1 The pounds given here are for the acres planted once and do not include the seed for acreage replanted.
Consequently the product of the price paid by growers per pound of seed multiplied by the number of
pounds of seed planted per acre may not equal the seed cost per acre as shown in the tables analyzing the
costs of production. The costs per acre for seed shown in the analysis tables include the cost of seed planted
on abandoned acreage as well as on the acres harvested.
The prices paid by growers for seed was 20 cents per pound in 1921, 1922, and 1923.
