The president of Iowa Farm Bureau fears inflation is going to wreak havoc on agriculture.
Warren County farmer Craig Hill says it’s a major concern.
“We think back to the 1970’s (with) energy prices and then, of course, commodity prices always lag a little bit (from) inflationary pressure. But rising interest rates and what that has to do with capital investments and so on.”
Speaking to Brownfield at the Iowa Farm Bureau annual meeting in Des Moines, he says farmers should be able to weather inflated costs next year.
