Considering the census values from the point of view of raw materials used (oilseed) and the processed oil, we find in the official statistical publications the following references: the quant i ty of seed used in 1946 exceeded 900,000 tons, of which 600,000 tons were sunflower, 107,000 peanut, and 120,000 cottonseed. F ro m them were obtained 207,000 tons of refined oil. I t should be pointed out that statistical values represent the tonnage of refined oil and that the crude oil yield was probably about 37% of the seed. Of the total quoted above, 155,000 tons were sunflower seed oil.
