Agriculture. Guayule cultivation. Guayule shrub in blossom. If growing conditions are good, the plant is a prolific seeder and the seeds have relatively high visability. Guayule plantings will produce a estimated 600 tons of rubber in 1943, provide a crop in 1944 which should yield 33,000 tons and a harvest in 1945 to yield 47,000 tons. An annual production of 70,000 tons to 80,000 tons will materialize if full capacity of nurseries now being built is utilized. Addition: This program is part of the Department of Agriculture's Emergency Rubber Project administered by the Forest Service under congressional authorization "to make available a source of crude rubber for emergency and defense uses"
