The Wheat Pool Budget Examines Bread Price Links
March 21 1986 budget notes the wheat price impact on loaf cost and farmer returns. It tracks a 20 oz loaf at about $1.00, flour costs about 38 cents to growers, and farmer earnings of roughly 13 cents per loaf. It also reports on Tangier peas trials by eight Rossburn Angusville area farmers, noting poor weed control and uneven yields with only one respectable field.
