Crop prospects improve for 1972 farmers in Massachusetts
The 1972 crop outlook in Wellesley Hills shows better balance after 1971 oversupply. Acreage seeded for 1972 totals 308 million, with losses from Hurricane Agnes varying regionally. If weather cooperates, corn output may approach 1971 levels while overall feed grain carryovers keep supplies near a year ago. Wheat stocks are ample, cattle demand remains strong yet cautious, and hog prices may ease slightly. The first half of 1972 exceeded expectations, signaling a cautious but favorable trend for farm income and prices into the year’s remainder.
