Book excerpt: Excerpt from Economic Status of the Grape Industry The primary object of this study has been to analyze the chief available statistical data relating to the industry as a basis for a partial and tentative answer to the question, what is the economic situation of, and the outlook for, California's fresh-grape industry? The study has been carried to the fullest extent warranted in a general survey, in View of the insistent demand for the information upon the part of agricultural agencies. The question of market distribution, important as it is, has barely been touched upon in. The present study, chiefly because of the lack of sufficient data to serve as the basis for making safe conclusions. There is urgent need, however, for a special and intensive study of this phase of the grape industry, but at the present time the means are not available for making the extensive first-hand studies which this would involve. Absence of available data at this time has also made it necessary to omit from this publication any discussion of the cost of producing grapes. Those who wish quickly to get the gist of the study without reading it in detail will find brief Conclusions and a Summary given in the first few pages. In addition one may quickly visualize many of the chief facts by glancing at the figures and reading the brief story under each of these. Preparation of the bulletin has been greatly facilitated by the generous assistance of many individuals and Organizations. A list of these is given in the Acknowledgments on page 110.
