Farmer Sentiment Drops Sharply on Rising Input Costs

Original: Ag Economy Barometer: Input Costs Drive Sharp Drop in Farmer Sentiment

The Purdue University/CME Group Ag Economy Barometer recorded a sharp decline in farmer sentiment, with researchers attributing the drop primarily to rising input costs such as fertilizer, seed and fuel. The index signals growing pessimism in rural America about agricultural economic conditions, a concern for crop planning and farm investment decisions heading into the season.

Why now: Rising farm input costs are squeezing margins and depressing agricultural outlooks, making the sentiment drop newsworthy for the farm economy.
