Quarterly Economic Update

Economic conditions leading into 2025 present both challenges and opportunities for the rural landowner. The recent Federal Reserve interest rate cut marks a pivotal shift, potentially lowering borrowing costs for farmers who are managing debt or looking to refinance. Despite this relief, net farm income is forecasted to dip as crop receipts—particularly for corn, wheat, and soybeans—face headwinds from global competition. For farmers anticipating tighter margins, proactively leveraging more favorable financing conditions with flexible and customizable terms could be key in maintaining operational resilience for the road ahead.
