Excerpt from The Wheat Situation: November-December, 1943
The wheat carry-over in the United States on July 1, 19h}, was 618 million bushels and for July 1, 19h, is estimated at 300 million bushels. This is in sharp contrast to the no million for 1918 and 85 million for 1919. Large supplies and reduced exports have made available record quantities for feed and industrial alcohol production in this war, compared with small supplies, large exports, and curtailed use for all domestic purposes in the last war. A carry - over of 300 million bushels next July would provide for Operating stocks and reserves against possible small yields and. For some post-war relief. The disappearance of our 19m3-uh domestic supply is now estimated as follows, in million bushels: Food 535, feed 380, seed 80, industrial alcohol 110, and exports 50. Shipments into the United States for feed purposes, Julv 1 to date, total about N5 million bushels. Quantities imported should be added to the quantity of domestic wheat being fed, and will increase the total disappearance in the United States by a corresponding amount.
