'SI \ It ' ' V* V - * 'Jfe* is' Outlook Dead Counties : Oorii is kitt -- in Illinois. But «ft many nimpis farms this year the king la:$Bead -- or mighty »pk. Many fcurrrters in the northern half of Mie state have prospect/? for th|||best corn they have nver produced. They got more than normal rainfall during the spring and summer. Top yields In this ftrea should be around 100 •: tjiiSiiels an acre. Thfr^^r^alS0 ; »ome good corn in twelve counties in ttie ! exlfettie , southern tip. ; .< In between these prntfn^reas , %e about thirty counties -- one j .fourth of ttte ..state--wtiere most j «ff the corn is a total | failure. This area ias been dry | : for two or three years. In genor- i Bl, greatest drouth damage has j occurred south of a IMS'Atoning I east and west across the state from about Paris thru Charleston,' TaylorviUe and Jacksonville. How does the drouth affect the over-all supply of corn? Here are the figures for prospective supplies and uses. CARRY-OVER. A normal carry- over is about 300 million bush- , els, or one-tenth of a crop. According to USDA forecasts, the carry-over at the end of this marketing year, Oct. 1, will be about 925 million bushels. This amount is about three times as much as normal and considerably above the previous, record of 769 million bushels last Oct. 1. ' " NEW CROP. Official reports from farmers on Aug. 1 pointed tq a crop of 2,824 million bushels for this year. This estimate * 15 percent smaller than the prospect on July 1. Crop prospects seem not to have changed much since Aug. 1, so let s use that estimate for production this year. TOTAL SUTYLY. Add the carry-over, 925 million, "new crop of 2,824 million. That would make 3.750 million bushels available for feed and other uses in the year beginning Oct. 1. HOW MITCH CORN WILL WE USE? Probably close to 3,000 million bushels, the. same as in the'past two years. We figure :t this way: In most years 88 to 90 percent of the .corn crop is fed to livestock. Hogs get the lion s share (or should we say the hog's share?) -- around 45 percent of all corn produced. Poultry comes in for 18 percent, dairy cattle for 16 percent, beef cattle for 9 percent, and horses and mules for about 1 percent. Farmers will have. around 10 percent more hogs to feed during next October-March, and maybe 2 to 4 percent more poultry, than they had this year, ptherwise no important changes in livestock numbers are in sight. The needs of the larger numbers of hogs and poultry for corn will likely be offset by reduced feeding in areas where Cook IJour droirtfc cut the crop. Alto ITethe it a&ekrs that total cor U feci to livestock in the next y _ wiljt be about the same as ui» yeas' ==, say 2,665 million bu^hels- FOOD AND INDUSTRIAL USES. All manufacturing^ for corn have totaled 240 to milJfoijL buslicls annuity cent years. No important is likely in these uses in 1954-5&- EXPORTS. Exports are relatively small, ranging from 75 to 14<J million bushels ann"ali/- Shipments will total around v million bushels during this marketing year and they may e a, little less the next y*ar because of greater competition front Argentina. SEED. Seed requirements are very small -- only about 10 -11}1" lion bushels. TOTAL D I S A P P E A R A N C E " . Total use • or disappearance of ^ corn in the year ahead seems likely to be about the same as it Mas been this year -- about 3,000 million bushels. Subtract this amount from the prospective supply of 3,750 million bushels, and we still have a carry-over of near 750 million bushels a year hence, or on Oct. 1, 1955.
