USDA Recommends
Turkey growers should limit
any increase in production in 1972
to 1.5 per cent over 1971 levels,
the U.S. Department of
Agriculture recommends in its
“1972 Turkey Marketing Guide.”
This recommendation should
be accomplished, USDA said, by
reducting production in the first
half of 1972 to a level of 10 per
cent below that prevailing in the
same period in 1971 and in
creasing production by 4 per cent
in the second half of the year.
This change in the production
pattern would avoid a price
depressing build-up of turkeys in
cold storage at the beginning of
the main marketing season.

To meet the recommended
level of production, the guide
recommends that one per cent
fewer turkey breeder hens be
kept for producing hatching eggs
than in 1971.
The “1972 Turkey Marketing
Guide” continues a series of
annual guides for the turkey
industry. The guides, published
by USDA’s Consumer and
Marketing Service, aim to aid
both turkey industry and con
sumers by recommedniing levels
of production, which, considering
demand, are likely to result in
stable and reasonable prices.

Farm Economy
Improves Some
Higher prices for eggs, hogs,
corn, cattle, celery, soybeans,
wheat and calves more than
offset lower prices for lettuce,
tomatoes, oranges, green pep
pers and broilers to boost the
Index of Prices Received by
Farmers two points (two per
cent) to 116 during the month
ended December 15.
The index was 12 points (12 per
cent) above a year earlier.
' Meanwhile, the Index of Prices
Paid by Farmers advanced one
point (one per cent) to 122. This
index was six points (five per
cent) above a year earlier.
With Prices Received up two
points and Prices Paid up one,
the Ratio of Prices Paid to the
Prices Received moved up one
point to 95. It had been 90 a year
ago.
Under the old system, Parity
Ratio moved up one point to 71. It
had been 66 a year ago.
