Farm Outlook

Already American agriculture is moving to
meet the new conditions arising out of the
war abroad and the national defense effort.
reports that market statistics clearly reveal
the new trend. Farmers, in planning their
operations for 1941, are shifting over from
grain production to livestock production.
The reason for this is not far to seek. Recent
sharp advances in the prices Of such crops
as hogs and cattle are responsible. Behind
this upward movement there is, of course, de-
mand. 1t comes from the millions who are
going back to work and from the other mil
lions whose standard of living is going up be-
cause employment is steady.
This impetus has been given the market for
these products at a time when foreign demand
for American grain as we'll as American cot
ton and tobacco has virtually dried up. The
country has SURPRISES of corn and wheat, and
though prices are not as low as they might be
without government action it is obvious that
there is not much chance for them to 90 up.
In general it can be said that the predictions
of agricultural economists are already being
borne out. Farmers in this country can expect
a greater return than they have been accus-
toned to in recent years, speaking by and
large, in 1871.
However, there is another prophecy to be
considered. That is that higher production
costs, because of rising wages and rising
prices of farm machinery and fertilizers, will
tend to reduce this greater income as the
year advances.
1t is to be hoped that farmers will be far
sighted in making their plans. They would be
wise to remember what followed the first
World war. At the same time, it is to be con-
sldered that the South, which is not in the
grain belt, may expect its farmers to share the
rewards to be had from increasing their live
stock production. This is the better assured
by reason of the South's green winter pastures.
