The Department of Agriculture's December 30, 1947 Grain Conservation Order limited each eligible distilling plant's use of grain for beverage spirits during December 31, 1947 through January 31, 1948, prohibited wheat, required plant-level reporting, and published the applicable plant quotas in Appendix A.
Verified against the complete order on Federal Register pages 8879–8881, including § 10.1(c)–(f), § 10.1(m), Appendix A, and F.R. Doc. 47-11494.
The order governed grain used to manufacture distilled spirits or neutral spirits for beverage purposes during its one-month effective period. It did not constitute a permanent production regime.
The exact operative text, dates, formula, reporting duties, wheat prohibition, and plant appendix directly establish the return from voluntary conservation to mandatory, plant-specific federal controls.
Safe for the timeline as a bounded one-month control event. Treat later extensions or voluntary continuations as separate events.
