THE LASTWORD

This report is not really important enough for a Foreword, so I an going to
call it the Lastword. It's the last page written. I am afraid that you readers will
suspect that I wrote the Introductory as well as the Lastword.
The Introductory, by Commissioner Rhodes, says such nice things about ne
that it creates the feeling that I am about to be retired. This is the 23rd Annual
Report.
Each year these reports get a little thicker as we add more information of
the same kind and new data. This leads me to think that I might be giving some of
the readers more stuff than they want or can digest at one sitting, and this leads up
to a story.
It seems that a young preacher, full of energy and long sermons, had gotten
his congregation to redecorate the church inside and out from top to bottom, and to
do justice to the occasion he prepared a special sermon for the next Sunday. Sunday
came, as it always does, 11 A.M. came, the preacher came, but the congregation did
not come, except for one old man who took a seat at the rear. The young preacher
waited and waited but no others came. Finally he walked back to the old man and
asked what he should do. "If I had spent all week preparing a sermon I would go on
and deliver it," was the reply. So the young man went back to the pulpit and preached
and preached for two hours. After he had finished he walked back to the old man with
the question, "Did you enjoy my sermon?" to which he got this answer, "Well, young
man, if I was a fanner and had a cow which could cat only one bale of hay I wouldn't
give her a iwagonload."
One of the regular readers of these annual reports asked that I tell a joke
or two to take some of the monotony out of these many pages of statistics which
follow. These jokes were invited, which reminds me of the Commissionur of Agricultur
in another state who was invited to a farm meeting of men and women. He acknowledged
his introduction by saying that he felt like the poor country boy who went into town
on circus day, hoping that he could in some way get into the big tent. He had no
money, so around the tent he walked to see if there was some way he could slip under
the tent without being seen. Seeing a jackass tied to a stake with his rear to the
tont the boy said to himself, "I'll get down on my knees behind this jackacs where I
can't be seen, raise the tent, and try to slip under." This he did, but at the same
time the jackass in a spirit of full cooperation let go with both heels and the boy
landed fifty feet inside the tent in the middle of the ring, in the middle of an act.
The circus people, very aggravated, grabbed and shook the boy, saying, "How come you
butt right into our act?" The poor country boy replied, "I did not butt into your
act -- I was assed in." P.S. They ushered him to a seat but he couldn't sit down.
Here's one for the youngest children. Yhly did the moron take a piece of
toast and a knife to the Florida-Georgia football game? V.cll, he heard there would
be a lot of traffic jam there.
Now that you are in a serious frame of mind I would like to point out that
we have some new types of information in the report.
Le have for the first time Florida f.o.b. shipping point prices showing the
prices of several of the leading Florida vegetables. See pages 88-90.
7To have for the first time some very good comments and statistics on
Florida cut flowers sold in Now York City. The cut flower industry in Florida is now
of major importance. See pages 77-78.
-:c have a page on turkey production with particular emphasis on the Belts-
ville turkeys which have become so popular in the last three years. Sce page 8$.
For the first time we have an article of Florida forest resources together
with some very good questions and answers. See pages 92-93.
i-o have the truck distribution by states and markets for vegetables and
miscellaneous fruits. These tabulations of our daily reports were made by the U.S.
Department of Agriculture in Washington and were assembled by the State Marketing
Bureau, and are found on pages 109-11$.
From here on you will need your bi-focals.

A C K N 0 1 L E D G M E N T

We wish to acknowledge the splendid cooperation we received from
both official and private sources during the preparation of this rather
comprehensive statistical report.

The rail freight, boat and express carlot shipment figures were
secured from the Fruit and Vegetable Branch of the Production and Marketing
Administration, U.S. Department of Agriculture in V1ashington, D.C.

Exhaustive vegetable acreage, yield, production and value data
and other assistance was supplied by Mr. J. C. Tovmsend, Jr., Mr. J. B.
Oviens, Mr. Paul Shuler, Mr. James A. Langford, Agricultural Statisticians,
and Mr. G. N. Rose, Truck Crop Statistician, U.S. Bureau of Agricultural
Economics, Federal Building, Orlando, Florida.

Mr. A. L. Scarborough, Sta.tistician of the Citrus and Vegetable
Division, Florida Department of Agriculture, Winter Haven, Florida,
supplied us with important record data and other information. Mr. Hugh S.
Flynt, Assistant Director of this division, supplied a detailed summary of
inspections for the season. The daily reports from Road Guard Stations,
operated by the Citrus and Vegetable Division, showing passing of fruits
and vegetables, were very helpful to shippers and growers throughout the
season and for record purposes in this report.

Mr. H. F. TVillson, Federal-State Citrus Market News Service, also
supplied useful data for use in this report. Mr. 'illson is located in
Lakcland, Florida.

Mr. 'illiam B. Conner, of the Florida Citrus Mutual, Lakeland,whole-
heartedly complied with our requests for much specific citrus information.
Much of this information would be difficult to obtain from other sources.

Several official and private agencies and individuals not already
mentioned supplied information directly or indirectly to us, for which we
extend our thanks.

The preparation of this report is tedious and requires long and
hard work, and appreciation by the writer is extended to our Bureau staff
for their efforts and accomplishments. Commissioner L. Neill Rhodes
contributed several important pages in this report, all of which was new
to this report. Mr. L. H. Lewis, Specialist, Livestock and Field Crops,
and Mr. Gifford N. Rhodes, Specialist, Livestock Market News, and Mr. F. V.
Risher, Specialist, Dairy and Poultry Products, of this Bureau, supplied
certain livestock and poultry information.

Mrs. Dena Snodgrass, Research Statistician, State Chamber of
Commerce, supplied certain miscellaneous statistics on Specialty Crops,
and the mining, lumber and seafood industries. Her office is in the Hilde-
brandt Building, Jacksonville, Florida.

A few other persons gave us items of information which are not
obtainable from official sources.

I TRODUCTORY

The regular Annual Fruit and Vcgetaole Report of the Florida St'-t ?..arket-

ing Bureou, covering the State's 1950-51 shipping season, provides an albun of

records of familiar products and prices. Statistically speaking, the report parades

the star performers citrus fruit, vegetables and others bearing placards of

individual volume and value. The statistical spotlight has also been turned upon

relatively minor crops, and other lines of Florida agriculture livestock, poultry

an, miscellaneous summations.

According to U.S. Department of Agriculture summary of fruit and vegetable

shipments by commodities and states during 1950, Florida shipped better than 12% of

the rail and boat total for the United States. Florida over-ranked all states in

carlot shipments of grap,-fruit, tangerines, mixed citrus, v:atermelons, green beans,

corn, cucumbers, eggplant, esca'role and peppers.

This report presents factual data, collected from the most authoritative

sources, verified by conference comparison vith the highc.:t official tabulations.

It is not glamorous, spectacular or exaggerated. It follows Bureau policy that: The

truth is good enough, and fair to one and all -:ho use our service.

Just as this annual report basically summarizes daily volume to present

the seasonal total, it adds another to the many annual fruit and vegetable reports

preceding it. Over the years these reports necessarily have increased in size, and

v:c hope have as measurably improved in usefulness.

The tedious preparation of thu 1950-$1 report is credited, and justly so,

to our Market ":ews Specialist, M!r. F. H. Scruggs. The laborer is ,v.orthy of his

hire. I believe you v.-ill agree vith me that 1Mr. Scruggs deserves our saying, "W ell

done,thy good and faithful servant." So gentlemen producers and shippers, and

members of the "agricultural fraternity", may I present to you the Annual Fruit and

Vegetable Roport of the Florida State M:.rkoting Bureau for the 190-5l1 Season by our

Liarket Nows Specialist, M.r. F. H. Scruggs:

I LIKE FLORIDA
(Ey Neill Rhodes, Com-missioner)
I like Florida because it has a pleasing mixture of climate enjoyed by few
other states and surpassed in none of there. I like Florida because there Is a little
bite in the air in the winter months yet the warmest summer months are tempered by
thunder showers and cool breezes. There are enough warm days in the winter, and
,.,ou.:h cool nights in t.he summer bo break any monotony of unchanging weather. I like
:lorich because of its fine native citizenship, along with resident natives of other
" states that couldn't help being born elsewhere, but rectified the matter by choosing,
Plo-idn whusn they reached maturity. Here in Florida will be found less snobbishness
in every-day social life, and more sympathy and help in trouble and distress than in
any of the t.ttes I have visited. I like Florida because it has a delightful combina-
tion of not too few large cities and not too many mid-point cities and smaller towns,
for in the very large cities it sometimes seems no one cares to know quite enough
abo)t our business, and in the very small towns it sometimes seems everybody knows
mor. about our business than they should. I like the congeniality existing between
"he ,urban and rural people? there is little if any holier-than-thou or richer-than-
he attitude in Florida. In about all of the leading agricultural sections you can
hardly tell where t'e city ends or the country begins by judging from the way the
residents of each mix andr mingle.
1 like "roughing it" and Florida hunting and fishing, since one or the
other is available the year around, fulfills every yearning I may have for the wilds.
I like variety in nature's enchantments. Florida has it. I like the wide level
expanse of land, and Florida has it. I like the sprawling hills, big bumpy ones,
that lazily emerge from sea-levjl but never grow un to mountain stature and Florida
has them. 1 like the rides, the cypress conds and swamps, and the night wild life
that explores them all the better with a' good pack of coon hounds verifying a hot
trail stitching ridge to svwamp, and Florida has them. I like the nightly soughing
of the Florida pines as I apply amateur astronomy to the star-lit heavens. I like a
lot of green on tre-s and shrubbery throughout the year, but the outline mottled a
little by massive tree toos left destitute of foliage by changing seasons, and nature
has so patterned Florida >forests to my idea of perfection.
I like to hear the whistle of bho bob-white the chatter of the squirrel,
the hoot of the o;l, the night call of the whiopoorwill the gobble of the wild
turkey, the. changing songs of the.' mocking-bird, the- bellow of the alligator the
quack of the wild duck, the bark of the fox, th-e chant of the frog, and all of
these and many more I nav.. h-ard around hunting camps in Florids.
I like Florida because of its comprehensive, continually improving educa-
tional system; and because of its fine, well attended churches of so many religious
faiths. I like the fraternal spirit and general atmosphere of tolerant brotherhood
prevalent in Florida. H..;re luxuriant natural splendor strikes chords within that
attune the human mechanism to close communion wath the Almighty. There is freedom
in Florida freedom of press, freedom of initiative and action, freedom of
industry, freedo;: of vote, freedom of assembly, freedom of space, freedom of thought,
freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from intolerance and freudon from
fear. I like Florida bec-auso this state has received such an abundance of natural
endowments and has protected them, has so many of the most enviable customs,
characteristics and habits of peoples from other states and lands, and so few of the
objectionable ways of life.
I like the azure sky overhanging Florida, the ocean fronts rith their
slanting beaches frin-ed by palm-spiked sand dunes. I like Florida lakes, -roud
jewels upon our land fingorin- into the sua, blue-mirrored reflections of tc azure
yonder, their changing splendor made more enthralling by the prismatic tints of sun-
riso and the red glow of lin.eri!g sunset. I also like to hear Old Man Weather lose
his temper once in a while, slap sheets of lightening out of threatening clouds,
snort around a bit in thunderous tones, roll a few angry waves out on the shore, and
dash a few rainstorms here and there before ho cools off, and often enough he
behavos that way in Florida.
I like the varied Florida agriculture, whore grain and hay cotton
tobacco, and sugar cano are common in many sections; where citrus and non-citrus
berries, grapes, pecans, in short, almost any tropical or semi-tropical nroducts
from corn to coconuts are produced within the state's boundaries. Florida's soils
grow thcse many products, and one might think the 1200 miles of loopy coast line had
permanonbly encircled field and truck crops from other states as they sought warmer
retreats upoon the Florida mainland. And one night imagine that upon the inbound
winds and tides from the tronics wore borne the many fruits and vegetables comm-on to
more southerly countries and islands that 'were buffed back from colder soils by the
ridges and hills of Central and North Florida. Florida provides one of the few
final common merging grounds for products native considerably to the north and far
to the south of us.
I LIKE FLORIDA!

ANNUAL FRUIT AVrL V1,TAPLE rPEP.T

By Frank H. Scruggs, Mfarket Newa Specialist

SULi5RY

almost everybody likes money, and if they are not gettLin it tncy li,.- to
Lr.'w v;h- is, and if there is any possibility of their tettin.- sor.e of it, oiiectly ur
indirectly. That is why the people like to hear about a successful tourist -i ason or
a successful agricultural year.
1930-I1 Season Not Bad
The 19,0-5) season was very good and the fruit ard vegetable; industry far.d
v .ry well indeed; livestock numbers and values per head were greater than ever; dairy
and poultry products held their own very nicely; while generall field cross. held th ir
own in volume, with prices considerably higher. Flowers, bulbs and nursery products
maintained their consistent growth, which has been marked in recent years. ;:any more
pecans brought more money per pound. Honey was just as sw':eet a. tver.
Cold Statictics
Wie are-not going into the tourist statistics as this is an a ricultural
summery, but the tourist stay was reported longer with mort money spent )cr -vrson pe
day .
The fruit and v31:ctabl2 voluic of 331,989 carloads produc-d, of rhich
211,276 carloads wvas citrus, w:as the :-r..o.tcst ev.r although ".;e have }.d Jocd volume
for uight jears. The volume for the l,'0-51 season was just double what it was prior
to 1)37-38 season. The gross i.o.b. Florid- valuc of .:.3',116,000 vwas .$21,000,OJ0
mo- e than for 19Mh-I6 season, which was a banner year. Thi iross valuu of .1160 per
carl-ad of all fruits a.id vegetables h!ts boca exceeded thrc tiincs, including the
19hh-45 and the 19h,-h6 seasons, when the conurmicrs of nations A'ith p. .-iuty of noney
in thc.ir pock ts bid higher for anything they v5antad. The 19A-'0 v-luc of -'125.. per
carload produced and us-d was excellent, also due principally to thf hi.rh.'r pn2IC s
paid by the cinners and concentrators for fresh citrus. This v.'s a sp. ci' 1 situation
which may or may iot recur.
Record 1950-51 Citrus Crop
The volw': of 10",10G,00 box s used v:as 12,20J,000 abov.: that of the-
hi.,h4st previous season in 1918-h9. The( forecast for the- 191.-52 season is tstimnted
at more than 112,000,030 ooxes. 1.e were right proud of 5',0j0, JO boxc.s just t.n
y-ars ago and 30,000,000 boxes just twenty years ao. 1`ow time and volum.,- do nov.l
The citrus business is big business and it is run to a large (xtent by big business
ren. An amateur -retting into this business crn get hurt just like he can got hurt in
any bi o and hlthly competitive business.
Record Vegetable and M.isccllaneous Fruit Crop
The vegetable industry is right big busic-i.s -lso -when it is r'olicd that
120,,13 carloads -.:r' produced and sold during the past -:-as-jo The volume -xcuod .d
th 19'L)-50 volun by 8,981 carloads. VWe thought uo werc doing well -,4th 6C.,36 car-
loads ton years ago. This industry does not get a lot of publicity but it moves
ahca:d just tihe sanc. The citrus and vegetabLe -rowers s' m to have a differ nt
philosophy of business life. Th.-. citrus .ro,-ver's money prospects arc l.ar.ly shaped
for bhem. The acreage and the trees are there and if ?.;other Nature gives thcm a
bountecous bloom which s-.ts roll he kncwvs he i.ll have -. lot of citrus to dispose of
and that all the other growers vaill too. So he starts worrying in .'ay or sooner and
v:orries all suinmer. In the fall Lh worr Loc lost hurricanes vill strike his croves.
Th e.-trus business is ro competitive and complicated that the growers and shippers
ar. implled to cooperate with each other and to regul.t- themselves by Stat. and
Fc-d rl laws. This is another worry the citrus rovers have.

Page 2
The grower of vegetables has many worries too but his next season's
prospects are not determined so far in advance. Most growers are through with one
season by June 1 and do not do much planting before September 15. The heavy plant-
ings are not made until November and for each month following through March. If he
does not make any money in the fall he expects to make some in the winter. If he
does not make any money in the winter due to freezes he is likely to increase the
size of his spring crop, hoping to make good for the year. Often enough he does.
Some growers will make money in any kind of a season but it is often not the same set
of growers. A frost can kill a hundred acres in one section and other acreage nearby
may be saved to bring higher prices. They gamble and play for high stakes but if
they lose their shirt there is always another season
Tomato Sales $47,523,000
Very few of the general public realize that the tomato business is so big
in Florida. Tomatoes rank right behind oranges and grapefruit. Tomatoes in 1950-51
season had a gross f.o.b. value larger than beans, celery and potatoes combined. The
tomato crop value was one-third of the value of all the 1950-51 vegetable crop and
was nearly 20 percent of the volume. Some idea of the money value of tomatoes may be
shown by comparisons. Oranges led with $156,526,000, followed by grapefruit
$57,849,000, tomatoes $47,523,000, beef cattle sales $38,317,000, dairy products
'39,219,000, hog sales $21,O40,000, tobacco $19,387,000, beans $17,282,000, celery
$16,021,000, and tangerines $14,884,000. The total agricultural production amounted
to $589,350,000.
SCorn On The Cob
This is an old crop which has taken on new life in Florida. We have been
producing green corn for out-of-state markets for at least 35 years but never made
much progress in volume until the now insecticides and treatments developed during
the war. The secret of marketing success was the ability to produce worm-free corn.
Our corn shipments for several seasons prior to the war averaged around 400 carloads.
Shipments in 1947-48 reached 1000 carloads and for 1950-51 we shipped 5,185 carloads.
The quality of our corn has been excellent and topping the market most of the time.
VTe have taken much of the green corn market away from Texas during late spring and
early summer. California offers only moderate competition. Le have the corn market
pretty much to ourselves from November to May 15. March, April, May and Juno are our
best shipping months for volume and quality. Some of our finest corn is shipped from
the cooler muck soils in June.
Celery Is Dependable
The celery crop is not too susceptible to cold damage and we ship celery in
volume from January 1 to June 15. XUe shipped 14,954 carloads by rail and truck last
season and the heaviest month was March with 3,338 carloads.
Celery is not widely produced in Florida as it is an expensive crop to grow,
The land on which it grows, particularly in Seminole County, is generally costly as
it requires artesian wells and underground tile for irrigation and drainage. Some of
the muck land acreage is not so expensive. The muck lands in the Lake Okeechobee
area of Palm Beach County in very recent years has led Seminole County in acreage by
a small margin.
Most people in Florida over a period of thirty years recognized Sanford as
the celery capital of Florida, and evon of the United States. It has lost some of
its prestige in recent years to the Salinas Section of California and the Lake
Okeechobee Section of Florida. My father-in-law, Henry H. Chappell of Sanford, was a
pioneer in the first production of commercial celery in Florida. Sanford celery
growers pioneered in the techniques of growing and marketing celery. Mr. F. F. Duttor
was the first to build a washing, packing and pre-cooling plant. Washing and pre-
cooling is now an almost national practice in all celery growing sections of the
nation. Sanford shippers a good many years ago moved into the New York celery sec-
tions during the summer months and changed that from a rough dirty deal to a washed
and pre-cooled deal.
Florida Goes To North Carolina
North Carolina mountains have always been a favorite vacation spot for a
large number of Florida people but for more than ten years we have had a lot of
Florida shippers and farmers growing and marketing North Carolina vegetables and some

Livestock On Th:, Upgride
Both the numribr of cattle and th- quality have boon goin" up for t,'-.nty
y :.rs. In 1531 we had 620,000 head of all classes of c-ttj.c, in 191, 902, 0, an-1
in 1.-1 '.e had 1,.03,000 cattle, and are likely to hav.e more thar, 2,0)0,-00 in 1 55
at th- pr-esent rate of ".ncroase. Th,.- quality of the herds ras increased by tho
nurib ar of pur:bred bulls brought into Florida or produced here. In 1931 vc hal 320
pur._bred bullr, .nd just ten years later 1,700, .Ahile nov .W hava 3,h0O. T'-i b. st
livestock authorities say v:c need 17,000 porebred bulls if vw arc. tc h'v th; best
herds obtainable. It is obvious that there is cornid :rablc room for inprovemtnt but
:s long as the ne..d for more purebred bulls is cgnerally recognized thu b4lls -"ill be
here in a. fuv; y-ars, both brought into as -::cll as produced in Florida. Our goal is
not to produce just as good beef c-ttle as any other st'-t but to do b tttcr th"n
oth-r bacf cat-le states.
Our rank anong the states is n1.'3 t.lfth for beef cattle and twenty-third
inl number of all cattle. California is the clov.nth ranking state ;with 1, l61,0'0
beef cattlu-, but Florida with 1,200,000, .11 likely take their place v.ithin two or
three years. Florida's cattle production has increased 6l4, and Califcrnia 1),;, and
all states 17,i from 1.9J to 19'0.
I'orc Hogs Are Needed
.c ._.-ed more good hogs. ':; need many thousand hogs. It is sai-! ohat less
than .O5; of Florida pork consumption is produced in Florida. it is also claimed that
the. production of hogs in Florida ct.uld b., mdeo just as profitable as cattle, yet the
production of hogs has not increased to much extent since 190. 1hd 6,00,O)0 head
in ILL and (31,00 heaa in 1951. The reason for l.ck of increase in FloriJa h-F
production is mostly the lack of cheaper feeds produced in Florida. Considerable re-
search has been made into this problem and b-ttcr rsallts v.ill be- obtained in the
future. ": :*.-ill soon have a population of 3,030),000 pecpl and v.e vill need
1,500,000 hots to fr-.d themi. In other .rds, a car in the garage, a locridi chicken
in the put, and half a Florida ho, in the freeze r.
A Letter
'Je have a little space on this stencil and we are going to put in a letter
just received which says something very nice aoout this report. The letter from.
Donald A.Dutts, Business Ma.nager of the Florida Fruit a.ni V.retable Ascociation,

IOTE: *Gross refers to returns FOB cars Florida shipping points, and net refers to returns to growers or fruit ownerss
before deducting for interest and grove taxes, but after deducting for cost of production and marketing.
1: Trucked out shipment figures were based on inspections certified for interstate movement.
2: Processing fruit represent average gross price at processor's door. Proccssinp, fruit includes that for canning
and concentrating, and the net price is the gross less produicticn, picking, hauling, and other marketing charges.
3: Figuires for Consumed in Florida -re rough estimates based on population, prices, etc. ,ny person who does not
approve this home consumption estimate may make his own estirm-te, but this volume, which is probably under-
ostimated, has to be counted. This locally consumed volur.e of citrus includes packed, unpacked, inspected and
uninspcctod. No thorough survey of local or Florida consiuiption of fresh citrus has ever been nade.

NOTES: *Included in Miscellaneous, if any, (a) An estimated 124,000 bushels of butterbeans included in Miscellaneous Vegs.
(Pages 8 and 3). There is considerable difficulty in working out a detailed disposition sheet for vegetables and
miscellaneous fruits as comprehensive data is not as available as for citrus. It was advisable to try.to use the U.S.
Department of Agriculture estimate of total production and work back from there. We have the records on the truck shipments
out of State, which figures are used. We have the records on straight freight and boat for most of the individual
commodities. We had only the totals for mixed freight end LCL express. The Florida consumption figures arc only estimates.
'e7 had to apportion the mixed freight and mixed express totals as best wc could to the various commodities with the handicap
of trying to make all of the separate totals check with the total official crop estimate. (E) Export from Jacksonville.

GROWTH IIN OUTPUT OF FROZEN CONCENTRATED CITRUS JUICES
(From The Fruit Situation, U.S.D.A., June, 1950) (See Page 39)
Started on a small scale in 1945-46, production of frozen concentrated
orange juice has since increased rapidly to bocmne a major outlet for oranges. The
early success achieved with oranges has led to the more recent manufacture of frozen
concentrated grapefruit juice, blended orange and grapefruit juice, and vcn lemon-
ade. among non-citrus juices, frozen concentrated grapo juice is also being manufac-
tured commercially. Experiments are being carried on with other fruit juices.
Commercial manufacture of frozen concentrated orange juicu b;gan in Florida
in Florida in 1945-46, when about 226,000 gallons of 4 to 1 concentrate were produced
(see accompanying table). Production in this State more than doubled in 1946-47.
The orange concentrate made in these two seasons was distributed largely thru the
hotel, restaurant, and soda fountain trades, where response v.as so favorable as to
point to its widespread use by household consumers.

snapdragons and daffodils. Among corsage itums gardenias weor received in to
greatest quantity, vith hybrid orchids next, followed by other varieties of orchids.
Of the -rea.'test seasonal iimportanc. were peonies, tulips, chrysanthemum pompons and
chrys arnthmuns.
In 1950 some 161,528,287 flowers supplied some 4,000 to 5,000 retail
florists in the m..tronoliten arua, representing receipts of surplus flow-rr from all
parts of the country. About 1-2/3 ; of the flowers reported were dumno-d. Gl1dioli,
dah.lias, pconi-s and tulips were in heavier receipt over 1919. Gladioli, although in
ncaviar r-c ipt, showed a smaller percentage of wvast'-gc, anrd a generally higher
average ,ric-.. Light-r offeriners of gardenias and orchids met better sale than in
1949 due to increased number of" weddings since the Korean bar.
Thire has rb-n considerable expansion in the last few, yJars in the produc-
tion of orchids in Florila. Authorities concede that Florida is now g-ncrally
regarded 'is the hibiscus center of the world. Two recent hibiscus shows in Florida
wvr. each attndd. b- 10,000 visitors. Blooms from hundreds of popular varia ties
and the n -wr introductions from sooedlings and cross-pollination wure displayed to
enthusiasts from many states.
The buds of beautiful flowers of much of Florida floriculture such .ns the
blossoms of th. camrillia, azalea, hibiscus and many others, growing profusely through-
out the St:te to the adnmration and pleasure of the Florida citizenry and visiting
population as ieJll, are borne upon the plants of luxuriant foliage sold ready-to-
blant in many sections of the Jnited States.
It is v:ith orid,' that -vo devoc snace in the 1950-51 Annual Fruit and
Vegetable Report in recognition of this up-and-groving industry which has attained
such striking proportions in such rclativwly short time.

arc the only ones of any importance. The 1950 season produced 4,891,000 pounds of
p.-cans and c,200 tons i-)' un,; nuts. The value of the harvested productich of fruit
crous during the 19.9-50 season amounted to 4202,087 000. Citrus makes up the
biggest nercentagc of this amount, being estimated a ",199,110,000. Tung nuts
accounted for 4517,000, pecans 51,350,000, avocados .,737,000, and peach&s and pears
valued at $.2?/,000.

Th-re -were 36b,850 acres of vegetables planted in Florida in 1959-50, about
39,000 acres were lost fr9m floods, freezes, etc., leaving 326,100 acros for harvest.
This acrengo produced l,h63, OO tons of vegetables valued at $110 riallio::. Approxi-
mately 171 ,00 t ns of vegetables were loft in the field unharvested due to economic
reasons. Lconomic abandonment during the 19l8-40 season was much less than last

vat uhd at i121.5 nallion. Vegetable yields ojeru generally lower this year, but the
larger :.'creage boosted production above the preceding year. In the UNITED STATES,
Flcrida is one of the, leading states in the production of fall, winter, and spring
vegetables. The state now ranks first in the production for fresh market of snyn
b.s, cucnumers egTnlnt .scnrol, and n pners. From an acreage standpoint, snap
bans is the rmost important vegetable groih in th9 state. In 1950, Florida farmers'
planted 99,500 acres of snap beans. Of this, 77,b00 acres wore harvested with a
production of 7,234,000 bushels which vare sold ior $17,116,000. vatcrmelons were
the next most important vegetable crop produced accounting for 70,UOO acres, pro-
ducing ever 1,H.9 million melons for a return of $5 870, 000. From the standpoint of

ov.r $31] millionn The 19h9-50 tomato crop w;as produced front 3 3800 acres yielding
8 05100GC bushels. Cl-ry ranked high from the standpoint of valuati on during the

Othmr important vegetables included 1o,300 acres of green Dpepers producing
3,810,000 bushels valued at >6,380,000. Irish potatoes wre'rplanted on 23,900 acres
from which a record 5 '524,000 bushels were harvested with a valuation of ?9,_215,000.
A somewhat hither cab-.ige acrcagc: which totaled 18,000 acres yielded 185 800 tons

LI VESTOCK A1D POULTRY
The im-ortance of livestock and. poultry as a part of the Florida agricul-
tural farm program continues to cxpand over many areas of the state. During 1950
thcrj were about 191,)o00,000 pounds of beef produccd, for a gross income of
$35,317,000. Of almost equal imnortanco vras Florida pork production of :125,338,000
pounds which was valued at $21,0110,000. From the standpoint of value, Florida's
important lairy industry almost equalled gross income realized from both beef and
pork produced. During 1950 the total griss income from all dairy products including
some butter amounted to $3o0 million. Income from Florida poultry was also at a
fairly high level, but did not reach the high level of production in 1949. Produc-
tion droopod to 11,793 000 pounds for a gross income of' ,1,032,000. In addition,
com.aorcihl broilers sold in 1950 brought poultry raisers a gross income of 8,12j,000
from the- sale of 9 036,000 broilers reor.senting 26,204 000 pounds. From a laying
Clock of 2,h31,000 hens and nullets, Florida produced 251,000,000 eggs, r-oresenting
a gross income of 9.07,000. During 190 the gross income received from livestock"
and poultry products amciunted to "l.8b.1 million.
