UQ: The following is an analysis of the potato supply statement for 1952.
It was made Up by the State Secretariat? for the Collection and Pur-
chase of Agricultural Products. The analysis is boxed on the tables
listed as follows:

1. The yield of early potatoes for 1951 was unbalanced. In comparison wit#
the requirements: too few potatoes were harvested in the first two ten-day
periods of July. Towards the end, of July early potatoes regularly flooded
the narlet, thereby causing losses,. In order to bring in the early potatoes
soorier and avoid later narket floodings, the farmers were encouraged to
conply by means of such measures as favorable weights and prices as well
as delivery contracts with earliest possible delivery dates.
2. A large number of the farmers refused to cone'ude these contracts. In-
stead of early agreenents for 260,000 metric tonss.only early date agree-
ments for 16,000 metric tons were concluded. An increase of. 15,000 metric
tons was shown over 1951 production up to 20 July 1952, however, despite a
poorer yield and a later harvest. Awarm spell caused winter and sunmer
grain to ripen immediately after one another with the result that collection
was about 20.000 metric tons behind by the end of July. This caused diffi-

?pities in the srpply situation, especially tn Saxony. There, 100 percent
cultivation and a yield of 130 cwts a hectare was reported, lemmas actually
cultivation anounted to 75 percent and the yield amounted to only e0 cwts a
hectare. The 1952 cultivation plan for early potatoes envisioned an area of
52,500 hectares, cf ehich 42,278 hectares was realized. In addition 35,000
hectares ewe under private cultivation, leich yield on the average 121 acts
a hector? or a gross total of &out 425,000 netric tons. Only about 210,000
notrjc tons, or 50 percent, were delivered, in contrast to the used 65 per-
cone.
3. This indicates that in 1952 a larger part of the yield was wit!-held by the
fareerr for fodder. :breover, the 1152 steels of seine are 2,1C00000 head
hieeer than in 1951. The monthly potato feeder revere_ out ar?ounts to 700,000
netric tens. Loss early potatoes are delivered to the nale.et because the cul-
tivated area is re widely distributed mime, meal far :s whore nem early
potatoes are used. In view of these chanes in the econrny and the storing
of the potatoes only up until 3(3 June 1952 (whereas in 1951 it was up until
31 July), the reduction of the area to :to crltiveted in 1153 fro- 52,500 to
42,500 hectares could not be approved. The decisive factor is the nueber of
the seeelings available, which are eecnonic and distributed according to plan.
. The following nroposals are !ado for 1053:
a. aCtigultUek
1) An increase feen the planned 42,500 hectares to at least 50,000 hec-
tares in the area devoted to early potatoes
2) Additional early seedlings for exeansion and consuner cultivation
3) Additional cultivation of early potatoes in collectives
4) l:easures for the increase of cultivation of progerninated seedlings
by
a) Propagation and graftini.
b) Procurer:tent of equip:lent for pregornination (Voreeimene)

2) Conclusion of delivery contracts between nroducer an VEAD through

5. The apparent rovirenent of early potatoes and in part of nnettelfreehn
potatoes for 1953 is as follows:.

1. The area cultivated for "mittelfrueh" potatoes in 1952 amounted to 47,800
heotares. Figuring an average yield of 129 metric tons a hectare, a
gross yield of 617,000 metric tons is expected.. The total potato require-
ment shq11 be net fron.this in the period troyi the middle of August to
the middle of September and is figured as follows:
Population, etc. 2400000'oetric tons
Fodder ? 7001000 metric tons
Seedlinga 60,000 metric tons
1,000,000 metric tens
'Therefore there will be a shortage
"nittelfrueh" potatces, which anorn
late potato hervest. In 1952 this
of about ,C00000 metric tons of
t would cover the period up till the
would be later than Usual.
2. The state secretariat? has ordered the district councillers and the VVEAB
to collect at least 10 percent of the goals by 10 September 152, 15 per-
cent by 20 reptenber 1952, and 20 percent by 30 September 1952. The
:anistry of Agrictlture and Forestry has passed cut similar orders.
3. The following is svggested fcr 1953:
a. Planned cultivation of "mittelfrueh" potatoes in an area of 70,000
hectares
b. Cultivatien of "nitteltrueh" potatoes in key points of the sugar beet
districts.
c. rcreing.of the "mittelspaet" potato Sabina, which up till ncw has
boon neglected.
III Z1t...t.9.121222
1, A cenperison of the 1952 statement with that of 1951 reveals the following
picture regarding edible potatoes.
2. The amount of 222,000 metric tons edible potatoes from the 1951 harvest
were Issued in addition to the amount planned for 1952. The reason for
this was as follows: the requirements estimate for storing by the amdstry
of Trade and Procurenent was accepted without cuts. Accordingly, the cus-
tomers estimated the current yield as low. This uncovered requirement
would male increasing demands on the current yield. The :Aniestry must
therefore tal:e measures to regulate the reports about the current yields.
3. According to .the statement 3,122,000 metric tons of edible potatoes in-
c3uding purchase wore on hand in 1951. In 1952 only 2,900,000 metric tons
of potatoes are planned for general consumntion. In 1951 the goals were
fulfilled by 93 eeroent. The 1952 state-ent bases its estimate of 2,900,000
metric tons edible potatoes on 100 percent fkatillnent of the delivery quota.
Tho chances cf purchasing of potatoes in early 1953 seen slight. In 1951
production and planned production of potatoes were about even; in 1952
there will be a deficit cf 30110,000 metric tons.
4. In 1951, 333,000 metric tons of potatoes were processed; in 1.952 it was
planned to process 695,000 metric tons. In addition there were in 1951
only 44,000 metric tons of fodder potatoes; in 1952 there were planned
135,000 metric tons. Together, 803,000 tons of potatoes for industrial
purposes and fodder potatoes were planned for 1952 in comparison with
377,000 tons for 1951.

It is suggested that the arcunt of processed petatoes be rodeced. If

7. A ferther saving of 5,0001000 east nerls could be nade, if the 150,000
netric tons planned for flales could be reduced to 75,000 netric tons.
8. ;coerdine to the latest reports sone flale factories, previously reported
evallable by the .-tete secretary of Food and Lueury Industries, are not
reedy tc produce, so that t! .e planned anount will not be able to be net
for lack of canacity.
9. In Eeptenber an anount cf abcut 26,000 notrio tons is planned for pro-
cessing into starch. :lainly Inittelfruehn potatoes nust be used for this.
Because nnittelfrueh" potatoes are sorely-needed for the population, be-
cause no potatoes for industry are te be expected fro "mitto.ifruehn
potatoes, and since it meld be irresponsible to deliver edible potatoes
to the yrite potato factory, it is suggested that potatoes be processed
for starch only iron 1 October 1P5:' on.
10. In sldition it is suegeotod that the surplus 27,000 netric tons allotted
for export in the third quarter be disposed of in a short ties in West
Berlin depending on the currert crop of edible potatoes, and if necessary
tc transfer the rest in the fourth quarter. l';orecver in view of the
deficit of 3,110,000 netric tons the stateeent should be emlined to see
u hether the plenned eeport can be :'et in the full anount of 100,000 eetric
tons.
11. In reeard to the fixing of the anounto to be stored at 125 tens and other
uncertain factors of the statevent, the steels of 347,000 netric tone of
edible potatoes are too low to cover the needs in the first and second
quarter of 1953. It is suggested to increase the stools by at least
600,000 netric tons by collecting and storirg the difforenoe of 253,000
etetric tons not in factcry potatoes but in edible potatoes. If part of
the edible potatoes were not required and were processed for starch, then
the subsidy required for then would be nuch less than if the edible po-
tatoes had to be bought at double erica for processing. The processing
of about 200,000 netrie tons of factory potatoes would require purchase
of an additional 170370,000 mast marks in the early part of 1953. The
processing of this anount cf edible potatoes would only require about
6,000,000 additional east marks.
