AC K N 0 W LEDGMENT

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 Washington, D.C.

Exhaustive vegetable acreage, yield, production and value data and
other assistance was supplied by Mr. J. C. Townsend, Jr., Mr. J. B. Owens, 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, Statistician 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 inspec-
tions for the season. The daily reports from Road Guard Stations, operated
by the Citrus and Vegetable Division, showing passing of fruits and veg-
etables, were very helpful to shippers and growers throughout the season and
for record purposes in this report.

Mr- H. F. Yillson, Federal-State Citrus Market News Service, also
supplied useful data for use in this report. Mr. Willson is located in
Lakeland, Florida.

Mr. William 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.

Miss 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 Hildebrandt Building,
Jacksonville, Florida.

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 Lo Neill Rhodes contributed several
important pages in this report. Mr. Gifford N. Rhodes, Specialist, Livestock
Market News, Mr. L. H- Lewis, Specialist, Livestock and Field Crops, and Mr.
F. W. Risher, Specialist, Dairy and Poultry Products, of this Bureau, supplied
several pages of good livestock and poultry information.

DEDICATIONS

We dedicate this report to the memory of Mark
Twain, the famed humorist who once said, "There are
liars, damn liars, and then there are statisticians."

We can laugh over that remark as we don't belong
to any of that group.

We just fool around with figures without
formulas, without discourse on trends, and without
predictions as to the future. We are old enough to
know that predictions, which usually turn out wrong,
will remove any doubts that you are a liar, a fool,
or both.

We hope Mark Twain's descendents will not sue us
for associating him with this report. We do not.
It's not that good, nor that funny.

1951-52
ANNUAL FRUIT AND VEGETABLE REPORT

By Frank H. Scruggs, Market News Specialist

SUMMARY

While we had an outstanding year for volume of fruits and vegetables produced
and harvested we did not do cc well price or profit-wise. Citrus, vegetables and
miscellaneous fruits and melons each showed a substantial increase in volume. Citrus
showed a decrease in total value. Vegetables showed a good increase and miscellaneous
fruits a moderate increase. The production volume as well as the market value was
irregular with respect to individual commodities.
RECORD VOLUME OF FRUITS AND VEGETABLES 1951-52 SEASON
The total production in terms of carloads was 373,599 as compared to 331,989
in 1950-51, and with a gross Florida f.o.bc value of $367,136,000 compared to
$385,116,000 for the 1950-51 season.
The vegetable volume of 114,905 carloads with a gross f.o.b. value of
$158,754,000 was a bright feature of the 1951-52 season. Miscellaneous fruits, with a
volume of 26,105 carload production and a gross f.o.b. value of $18,259,000, was also
favorable. The citrus gross value which usually far exceeds the value of vegetables
and miscellaneous fruits dropped down to the point where there was not so much
difference. The gross value of citrus was $190,123,000 as compared to $177,013,000 for
vegetables and miscellaneous fruits.
It is conceded that citrus had a bad price year but vegetable volume has
doubled in ten years with value per carload almost doubling. Production costs were way
up.
RECORD VOLUME FOR 1951-52 SEASON CITRUS CROP
Florida produced 119,100,000 boxes of citrus. Six years ago there were
predictions of a 125,000,000 box crop within four or five years. This forecast might
have come true, or very nearly so, if there had been no hurricanes, freezes,. or droughts
to retard the volume. These weather damages occur too frequently to be considered very
abnormal. The 1951-52 se.--son's weather was generally favorable as far as it affected
volume. As of this date, October 22, 1952, there are private forecasts of more than
120,000,000 boxes for the 1952-53 season.
As late as the 1937-38 season we had less than 41,000,000 boxes and by the
1945-46 season the volume had gone up to 86,000,000 boxes, and to 92,900,000 boxes in
1948-49, and to 105,100,000 boxes in the 1950-51 season. For the last two seasons
combined we produced a total of 220,200,000 boxes. Now that is a lot of citrus to be
eaten, drunk, or otherwise absorbed, and it caused some market indigestion which may
only be temporary. There is a school of thought which says that there is no over-
production but under-consumption. That is the right way to think about it perhaps,
else there would be no large surpluses and no new measures taken to increase the con-
sumption. But while this is going on there may be some producers going broke with the
consumers getting the benefit of lower prices. Maybe this will create a later demand.
NET CITRUS PROFITS WERE DOWN FOR 1951-52 SEASON
It is carefully estimated that the net profit was only $31,290,000, or 27
per box after all production and marketing costs. This compares very unfavorably with
the $86,129,000 and 820 for the 1950-51 season. The average net for the 10-year period
1941-42 to 1951-52 season,was approximately $75,420,000 and 930 per box. Production
costs have gone up an average of 100, and picking, hauling, packing and selling 390
per box in ten years. The increased volume for tree and per acre has kept the average
cost of production per box from advancing more than 100. There is never agreement as
to cost of production figures. Everyone knows of course that the cost per acre is
much higher than ten years ago.
The gross f.o.b. return on oranges in 1951-52 was only $2.h6 per box, which
is much too low for comfort. Grapefruit was $2.36, and tangerines $4.30, The average
for all three was $2.53.

PROCESSINGG VOLUME LARGE FOR 1951-52 SEASON
Florida used 61,842,182 boxes of citrus for canned and concentrated citrus,
which was slightly more than the season before. The processors paid an average of
:.04 for oranges, 380 for grapefruit, and 500 per box for tangerines, delivered to
air doors.
After taking off the production costs, the picking, hauling and marketing
costs, the grower netted 120 for oranges, lost 400 on grapefruit, and lost 90 on
'gerines sold to processors.
It may be noted that 3,000,000 boxes of grapefruit and 400,000 boxes of
tangerines were abandoned because of poor markets.
DISPOSITION AND TRANSPORTATION IN 1951-52 SEASON
The total volume of 373,579 carloads was moved into trade channels in
se-. 'ral ways. Out-of-State truck shipments accounted for 106,272,straight freight for
94,247, mixed freight for 17,742, LCL express for 4,898, and boat from Florida ports
for 384 carloads. The volume processed was 129,234 carloads. The processed has moved,
or will move by rail, truck, boat and barge to the market places of the nation. Vie
have no transportation figures on this processed movement. Florida consumption
accounted for 20,822 carloads. Most of this moved from farm and grove in trucks to
large and small markets and stores of this State. We abandoned 8,686 carloads because
of poor market conditions at time crop had to be moved.
The leading commodities by rail were oranges, grapefruit, celery, watermelons,
tomatoes, potatoes, cabbage and corn.
The leaders moving by truck were oranges, grapefruit, tomatoes, watermelons,
potatoes, beans, cabbage, cucumbers, and celery.
The total volume of citrus moving by rail was less than the total volume of
vegetables and miscellaneous vegetables by rail. The truck volume for citrus was
considerably lower than that for vegetables and miscellaneous fruits.
It may be noted that citrus by rail was higher than the 1950-51 season as
were vegetables and miscellaneous fruits; that the volume of citrus by truck was more
than in 1950-51 as were vegetables and miscellaneous fruits. The total production of
citrus, vegetables and miscellaneous fruits was up considerably over the 1950-51 season.
FLORIDA LIVESTOCK
Anyone who is at all acquainted with agriculture or even who has read a few
newspapers or magazines in the last five years can't help but believe that Florida
should have a very bright beef cattle future. According to U.S. Bureau of Agricultural
Economic estimates, in 1952 Florida has more beef cattle than she had total cattle in
1946, just six years ago, which included 250,000 dairy cattle. In only ten years
Florida has increased her beef cattle numbers 70 per cent, from 735,000 in 1942 to
1,250,000 in 1952. The average value per head of all cattle in Florida in 1952 ($119)
is almost six times greater than in 1940 ($20.90).
Methods of production and marketing have been greatly improved. Since
Florida has relatively light soils and cannot as yet strongly compete with grain areas
for feeding steers, one of the soundest types of cattle marketing has been the selling
of calves. According to U.S. Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Agricultural
Economic data, calves now make up over half of the total cattle marketing whereas a
few years ago it was less than one-third.
Florida has been fortunate in recent years in having many out-of-State
interests come here to buy cattle. When the Mexican embargo became effective in
December 1946, many western stocker buyers were forced to go elsewhere for their cattle
needs and many came to Florida. Comparatively large shipments (practically all calves)
are still moving to the western United States from Florida. In addition, out-of-State
packers have become more active in the last five years. Total out-shipments of cattle
and calves moving for all purposes from Florida to other States have averaged close to
100,000 head for the past three years. Our total cattle marketing have been estimated
at between 400,000 and 500,000 head, so one can see that the out-of-State demand has
been no small item in Florida's relatively prosperous cattle industry.
Our cattle have indeed increased in numbers and potentially can increase much
more. Perhaps more important at this time, however, is improvement in quality. We may
as well face the fact that we have been relatively a low grade cattle producing area.
Current surveys of auction markets show that low grade or inferior types of cattle make

Page 3
up 75 to 80 percent of the total number sold. They are low grade not only because of
feedscarcity or poor management but also because of their breeding. One of the highest
needs in Florida is more good bulls, and one important thing to remember is that a bull
s not necessarily a good bull simply because he is purebred or registered. in-
-:rtunately, it is possible for inferior cattle to have registration papers.
Florida definitely needs more good hogs. Probably one of the biggest things
that could be done to improve quality in Florida hogs would be for packers to pay
premium prices for good hogs rather than'one price for pooled lots of hogs of varying
ogsrees of quality, as is now the common practice in many sections. The producer of
good hogs naturally feels he is being penalized when he sees his hogs sell along with,
and at the same price as, hogs that have literally been combed from the woods. Many
packers are beginning to pay considerably more for quality hogs than for regular run-
of-the-mill arrivals at their plants. These packers are certainly to be commended for
This practice.(Livestock comments were by Gifford Rhodes, Livestock Specialist in Market
Ne.':s.) REVIEW OF SUBJECTS COVERED IN THIS REPORT
It hardly seems worthwhile to discuss the figures in this report when they
speak much better for themselves. S me pages are important to one and other pages to
another.
Page 4 gives an overall picture of Florida agricultural production, including
fruits, vegetables, specialty crops, general field crops, livestock, poultry and dairy
products. To a total value of $592,904,000 for foregoing products, may be added
$273,721,000 for forestry products, $21,664,000 for fishery products, and $67,687,000
for mineral production, for a grand total of $955,976,000.
Page 5 covers the Florida production and value of fruits and vegetables for
19 years, and is one of the most used tables in the report.
Pages 6 and 7 give an analysis of the disposition of citrus, and the gross
and net return, as well as the costs of production and marketing.
Pages 8 and 9 were the two tables most difficult to prepare, and the writer
thinks they are very good. These two pages are a composite of data scattered through-
out the report. Page 8 covers disposition in carloads, and page 9 covers acreage,
production and value.
Weekly truck passing of vegetables and miscellaneous fruits, found on pages
22 and 23, are most useful in showing the date each commodity begins to move from the
State. It shows the weeks of peak movement as well as the decline. Truck shipments
usually precede and follow rail movement. A few commodities move exclusively or almost
exclusively in trucks.
Acreage by Counties and commodities for the last four seasons, found on pages
61 to 73, is very useful data.
Florida f.o.b. shipping point prices, found on pages 84 to 91, are liked by
all who are interested in prices and dates of movement of vegetables and miscellaneous
fruits at the various shipping points in Florida.
Naturally we have a lot of worthwhile statistics on citrus as it is still our
most important crop.
On page 34 we show the price paid by canners for oranges, grapefruit and
tangerines for the last ten seasons as well as the volume of grapefruit used for the
last six seasons. On page 40 we show the auction prices in ten large markets for the
last ten seasons. On page 31 we show the cost of citrus from tree to auction markets.
Page 39 shows the citrus acreage and production in Florida, California, Texas and
Arizona. Page 42 shows the rail distribution of citrus by States, and page 43 the
truck distribution of citrus by States,
V'e do not neglect vegetables and miscellaneous fruits as we have many pages
not already mentioned devoted to this subject.
Pages 95 to 100 show the truck distribution by States and larger markets.
For those interested in poultry, we show on page 74 the Jacksonville prices
prevailing for eggs, fryers and heavy hens for more than 15 years. VWe have similar
information for Tampa, Miami, Orlando and Tallahassee on pages 75-77. On page 102 we
have figures on the 1952 turkey situation. On page 106 we have some general facts on
poultry. On page 101 we show truck passing by stations and commodities.
Several pages are devoted to general field crops; and 15 pages, from 107 to
121, are devoted to livestock. Page 122 shows livestock by Counties.
Generally speaking, if it's about Florida and it is gettable, we've got it

38 Figures for Consumed in Florida are rough estimates based on population, prices, etc. Any person who does not approve this home
consumption estimate may make his own estimate, but this volume, which is probably underestimated, has to be counted. This
locally consumed volume of citrus includes packed, unpacked, inspected and uninspected. No thorough survey of local or Florida
consumption of fresh citrus has ever been made.

$Does not include economic abandonment of 3,000,000 boxes of grapefruit and 400,000 boxes of tangerines.

)TE The above figures on estimated costs from tree to auction for 1951-52 season were compiled by
the Florida Citrus Mutual Statistical Department from various reports from reliable packing houses,
growers and caretakers who represent a fair cross section of the industry. The above costs are
their ideas as to costs for the industry and do not necessarily represent the ideas of everyone in
the industry.

The State Marketing Bureau takes note of the reports which say that the quality of the citrus
fruit going to the auction markets is usually higher than the State average.

A BRIEF HISTORY OF FLORIDA CITRUS PROCESSING

Processing of citrus started in the 1920-21 season when 2,000 cases of 24 cans No. 2 size
grapefruit sections were canned. In the 1928-29 season the first grapefruit juice was canned, show-
ing a volume of 202,000 cases. In 1929-30 season the first orange juice was canned, the volume being
37,552 cases. Then during the 1935-36 season the first blended juice was produced, the volume being
84,958 cases. The same year the first citrus salad showed up in 65,194 cases. Later on during the
1937-38 season 33,430 cases of orange sections were canned. No new processed citrus showed until the
1940-41 season, when the first orange concentrate was produced, the volume amounting to 65,900
gallons of 650 brix. This unfrozen concentrate produced from 1940-41saeason thru the 1944-45 season
was principally for the armed forces and for distribution to the people of England and France.

The most important development in citrus history may have occurred during the 1945-46
season, when the first commercial production of frozen orange concentrate was begun. The volume was
only 225,684 gallons that year. The frozen volume for the 1951-52 season is approximately 15 times
what it was in 1945-46.

Frozen orange concentrate has been a decided success as far as the consumer is concerned.
Rapid progress has been made in frozen grapefruit and tangerine concentrate, and while they are not
nearly as popular as frozen orange concentrate they are preferred by many consumers.

The above report and that on page 46 covers the vegetable and miscellaneous fruit acreage
reported by the Truck Crop Reporters of the U.S. Bureau of Agricultural Economics, U.S. Department of
Agriculture in Orlando.

There are, however, a number of fruits and vegetables for which there is no official report
for acreage.

The Market News Specialist of the State Marketing Bureau undertakes to make some rough
estimates of these unreported commodities.

(See Pages 8 and 9 for further estimates.)

* Miscellaneous Vegetables included broccoli, okra, celery cabbage, onions, carrots, turnips, mustard,
beets, collards, parsley, spinach, watercress, English peas. The total production of these was
estimated at 5,171 carloads, with 1917 carloads going by truck, 274 by straight freight, and 1784
carloads estimated shipped in mixed cars. The remainder was processed, consumed locally, or went
out in LCL express shipments.

Having made these estimates, some without enough basic data on which to make a good estimate,
we hope no one disagrees with us about them unless they have data which could help us with estimates
next year. We feel quite sure there is some good data somewhere. These estimates are made in order
to complete the acreage, yield, production and value picture. We have always tried to do that even if
rough estimates are necessary.

1929 and 1930 seasons.
(2) These acreage figures do not include acres abandoned in various stages of growth for
reasons other than economic marketing, that is, poor markets. Does not include any
commodities not reaching harvest stage. Some additional acreage was abandoned for
marketing reasons.

BRIDGING THE GAP
by
Neill Rhodes
Comisisicner
Florida State Marketing Bureau

The season of Florida citrus and vegetable production falls with scattering exceptions in
the period from November 1st to the following July 1st. In one-third of the year, July thru October,
commercial "summertime" production of citrus and truck crops is relatively negligible. Bridging the
production gap between spring and fall is necessary for a year-round, full twelve months Florida
agriculture.

Poultry, dairy and livestock production is year-round in Florida. In many states where out-
door winter fruit and vegetable production is impossible, where instead summer fruits and vegetables
are grown for the market, the summer agricultural season is extended thru the winter to full-year
operations by livestock, dairy or poultry farming If those states have only half as long fruit and
vegetable growing season in summer as Florida does in its eight-month season, twice as long, and cold
winter thru which poultry, dairy and livestock production continues, it appears logical for Florida to
extend thru and expand those three industries ih the summer as well as winter, since florida has
the additional incentive of being a deficit-producing state of the food products from those agricul-
tural lines.

Florida feed production is insufficient to supply the requirements of present livestock,
dairy and poultry population, and any relatively great increase in herd and flock numbers would be
further inadequately supplied by home feed production to the extent these industries might be expanded
unless feed production is greatly accelerated. To produce the animals must be fed the feed must be
imported if not produced locally.

As long as pronounced deficit production prevails in Florida of poultry and eggs, livestock,
and dairy products, the markets within the state will probably average the best outlet. Unfortunately,
the promotion for a greatly increased agricultural volume is often engineered by those not engaged in
the actual production of commodities nor responsible for meeting the payrolls of, and high production
cost in connection therewith. So may we proceed cautiously, conservatively and fundamentally in
analyzing the means by which calendar year agricultural production may be attained in Florida. Very
few citrus or tomato producers would beat the drums for an increased production to say double the
present volume. Suppose the milk production of Florida might equal that., of Wisconsin, poultry and egg
production that of Iowa, beef cattle that of Texas, and assume that grainhay and pasture development
might also measure up to that of thoze states then our products would have to be distributed in out-
side markets devloped in widespread territory. With the increasing production of animals or their
products and the feed essential to maintain it, the quality and grade would also have to stay in line
with, or perhaps rank above the same products offered by other states Full summer, winter, year-round
Florida dairy, poultry, livestock farming on vastly increased scale involves also solution of the feed
problem, offering products of the highest quality and establishing contact with the trade in national
markets.

Increasing agricultural production in Florida should follow well surveyed lines for the
protection of both those who have been fearing for years and those who will in years ahead. A surplus
production piled on the ground for lack of market is a possible danger to avoid, a false goal to strive
for. Agricultural prosperity depends upon sufficient many think insufficient -- rather than excess-
ive production. Such statements as millions are hungry for Florida products are misleading, for
actually very few with the means to satisfy their appetite by the purchase of our food commodities go
without or languish in hunger for them. Millions are hungry part or all the time primarily because
without waough money they are without enough food. Such hunger is not a safe basis upon which to risk
expansion, which the producer cannot afford upon a reliefs charitable basis after all, the consumer
with the dollar bills is our market for food products.

It is highly improbable that net returns for volume production of comparable quality could
year after year far exceed those cf other states without agricultural production in Florida continuing
to expand toward safe limits at the least. Florida agricultural possibilities are neither isolated nor
quarantined. Florida agriculture is solid, substantial and profitable enough to move progressively and
conservatively forward without ballyhoo, sky-limit promotion, or stimulation beyond that justified by
the unvarnished facts. The many advantages of Florida agricultural production, so far outweighing the
admittedly few disadvantages is the bed rook for progressive endeavor in expanding this industry in our
state to year-round operation. There are some, though comparatively few disadvantages and problems in
Florida agricultural production. Let's not deny them. Florida producers realize that agricultural
pursuits in this or any other state are not endowed with hundred percent certainty, nor are they imbudd
with complacency under assumption they enjoy privileged monopoly, Agricultural processes are changing.
No farmer, no state, no nation has a permanent agriculture in an orbit restricted against production
and marketing procedural alteration.

The states to our north which cannot engage in the winter production of truck crops enter
their full planting and harvesting routine in the summer months, as the seasons shift from early, to
midseason, to late groups. Observing the factors and facilities of the seasonal production in those
groups of states, such as favorable growing weather, proximity to large terminal markets and dense
population areas, the ability to ship fresh packs in preferred packages in specified quantity short

tion for northern market distribution, that he could only with extreme difficulty offer any serious

production on largo, commercial scale in Florida does not appear to offer encouraging possibilities
"or eate.'ding the usual fsll-winter-spring plantings into year-round schedule.

Florida sgriculture has thus far been based principally upon food production. The feed
productionn business is an important segment of agricultural production in the United States, and fiber
production ir saother. Po one knows chemical utilization of agricultural raw materials may some
day substitute for exhausted mineral resources. Agricultural raw materials have the advantage over
non-agricultural raw materials of h:eing reproducible. Coal, oil, ore and the principal raw materials,
already "planted," are not reproduced by nature, or if so at too slow rate to o.naosm this generation,
whereas field crops c-n be grown an- harvested annually.

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture Yearbook 1950-51 the estimated world total
of plant species is more than 250,000, perhaps 300,000, that botanists have discovered, classified and
described. Apparently not more than 150 or 200 species are producing &srlot vclums. Fewer than a
dozen species account for most of this country's agricultural production, although some 15,000 species
of plants are native to the Unit:d States and Canada. Considering the large number and abundant
diversity of the plant kingdom, ths number now being cultivated it the United States is surprisingly
small, and in Floridt co=-ercial production from non-feed, non-food plants is largely in experimental
stages.

Floris "Gricultural production has been predicated largely upon usage for edible purposes,
2o.- s-omach capsoi-Aies limited to about three meals daily. Yet human tendency to consume non-food
prod-\.~is ispracic.lly unlimited. It has been @aid that agrictlturs as a whole is primarily biology,
ag5ic'iltural production the biological conversion of one kind of material into another. Producers have
diversified in vegetable production in the same section or others, some have taken on livestock or
other supplementa -y production, yet opportunities and possibilities greater than we now foresee in feed
and fiber and non-food production msy play an important role in broadening or supplementing the usual
lines or extending Florida agricultural production calendar-wise. With the natural abundance of sun-
shine, annual rainfall and climatic advantages, grassland agriculture has greater possibilities than
the extent of our taking advantage of them would indicate one among many.

The utilization of farm products by mechanized industries has expanded the market for -
agricultural commodities. Most of our agricultural products depend upon processing for consumer use.
Running from dark agee into the past century, the individual had to prepare agricultural products for
.'ood, clothing and shelter. Then the textile mill took over spinning and warring, the t anery leather

our summer under-production and possibly in preventing a fall-itt-:espring or'r-production anc souy.lus
wastage of some specialty crops.

In diversifying crops the advantages of a change-over or in supplementary projects must be
apparent, evident. To transfer from regular farming or extend agricultural operations into less promis-
ing fields would be foolish, and the situation should be well analyzed before final ciscicn is itdas.
For supplementary summer a~gr ulture, prolonging the season to t'elve-months basis, it would have to be
a paying proposition, even i. a sidsline endeavor sand not altogether as reuncerative as the -
principal farming done in the other two-thirds of the year. Naturally the question arises, ha-e any
types of agricultural production already been followed the year-round which on the basis of past
performance prove they have been sufficiently successful to warrant reasonable, solid expansion -
meat-and-bread income producing?

Dairying, poultry raising, livestock farming, and feed production to suestin whatever
increase may follow would fall in the favorable-outlook category, sinoe for all the products of none of
these lines does Florida produce enough for home-market demand. The result is sustaining by our
deficit production a continuously good market outlet for such products from other states. Every state
has full moral and constitutional rights to sell their products in, or buy their requirements from this
or any other state. Fundamentally-I believe it ethically unfair and statutorily unconstitutional to
construct trade barriers against the free flow of interstate commerce, to, from or among all states.
That Florida as one of the United States, in following the precedent already established by other
states which after supplying their home-market demand merchandise the surplus to other states including
Florida, would be acting in behalf of its own public interest and valfare and in conformity with both
the laws of man and nature, there can be no question.

Looking at agricultural production industrially, as well as for food and feed, what is the
potential market outlook TrJak one prospective outlet, the tremendous market for concentrated fuels.
Based upon gasoline alcohol blends containing from 5 to 10 percent of anhydrous alcohol, the Year-
book of Agriculture USDA back in 1940 stated the use of such mixtures would require roughly the annual
production of 1 to 2 billion gallons of alcohol. It was stated that on the basis of estimated motor-
fuel requirements in 1960, the use of a 10 percent alcohol mixture would require some 25,000,000
additional acres in cereal-grain production apart from any increase required for food.

Though the test of commerce and the effect of competition have not been determined from
results of a large commercial Florida production of fibrous, medicinal or other plants an agricul-
tural production of plants for industrial rather than for feed or food utilization there is good
reason to believe opportunities exist for supplementary production at least of those which cannot be
grown in more northerly regions and which by experimental, trial planting, harvesting and selling have
shown promise or may be reasonably expected to do so. From a quarter of a million plant species, some
