Farm population likely fell despite survey hint
Washington reports a statistical quirk in a government survey may show a small rise in farm residents for 1972 while Agriculture Department experts privately believe the farm population declined slightly. The April estimate could list about 9.5 million people on farms, about 4.6 percent of the population, up from 1971’s 9.425 million. Experts caution sampling variance of up to 250 000 persons can occur, and signs point to no real gain this year.
