NET FARM INCOME UP 54 PERCENT

 

Net farm income in New York increased 54 percent in 2003 to $597 million. The value of livestock production was 1.89 billion, down 3 percent. Purchased inputs decreased 5 percent to $1.82 billion while direct government payments increased 2 percent.

Increases in purchased inputs for seed purchased and petroleum fuels and oils were more than offset by decreases in feed purchased, livestock and poultry purchased, fertilizer and lime, pesticides, electricity, repair and maintenance of capital items, marketing, storage, and transportation expenses, and contract labor.

 Of other agricultural costs, property taxes were up 7 percent. Interest costs increased slightly. 

 

NET VALUE ADDED

 

The value-added format is used to present income accounts, replacing the traditional net farm income format. The underlying accounting concepts are the same under both formats and the value for net farm income is identical. The presence of more disaggregated components under the value-added format makes it easier to discern what forces are driving the changes and trends in farm income. In addition, the value added approach to sector accounting is the format accepted and utilized internationally, making comparisons across countries more feasible.
