Some Impacts of Inflation on Farm Firm Growth

George F. Patrick

Journal of Agricultural and Applied Economics, 1978, vol. 10, issue 2, 9-14

Abstract: During the 1970s, many changes have influenced U.S. agriculture. Researchers have devoted considerable attention to analyzing the effects of greater variability of agricultural product prices and means of coping with imperfect knowledge. Questions related to energy and the environment are receiving increased research emphasis. Hathaway has written on inflation and food prices and Tweeten has analyzed the real price effects of inflation on agriculture and total net farm income. Agricultural lenders, farmers, and others have expressed concern about higher land prices and capital requirements, but little research has been directed toward analyzing the effects of inflation at the firm level.
