Food price rise seen 1.5 percent in four months
Agriculture Secretary Earl L. Butz and economists estimate a 1.5 percent lift in food prices at supermarkets and restaurants over the next four months. They project 1975 prices about 9 percent higher than last year partly due to U.S. grain exports to the Soviet Union totaling 10.3 million metric tons since October. They caution the full impact will appear next summer and fall as higher grain costs filter into meat and cereal prices, with possible further increases if Soviet purchases rise by about eight million tons this season.
