Food price rise eyed as 4 to 5 percent next year
Secretary Earl L. Butz predicts a 4 to 5 percent hike in food prices while arguing food remains the only major item purchased with cash. He notes labor leaders like George Meany shape policy, cites last summer’s grain moratorium, and cites farmers expanding despite a record 5.8 billion bushel corn crop in 1975. Walter Goeppinger warns conserving soil matters more than short term gains, as corn yields lag the 1972 peak by about 10 bushels per acre.
