Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Lamb Marketing Costs and Margins
This report on marketing costs and margins for lamb is one of several such reports on food items that have been published or are planned by the United States Department of Agri culture for 1956 - 57. This group of reports, issued by the Marketing Re search Division, Agricultural Market ing Service, is designed to meet a need for more information on farm to-consumer price spreads or margins for food.
Farmers expect their prices to move up and down with changes in the volume of farm marketings. They also recognize the seasonal character of supply-price changes, and many of them make adjustments to meet such changes. Farmers often turn to the Department for an explanation of these supply rice changes. During periods of declining prices, they want to know if retail price changes have re?ected the lower live animal prices at the farm.
