[QUOTE="jltrent, post: 1675509, member: 21075"] Seems I am always in the wrong business as they never see a price jump, but inputs cost more. Food and grain prices are up, but farmers get the same old piece of pie. I had a neighbor that thought with the price of meat in the stores cattle farmers must be making a killen. Same piece of pie, maybe 15%-20% of what the consumer pays (end price) and do most of the work and have most of the risks. With inputs jumping either farmers get more pie out of the products or an economic profit is no longer possible. [/QUOTE]
