Prairie farm income falls to fourth worst since 1971
United Grain Growers directors told delegates that Prairie farm earnings in 1980 and 1981 were the third and fourth worst since 1971 after inflation. They cited deflated income drops from 1979 to 1990, rising input costs, and uneven provincial gains, with 1961 projections noting modest net gains despite high inflation. They warned crop prices and feed costs affect farmers differently across Manitoba Saskatchewan and Alberta.
