More Acres To Fill Silos This Year

Food price trends match worker earnings despite droughts
A Farm Bureau summary from the Agricultural Adjustment Administration notes that food prices have moved in line with workers earnings despite severe droughts in 1934 and 1936. Earnings gains helped offset rising food costs, though fruit vegetable and dairy prices rose with crop shortages. Meat prices are expected higher in early 1937.
