Methods of Forecasting Production of Fruit

Journal of Agricultural Economics Research, 1950, vol. 02, issue 01, 10

Abstract: Techniques employed in making production forecasts of fruit crops are somewhat different from those used for field crops. Many questions have arisen as to why this is so. This study shows the reliability of past forecasts, indicates the relative accuracy of the procedure now used and of alternative methods, and suggests under what conditions different techniques should improve the accuracy of forecasts.
