The Farm Outlook for 1931

Bureau of Agricultural Economics

No 314820, Miscellaneous Publications from United States Department of Agriculture, Economic Research Service

Abstract: Excerpts from the report: Farmers are faced with unusual difficulties this spring in planning their farm operations. The whole situation has been seriously clouded by conditions arising out of the world-wide business depression, the drought, and the drastic fall in commodity prices. There is a widespread tendency to seek new lines of production or to undertake new efforts which might seem to promise relief. The following statements, based upon the more complete outlook reports issued by this bureau, are intended to give a reasonably accurate idea of the probable conditions ahead. This brief survey indicates the limitations in certain lines of production and the apparent possibilities in other lines. It must be borne in mind that the general national outlook report and this summary must be interpreted according to local circumstances.
