What this measures and why it matters

  • PPI: Other Agricultural Chemicals tracks what producers charge for the raw and semi-finished inputs that dominate a manufactured product's bill of materials. Quotes priced off last quarter's material cost erode margin when this index climbs, so estimators watch it to keep pricing current.
  • The figure comes from BLS Producer Price Index and is reported in index (1982=100). MFG Calcs archives every published value, so the chart and table below show the full recorded history rather than a single snapshot, and they extend automatically as new data lands.
