Middlemen Bite Record From Grocery Spending
Middlemen who process and sell farmed food took a record portion of consumer grocery spending in September as USDA reports show a total annual cost of 1 776 for a typical household. Farmers received 723 while middlemen took 1 053, with the meeting next week to probe margins. President Ford prioritizes inflation and budget cuts as GM profits fall and oil producers report gains.
