Farmers See Big Price Increases Pass Them By
The National Grange reported that farmers benefited little from rising retail food prices. It noted most of the 10 year price surge came from labor and distribution costs, while farm values rose slower or fell. In 1957 an hour of work bought more food than in 1947, but consumer prices grew faster than farm values. Food costs were 15 percent above 1947-49, versus 29 percent for all consumer goods.
