May Report Signals Loss of Farm Price Advantage
A Washington government report due today may show farm prices lost their wartime price advantage. The Agriculture Department will publish its monthly farm and nonfarm price survey, with officials noting parity may have been breached mid November for the first time in eight years. The parity ratio stood at 101 in mid October, meaning farm and nonfarm prices were 1 percent above the 1910-14 base. Most farm commodities have traded below parity for months, though meat prices and a few others have kept the ratio above 100.
