Shear z/ GUIDE TO USERS Those seriously interested in using this compendium of deciduous fruit statistics will find it helpful to read the following brief comments about the data included and where additional supplementary data may be secured. Users will also find it worth while to read the footnotes to individual tables which briefly describe the data and indicate the original sources. Purpose— This is the fifth compendium of selected Deciduous Fruit Sta- tistics published as a special mimeographed report by the Giannini Foundation.. The data included have been selected as being the most generally useful of a much larger group of statistics that the compiler has found necessary to keep up to date in order quickly to help responsible groups in diagnosing some of the major economic problems of the deciduous fruit industries of the state, • Content — This compendium makes readily available, in one place, selected historical series of statistical data on supply, demand, and prices of fruits, evaluated and briefly described, and conveniently arranged to throw light on the direction or tendencies of the more important economic changes in the California deciduous fruit industries. The data given are mostly for the past fifteen or tvfenty crop years and deal largely with acreage, production, yields, 1/ Contribution from the Giannini Foundation of Agricultural Economics, ■ Mimeographed Report Mo. 83 June, 1943. It is a pleasure to acknowledge the outstanding contribution of Mr, R. E. Blair, Senior Agricultural Statistician for Fruit Crops of the California Crop and Livestock Reporting Service, to this report, i'lost of the historical series of data on California fruit production, utilization, farm price, and acreage presented herein were taken from published reports on fruit of the Federal and State Crop and Livestock Reporting Service prepared either by him or under his guidance. 2/ Associate Agricultural Economist in the Experiment Station and on the Giannini Foundation of Agricultural Economics, University California. - ' ■•»}.it4t' «!■«•• II utilization, consumption, shipments, exports, imports, and prices, with special reference to California and the United States. The tables included rolatB nostly to the ten deciduous fruits grown extensively in California, namely, apples, apri- cots, cherries-, dates, figs, grapes, peaches, pears, plums, and dried prunes. A section on dates is also included although they are not a deciduous fruit. Comparative Summaries — Some data on all fruits, including citrus, are included in the first section. Comparative Summaries. Rapid scanning of the tables themselves will acquaint one v/ith the nature of the data given in the section on Comparative Summaries. The averages on consumption, production, and utilization in this section were prepared before the published revisions of recent months of production of apricots, cherries, grapes, peaches, and pears, of the Crop Reporting Service were available and hence some of these averages are subject to minor revisions to correspond with the revised data used in the annual series for these fruits in other tables. A few revisions as recent as of June, 1945, have been included in this edition of Deciduous Fruit Statistics. Exports— Several tables on exports are included to help visualize the importance of our fruit exports to Europe before the present war. Data on United States exports by country of destination for the crop year, 1940-41, are incom- plete as their publication was discontinued after March 31, 1941. Publication of both export and import data by individual commodities was discontinued after September 30, 1941. Some export tables are in the section on Comparative Summar- ies and others in the sections on individual fruits. The comparisons of United States and California fruit production with total exports and v/ith exports to Europe by kinds of fruit and by uses, shown in the section on Comparative Summar- ies, pages 17-20 are particularly helpful in indicating the relative importance of exports to the fruit industry as a v;hole and to each fruit during the pre-War period, 1934-1938. i ■10. V'r.-S«*<'»-T'.'A * Ill other Sources — This compendium supplements the extensive body of fruit statistics included in Agricultural Statistics, the statistical yearbook of the United States Department of Agriculture. Of the numerous current reports of the United States Department of Agriculture dealing v;ith fruit statistics, the mimeographed Fruit Situation is of general interest. Some issues of the Fruit Situation and the November, 1942, issue of the Agricultural Situation contain very brief 1943 outlook statements on fruits with some tables and graphs in these and in the supplementary 1943 Agricultural Outlook Charts. More de- tailed statistics are available in Crops and Markets and in the monthly Fruit and Nut Crop Reports of the Federal and State Crop and Livestock Reporting Ser- vice and in the numerous releases and annual summaries on fresh and dried fruits of the Federal-State Market News Service at San Francisco and Sacramento. The most important current official publications in the United States of statis- tical data on foreign fruit industries are Foreign Crops and Markets published by the office of Foreign Agricultural Relations of the United States Department of Agriculture, Foreign Commerce Weekly published by the United States Department of Commerce and the mimeographed reports on foreign fruit production and markets of the Federal-State Market News Service at Sacramento. A nost valuable source of citrus statistics are the three bulletins of the California Fruit Growers Exchange on Statistical Information on (l) the Lemon (2) the Orange, and (3) the Grapefruit Industry. Acknowledgements — Footnotes on sources and description of data as given in the tables are shortened considerably in order to confine each table to one page. Exact details are available in my files. However, the agency or agencies from which I obtained the data are given credit for their contributions in the source stated at the foot of each table. Those who quote or reproduce data from this report will help to secure more adequate and improved basic statistics if .3 r'.ri^.iftJ- T. f?n r IV they, likewise, will give proper credit to the specific agency or agencies named in these tables as the original source from which the data have been secured.. Although I take the responsibility for the tables as presented, this compendium is really the joint contribution of many persons and agencies, official and private, engaged in the collection and compilation of economic statistics. I wish again to thank each of the persons and agenci 3 who have generously cooperated in making the data in this report available. I am particularly indebted to Hr. R. E. Blair of the California Crop and Livestock Reporting Service for his very generous cooperation. Kost of the historical series of data on fruit production, utilization, farm price, and acreage presented here were taken from published reports of Federal and State Crop and Livestock Reporting Service prepared either by or under his guidance,' Miss Valerie W. Smith, formerly Statistical Clerk in the Statistical Laboratory of the Giannini Foundation, deserves much credit for the accuracy of the tables and footnotes which have involved a tremendous amount of detailed, painstaking, ■ thoughtful work in compiling, checking, and documentation.

Since sales to the government are definite commitments and delivery probably taken in full by June 1, the season's total movement June-May is approximately comparable to previous years.
