The price of farm land in
Texas and elsewhere is more
than holding its own.
Apparently the business re-
cession has not had an effect
on land prices any more than
the recent seven-year drouth.
According to a recent nation
wide survey, good farm land
will continue to be a scarce
commodity.
During the 12-month survey
period, only 31 of every 1,000
farms were voluntarily put up
for sale. This compares with
57 ten year ago.
As recently as 1952, more
than 55 per cent of all land
sales were made by active
farmers. Now only 50 per cent
are.
There is a possibility that
social" security may result in
some slight easing of the tight
land supply, however. The
acreage offered for sale by re-
tiring farmers is increasing.
But competition to buy land
is becoming stiffer. Bulk of
the demand is by farmers who
want more acres for expan-
sion. The survey showed that
roughly 40 per cent of all farm
real estate purchases were
made by active farmers lor
farm enlargement. This per-
centage is increasing.
Not just farmers are bidding
furiously for farm land. More
and more city folks are in the
market, too. Thirty-six per
cent of buyers were non-farm-
ers, up from 32 per cent five
years ago.
Other findings showed the
average value of farm real es-
tate increased six per cent
Irom the spring of 1957 until
