World Agricultural  

Re  

FOR JANUARY 5, 1948  

Television debut  

O. E. BAKER, professor of geography  

., at University of Maryland, recently pub-  

lished a stimulating article on this gen-  

•- *<?ral subject in "Maryland," the univer-  

sity's alumni publication, edited by  

r-i Reuben Brigham's son, David L. Dr.  

Baker estimates that it would be possible  

- to increase the world's crop production  

^ at least 75 percent by putting to crop use  

all land that could and should be cul-  

. , tivated, and by such application of scien-  

tific knowledge to agricultural technol-  

ogy as would, increase acre yields 40 or  

50 percent.  

* He remarks that, whereas Canada and  

the United States combined have about  

3V2 acres of cropland per person, of which  

3 are required for domestic consumption,  

1 the U. S. S. R. has 2 acres, Europe, ex-  

cluding U. S. S. R., only about 1 acre,  

China a half- acre per person — which,  

' however, often produces two crops an-  

nually — and Japan but a quarter-acre,  

* which is farmed most intensively. The  

Orient adjusts by using little meat, few  

' eggs, and practically no milk, on the well-  

known theory that it requires 3 or 4 times  

'as much land to produce the same num-  

ber of calories from animals as man  

would require using cereals directly.  

Dr. Baker also reminds us that if we  

could live on sugar alone, a quarter-acre  

>fof sugarcane or sugar beets would suffice  

us each for calories, or two-thirds of an  

"*acre of corn or of potatoes. But when  

corn is transformed into pork and lard,  

" fully 3 acres are needed to provide ade-  

quate calories per person, whereas IMj  

acres of wheat would do the job, if con-  

,.. sumed directly.  

Dr. Baker sees twice as many people  

i in the Orient a century hence as today, a  

half billion more in U. S. S. R. and  

«r satellites, but far fewer in the remainder  

of Europe, and only 100 million in the  

* U. S.
