He also took a look at the Keagan Administration s budget-cutting pi ogram to tight intlation. i m not too optimistic about i educing mtlation,’ he said. I here s nothing more in tlalionary than detense spending because it s money down a rathole A 0 in all, he expected that 1961 might be a little better than the past year but nothing to cheer about David Poorbaugh, ot Poorbaugh brains, took a look at the teed situation. He said that coin supplies will depend on the coming seasons crop and soybean stocks are quite high due to reduced world demand I think we re finally coming to the point where world demand tor grains is going* to start outstripping supply, Poorbaugh said Then, you ui agriculture are going to be on the right side ot the markets He also took a look at price It there is a medium summer with medium rain in the Great Plains, corn prices shouldn't be 100 much higher. But it there is weather trouble, there will be $5 corn with no dit nculty at all, he said. He duesn t anticipate much lluctuation in soybean meal prices because ot the reduced world demand and good crop reports ti om toi eign growers tom Jurchak, Lackawana County agent, look a look at the milk price situation. Its his opinion that federal et torls won t come in time to eliminate the schedule April 1 pricing adjustment He further predicted that the Senate bid for further trimming of milk supports wid not pass. ' Milk prices tor 1981 should be dbot eight percent higher than 1980, ne said. But costs ot production are expected to increase about II to 12 percent. Kobert Bucher, of Com monwealth National Bank, began his comments by stating he thought the story in last Saturday’s Lancaster Karmmg citing gloom and doom was a' bit overdone.” He said that net income will be down and described it as * taking the cream otf the top. ’ It will be a tune to tighten the belt,’ he said. It’s a time to cut spending and make certain that major pur chases are really needed.” He said that lenders will be looking toward much better management He expects that the prune rate will average around 15 percent tor this year and ag borrowing rates will be about one percent less. John Shenk, Penn State agronomist, demonstrated his intra-red torage analysis program, which provides tast forage testing and ration programming. He described the Dodge van containing the analysis equipment as a traveling medicine show.” Shenk has been touring the state giving demonstrations to drum up interest in the system. It anything is needed in this county, 'he said, it s a good hay marketing program. ‘With 400 or so loads ot hay sold each week, the cost ot mistakes runs about $1 million a year. A county like this needs several ot them But its not going to be until people like you want it' ’
