Food price trends and farm retail spreads in 1974 75
USDA economists note food price pressures may lift retail costs by 10 to 12 percent through mid 1975. 1974 retail food prices rose about 14.5 percent from 1973 while middleman charges and farm prices accounted for roughly 11.5 and 3 percent respectively. Beef prices fell about 13 percent at retail, though cattle prices were down nearly 30 percent. Weather, harvest yields, and crop prices could steer prices again later in 1975.
