Overview

Excerpt from Crop Production: April 1, 1944 In northern areas, from the Rocky Mountains eastward, the delay of field work has yet become serious, and the widespread rains. Have greatly improved prospects for pastures and hay' creps. From southern Kansas and Colorado northward the rains an snows of March raised'prospects for nearly all crops and - eased somewhat the fears local shortages of water for irrigation. In portions of this area, especially in the western part of the Great Plains, reserves of subsoil moisture are only fair in some places deficient but in nearly all areas there is now enough surface mois to give early grass and grain crops a good start. In Utah and the Southwest the improvement has been substantial and prospects are now favorable. In Idaho, Washington, Oregon, and the gorthern two-thirds of California the winter drought has not been relieved and, as the season of dependable rainfall has now passed, prospects for creps and ranges are quite uneven and locally discouraging. Some large areas have had the driest season in many years. In California the re ported condition of the range is seriously low. Farther north, new'grass is late and prospects are questionable.
