Nowadays，the increase in the prices of agricultural products is one of the greatest concerns of the people and the government.The government has announced a series of policies(政策) to prevent the prices from rising further.Rising housing price is still a big concern for the people，but since farm products are needed every day，the increase in their prices has made life very difficult for the people.Many people may think the increase will help farmers.But have higher prices of farm products really benefited the farmers?Take the increase in vegetable prices in the first half of this year for example.Though natural disasters such as droughts and spring frost did not cause the prices of farm products to increase greatly—in fact，prices of some products did not increase at all—vegetables have become dearer by as much as 20 percent compared to that of last year.This means only a small part(or even none) of the extra money that city people have paid to buy farm products has gone to the farmers.The extra cost actually has gone to middlemen.As the fact shows，just increasing prices of farm products will have a negative influence on the entire economy.On the one hand，the price increase has created some abnormal phenomena，which hurt farmers' interests.On the other hand，resources will enter the agriculture because of the high price of farm products，which would finally create negative effects on the whole economy.In such a case，it would be better to leave the market to decide the prices instead of raising farm products' prices to protect the interests of farmers.Actually，such a way will be better for farmers in the long run.根据文章内容判断正(T)误(F)。
