Farm Income Net Declines In 1948 Nebraska Study
Nebraska farmers faced lower net farm income on their 1948 tax returns, with price indices for most farm products dropping from January 1948 peaks. While expenses fell little, input costs such as machinery, repairs, gas, oil, and hired labor rose, signaling tighter margins for many farms.

Break even point in farm income depends on many factors
The article notes rising costs in seeds and livestock, buildings and fence repairs, real estate and personal taxes, with income tax down slightly this year. Farm family living costs are increasing and, combined with other expenses, push overall costs up. The break even point depends on factors within and beyond the farmer's control, with net income varying by farm and year and largely on the operator's ability.

Downward Trends in 1949 Business and Farm Prices
Rural economist Professor Frank Miller of the University of Nebraska forecasts a slight downturn in 1949 business activity. He notes farm commodity prices may stay weaker than manufactured goods, with grain prices supported by loans and contracts. Retail post-holiday sales drop 10 to 30 percent, yet demand for consumer goods remains solid at reasonable prices. Miller warns marginals firms may struggle as volumes fall and prices slip. He also predicts cattle prices will respond after midwest blizzards next summer, with hog markets strengthening by mid-February and shorter February-March supplies lifting prices.
