Milk Price Ratio to Stay Below Average in 1954
USDA economists project the milk to feed price ratio will remain below average through harvest, with 1954 data showing the milk feed ratio 7 percent under the 1933–52 average and butterfat ratios also weaker. September 1954 farm milk prices were 7 percent lower than a year earlier, with higher concentrate costs and demand projections supporting near support-level prices as the surplus is handled by USDA.
