Short cut for land value per acre described

Assistant Economist Dwight Gadsby of Iowa State College explains a quick method to estimate land value per acre. He suggests capitalizing the going mortgage rate on net per acre return, noting that at 5 percent interest and $20 net per acre, value would be $400. He also advises combining productivity with normal value concepts and current market value for greater accuracy.

Hamburger Up Prices Press Hamburger Demand

Iowa State College farm economist Francis Kutish says hamburger prices have risen faster than choice steaks in the Midwest. The cattle cycle shift from contraction to expansion has feeders withholding cows and calves, driving higher prices on canner and cutter cattle that enter hamburger production. Slaughter of fed cattle is down from last year.

Cattle numbers expected to rise in 1958 says Kutish

Slaughter pace is ahead of last year but a large holdback of cows means 1958 should see the addition of two to three million head to total cattle numbers. In the previous year cattle numbers were reduced by about half a million as the cycle slowed.
