Farm exports fall to six year low in 1968
UPI reports U.S. farm exports for the 1968 fiscal year declined to about 5.7 billion dollars, the lowest in six years. Declines stem from a 600 million drop in commercial sales and a 400 million fall in food for peace aid, with weaker world demand and port disruptions cited as causes.

Farmers Unimpressed By July Farm Cost Dip Across Nation
Washington report notes July farm production costs fell for first time in 20 months but farmers still pay about 183 000 dollars more for machinery and other inputs. Prices for livestock and crops failed to keep pace with rising costs, with tractors and repairs cited as key strains. Farmers blame machinery costs, inflation, and inadequate price parity for livestock, wheat, corn, and milk against rising expenses. Local growers like Harold Town and John Wagner warn equipment quality and repairs hinder productivity while labor gains do not offset farm costs.
