College Station.—The cost-
price squeeze on agricultural
producers is expected to be
even tighter-in 1*66, says John
G. McHaney, agricultural eco-
nomist for the Texas Extension
Service.
Ftarm income for 1*65 is now
10 percent under that for the
year before and the trend
downward is expected to con-
tinue into 1956. On the other
hand, points out McHaney,
production costs for the farm-
er will remain high and some
may increase.
Too, incomq from crops will
be smaller because of reduc-
tions brought on by controls
lower prices. livestock receipts
for 1956 could possibly equal
those for 1966.
McHaney gives three main
factors for the ever-widening
gap between the national and
farm income. They are the
very high rate of agricultural
production and the large carry-
overs of faro products; a con-
siderable drop hi farm exports
and the Inflexibility of costs of
production and marketing
which have failed to decrease
with the falling farm prices.
The economist expects farm
mortgage debts to rise again
in 1966. Continued high vol-
ume of real estate loans to re-
finance existing debts is ex-
pected and non-real estate
debts are expected to increase.
It could all add up to a decline
In the liquid financial reserves
of agriculturists.
The international situation
is classed as an unknown fac-
tor In the overall picture but
one that could have tremend-
ous influence. Watch it closely,
advises McHaney.
Agricultural producers are
advised to give more thought
to the economic side of their
operations. McHaney say* fall-
ing farm prices have broke
more producers than drouths
or too much rain ever did. Net

men fluctuates considerably
over a long period and these
changes must be considered in
planning both short and tong
time operations.
McHaney is sure that farm
families should give more con-
sideration to economic condi-
tions. For as he put it, national
and world economic forces are
today shaping the prices which
will prevail tomorrow, next
year and in the next decade.
Agriculture, he concludes,
has had fta ups and downs and
will continue to do so. Flans
should be made which allow
for there changes.
