News About Today's Woman Home Career Leisure Arts Question of Where Food Dollar Goes Answered A new year is just over the horizon. Many a household will contemplate how they can hold expenses in line so they can buy something other than necessi ties during the next 12 months. One question many a family asks is, where docs the food dollar go when it is left behind at the checkout counter in the food market? Between the con sumer and the producer there aie several "middlemen'. The retailer and wholesaler, the as sembler, the transporter, the processor and the packager. Each one expecting some mone tary return for his work. These additional services have added 1 to the cost of marketing food and have been a major factor in the steady rise of cost from nine billion in 11)40 to 42 billion dol lars in 1!M2. Over 511 per cent of this In crease in cost has been in higher wages and salaries, freight rates and more expen sive equipment and supplies. Roughly onc-fourlh of the ex pense has gone into increased marketing services such as pro cessed and prepared foods and meals eaten away from the home. The other quarter is just additional expenses for market ing the large volume of farm products to an ever increasing urban population. There arc wide variations in marketing costs among the different food groups. As on ex ample, (or every meat dollar spent, the farmer who raises the animals for meat receives 1 54 cents while 4li cents is re quired to make the meat cuts available to me consumer. I When a dollar is spent for fruits and vegetables, growers receive 21) cents and the olher 71 cents is used lor marketing and distribution. Marketing is necessary lo get raw food in the form and place suitable lo the consumer, but this cost should be recognized in the over all price of food.
