Farm outlook projects steady expenses and modest price rises
The United States Conference on Agriculture reports 1961 farm production expenses should be similar to 1960. Farm wages will rise modestly but the total wage bill stays about the same as farmers hire less labor. Machinery and motor supply prices may increase, yet not by more than 1959 to 1960. Seed costs rise slightly for field seeds with alfalfa seed supply down but above the 1957–59 average. more clover and grass seeds are expected.
