Synopsis

Excerpt from Problems of Western Cooperatives in Obtaining and Distributing Fertilizer<br/><br/>This report provides management of farmers cooperatives in the Western States with information on problems in the development of their ferti lizer manufacturing and distributing programs. Such information also can be useful in forming transportation policies. The study upon which this report is based showed that trends in usage, sources of ingredients, differences between points of manufacture and places of consumption, and technological changes all have a direct bearing on transportation costs of fertilizer. Fertilizer is becoming an increasingly important item in farming in this area as farmers in the Western States increased their use of fertilizer nearly eight times from the period 1935-1939 to 1953, or to about 10 percent of the national demand. During this time, in contrast, fertilizer use for the country as a whole increased about three times.
