For what it's worth, Idaho produced 35,525,000 cwt (1,776,250 short tons) of potatoes in fall of 1957. https://archive.org/details/CAT10268574003/page/4/mode/2up?q... ;)

Now this is what I come to HN for. Did you go looking for this report, or did you already know these were uploaded to the internet archive?

Looked for it. "idaho potato production 1957" to see what the right search terms were by looking at some hits, then "idaho farm report 1957" until I found that table via in-book text search; both searches as " Search text contents ", limited to <1965.

SARs are reported to FinCEN, which is part of the Treasury, not Fed.

> Reported to who?

Department of Homeland Security, I imagine. Probably the IRS too. Probably not the Fed, they can't really do anything with the data other than report it to someone else.
