' ."v. ; • A BILLION BUSHELS A YEARI Huge as it is, our nation's wheat crop is a "drop in the bucket" compared to the total of all of our farm products. It takes a lot of combines to harvest so much wheat; it takes a lot more equipment, plus seed, stock, feed, fertilizer, land, and labor to make possible the nation's total farm output -- and those things take a lot of money. Where does so much money come from? America's farmers make widespread use of credit; and banks furnish more farm credit than any other institutional lenders.
