Estimated Areas Under Wheat, Oats Barley, and Potatoes (Season 1949–50)

Census and Statistics Department,
Wellington, 1st December, 1949.

As in previous years, cards were sent out by post to grain-growers and to potato-growers throughout New Zealand asking them to state what areas they had sown or planted, or intended to sow or plant, in wheat, oats, barley, peas, and potatoes this season. It may be well to note that only holdings of 1 acre and over outside borough boundaries are covered by the figures appearing below. In the case of potatoes a fair amount is grown on the smaller holdings and on holdings situated within boroughs.
