农产品过剩的灾难美国经济危机的迹象近来是越来越显著了。与工业生产的下降同时,农业危机日趋严重。美国今年农产品滞销的现象在历史上是空前的。据美国农业部今年六月所发表的数字,在一九五三—五四年度,美国小麦的生产量将达十一亿三千二百五十万蒲式耳(每蒲式耳合五十四公斤),加上以前卖不出去的小麦积存量五亿七千五百万蒲式耳,供应量将高达十七亿零二百五十万蒲式耳,但本年度美国国内小麦的需求量占计仅为六亿八千五百万蒲式耳,出口量最多也不过三亿二千五百万蒲式耳,这就是说,本年度美国小麦的供应量要超过需求量达七亿多蒲式耳之多。
The Catastrophe of Surplus Agricultural Products Signs of the U.S. economic crisis have become increasingly prominent lately. Along with the decline in industrial production, the agricultural crisis is worsening. The phenomenon of the unsalable sales of agricultural products in the United States this year is unprecedented in history. According to figures released by the U.S. Department of Agriculture in June this year, in 1953-05, wheat production in the United States will reach 1.1332 billion bushels (54 kilograms per bushel) Together with 575 million bushels of wheat that was previously unavailable for sale, the supply will be as high as 1.7025 billion bushels, but domestic demand in the United States this year will be only 68 million Five million bushels, with exports up to no more than 325 million bushels, means that the United States supplies more wheat than 700 million bushels of demand this year.
