THE GRAIN BOOK-1981

This is a statistical compilation of data concerning the grain industry and grain transportation for the period 1970 through 1980. New emphasis on export grain during the decade placed demands for transportation to ports and on the port facilities. The sections include rail and barge grain traffic statistics, traffic flows by time periods, grain car fleet, rail-hauled grain exports, and grain production and grain storage data.
