Corn farmers are concerned about the high cost of inputs for this year and beyond.

Larry Buss of Logan in west-central Iowa tells Brownfield he made his 2022 fertilizer and crop protection purchases six to eight months ago.

“At an increased price than what they cost us the year before, but far less than what we have today. So we’re set for 2022 (but) my concern is for the 2023 season.”

He says crop input prices tend to go up quickly but come back down very slow.
