Elgin, 111./ Administrators X go ahead, live a lot in the shirt that's,^ 100% perfect | Bert Parks Van Heusen TV host This Business - Farming Prices of farmland in Illinois have been going in both directions -- up and down. But the downs have1 slightly outweighed the ups in the past year or so. According to a recent report by the USDA, average prices declined 2 percent in the year ended last July. This figure may hide more than it reveals. Brokers say that -some recent sales were made at $100 to $200 an acre less than the lands might have brought a year or two ago. At the same time, other sales show prices still going up. These diverse trends often occur in the same county. In general, central Illinois seems to show the greatest price weakness. The drouth in this area in 1959 was a pricedepressing factor. Prices In northern and southern' Illinois show less evidence of weakness. Northern Illinois had a bumper corti crop in 1959. The effects of non-farm influences are also strong in the northern part of the state. New technology has greatly increased the productivity of farmland in the southern third of the state. Many people have asked, "Is the price of farmland too high?" A counter question would be, "Is farmland too high for what?" People buy farmland for many different purposes. Buying a farm is for some farmers essentially a way of buying a job. This is especially true In areas where land values are relatively low. They may be willing to accept a low\jate of return on their investment in order to be assured of having jobs that they like. Some people buy farmland as an investment. They balance the return from their farms against returns from other investments, such-as corporation stocks, bonds and nonfarm real estate. Some people buy land as a speculation, or as a hedge against inflation. This has paid off very well over the past twenty-five years. The few who bought substantial amounts or lanji "on a shoestring" ten to twenty years ago have become well to do. By contrast, those who put their savings. into bonds and similar.- securities have little to show^ for their thrift. Many farmers buy land to build up the size of their operations to more profitable levels. In 1959, 45 percent of all farmland purchases were for this purpose. The income-producing ability of land is usually much greater when it is used for farm enlargement than when it is used in an independent operation. ^ Considering the various reasons that people have for buying land, a price may be too high for one person and a bargain for another. Farmland values in Illinois will likely move in the same direction and about as fast as values In other states. For the nation as a whole, current prices for farmland are unusually high in relation to farm income. The value of farmland per acre is about 11 times the annual fuim income per acre. Land was similarly high three times in the Past 5u years -- in 1911, 1921-22 and 1931-33. The first of these years, 1911, was in the farm prosperity period of 1910-14 that; has since become the parity standard. The other two periods, by contrast, were,, years when farm prices and income were at extreme low points. - Another comparative figure is called the "farm capital turnover." This is a ratio pf land value to annual net farm income. This ratio has averaged over 8 to 1 in the pdst three years, or about the same as in 1910-14. In the 1920s it tended to stabilize at around 7 to 1, and in the 1930s&t 6 Vt to 1. L. H.
