1978 Farm Outlook Shows Little Financial Improvement
The Agriculture Department projects minimal gains for farmers in 1978 amid record grain stocks and bumper harvests. Lower prices for wheat and corn, set-aside programs, and rising input costs squeeze net incomes, though livestock may improve modestly. Weather and export programs will shape outcomes for cattle dairy and hog sectors.
