Far ahead in its wheat-planting pro- gram, Russia is moving steadily nearer its goal of becoming once again a major wheat-exporting nation. Its progress this year comes at a time when the four major wheat- exporting nations—Canada, Argentina, Australla and the United States— through representatives at Geneva are seeking a preliminary agreement on plans to control their output, stabilize international wheat trade and bring better prices to growers long depressed. Planted 46,136,000 Acres. The Bureau of Agricultural Eco- nomics reported yesterday that on April 25, the last date for which unofficial | Russian planting statistics are available, ussians had planted 46,136,000 acres of Spring wheat. This is far ahead of the progress made last year, when 24,695,000 acres had been sown on the | same date, and 1931, when only 16,793, | 000 acres had been planted. On collective farms, which last year accounted for 70 per cent of Russia’s wheat output, the assembling of seeds— an important part of the opera was 3 per cent in advance of plans on | April 20. These plans were laid to cover the entire planting movement and were stepped up from the program of other years. On the same date, however, seed as- sembling on peasant farms was behind schedule, particularly in the upper Cau- casus and Ukraine regions. Before the World War Russia was regularly a potential billion-bushel producer. It turned out wheat in ex- cess of that amount on several occa- sions and was a major factor in deter- mining world price and supply. Seeks to Recapture Place. During the World War it lost that place, and has never regained it, has increasingly centered its agricul- tural ambition on recapture of that position. Its production fell sharply during the war, dropped further during the revolution and remained at about 200,000,000 bushels or less a year until 1923. Its production since that time has increased from year to vear with only a few lapses, barely falling short of a billion bushels in 1930-31, which repre- sented about 20 per cent of the esti- mated world production for that year. Its crops the last two years have failed to pass that point, partly because of delay found necessary for adaption and development of the collectivized system of farming.
