My dad told me 30 years ago he’d raise all the Corn you wanted for$1 bushel if he could buy Nh3 for$55/ton. I can’t get past the comment “ these prices aren’t that bad” take today’s prices and put them in an inflation calculator and tell me “ that these prices aren’t so bad” . Even if you took a 1975 price and yield. $240 in 1975 Corn revenue/acre 80 BPA x3.00$/bushel. Is equivalent to 1448 in 2025. Guys want to just keep telling themselves it’s ok so they don’t have to find something else to do.
Just telling you how I see it. If you think there is some magic bullet coming, I think your wrong. Hope im wrong but how i see it is you better figure a way to get through this at current prices or lower. What's hurting you so bad? Equipment? Land? Rent? As I stated, fertilizer and insurance (and other inputs), are hurting me, but I'll survive. |
