escalating slower
averages ranging from $93
per acre in New Mexico to
$2,051 an acre in New Jersey.
Major land value in
creases over the survey year
were not confined to any
particiular region, the USDA
report says. States with the
sharpest gains -13 per cent
or more - included
Wisconsin, South Dakota,
Mississippi, Louisiana,
Missouri, Ohio, Kentucky,
and California. Nebraska
was the only state showing a
decline for the year, down by
four per cent. However,
between Nov. 1,1977 and Feb
1, 1978 land values also
moved down slightly in
Kansas, New York, North
Carolina, and West Virginia.
USDA describes land
transactions as a sellers
market because of the
slowed increase of farm
values. The rate of farm
transfers has decreased by
three per cent. Nevertheless,
USDA adds that the sellers
market isn’t nearly as strong
now as whaHt was in early
1977.
