No 305695, Agricultural Economic Reports from United States Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service

Abstract: Interregional competition in growing and canning peaches is the focus of this second report of a two-part study. Regional production and trade patterns which minimize total costs of producing, processing, transporting, and distributing the national pack of canned peaches are determined under various assumed competitive situations. The United States is divided into eight consumption and four production regions to facilitate this analysis. Particular emphasis is given to the economic potential of the Southeast.
