Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book addresses the severe drought of 1951 that impacted Missouri, Colorado, New Mexico, Wyoming and Texas. The author incorporates data from the Cooperative Economic Insect Report. Grasshoppers were a major problem in the drought, damaging corn and alfalfa in the central US. The author goes on to discuss other pests like the corn borer, concerns about mildew and a Khapra beetle infestation. The Khapra beetle, native to India, is a new threat to stored grains in the US and could become a serious pest in the South. The author also discusses the effects of the drought on milk production and wool production. The book concludes with information on government assistance to farmers impacted by the drought and a USDA campaign to promote beef consumption. This descriptive account places the 1951 drought in its historical context and provides a wealth of information on its impact on agriculture, the economy, and government policy.
