Expect Fcrm Prices
To Remain Steady;
Costs May Drop
A hopeful note was sounded at the
recent Agricultural Outlook Confer
ence to the effect that there may be
some further drops in farm produc
tion costs next year, in addition to
slight reductions this year according
to Ralph Sasser, Assistant County
Agent for the State College Exten
sion Service. Prices received for farm
products, on the other hand, are not
likely to fall much below their pres
ent levels, except for normal season
al variations.
The fall in prices of farm products
and farm incomes this year has been
due largely to two factors, says Mr.
Sasser. These are bounteous harvests
and a sharp curtailment in foreign
demand for United States farm pro
ducts. .;"
Total crop output next year may be
reduced somewhat by acreage restric
tions for Wheat, corn, and cotton,
though supplies are again likely to be
larger if weather is favorable. An
improved foreign gold and dollar sit
uation may strengthen export demand
if official policies on the use of the
gold and dollar reserves permit Do
mestic demand, which has been at a
high level throughout 1953, is expect
ed to continue strong in 1954. Price
supports will cushion the effects of
large carryover supplies. Taken to
gether, fth'ese factors Spell av pr6bable
stabilization of farm prices near their
present levels, according to Sasser.
The general level of prices paid by
farmers ran about 3 per cent below
the 1952 level in the first 9 months
of this,-year, the county agent ex
plains. Most of the decline was due
to lower prices for feed and feeder
livestock, and prices of these major
items are not. expected to change
much from present reduced levels.
Prices of industrial products will
probably change very little, but price
concessions are likely to be more gen
eral than in 1953 for those commodi
ties produced primarily for the farm
market : : , .
