GRAIN AND PULSE CROPS, GRASSES AND CLOVERS, AND ROOT CROPS.

TABLE SHOWING AREAS AND ACTUAL YIELDS OF GRAIN AND PULSE CROPS, GRASSES AND CLOVERS, AND ROOT CROPS, 1920–21.

NOTE.—In cases where second crops have been lifted, the areas of such have been omitted in order to avoid duplication. The average yield per acre cannot in every case be ascertained by the mere division of the yields given in this table by the areas quoted, as the necessary allowance for second crops has been made in the calculations in such cases as are required.
