Food prices unlikely to drop says Texas industry group
Texas Industry Congress warns no major agricultural changes justify expecting cheaper food. Fall wheat acreage is down about 25 percent from last year, poultry and livestock are scarcer, farm labor is tight, and urban demand draws workers from rural areas. Despite higher product value, output is reduced by labor shortages. A strong home garden, poultry and livestock expansion, and full corn and grain plantings are urged to meet feeding needs.
