Butz and economists project a 1.5 percent rise in food prices at supermarkets and restaurants over the next four months, lifting 1975 levels about 9 percent above 1974.

The Russians have bought about 16.5 million tons this season and may reach 25 million. further purchases before January are already included in the 9 percent outlook.
