Dairy prices likely to rise with demand and income gains
Dairy prices and farmer returns in 1939 depend on consumer income growth and demand for dairy products. Ohio State expert Ivan McKellip notes that the federal outlook points to higher prices mainly with a general economic recovery. He says prices remain above feed costs and should stay strong through winter, with ample feed and rising milk cow numbers anticipated as culling slows. Regions nationwide should share in the expansion, especially in established dairy areas adopting better practices.
