield predicted a month earlier but a downward in acreage for harvest reduces the total indi cated production by 66.000 bush els. The new estimate is for 2,244, 000 bushels from 204.000 acres. Last year's production was 1. 606,000 bushels from 8.5 bushels per acre. The 10 vear average, 1939 to 1948. is 3,799,000 bushels from 10.7 bushels to the acre. The department predicted Ne braska will harvest 980,000 bags (100 pounds each) from it. 70,- j 000 acres of dry beans, princi- I pally in western Nebraska.
