The plains added 7 myn acres since 2006..
So a drop of "only" 3.05 seems pretty reasonable.. don't you think?
I'm actually adding 1.5 myn in the cornbelt.. You could argue for a higher trendline yield but I also agree with the post above about guys trimming costs that will have an impact on yields.. do they cancel each other out..??
