5G Modern Business Geography ’ a UNITED STATES AND CANADA PRODUCTION OF OATS [3 AD Fig. 41. The United States and Canada grow more than a third of the world’s crop of oats (Fig. 40). Like rye, oats will grow in cooler climates than wheat; the crop will also stand more mois- ture. Notice the heavy production of oats along the lower St. Lawrence, where wheat production ia relatively light (Fig. 28) and the summers are cool and humid. 2. The United States produces about 3,000,000,000 bushels of corn per year, practically all of which is consumed at home. If all the farmers in the country increased their yield to equal that of the Copnecticut farmers, how many bushels would be produced each year? How could all the extra corn be used? What would happen to the price? Why does Connecticut excel in yield per acre? Suppose a farmer in Illinois has 40 acres in corn and raises 40 bushels »f corn to the acre, or a little more than the Illinois average. How much more money would he receive if he increased his yield to equal the average yield of the Boys’ Corn Club members? of the prize winners? What effect would such increased yields have on the prices of corn and of meat ? D. The consumption of corn. What conclusion do you draw from the following figures as to the rela- tion between the amount of meat and of cereals consumed by a country ?
