Deficiency
(a) Although Gurevich’s estimate is for urban dwellers only, here it is used for
rural dwellers as well, who, of course, may have had an even higher consumption
level of vegetables.
(b) Figures for 1925, 1930, and 1935 include total vegetable imports; nonetheless,
lacking the exact figures, it is assumed to be exclusively European Jewish imports,
a safe assumption given the import figures for 1926, 1927, 1928, which are known
to be exclusively European Jewish ones.
