Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Secretary of Agriculture, 1947 We can gage the market need by comparing agriculture's position in the prewar years 1935 - 89 with its position today. Before the war, in a period mainly of depression, United States civilians consumed 97 percent of the available food supply; exports absorbed the remaining 3 percent. In the war years (1941 - 45) United States civilians con sumed only 84 percent of the supply, though food consumption per capita increased as also did the population.
