Devaluation Effects and Economic Outlook for 1950
Doron notes that devaluation will raise import costs while making exports harder, with effects slow to appear until spring and primarily impacting South American and other foreign trade. He cites uncertainties in the international scene and Congress spending as key variables, but predicts farmers will enjoy continued strong income and demand for farm products through 1950 notwithstanding a softer second half.

Farm price outlook after war stabilizes slowly
Economists warn inflation uncertainty will likely keep price supports higher than before. crop prices especially corn, face volatility since Lend Lease. Farmers will market more livestock but have less corn and soybeans. Farm input costs drop only slightly. A small 1950 corn crop would shrink income as grain prices rise little and sales volume falls.
