DEFINITIONS

Rarely is it possible to indicate the total money value of any specific group of agricultural crops on a. comparable basis with another group of crops„ In other words, the level at which agricsultural commodities are traded varies with the particular items as well as the i»rtioular areas in which the trading takes place „ At the present there is no canmon den^asninator for the tabulation of all agricultural products „ For example p the total value of sweet potatoes is figured on an F.OoB„ basis ^ minus selling charges in Florida, Louisiana, and California, while in New Jersey and the Carclinas, they are calculated on a price paid at the faiTOo Ihis is due to the differing systems of trading in these States,

Since there is no feasible method for calculating agricultural piroduots to the same canmon denominators, various methods based on economic principal - of expressing the money value of production, sales and income - have been accepted by the U,S„ Department of Agricultureo Definitions generally used throughout this report follows

Value of production is computed by applying the season average price re- ceived by growers for quantities sold from a particular crop or during the market- ing season, depending on the cammodity„ to the total quantities produced^ Similarly, the value of sales is the tinit price applied to the quantity sold from a particular crop or during the marketing season, depending on the commodity

In other words, the -»silue of production is the money worth of the total crop grown for har-vest while the value of sales is the money received for the por-bion of the harvested crop aold on the market. For example, if a farmer feeds The corn he produces to his livestock it has a production value. However, since no money was received it has no sale value.

Gross Income g Realized gross farm incane includes (a) cash receipts from fann marketings; (b) cf value farm products ocnsvmed in farm households | (c) rental value of fann dwellings j and (d) government pajments to farmers. Total gross income is the realized gross Income or minus the value of the net change in farm inventories of crops and livestock.

Cash receipts from farm marketings consist of total money received from the sale of farm products „ together with the net receipts from Commodity Credit Corporation loans.

In other words, cash receipts differ fron gross income in that cash receipts include only the amount cf money received frcm the market transactions and the ASC loan programs while gross income is the overall value of agricultural products consumed and the marketed as well as the rental of the farm dwelling.

Farm Value (as used to oonpute total gross income above) as applied to crops in the various tables , is derived by multiplying production by the estimated season average price received by farmers for that portion of the commodity actually soldo Ihe term is used in the inventory tables on livestock and poultry to mean value of the number tf head en farms on January 1, It is derived by multiplying the n\znber of head by an estimated value per head as of that date. FoOoBc Packed Value - All prices used on truck crops are on an FoO.B. basis J which includes harvesting services such as picking;, grading;, packing and containers 9 less selling chargeSo In the ease of some commodities which are sold in units other than the one listed ^ these units are converted into the equivalent of the

FoOoBo Packed A^lue differs fron Faim Value in that the F„0„B, Value is the money value of the harvested crop while the Farm Value covers current book value of all farm crops and livestock ^ whether sold on the market or not.

Citrus price terminology? Average -prices as sold refer to the average prices actually received by gro^rers in the local market at the point where the fruit changes ownershipo In general^ fruit may be said FoOoBo yaoked by growers, at the incoming packing house door^ or en the trees. If sales are made through grower cooperatives j it is considered that the first sale is^made by the cooperativeo

However„ in order to keep all prices on a local market basis ^ sales by individual growers and grcwer-c&cperatives at terminal auctions and other distant points are priced on an equivalent F„OoBo shipping-point basis, F„0„B„ citrus prices refer to the prices received by grower-packer of grower cooperatives for the fruit sold packed o with the price including costs of grading p packing , con- tainers ^ and selling expenses. When adjus-taents are made in acttial average prices as sold in order that these prices will apply to sooae sales position other than the position at which the sale was made^ the results are referred to as "equiva- lent per unit returns,*

Equivalent per unit returns for citrus are calculated at two points of sales £

(1) Equivalent paoking-^hous® dsor returns refer to all fruit, regardless of the methods of sale., converted to a price which it would have returned had the entire crop been sold at the incoming packing house door,

(2) Equivalent on tree returns refer to all fruit similarly converted to the price it would Jteve returned had the entire crop been sold on the tree.

In arriving at equivalent per unit returns, costs are added to, or subtracted from prices of fruit as actually sold in order to obtain returns to growers at one cf the two specified points in the marketing process. For example, in order to obtain equivalent packing-house door returns for Florida oranges, (l) the average price for fruit actually sold FoOoB, packed is reduced by the charge for grading, packing, containers, etc,, (2) the average price for fruit actually sold on the tree is increased by the cost of picking and hauling to the packing house door, and (3) the season returns so derived are then combined with the re- ported price for the quantity, if any, actually sold in bulk at the incoming pack- ing-4iouse door by weighing the equivalent returns for each method of sales in proportion to the voltane actually sold at each point.

With the rapidly increasing complexity of agriculture and its interrelated industries and services, the need for accurate agricul- tural production and marketing data becomes more urgent. Such data are a necessity to the many different types of individuals and organizations who deal with agriculture, either directly or in- directly.

With the change in the market structure to fewer and fewer buyers who are becoming larger and larger, it is increasingly im- portant that producers and sellers avail themselves of the latest and most complete facts pertinent to their specific operations as well as those affecting the entire industry. Only in this way can they properly evaluate their competitive position and their opportu- nities in the market. Facts and figures on production and marketing are fundamental in planning planting programs and selling activities.

Because of the increasing complexity and increasing costs in- volved in producing and selling farm produce, farmers are depending more and more upon service firms and agricultural specialists. Managerial growers,- service firms, and buyers must have factual in- formation in order to constantly measure production and marketing potential. Costs and inventories from seed to table can be kept at workable levels only by use of facts.

This annual summary contains considerable basic statistical data on Florida agriculture. It is far from being complete. By and large it presents the end products or results. It does not attempt an analysis of conditions and changes with their causes and effects on these end products. More elaborate and detail presentation of facts as they pertain to our production and marketing programs will be our future goal.

SUMI^IARY REVIEW News Release

Florida agricultural production was valued at $896,003,000 for the I96O-6I season. This was a very noteworthy increase of 14 percent over the $786,467,000 of the 1959-60 season. The previous high was in I958-59, when a value of $833 million was recorded.

Citrus is estimated at $355 niillion for I96O-6I, this being the highest sum ever recorded for the crop. Truck Crops totaled $172 million, which is only two percent greater than the previous year; however, produc- tion showed an 11 percent increase. Horticultural Specialties grossed $38 million, indicating a continuing steady growth. Other Fruits and Edible Nuts grossed $3.7 million, which reflects a come back of avocado and mango trees following the loss incurred by Hurricane Donna. A favorable growing season for pecans increased their production and value total. Field Crops account for $85 million. Slight gains are expected in hay, peanuts, sugar cane for sugar, and tobacco. Livestock is up to $78 million compared to the $70 million of a year ago. Dairy Products are expected to be slightly lower at $88 million, from an unchanged production. Poultry and Egg Products are valued at $50 million, with all the gain occurring from egt;s. Forest Products remain steady at $14 million. Honey and Beeswax are up slightly, (Citrus and Truck Crop values cover the production season of August through July, while values of other commodities are tabulated for the calendar year.)

CITRUS

Early trade production estimates for the I96O-6I citrus crop were high; however, Hurricane Donna's path through the interior citrus belt caused a probable loss of 25-35 percent to the grapefruit crop and a 5-10 percent loss to the orange and tangerine crops. There was only a light loss of fruit in the Indian River area, which was on the fringe of the storm.

Pricewise, it was a good season for citrus as a whole. The production value of citrus in the I96O-6I season was $354,789,000, the highest value yet recorded -- from a 124,240,000-box crop compared to $275,010,000 from a 126,020,000-box crop in 1959-60. Orange volume accounted for 69.8 percent of the total citrus crop in I96O-6I, grapefruit 25.4 percent, tangerines 3o9 percent, "Hurcotts .2 percent, tangelos .4 percent, and limes .3 percent. This past year, processed utilization accounted for 70 percent of the crop, the remaining 30 percent moving through fresh channels.

For the past six years there have been more than 80,000,000 boxes of citrus annually going to canning plants in the State.

TRUCK CROPS

Vegetables, watermelons, and strawberries showed a production value in the I96O-6I season of $171,643,000 from 358,200 harvested acres, as compared to $169,476,000 from 376,550 harvested acres in the 1959-60 season. Page 1-B

Although acreage was 5 percent lower, production was up 11 percent this past season from that of the previous one.

Adverse weather conditions affecting truck crops was confined mostly to periods in the early fall, late winter, and early spring. Weather condi- tions during the remainder of the commercial production season were gen- erally favorable. On September 10-11, Donna caused heavy loss to vegetables in Dade County, Ft. Myers-Immokalee, Manatee, Vfeuchula and Plant City. There was a light amount of damage to various vegetables in other areas, this being due mostly to heavy rains. On March 9, high winds of 40-45 MPH caused some widespread damage to melons, squash, tomatoes, cucumbers and other crops. On March 11, frost and freezing temperatures caused damage to truck crops in most areas of north and central Florida and a 50-60 percent loss to beans and sweet corn in the Everglades. April was reportedly a cool month.

The winter was ideal for the State's tourist business — cold in the North and warm in Florida. But it did play havoc with the ir,ovement of pro- duce to the market, especially during January and early February. At that time, because of the heavy snowfall accompanied by ice, truck travel was slow and hazardous and at times it was even difficult for trains to main- tain schedules.

A market report from New York City on February 8 typifies the condi- tions that prevailed in the North; "Temperatures moderated somewhat Sunday after 1? consecutive days, for which there were no temperatures above freez- ing recorded, making the longest and coldest spell in the city's history. Rail yards were blocked by snow and unloading of the cars was difficult. This condition still exists and improvement is very slow."

It is noted that specialists working in the field of truck crop market- ing say that factors which influence profits of Florida vegetable producers are both many and varied. In the physical as well as the economical sense, these factors are nation-wide in scope. Weather, which affects vegetable supplies in California, Texas, Mexico, and the West Indies, can in many in- stances affect returns to Florida producers as much as weather conditions in Florida. The same can be said of other physical factors such as disease or insect infestations. From the standpoint of economics of a State which produces for the national market as does Florida, the quantity of vegetables consumed and the prices received by the producers are greatly influenced by the economic conditions which exist throughout the nation.

TRANSPORTATION

During the I96O-6I season we shipped 178,864 carloads of fruits and vegetables from Florida. Of these, there were 50,465 carloads shipped by rail freight, 2,012 carloads by rail-truck (piggy back), 4,759 carloads by rail express, 372 carloads by boat, 121,256 carloads by truck. Transporta- tion by truck accounted for 68 percent of the carload shipments, while freight represented 28 percent of the volume, with 4 percent of the produce being shipped by other means. Eight years ago, in 1953-5^. transportation by truck accounted for 5^ percent of the carload shipments, while freight represented 43 percent of the volume, with 3 percent of the produce being shipped by other means. Rail- truck was nonexistent then. | )

Page 16 WEATHER Character of the 1960-61 Season's Weather in Florida Generally the season's weather was somewhat more favorable than that of the past few win- ters. Wann weather prevailed all of November while December and January and the first half of February were rather cold. Some crop damage ocoiirred in most areas but was generally light. However, the prolonged cold retarded growth and kept pastures in poor condition. The latter part of February and March was warm and only marred by the freezing temperat\ires and frost on March 11. The agricultural industry, particularly the citrus grower, will long remember Hurricane Donna which crossed the state from Naples to Daytona Beach on September 10-11. This storm caused considerable loss to citrus... fruit blown off trees with the greatest loss confined to Leo County northward across southern Polk County and lesser amounts in the northern citrus belt. Donna's heavy rains, along with an extremely high water table resulted in flooding in much of south and central Florida and rainfall following Donna continued into September and October kept fields rather wet until the latter part of October.

Page 17 FREEZE HAZARDS IN FLORIDA'S RIDGE DISTRICT 25-YEim STJMIvJARY OF CRITICAL TEMPERATDrES — 1^35-60

DESCRIPTION OF THE RIDGE DISTRICT . The Ridge District of Florida comprises the upland areas of Folk and Highlands Coimties. Since most of Florida is relatively flat and of low elevationp areas such as the Ridge are outstanding. They rise up to 300 feet above sea level and up to 100—150 feet over the flat lands. These highlands lie in the form of ridges &nd. hills interspersed by valleys, depressions and frostpookets. This district is almost in the exact geographical center of Peninsular Florida.

Due to its elevation the Ridge is generally well drained and therefore suited for citrus. Similarly it has, for the most part^ excellent cold air drainage, thus enhancing its value as a citrus area. In additions the hundreds of lakes scattered through the area have a moderating influence on temperatures on lands adjacent to them. A great many of the old well-producing groves in the Ridge are planted between and around lakes.

This area includes a large portion of the citrus acreage in Florida- In Polk County the greater part of these plantings are on the long ridge which extends from the northern boundary of the district to south of Frostproof; on the broken ridge that reaches from north of Polk City to south of Alturas, and on the Lakeland-Highlands region.

The Highlands Coimty citrus producing area lies in the western portion of the county with principal plantings located in a belt from north of Avon Park through Sebring to south of Hicoria. This section is also high and rolling with numerous depressions and frost- pockets .

and named rank highest production. There Oranges s) grapefniit tangerines in the order in are also some plauitings of lime and lemons. Other tree crops of minor importance in- clude avocados, lychees and mangos, and these are planted in the more favored locations temperature-wis e

Truck acreage in the district is small. Conmercial plantings, however, are grown on the heavier low land soils in the vicinity of Aubtirndale, Polk City, Frostproof and Lake Placid. The principal crop in Polk County is strawberries. Ornamentals are produced near most of the towns to serve local landscaping trade. The acreage planted to water- melons in Polk County is considerable. In addition, minor acreages of these and other crops are scattered here and there over the district.

Annual rainfall in the Ridge is ample for the support of tree crops in spite of the well drained soil situation. It is not, however, evenly spaced in each month. Frequency and amounts of rainfall are highly concentrated in the months June through Septanber. During these four months nearly 60^ of the annual precipitation occurs- This lopsidedness dur- ing the warm growing months is favorable, and irrigation is rarely needed at this time.

From October through January, lower temperatiires retard growth and trees do not require nearly as much waterj hence, irrigation is seldom practiced during this period. But in the February-May bracket, temperatures are rising, vegetation is putting on the spring flush and trees are setting new fruitp thus increasing water requirements. Near normal rainfall, if fairly evenly spaced is generally sufficient. However, if amounts are deficient or periods of precipitation infrequent, irrigation is generally practiced For all practical purposes this is the most critical period of the year moisture-wise. At times drought can be vary serious, causing leaf wilt and droppage, and drying and shedding of fruit.

Never is there an excess of nDisture in this district as far as the whole a rea is con- cerned But in some of the lower areas trees have been known to suffer and sometimes Page 18 die from water damage to roots. This results from plantings made d\iring a dry or normal rainfall cycle, and requires a prolonged period of excessive amounts. In rare instances a "saucer" on a hilltopj whose clay subsoil also forms a depression, may become saturated and thus cause water damage to trees.

Although the temperatures of the Ridge District are considered mildj, there are depressions, frostpockets and "cold* areas in which citrus will not thrive without artificial protec- tion from frost and freezing temperatures* In fact, there are some areas that have been set to grove and frozen out several times in the twentieth century., To one planning to set out a grove on what appears to be virgin territory it would pay to inquire into the history of the area from any source available, particularly records of the Federal-State Frost Warning Service. In 25 years of data collected by this Service, we find that a typical frostpocket experiences 28o and lower every season; 26° and lower 8A% of the seasons; and 24o and lower 64?^ of the seasons.

Most groves now located in frostpockets and other places of similar temperature character- istics were planted near the outset of a warm cyde, viz; IQIS, 1928 or 1948. Such groves are invariably protected or are low in production due to sub—freezing temperatures ex- perienced through the years.

Temperature inversions are frequent at night in the Ridge, making higher ground warmer than low ground. Under clear skies as the wind decreases and a calm sets in^, frost- pockets may be as much as 15 to 20° colder than hilltopso To obtain a comprehensive record of temperature problems in this district, thermometer stations are located on the tops of ridges, on slopes, on low gro\ind, in frostpockets, away from influence of bodies of water as well as near them.,

TEMPERATURE INVERSION. Temperature inversion as it concerns frost protection is a phenomenon of the atmosphere near the ground» occurring mostly at night and inmediately after dawn. It is define^ as increase in temperature with height above a given s\irface, usually the ground suirface in flat country or the lowest point in a depression in rolling country.

When the Sim goes down, the earth's surface coolso This drop in temperature is enhanced by the lack of clouds in the sky and decreasing wind speed. The earth in t\jm cools the adjacent air thus increasing its density. Under calm conditions on flat areas, air next to the ground cools much more rapidly than the higher layers making the inversion more intense.

In rolling terrain the cooled air on hilltops and slopes flows into the depressions by virtue of its greater density. Therefore in depressions, pools of cold air collect and become considerably colder as the night progresses. Thus is the inversion intensified. The less the wind speed and sky cover the greater the inversion intensity. If the wind increases this produces a mixing of cold air near the groxind and warmer air aloft. Sufficient mixing will cause the inversion to "wash out" completely. On nights with frequent periods of calm and little wind movement inversion is large (10° or more). Nights of continuous light winds with brief periods of calm are usually nights of moderate inversion (4° - 9°). Nights of continuous wind movement are characterized by small temperature inversion (3° or less). '

Throughout the history of frost protection, growers have made use of temperature in- version, when available. Small fires in a plot warm air near the grotind, cavising it to rise until it meets air of the same temperature. If an inversion exists the warmed air will flatten outo Then only the air between the ^°oimd and the flattened surface need be heated.

Recently large propellers placed on towers in fields have been inistalled to blow warm air from above and to force mixing. For this type of protection, an inversion is a necessity, as it is the only source from which heat may be obtained. GLuite a number of growers have purchased and installed these wind machines to protect plants- The following table shows intensity of inversions the corresponding classification, and the effectiveness in frost protection from the best knowledge now available.

NOTE ; Truck rates fluctuate according to the supply and demand of trucks. Rates are generally stable at the lowest per box rate shownj however, dtiring periods of truck shortages, rates will tend slightly hi^er, hence a rate range is shown to cover the variajice during truck shortages. Trucks were fairly plentiful throughout the season with the exception of short periods around

Thanksgiving and Christmas and laeginning with volume movement of fresh vegetables ^ watermelons, et cetera^ in the Spring, when an acute shortage developed. During periods when the truck supply exceeded the demand, some truckers included ice at the prevailing rates, which resulted in slightly lower rates, in some instances, than those shown. MDst trucks are equipped with ice bunkers with capacity of 1800 to 2400 pounds j however, there is an increasing number being placed in service equipped with mechanical refrigeration units. Mechanical refrigeration runs from $25.00 to $50.00 per load, and ice refrigeration runs from 5 to 10 cents per 1-3/5 bushel box, depending on the weather and destination. Sources Courtesy T. E.

The 1960 flue-cured crop brought the highest general average price in recorded his- toryo Around 60 percent of the grades averaged above 1959-crop levels. The quality of the of- ferings showed considerable improvement over that of the previous year's cropo

S ales and averages . The United States Department of Agriculture reports that the 1960 crop sold at an average price of 60,5 cents per pound™ 2„1 cents more than the previous year's quotation (58o4 cents )f, and the fourth successive crop-average to reach a new all-time higha Volume of producers" sales was reported at 1^247,2 million pounds — 170.3 million njore than the 1959-crop marketings (li,076,9 millionjp and Ihe largest poundage sold since 1956,

Deliveries of the 1960 crop to the Flue-cured Tobacco Cooperative Stabilization Cor-- poraiionc, under the Government price support program^ totaled 51,8 million pounds,, or 4,2 per- of cent net sales » This was the smallest volume of deliveries under loan since the beginning -of the program in 1946, (Receipts of the 1959 crop were 55c 3 million, or 5.1 percent).

Grade averages . Average prices for about 80 percent of the grades for all types com- bined were either above or the same -, as those reported for the previous year's crop. Most gains were from 1 to 4 cents per pound. Losses amounted chiefly to only 1 cent per poimdj and were reported mainly in better qualities.

The average loan level on the 1960 crop was 55«5 cents per pound— the same as for the 1959 crop. Rates by grades also remained unchanged,, ranging from 20 to 82 cents per pound for tobacco marketed "tied" (types ) 11-13 ,j and 5 cents per pound less for the comparable grades marketed "untied" (iype 14), Most grades averaged well above their respective loan rates. They ranged up to 23 cents per pound higher, but most were from 4 to 16 cents above their supports.

Composition of of ferings. As compared with the year before, marketings of the 1960 crop contained smaller percentages of low quality tobacco and nondescript. There was a general improvement from the color standpoint, A considerable percentage increase occurred in cutters^ followed by leaf. Smoking leafp lugS;, and primings remained in about the same proportion as in the 1959 crop.

New price support legislation. Before 1960j, price support legislation provided that loan levels be the higher of (i; minimum levels announced before planting time or (2) 90 per- cent of parity as of the beginning of the marketing year (July 1 for flue-cured). New legis- lation passed in February 1960 provided that for the 1960 crops the levels be the same as for the 1959 crop„ and that for the 1961 and following crops, price supports be determined by a method entirely different from that used in 1959 and earlier. In this new method the 1959 sup- port level will be used as the base figure and this will be adjusted each year in accordance with the change between the 1959 parity index (the index of prices paid by farmers, including interests taxes, and wage rates) and the average of the parity indexes for the 3 years just preceding the year for which the support level is being determined.

Marketing quotas . The national marketing quota for the 1960 crop resulted in acreage allotments totalling 713,313 acres (l959 allotment was 712,558 acres). In a referendum held in December 1958, quotas were approved by growers for the 1959, 1960j and 1961 crops. Acreage available for allotments for the 1961 crop is 7l5p817 acres,

Page 181 FLORIDA CATTLE MARKETING AND MARKET NEWS By GIFFORD N<. RHODES, Specialist Livestock Market News Florida State Marketing Bureau

Cattle marketing as well as production has progressed in Florida in the past decade. Before auction markets became well established prior to the Second World War, producers' market out- lets were limited; cattle were sold either to local slaughterers, to other farmers, to shippers or dealers, or were butchered at home. Actually, many cattle still move through these channels, but auctions have become an important addition; in fact, prices received at auctions more or less establish the market value of lower grade cattle in the State, Prices of higher grades conform to prices received for the same type animals at the large terminal markets in the Midwe st At present, the two principal outlets commercial cattlemen in Florida have are auctions and direct sales to packers or stocker buyers, including out-of-state shippers. There are about 30 livestock auctions but no large "terminal" markets in the State, and until 1960 no auctions were regulated by the Federal Packers and Stockyard Act. "Posting" of auctions by the P & S began in 1960 in Florida, Roughly estimated, about half of the cattle sold in Florida are sold through auctions and about half are sold privately or "direct" to packers, dealers, and other farmers. Auctions depend for the largest share of their volimie on small farmers with only a few head of cattle to sell, on low grade cattle from large ranches and culls from dairies, A large proportion of auctioned cattle are thin "two-way" cattle, or those which may be desired by stocker buyers as well as by slaughter buyers. Direct sales tend more to include higher quality grain-fed steers and large groups of other classes, especially calves. The Federal— State Livestock Market News Service in Florida from its beginning in 1947 to 1955 was based upon supply and price information recorded each week, Monday through Thursday, on representative livestock auctions scattered over the State, By 1955 the 14 reported Markets were handling about 75 percent of all cattle sold through auctions, and therefore official market reports based on these 14 were considered adequate as far as auction prices were con- cerned. However, there has been a tremendous increase in the state in feeding cattle to U.S Good, Choice, t^Mi even Prime grades. Relatively few of these high grade cattle are sold through auctions; fiost go direct to slaughtering plants; therefore official Market reports were becoming increasingly inadequate by not including information on these grades. Late in 1955, the Market News Service began collecting direct sale price information on high grade slau^'hter cattle from packers for inclusion in regular weekly market reports, Start- ing the first of 1958, direct sales of feeder and stocker cattle as well as direct sales of

slaughter cattle, were included in official reports to round out market conditions reported . each week on 17 auctions, Federal-Stpte Tiive stock Msrket News is available in Florida newsuaper and radio reports, and in mimeographed reports sent free to anyone requesting them from the UoS.D.A., Agricul- tural Marketing Service, Livestock Branch 218 Post Office Building, Thomasville, Georgia, Beginning in early 1960, reports on individual auction sales are supplied regularly to local Newspapers and Radio—TV stations. In addition to market reports, publishing related market statistical information aids quality improvement, and influences Florida cattlemen to distribute marketings more evenly throughout the year. By doing this, market gluts in late summer and fall can be avoided, and dependable or more equal month-to-month prices will result. Also, if a more constant supply of market cattle were assured, additional buying power from out of the State may be induced to set up slaughtering plants in the State rather than seasonally buying for ship- ping out-of-state,

FLORIDA HOG MiARKETING Of all problems in today's livestock marketing, the ones probably needing most attention Concern hogs—premium prices for lean type hogs seem the best if not the only way to get pro- ducers to grow lean hogs in response to pork-eaters' desires for less fat. Lard has switched from the most desired and highest priced swine product in the early 1900's to the least desired and lowest priced today, yet the type of hog being produced today has about the same proportion of fat as those of 50 years ago. Another serious problem is the extreme seasonality or unevenness in hog prices, due mostly to seasonality in numbers marketed. Each year about 55^ of the total hogs sold are sold in 5 months, usually September through January, causing market gluts and depressed prices during this period.

Page 197 INCllEASING PER IICAD VALUES OF FLORIDA CATTLE

Increasing costs of producing, processing and marlceting beef are constantly demanding more efficiency in production of beef cattle.

Too often in the past most attention has been given to cattle numbers, too little to quality and beef production per head. Cattlemen in the Southeast and particularly Florida should be concentrating more and more on per head production of beef - more and better meat per animal.

Cattle values can be raised in two ways - by intensifying quality through breeding, and by elevating grade by more or better feeding. Whether either is profitable depends on many things, the most important being the cattleman's judgement in manipulating costs, and in breeding, management, and marketing decisions.

Demand for cattle varies in intensity from year to year, and since it develops from differ- ent sources, it also varies considerably for different types, classes, grades and weights of animal Sc It is difficiilt for the average breeder to predict what is ^oing to be in best demand several years hence—the earliest he can have any particular type animal ready for market, V;ost cattlemen produce what they feel fits their individual operations best, and hope for good prices when they decide to, or have to sell.

Excluding weather, there are probably more risks involved in producing livestock than in any other corrmodityo Yet of all producers of agricultural products in Florida, our cattlemen possibly have the best opportunity to increase their chances for profit.

Increasing one thing merely means decreasing another. Better quality and weight will tend to decrease risk — they're not without cost, but, like life insurance, it's hard to lose in the long run. Alone, either improved quality or heavier weight is desirable, but combining the two provides "double indemnity", and fortunately, they work together.

Quality or grade and weight are related in that an increase in one usually accompanies an increase in the other. They are not so closely linked, however, that the presence of one assures the presence of the other. Grade is enhanced, or limited, by the animal's stage of maturity. For example, lightweight vealer calves are given grade advantage because of their youth. Conversely, ujany heavy animals are discounted because of retailer preference for lighter weight carcasses, and consumer preference for young, tender beef,

duality or grade does not always set the price - price is often determined primarily by weight. Very often low quality lightweight calves and stockers bring spectacular prices per pound, but cash per head is the important thing. Price per pound doesn't mean much unless there is ample weight to apply that price to,

Tt's only natural that summer grass be used in the cattle program, but it does limit Florida >;attlem.en to some extent in deciding when best to sell. Usually more money can be made (or less lost) if grass cattle are sold before or after the usual October—November price slump periodo Generally, higher per cwt, prices for range cattle can be expected from Jan- uary through June

Although not recommending that all cattlemen start feeding all their cattle all the time, a lot more net returns are possible from better pastures and a little supplemental feed. Although other things must be considered, raising cattle one grade, with accompanying weight gains, will make them worth at least $20—$30 and often as much as $40-$50 per head more. Using rough cost estimates, this probably could be done for around $10-$15 per head.

Breeding up the quality of animals, furnishing them with better pasture and some supple- mental feed where pasture is not sufficient for best gains, if coordinated with a flexible and business-like marketing plan, could easily add $15,000,000-$20,000,000 to Florida's cattle income, every year,

Page 207 ITOVEHT-&BLE Lr/'ESTOCE LOSSES

It Yould be difficult to arrive at a close estimjjte of the nation's economic loss from diseased, infested, crippled and dead livestock. Needless to say it would be "many millions" of dollars wortli annually. This very directly lov^ers income and profit in producing livestock.

There are many causes of these livestock losses; most can be prevented, the lest minimized. Some of the reasons for most common losses are: 1, Inferior breeding stock - low quality, weak boned, 2f Lack of proper minerals and protein supplements, 3, Leek of sufficient good feed - a well managed pasture program reduces parasites and deseases and improves thriftiness and hardiness, as well as being conducive to economical meat production. 4, Defective handling and transporting equipment - broken boards, protruding nails and other unnecessary obstructions, holes in the floors, lack of proper partitions for separating stock, slippery or smooth floors, sharp hard comers, 5, Improper care and handling - using clubs or prod-poles, losing temper, kicking, rush loading, overcrowding, sharp horns on cattle, tusks on ho^s, over-fatigue over-exposure, over—filling, unsanitary conditions (encourage worms, etc.), lack of adequate space, shade and water. Also, fast and erratic driving and sudden starts or stops vfhile hauling; mixing species r-nd sizes. Improper branding and other operations including warm weather dehorning, marking, castrating, etc, should not be practiced.

These items are preventable; internal injuries from swallowing foreign objects and many deseases and insects cannot be "prevented", but o?n be reduced measurably by vaccinating or inoculating, dosing and spraying, keeping premises sanitary and free of loose wire, nails, etc.

Most of these reooaimended practices are also beneficial economically; if practiced their cost is returned several times in hard cash when animals are marketed.

Additional recommendations

1, Adequate feed trough or rack space, 2, Comfortable shelter, 3, Dehorning cattle destined for feed lots, 4, Ample working pens, chutes, etc. 5, Use only 3-4 inches of sand on truck floors when hauling, do not use straw or sawdust, 6, Remove animals from feed several hours before loading. 7, Handle as quietly as possible.
