Favorable Price Last Year Makes Shift To Cash Crop Report Eight Percent Tobacco Planting Increase in North Carolina this Year; Planned Corn Acreage Less. The total acreage to be plant ed to crops in North Carolina in 1937 shows very little change from that harvested in 1936, according to reports received from growers by the Federal and State Cooperative Crop Re porting Service as of March 1. There is a decided shift in intentions from certain food and feed crops to the major cash crops, however, if farm ers’ early intentions are car ried out. Obviously, the favor ble prices received for certain crops last year are showing ef fects on planting intentions for 1937. The first three months of 1937 were generally unfavor able for farm work in North Carolina, due to continued rain fall preventing field work. While the winter was the warm est on record—in contrast tc one of the coldest on record a year ago—the mild conditions had their unfavorable influen ces. Unusually early blooming of plants and the germination of seed encountered later dam ages from freezes. As of March 1, the conditions were appre ciably ahead of the usual sc far as plant development was concerned, but farm work was inecessarily delayed, although Hot quite as much as a month ago. Corn is the principal crop in the state, occupying about one third of the total crop land. Farmers report three percent less acreage intended this year, reflecting a shift in acreage to more attractive cash crops. For the United States as a whole, however, a two percent increase is shown. This is quite natur al in view of last year’s drought conditions in the Middle West. Next in importance is tobac co, which brought unusually favorable prices in the state last year. The flue-cured plant ing intentions are for an eigh' percent increase in this state, .as compared with a 10 percent increase for the Nation’s flue cured belt. The Old Belt shows a seven percent increase, and the eastern New Belt something over eight percent. It is under stood that considerable trou ble is being experienced in the plant beds. The first difficulty ■was the too rapid development •of plants in the bed; the sec ond was continued rains and cold snaps. Reported damages of blue mold are receiving con siderable notice along with in sects or larvae damages. Very probably all of these are exag gerated. The acreage of plant beds is probably the largest in the history of the state, par tially on the theory that too many plants are better than having a shortage. The weather factors after this date will mean far more than the pre ceding conditions. The acre age of tobacco for all states shows a 15 percent increase Trom last year’s harvest acre age.
