To fill domestic and foreign demand requirements in 1985, the U.S. is expected to produce 17% more wheat than it did in the 1970–72 period; also 30% more corn, 42% more sorghum, 20% more citrus, 32% more vegetables, 73% more soybeans, and 26% more cattle. These are a few of the baseline projections recently developed by ERS. The purpose of this report is to make available recent ERS projections of U.S. production and acreage needs with special emphasis on four Southern regions and the part they will play in producing the expected increase.
The Economic Projections Program Area was established under a recent reorganization in ERS, USDA, and given responsibility for coordinating all ERS projections of commodity production. The program area is now preparing projections through the year 2000 in a set of publications titled “Agriculture—The Third Century.”
Prepared for presentation at the Southern Agricultural Economics Association meetings, February 1975 at New Orleans.
