Survey Sees Slump in Farm Prices
A Feed Survey Committee reports farm product prices may decline this year as non-farm prices rise. It estimates feed demand at about 110 million tons with 11.7 million tons of high protein feeds used, noting liberal carryovers and possible exports of 1 million tons of corn. The likelihood of price deflation in 1947 hinges more on farm price levels than feed supply changes.
