Michigan Wheat Plunge Hits Farm Income Hard
Michigan farmers face a sharp drop in wheat prices despite strong yields. Wheat fell from about $2 to $1.16–$1.30 per bushel, totaling over 17 million dollars in lost income on a 40.7 million bushel crop. The Wheat Certificate Plan, approved by Congress, is blamed for higher milling costs and rising bread prices as government stockpiles are released.
