Agricultural Outlook For Missouri Farms In 1957
The Agricultural Economics staff of the Missouri College of Agriculture outlines a 1957 outlook with generally favorable conditions. Farm income may rise modestly after 1956 gains, land prices again move up, feed grain costs rise, and cattle and hog markets show small shifts. It also urges farmers to start 1957 farm records on January 1 to improve future tax reporting and budgeting.
