Ample Irrigation water will be available throughout most areas of the state Insuring continued good growth. Dean George D. Clyde, Irrigation engineer for the Utah Experiment station, pointed out. He said reservoir storage is excellent but cautioned users who depend on natural flow areas about excessive waste. The July 1 forecast for winter wheat Is 24 bushels per acre, four bushels more than was Indicated June 1. The report indicates as harvest of approximately 7,352,000 bushels from 282,000 acres as compared with 5,714,000 bushels harvested in 1943 and 5,236,000 bushar els average harvested over a period. The barley crop on a reduced will be about 400,000 acreage bushels under last year, while the prospects for alfalfa hay are excellent If the present forecast of 1,076,000 tons Is realized, the 1944 production will be the best since Utahs potato crop on a reduced acreage, Is forecast at about 84 per cent of last year with the sugar beet crop remaining static. More than 34,000 acres of beets have been planted and about acres should survive for harvest, which is about the same acreage as was processed last year. All Utah fruit crops are reported better than last year with the exception of cherries and apricots. The commercial apple forecast Is less than 1943 production, but favorable weather conditions for another month should easily increase the final outcome.
