Farm income improves

Increased sales of agricultural products and higher farm prices resulted in a markedly improved income situation for farmers in 1978. Topping S2B billion, last year’s net farm income was 40 per cent higher than the previous year and the second highest on record, according to Phil Braman, of the Kosciusko County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Office. When the net farm earnings were added to the record $36 billion off-farm earnings, total income for fanners was an alltime high of.jK or $65 billion. Braman notelrThe gross income increased by sl4 billion last year, and is expected to reach $122 billion. “Much of this is due to another record in farm exports and establishment of a national grain

reserve. We’ve shipped more than $27 billion worth to overseas customers last year and farm exports lead the way in offsetting the cost of imported products,” Braman said. In addition, over a billion bushels of grain was isolated from the market to establish the farmer owned grain reserve. , Prices for all farm products averaged about 23 per cent more in 1978 than in 1977. Cattle prices were 50 per cent higher and hog prices, 28 per cent. Wheat prices were up 32 per cent; corn, 18 per cent and soybeans, 21 per cent. “Voluntary farm programs were also instrumental in improving farm prices,” the ASCS official said. To avoid glutting the market, farmers placed more than one billion bushels of wheat and feed grains in the reserve.

;tnd placed large amounts of (grain under loan. Farmers also built a record amount of grain storage to store grain when prices are low. Grain prices remained high, even in the face of record crops. Braman said prospects are looking good for farm export sales, and the set-aside, grain reserve and farm facility loan programs are available in 1979 to help reduce grain supplies.
