S. C. Colton Crop
Estimate Put At
535,000 Bales In '56
A cotton crop of 535,00 bales of
500 pounds gross weight is'fore
cast for South Carolina this year,
reports the South Carolina Crop
Reporting Service. A crop of this
size would be 37,00 bales or 6 per
cent below the 1955 crop of 572-
00 bales and the 1945-54 average
production of 656,000 bales.
Bolls are opening rapidly in
southern and southeastern coun
ties. There were reports of bales
ginned’Monday, August 6.* Wee
vil infestation has increased
along with the improved soil
moisture situation after mid-July.
Acreage in cultivation July 1
less 1946-55 average abandon
ment is estimated at 691,000 ac
res. The soil bank program in
the state may be an influencing
factor in the acreage finally har
vested. The effects of the soil
bank program cannot be definite
ly determined at this time.
US Crop Below Lasi Year
A 1956 crop of 13,552,000 bales
is forecast by the Crop Report
ing Board. This is 8 per cent less
than last year’s production of
14,721,000 bales and compares
with the 10-year average of 13,-
098,000 bales. With acreage al
lotments in effect for the third
successive year, yield per acre
prospects continue to reflect the
efects of growing cotton on the
best land, the use of more and
higher analysis fertilizers, and
other improved cultural prac
tices.
