Excerpt from The Southeastern Vegetable Processing Industry: Marketing Practices and Management Problems, 1960 This decline in the production of vegetables in the Southeast has concerned those interested in the southern vegetable industry and the progress of southern agriculture. Perhaps the greatest concern has been among those individuals and agenc1es promoting programs for economic development, a matter of current interest in most Southern States. It has been suggested that the economies of many rural areas could be greatly enhanced by developing a more vigorous vegetable processing industry. Some leaders envision, and have advocated, that many communities could profit by establishing small canning plants to be supplied by expanded local vegetable production. Such plants, they reason, would stimulate local economies through increased farm income and nonfarm employment opportunities.

Excerpt from The Southeastern Vegetable Processing Industry: Raw Product Procurement, 1960 Traditionally, production of vegetables in the Southeastern States has been primarily for fresh market outlets. 1/ Though processing has been a minor outlet for most vegetables, it has served an important role in absorbing the surplus pro= duction of those vegetables which could not be disposed of profitably through existing fresh market outlets. In addition processing has provided a market for some veg etables grown exclusively for this purpose. In these roles, the processing industry has added appreciably to market stability, an important factor in vegetable production. Vegetable processing in the Southeastern States is not new, but the total volume processed is small compared with other areas, such as the Pacific Coast or Midwest. The competitive position of many of the plants currently operating in the Southeast is constantly being challenged by plants in other areas more strategically located with respect to certain raw vegetable supplies Southeastern vegetable producers and processors are aware of the necessity of improving farm production techniques and processing technology to improve their competitive position.
