Excerpt from Fruits and Nuts Bearing Acreage, 1919-1946 For California, estimates of bearing acreages have been published annually since 1921. The first detailed coverage by age groups and varieties for all counties was obtained by the extensive federal-state survey of 1936. Since then, records for this State have been provided through cooperation between the respective county agricultural commissioners and the California Cr0p and Livestock Reporting Service, partly from new surveys and partly by recording changes from the previous years. In developing these records for California, most of the field work was done by the county agricultural commissioners and their staffs, while some of the field work and much of the assembling and compilation of data were done by the staff of the California Crop and Livestock Reporting Service. The major year-to-year changes include: acreages removed or abandoned, new plantings made, and the shifting from a nonbearing position to bearing. All improved records obtained from more recent surveys are used each year. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
