According to the USDA, net farm income (a broad measure of profits) is forecast to increase $4.0 billion (4.8 percent) to $88.0 billion in 2019, after increasing in both 2017 and 2018.

Wieman of Wieman Land & Auction Co. will be leading a breakout session on this topic at our Eye on Agriculture conference, happening November 13th at the Sioux Falls Convention Center.
