Beef Facts Do you know how much of a 1.000 lb. steer actually reaches the retail meatcouii' ter Only about 437 II., points out a ne Oregon Stale I'm versity Oxidative Fkten sion M'rvice publication call ed 'Here U Wh...;.Food Prices are Confusing." Tins is Just one of the facts presented In theserhil report which Is avallalbe from the Morrow County Fx tension Office, reports Don Stangel. county extension u gent. Prepared b Stephen C. Marks, OSL' Extension Agri cultural Economist, the re port attempts to help consu mers understand some of the basic economic factors which Influence the price of meat and other fimds. "There has teen a great deal of concern expressed reccntlv about Increases in food costs." Marks explains. However, people must un derstand the economic forces influencing prices for rea sonable discussion to take place." Meat prices, for Instance, reflect consumer demands for beef and their ability to pay for It as the demand for. beef, unlike Mirk and lamb, is closely related to perso nal Income. Beef cuts at the retail le vel are priced In accord with the value of each cut as de termined both by supply and demand. Discussing why food prices are up, Marks notes tli.it "no one in particular" Is responsible for the increase which is "basically caused by the interaction of changes in the supply and demand for food." Demand continues to grow and costs incurred in the mar keting system lieyond tlie farm gate are passed along to the consumer. Marketing services play a large part in the total picture. "More tlun two-thirds of the money spent by con sumers for food goes to pay for the services that bring the food from the farm to the retail counter in the form and at the time and place consumers want it," Marks observes. Copies of the report may be obtained through the Mor row County Extension Office in Heppner.
