How can anyone ever get ahead when the prices you are paid for your goods are dictated to you from the buyer? A dairyman sells his milk for whatever the processor wants to pay. If his price of grain, hay, fuel, electricty or replacement stock goes up, will the buyer if his milk pay him more? Yeah right.. You as a consumer, try going to the grocery store and dictating the price you will pay for your groceries. Good luck.
It's the same for egg producer, fruit producer, beef producers, grain producers, or any producer of food. You take whatever the processor wants to pay. I really doubt that since fuel prices are going up, a grain producer can request he get more for his grain. If you want to sell your product, you will have to sell it for whatever they feel like paying you.
It's only those who are selling their products on the farm or at places like farmers markets or even the internet, they can dictate their price. Also, for those who are big corporate farms, they can nogotiate their prices. It's those in the middle who suffer. Where are most of us?
