Watch Georgia farmers paying price for Ukraine invasion

By: Latest Breaking News & The Atlanta Journal-Constitution - March 30, 2022

University of Georgia agricultural economists Amanda Smith and Yangxuan Liu estimate that farmers’ costs to grow corn will rise from $356 to $460 per acre; for cotton from $465 to $623; for peanuts from $615 to $663; and for wheat from $217 to $346. And that’s on unirrigated land. It costs more for irrigated land because it takes fuel or electricity to run water pumps.

Beef prices are at record highs, so why aren't cattle producers thriving?

By: Montana Public Radio - March 25, 2022

“The reason I think that we have such consolidation in the industry is because they can deliver beef products at such a lower cost than a smaller facility could, so there have been economic forces that have driven toward that type of consolidation,” said Eric Belasco, an agricultural economics professor at Montana State University who focuses on livestock.
