The proportion of permanent pasture is high, and is partly 
accounted for by the fact that many of these so-called “ holdings ”’ 
consist of a single field. The average stocking is good, the number 
of pigs and poultry kept being, as would be expected, propor- 
tionately much higher than on holdings of any other size. 
8. Fruit and vegetable farms.—The number of holdings 
grouped under this heading is 28,400 with a total area of 379,000 
acres. There are in addition many other holdings where fruit or 
vegetables are largely grown, but the holdings in this group are 
those in which half the area or more appeared to be devoted 
to these crops. The average size is small, being only 13% acres.
