Farm Income Seen Rising Into 1962 Says AP Report
The Associated Press notes farm income may total 12.6 billion dollars this year, up from 11.6 billion in 1980, aided by higher price supports for crops and dairy and strong slaughter hog demand. Hogs are expected to stay steady through midyear with prices around 16 to 19 cents, then slide later as supplies rise. Eugene Gambill notes hog prices may soften in the second half due to larger slaughter hog supplies.
