A Central Kansas farmer says he’s managing risk differently for next year’s growing season because of high input costs and supply chain disruptions. 

“Increases in inputs are just ridiculous.”

Keith Miller, who farms nearly 10,000 acres, tells Brownfield he’ll likely shift acres from corn to soybeans. “We’re going to have to do something because we can’t afford the cost of fertilizer for as high as it is right now.”

He says he’s already stocking up on parts for next year because many were hard to find this fall.
