Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The first step is the determination of a ‘preliminary farm yield’ which approximates the average yield per acre for the farm for a five year period. The number of pounds of flue-cured tobacco produced each year for the period of 1959 through 1963 is divided by the total acreage of tobacco harvested from the farm for each year respectively. Having obtained the yield per acre for each of these five years, the three highest years are selected and a simple average of these three years is taken. The ‘farm yield’ is next ascertained by multiplying the preliminary farm yield by the national yield factor of .9349. Then the farm marketing quota is simply the farm yield times the acreage allotment.””
