Farm price parity debate and USDA income study
A discussion of farm price parity and methods to reach it notes that parity compares prices farmers receive with prices paid. A USDA study from 25 years shows farm investment averages around 60 000 dollars per farm with net income rising from 800 in 1940 to 2100 in 1955. It details hourly incomes by region including Wisconsin 35 cents and Texas irrigated cotton 1 77 dollars, illustrating wide regional differences.
