Abstract

FTT is the ratio of the index of prices received by farmers (It) and the index of prices paid by farmers (Ib).
FTT is an indicator to measure the farmers' purchasing power parity in rural areas. FTT shows the terms of trade of agricultural products with goods and services consumption and production costs.
In March 2024, national FTT was 119.39 or decreased by 1.31 percent compared with that in February 2024. The decrease in FTT was due to the decrease in the index of prices received by farmers (It) at 0.46 percent, while the increase in the index of prices paid by farmers (Ib) at 0.86 percent.
