Farm’ Production

By W. R. SIIAW. Deputy Ilnldcr o! Alrlculture Farm production in the history o! the Province. Acreage and livestock holdings were well maintained and generally favour. able conditions ior production fur. ther assisted ultimate objectives. In view o! the great need for iood materials, the general results must therefore be received with sincere thtnkfulness by farmers and citi- zens generally. Form producers are to be high. ly commended for the courage and initiative shown in carrying into effect. tinder serious labour hon. dlcaps. an expansive program of production. In this respect also. great praise is duc farm women and children. who assumed 1n many cases the heavy tasks of active farm operations, and ably contributed to the generally satis. factory returns.

son opened early and excellent weather conditions enabled farm. ers to make use o! limited help to the best advantage.

Seeding of all crops was termln. ated at an earlier than normal period. Germination was excel. lent and growth was vigorous. Early pastures were satisiactor. but a less than normal ralnial injured mid-season grazing and reduced dairy supplies. Pastures have im roved wonderfully, how.

ever, an at the time of writing are exceptionally favourable. Field Crops

Hay production has been one of the best in our history, and a large quantity will be available ior export. It is estimated that there is well ovcr 100.000 tons oi hay saved above the production level oi 1943. The crop was saved in splendid condition and the quality is excellent Large quantities oi clover and mixed hay are avail. able ior winter feeding.

Less wheat has been grown this year than for many years. Pro. duction per acre, however, has been satisfactory.

Acreage increases have been evident in mixed grains, while per acre yields from oats, barley and mixed grains are higher than for a number of years.

The total grain cro will be approximatcly seven mllion bus- hels. The qtiallty of the yield is excellent.

The acreage of potatoes slightly below that oi 1943. hut the yield will be substantially higher.

Certified Seed

Slightly over 38.000 acres of potatoes were planted. Of these. almost 14,500 acres were entered for certification: 924 acres passed for Foundation. 7.596 for Founda. tion "A" and 5365 ior Certified. This is a record of outstanding merit in the certification of seed It is expected that the average pro. duction UVéY-Bll field run will be in the vicinity oi 200 bushels to the acre. The quality oi the crop harvested is excellent.

Root crops. owing to the dry season. were retarded to some ex- tent in growth. The early turnips. however. will give a splendid yield and with iavourable growing wea. ther in October. the main crop will be about equal to the previ. ous year. "The corn crop has been excellent and will yield above av. erage.

The growing oi root and vege- tatbie seeds has been conducted with considerable success and quite substantial quantities oi turnip and mange] seed have been har. vested.

Acreage and Production Summary

The following is a summary oi the acreage rind production for the present year field run. Figures are subject to revision.

Dairy Production

The season started away with every prospect of an increased pro. duction oi dairy products. Condi-- tlons, however. reduced supplies and the position at September 30 with reference to creamery 1111i- ter shows a drop of 6 per cent be. lo\v 19-13 production. which W0! possibly a record production in the Province.

Cheese production has substan- tially lncrcused, showing about 50 per cent oi an increase over
