IN OSEENCASm SINCI 1900

By Gaylord P. Godwin WASHINGTON UPI —The Agriculture Department predicted today the 1965-66 citrus crop will be about 10 per cent larger than the 1964-65 crop and 14. per cent above average. In review of the fruit situation, the department said Jan. 1 cold storage stocks of apples were a little smaller, and those of pears moderately smaller, than stocks on Jan 1, 1965. In mid-January, grower prices for citrus fruits were below a year earlier, while those for apples and pears generally were up slightly to moderately, the department said. For the first half of 1966, prospective supplies of citrus juices are larger, and retail prices are lower, than a year earlier. Supplies of canned deciduous fruits, however, are down and prices are up, the agency said. Citrus crops for the 1965-66 season have enjoyed generally good to excellent growing conditions, the department said. The Foreign Agricultural Service said world exports of oilseeds, oils, and fats in 1966 are expected to exceed those of 1965 and to come close to the record exports of 1964. The agency said movement from the United States again will be the predominating factor in the world trade. The major gain from a year earlier probably will be scored by the edible oils, the agency said, but palm oils. Industrial oils, and animal fats may expand somewhat. There may be a decline in marine oils for the fourth successive year, FAS said. Incomplete reports show that world exports In 1965 reached an estimated 10.6 million short tons, oil equivalent basis. This was 3 per cent or 349,000 tons less than in 1964.

FAS said the over-all decline stemmed chiefly from the smaller volume of animal fats traded. Exports of palm oils and marine oils also declined, but edible oil exports reached a new high and industrial oils increased moderately. Exports of edible vegetable oils were sparked by record movements of soybeans and rapeseed.
