At 125.6, the Crop Production Index was up 2.2 percent from last month and 17 percent from the previous year. The Livestock Production Index, at 144.9, decreased 0.8 percent from May, but increased 35 percent from June last year. Producers received higher prices during June for oranges, corn, hogs, and soybeans but lower prices for strawberries, broilers, milk, and wheat. In addition to prices, the volume change of commodities marketed also influences the indexes. In June, there was increased monthly movement for wheat, hay, peaches, and corn and decreased marketing of oranges, milk, broilers, and strawberries.
