In 1972 the family paid $ 1, 311. That was a price increase of nearly one-third. Every family has had this sort of experience. Everyone agrees that the cost of feeding a family has risen sharply. But there is less agreement when reasons for the rise are being discussed. Who is really responsible? Many blame the farmers who produce the vegetables, fruit, meat, eggs, and cheese that stores offer for sale. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the farmer's share of the $ 1, 31lspent by the family in 1972 was $ 521. This was 31 per cent more than the farmer had received in1959 But farmers claim that this increase was very small compared to the increase in their cost of living Farmers tend to blame others for the sharp rise in food prices. They particularly blame those who process the farm products after the products leave the farm.

In 1972 the family paid$1,311.That was a price increase of nearly one-third. Every family has had this sort of experience. Everyone agrees that the cost of feeding a family has risen sharply. But there is less agreement when reasons for the rise are being discussed. Who is really responsible? Many blame the farmers who produce the vegetables,fruit,meat,eggs,and cheese that stores offer for sale. According to the U.S.Department of Agriculture,the farmer’s share of the$1,311spent by the family in 1972 was $521.This was 31 per cent more than the farmer had received in1959. But farmers claim that this increase was very small compared to the increase in their cost of living. Farmers tend to blame others for the sharp rise in food prices. They particularly blame those who process the farm products after the products leave the farm.
