Crop Prices To Go Down Livestock Up
Kansas State University agricultural economists Tierney and Sands outline likely price shifts for 1983 and 1984. They warn wheat could stay near $3.55 per bushel with modest falls from PIK sales, while corn and soybeans remain volatile. Retained ownership of calves and wintering may raise profits as cattle prices edge higher by 1984. TELENET updates and a Dec 7 teleconference are announced.
