Farm land values rise across Maine and nation in 1958
In March 1958 and March this year farm land values rose eight and six per cent, respectively. Maine shows a six per cent increase, trailing only one Eastern state, Pennsylvania, also at six per cent. The U S Department attributes gains to farmland as an investment and demand from operators, while population growth and urban sprawl push values higher. South Dakota remains an exception with no comparable boom since 1920. Economists expect continued rises and warn buyers to avoid delaying debt-financed purchases to prevent a future trap.
