Farming Cost Rise Not Expected In 77
USDA analyst says 1977 should see no sharp rise in production costs though some inputs like fuel and fertilizer may edge higher. Reinsel notes capacity expansion and steadier price trends for most inputs, with fuel costs likely up 6 to 10 percent from 1976. Daly projects 1977 net farm income around $23 to 25 billion under normal weather.
