Not so much for farmers;

Consumers are paying less and farmers are receiving less for this year’s Thanksgiving feast, the National Farmers Union (NFU) and American Farm Bureau Federation (AFBF) said in this year’s annual holiday food surveys.

Farmers and ranchers are receiving 11.4 cents for every dollar that consumers spend for Thanksgiving dinner, according to the NFU Farmer’s Share publication. The Thanksgiving Farmer’s Share compares the Thanksgiving retail food prices to what farmers receive.

Farmer’s feed the world . . . for less and less every year.
