County Agricultural Picture Looks Bright
Rensselaer County dairy and poultry sectors show a positive 1970 outlook. Agent Philip Bemis says farm milk prices may rise next year but stay below 1969, costs should grow slower, and milk production per cow could top 225 pounds. Poultry prices rose about 10 cents in 1969 with egg prices near 1969 levels in early 1970.
