Bulletin No. 250 April, 1929 



The Consumer Demand for Apples 



By Lorian P. Jefferson 



The purpose of production is the satisfaction of the requirements of 

 consumers. In order to meet them efficiently, it is necessary to know 

 the character and extent of the demand. This type of investigation has 

 received comparatively little attention, but the importance of such in- 

 formation becomes increasingly evident. It was in the hope of benefiting 

 both grower and dealer that this study was undertaken.
