The value index for grains produced in 2018 is 1.101

the year-end price and production of grains for 2015 and 2018 are listed

Grain   price(2015) production(2015)    price(2018) production (2018)

Oats      2.4878        1298                        2.5712           814

Wheat    5.0936       26117                       4.9757          51287

Corn      3.7829        345506                  3.7043            366287

Barley    5.0836       4750                       4.9757            3333

The value index can be calculated by using the formula

V = ∑P₁Q₁/P₀Q₀

V = ((2.5712 x 815) + (4.9757 x 51287) + (3.7043 x 366287) + (4.9757 x 3333))/ ((2.4878 x 1298) + (5.0936 x 26117) + (3.7829 x 345506) + (5.0836 x 4750))

V = (2095.5 + 255188.72 + 1356836.93 + 16584)/(16584 + 133029 + 1307014 + 24147.1)

V = 1630704.22/1480774.01

V = 1.101

Therefore, using 2015 as the base period, the value index for grains produced in 2018 is 1.101
