Agriculture. Guayule cultivation. A two year old guayule plantation in the Salinas Valley of California. Note the abundant seed stalks occurring on these irrigated plants. Guayule plantings will produce an 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"

Agriculture. Guayule cultivation. A young field of guayule at the end of the first growing season in the Salinas Valley of California. Plants were transplanted from the nursery in May; picture taken the following fall. Guayule plantings will produce an estimated 600 tons of rubber in early 1943, provide a crop in 1944 which should yield 33,000 tons and a harvest in 1945 to yield 47,000 tons.

Agriculture. Guayule cultivation. Mature guayule shrubs, about five years old. In harvesting, the entire shrub is dug up since rubber occurs in both roots and branches. Guayule plantings will produce an 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.
