Preliminary Estimates of Farm Products, By-Products and Wastes Available for Industrial Use by United States

Committee of the U.S Department of Agriculture on Industrial Utilization of Farm Products and By-Products

No 330661, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: The first consideration of the Committee was given to the "Order of Crops, Production, and Farm Value for 1933", as prepared for the Agricultural Year Book. It was immediately evident that certain crops, by reason of their relative unimportance, did not merit consideration at this time. Others, prominent in volume and value, were omitted an unlikely to provide by-products of commercial significance. Twenty-crops -- corn, cotton and cottonseed, wheat, potatoes, oats, tobacco, apples, barley, oranges, sweet potatoes, peanuts, peaches, rice, lemons, rye, grapefruit, soybeans, flaxseed, and sugarcane—were finally chosen as those which the Committee thought most probable to be included in any field of integrated research which might he embodied in its final report.
