§ Mr. Evelyn Kingasked the Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food what on average he estimates farm profits per acre have been or will be in 1964, 1970, and 1972 respectively.
§ Mr. PriorA sample of accounts for England and Wales shows that average net income per acre on full-time farms was £11.50 in 1964–65 and £13.60 in 1970–71. I cannot forecast net incomes for 1972–73, but they should benefit from the recent determinations.
