Farm Food Value Drops Nine Percent in Midwest
Logan The farm value of all food products is declining in the Midwest. Charles Ingraham Hocking County agricultural agent reports farm prices averaged nine percent lower in the first three months of this year than 1952. Farm value equals 46 cents of every dollar spent by consumers for farm products with the rest for marketing and processing. Grass cattle marketing is expected to be higher this summer than last year, while fed cattle marketing may decline in the fall due to fewer cattle being placed on feed. Storage space for crops this summer and fall is expected to be tight with large amounts of old crops in government storage under the storage program.
