| Abstract | A state wide survey was made in California to determine the areas of occurrence of plant injury due to air pollutants, and to assess the damage to agricultural plant crops. On the basis of observations and evaluations made by agricultural specialists California's 1970 crop losses due to air pollutants were estimated to be approximately $25,690, 680. The losses were confined to 15 of the 58 counties in the state. The monetary loss figure does not include losses attributed to reduction in crop yield as a result of invisible damage with the exception of citrus and grapes. (APCO author) |
