Nebraska’s farm income prospects remain mixed for 2025, with lower crop revenue projections buffered by continued strength in the cattle sector and substantial government assistance. The net result is that farm income for the state is projected higher in 2025 even as financial challenges deepen for some producers.
While the overall outlook remains strong, it can hide the real concerns in some sectors and the high levels of uncertainty over key production, market, and policy developments that could affect agriculture the rest of this year and into the next.
The details are always more complex and highlight the need for a deeper analysis. Join us for a review of the details and the latest farm income situation and outlook for the rest of 2025 and beyond for ag producers.
Presented by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s Center for Agricultural Profitability and the University of Missouri’s Rural and Farm Finance Center.
