Farmer Actually Receives Less in Food Costs Study
The University of Nebraska College of Agriculture reports the rising cost of living shows farmers get a shrinking share of the food dollar. In 1947-49 the farmer earned 446 of 940 for a typical urban family basket, while in 1961 the farmer got only 39 of 1060, with marketing costs rising sharply. The study notes prices farmers receive fell 12 percent since 1949 while inputs rose 20 percent, and nonfood grocery items and new services now inflate consumer bills.
