Prices are low in most sectors of agriculture right now. AgCountry Farm Credit Services CEO Mark Knisley says in the last two years, government payments have been helpful to get farmers through tough times. “Along with Market Facilitation Program payments, we’ve been fortunate yields have bailed us out in the past. We haven’t had the ability to have that kind of yield to market at this point.” Knisley says there is some unharvested corn from 2019 in North Dakota. There may be a fair amount of prevent plant acres this year and the crop concerns may line up into 2021. “We’re seeing plenty of headwinds in agriculture right now.” Knisely was part of a webinar on the farm economy hosted by the Fargo-Moorhead Chamber of Commerce.
