2 Extension Circular February 9 RED AND BLACK RASPBERRIES" Agricultural Statistics 96 to 9 Oregon by Counties Red raspberries are of material economic importance in Oregon. Cash farm income in 9 amounting to l,0o,00o exceeded any year of record, despite the increase in acreage harvested and smaller production than in 9. Although acreage has decreased substantially since 96, total annual production has held fairly steady. The price in 9, estimated at.7 cents a pound was around one-fourth higher than the price for the 9 crop and more than double the average price from 96 to 90. The Willamette valley produces approximately 90 per cent of the crop. As will be noted from the data on page, the most important county is Multnornah, which had nearly 0 per cent of the entire state acreage during the five-year period 99 to 9, inclusive. Ciackamas county had approximately 0 per cent, Linn county approximately per cent, and 7ashington county per cent of the state total. Small acreages are grown in practically every county in the state.
