Farm Problems in Modern Agriculture and Returns
An editorial by William J. Jensen of Buller Manufacturing argues that the U S farming economy, while vital for global markets, shows modest returns on asset investments. He notes assets rose to 338.9 billion in 1972 with only 5.7 percent return, below ideal profit, and predicts lower farm prices later as output increases. He urges urban readers to understand the economic facts and be patient as production expands to meet world demand.
