AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Farm Finance: U.S. farm debt has topped $605 billion, a record that may still understate what growers owe as borrowing from suppliers and other nontraditional lenders grows. High input costs and disrupted export markets are adding pressure. Fuel Costs: Kansas diesel averaged $6.09 a gallon for the week ending Oct. 3, squeezing farm and trucking budgets as fuel prices remain high. Energy and Data Centers: Kansas’ incentives for data-center construction are under debate in the governor’s race, with candidates split over the policy as electricity demand rises. Crop Research: A $1.9 million grant will support KU research into fungi that could help crops withstand drought. Manufacturing and Aviation: Great Bend’s Chamber marked Manufacturing Month with local companies, while Textron Aviation has launched a youth apprenticeship program in Kansas.
