The USDA says producers made and paid more in November than in October.
The index of prices received was 4.1% higher, with gains in corn, soybeans, broilers, and milk cancelling out losses in hogs, market eggs, turkeys, and oranges. The crop index was 3.9% more than the month before and the livestock index was 4.0% above October. Marketings were up for corn, cattle, cotton, and milk, down for soybeans, wheat, lettuce, and grapes.
