year ago. The U.S. total of
29.9 million tons is up 24 per
cent from 1978.
May 1 potato stocks held in
storage in Pennsylvania by
growers, local dealers and
processors are estimated at
750,000 cwt., 12 per cent of
the 1978 crop. At the United
States level, an estimated
60.8 million cwt. of potatoes
for all uses were in storage
in the Fall producing states.
This reflects the largest
monthly disappearance
since the beginning of the
storage season primarily
because of the increased
processing activity and a
large volume of seed
deliveries.
