Correspondingly the value of the crop has increased nearly 200 per cent. = TOBACCO Tobacco ranks as one of our major money crops and during this period the acreage has increased from 73,100 in 1940, to 104,100 in 1953: Likewise the total pro- duction has increased 54,380,000 pounds. The value of the erop is as follows: gO a $12,458,000 Pees cae, . $50,669,000 B08 en $69,205,000 PEANUTS According to official figures, the total acreage planted has decreased to some extent, but through the use of better seed, better fertilization and other factors, the per acre yield has increased, The cash value of the crop is as follows: WOBU a. oee es -. $19,193,000 BOIU eee 5 ce oe FS $69,257,000 MOOS aCe eee ey $57,352,000 SMALL GRAIN ~* = The production of wheat, oats and other small grain has likewise increased considerably during this period due to many factors. The present acre yield has been stepped up and the value of the crop has increased correspondingly. LIVESTOCK aoe The number of cattle and calves on farms in Georgia has increased from 953,- 000 January 1, 1940, to 1,439; 3000 January 1, 1954, The value of sales of livestock has in- creased from $6,484,000 in 1940, to $35,- 354,000 in 1952, The value of dairy products sold has increased from $29,663,000 in 1940, to _ $41,977,000 in 1952. HOGS Though the number of hogs on farms _ of Georgia has not increased during this _ period, the average value per head has increased from $5.60 in 1940, to $24.00 in 1953. This has been one of our good sources of farm income, particularly in certain sections of the State as the rec- ords show this income as follows: Ma $ 7,951,000 OR eS $43,896,000 ee $52,559,000 BROILERS - The commercial broiler industry of Georgia, began about 1935 when our farmers received about $230,000 for one half million broilers. This industry has grown rapidly, but on a substantial basis to the point that it now ranks second t cotton in total cash income. The recor | speaks for itself: E Production income To Farmers TO4Q2 seers. 8,500,000 $ 1,495,000 OOO eee 62, 892, 00 $45,433,000 N003= 4 ee 21s 631 ,000 $93,836,000 EGGS .

Ad- ditional markets were established at other points and by 1940, seven markets were in operation which have increased - to 24 markets in 1953. The record of sales on these markets is phenomenal. These markets, particular- ly Atlanta, serves the nation as fruit and produce is received from about 44 states in the Union and several foreign coun- tries. The sales are as follows: LOA oe Save ales Soe $ 4,500,000 WOOU eee Sars Gu rene $50,556,699 TESTES Se ere anes Tre $83,848,521 CONSERVATION OF NATURAL * RESOURCES There is nothing more important than to conserve our natural resources which is building for the future. Many good years have been wasted in protecting our forests from the ravages of fire, and we have been very negligent in not replant- ing those acres that were once in vrigin forests. The same is true_of conserving our soil and it was not until a few. years ago that either the Government or the State took recognition of our vast depleted soils. SOIL CONSERVAVTION By an Act of the Legislature approved February 1949, the State Commissioner of Agriculture became an ex officio mem- ber of the State Soil Conservation Com- mittee to act in an advisory capacity. The State Committee, under the leadership of Jim L. Gillis, Jr., of Soperton, Georgia, was. reorganized in March 1949, and your Commissioner was invited to attend the first regular meeting. Unfortunately, I have been unable to attend all of the monthly meetings of the State Committee, but have had a repres- (Continued on Page 4 GEORGIA MARKET BULLETIN Address all items for publication and requests to be put on the mailing list and for change of address to STATE BU- REAU OF MARKETS, 222 STATE CAPITOL, Atlanta, ATIONAL ee aspera EiV Notices of farm produce and appurtenances admissible under postage regulations inserted one time on each request ae repeated only when request is accompanied by new copy of notice.
