The Agri culture Department has reported that rising production costs more than offset the higher returns farmers received on their prod ucts in the first four months of this year. The department said farmers received $8,700,000,000 for their marketings in the first four months a 3 per cent gain over last year. At the same time, it said, farmers' production costs averaged 5 per cent higher.
