Imaginary young farmers test 1973 farm economics
The piece outlines two hypothetical farmers with 640 acre holdings and varied inputs. No. 1 buys land, machinery, and inputs totaling about 90 000 dollars against an 18 000 dollar gross income at 1973 prices, facing loan payments taxes and living costs. No. 2 plans stock and grain for a similar size operation with total investment near 82 000 dollars and potential 20 000 dollar gross, noting inflation may alter income.
Long Term Farming Plan Proposes Stable Markets
The piece argues that young farmers can succeed with good management and stable prices. It contends a family farm around a section is feasible, suggesting rural Manitoba could repopulate. It stresses the need for long term planning and parity to avoid price fluctuations.
