Controls Will Cui Supply Os Wheat Prediction Made By Economists WASHINGTON (UP) — The Agriculture Department predicted--today LbaticrAps controls backed up %y the ne wsoil bank drfll cause a "substantial reduction" in the nation’s huge wheat supply in the marketing year starting next July 1. Economists writing in the ■ department'a publication 'The Wheat Situation".estimated the 1957 wheat crop at about 700 million bushels, far off from the estimated 1956 production of 939 million bushels. They forecast consumption in 1957-58 of 951 million bushels—6lo million bushels for domestic, use and 3+l million bushels for export —leaving a deficit of about 250 million bushels. This would be made up with wheat from the billion-plus bushels of surplus piled up in storage bins,' most of it government—owned. It
would be the first reduction in the climb from the 1952 carryover of 256 million bushels. The estimated 700 million bushels of 1957 wheat would be achieved under the ~3epartment’s goal of taking 12 to 15 million acres usually devoted to wheat out of production and putting it in the soil bank acreage reserve. If the goal is met it would mean -tt-planted acreage of 40 to 43 mil-' lion acres instead of the national allom'ent of'ss ftii 11 idh ac res. The wheat carryover on July 1 was 1,030,000,000 bushels, only 4,000.000 bushels above the carryover of a year ago. With the 1956 crop estimated to about equal expected domestic Tise and "exports, stocks next July 1 may continue about unchanged. . But'quotas, a form of crop controls, and a high soil bank deposit are expected to cut the supply substanially after the ’'current fiiarketlng The supply of wheaT“for ~fiia 1956-57 marketing year was estimated at 1,974,000,000 bushels,' a new all-time iiigh. This includes the July 1 carryover, the current ' crop estimated at 939,000,000 bushels and imports of about 5,000,000
