Abstract: Excerpts from the report: The farm value is the return to farmers for the farm products equivalent to the product sold at retail. The farm-retail spread is the difference between the farm value and the retail price. It is the total charge made by the marketing firms for assembling raw products and processing, transporting, and distributing dairy products. Retail prices and farm-retail spreads for the principal dairy products changed little from 1963 to 1964. The farm values of these products increased slightly. Prices and farm-retail spreads for these products have been relatively stable in recent years.
