The author suggests that this is an opportune time to get the 
sunflower industry established in Australia. He states that "the 
annual production of the Danubian countries amounts to from 60C to 
700 million pounds, Russia producing 223 million pounds and export- 
ing annually 110 million pounds chiefly to Germany, Sweden and Great 
Britain. In 1935 approximately 5,000,000 acres were sown in P.ussia. 
The uses of the sunflower and its derivatives are enumerated, 
among them its use as feed for poultry and stock and for ensilage, 
for the production of edible and technical oils, as a substitute for 
olive oil, and as a staple diet of the Russian peasant. Sunflower 
cake is said to contain 45 percent protein and about 10 percent oil, 
and the meal 35 percent protein and about 2 percent oil.
