Food Prices Near High Mark Reported by Agriculture Committee
The House Agriculture Committee released a study noting that despite a drop in farm prices, retail food costs remain near record highs. It found that most lower farm prices since 1961 have not translated to cheaper consumer goods, with processing, marketing, and transportation taking 56 cents of every consumer dollar while farmers receive 44 cents. The department meanwhile forecast ample major foods for 1954 and a modest rise in per person consumption, with some items like lamb and mutton likely scarcer.
