Food Prices Rise Reflecting Higher Farm Costs In 1972
Virginia Department of Agriculture Market News Service notes retail prices for all foods rose 4.3 percent from 1971 to 1972 while farm production costs climbed 7.3 percent. Higher feed costs for chicken and livestock, including corn up about 40 percent and soybeans over 100 percent, contribute to higher retail prices. Broiler supplies are down, exports and school lunch demand up, and packaging and transport costs add to the rise. Some store weekend specials offer limited relief as meat and produce trend higher.
