Scope & content | HE Argentine Republic has in recent years been in the forefront of world agriculture, particularly as an exporter of wheat, but never has it played so important a part in the international wheat market as during the past year. Harvesting a record crop of approximately 320,000,000 bus from 20,500,000 acres sown in the early months of 1928, the republic found itself at the beginning of 1929 with a surplus of about 234,000,000 bus, after allotting for seed for the new crop and human consumption for the year.
