^Hit nail on head right there.
Prices are “decent” right now IF you are ignorant and ignore inputs.
Like I have referred to in my other posts, you can not stay in business very long( farming or anything), if you just look at gross income. NET IS WHAT KEEPS YOU IN BUSSINESS! Sick and tired of people commenting “Well prices are higher than a year ago”! But are they high enough to cover your HIGHER prices on inputs?
Going over things last evening for tax appt. this morning and comparing 2024 expenses to this year. THE ONLY thing lower than a year ago was Gasoline…. which isn’t a big expense on my schedule F % wise. Little things…for example zip ties or replacement LED lights….. crazy increase.
