Agricultural Prices

ISSN: 1937-4216

Released March 27, 2013, by the National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS), Agricultural Statistics Board, United States Department of

Agriculture (USDA).

March Farm Prices Received Index Up 3 Points

The preliminary All Farm Products Index of Prices Received by Farmers in March, at 202 percent, based on

1990-1992=100, increased 3 points (1.5 percent) from February. The Crop Index is up 5 points (2.1 percent) and the

Livestock Index increased 3 points (1.9 percent). Producers received higher prices for lettuce, broilers, corn, and eggs and

lower prices for hogs, milk, wheat, and onions. In addition to prices, the overall index is also affected by the seasonal

change based on a 3-year average mix of commodities producers sell. Increased monthly movement of strawberries, corn,

broilers, and milk offset the decreased marketing of cattle, soybeans, cotton, and hay.

The preliminary All Farm Products Index is up 18 points (9.8 percent) from March 2012. The Food Commodities Index,

at 185, increased 2 points (1.1 percent) from last month and is 13 points (7.6 percent) higher than March 2012.

Prices Paid Index Unchanged

The March Index of Prices Paid for Commodities and Services, Interest, Taxes, and Farm Wage Rates (PPITW) is

221 percent of the 1990-1992 average. The index is unchanged from February but 8 points (3.8 percent) above

March 2012. Higher prices in March for nitrogen, feed grains, mixed fertilizer, and supplements offset lower prices for

feeder cattle, feeder pigs, potash & phosphate, and diesel.
