Future Returns If, as indicated above, future produc- tion continues at about the present level, there may be a moderate increase in apricots available for canning since fresh sales and drying are likely to decrease still further. If consumer purchasing power continues to climb at or near the present rate, demand for apricots in fresh and processed form will expand. Under these circumstances farm prices should increase. In years when bumper crops are produced, however, grower re- turns will decline, as they have in the past. Farm prices for cannery, dried, and fresh apricots should continue at about present relationships. This conclusion is reached in spite of the fact that the pro- portions of the crop entering the three major outlets is expected to change somewhat. [29].
