Western Indiana farmer Kevin Cox says production costs are eating into higher commodity prices as the season begins.

“We’re experiencing great prices, but input costs are so high,” he says. “Last year anhydrous was $575 a ton, for example. That’s an important input product we use to raise our corn crop and now we’re seeing levels at $1500, $1600, and $1800 a ton– more than triple what it was last year.”

He tells Brownfield all input prices are up.
