Government figures show wages failing to keep pace with inflation while farm income is projected to rise only modestly. Hourly compensation rose 7.9 percent annualized in Q2, but inflation eroded real buying power with a 5 percent annual decline after adjustments.

Agriculture notes prices for cattle and hogs mean a smaller farm income gain, with net farm income possibly near 30 billion dollars for 1979.
