Agriculture (Linseed)

Colonel Crosthwaite-Eyre
asked the Minister of Agriculture why linseed was omitted from the last form of census to be completed by farmers.

Mr. T. Williams
The March census is not intended to be a comprehensive inquiry and is confined to the major crops in the forecasts of acreages to be grown. It has been decided, however, to include linseed in the March 1950 returns.
