Ready or not, harvest is here. Seed corn started in late August, and commercial corn and soybean harvest began fully the week after Labor Day. Yield expectations are encouraging, albeit mixed, depending on location. Expectation for on-farm profit, however, is as high for 2021 production as any year I can recall.
Strong grain prices throughout the growing season have provided an extended opportunity for profitable grain sales. As a result of the profit potential, farmland sales across Iowa have shifted higher, and there is great competition for productive land. In addition, still-low interest rates continue to support the land market. As we look forward towards 2022, input prices for seed and fertilizer have also shifted higher, thereby taking some margin back. However, at current grain price levels for 2022 production, and assuming an average crop next year, there is still profit potential to be had.
So, when land opportunities present themselves, many folks are raising their hand to compete. The following results are a testament to that – all across the State of Iowa.
