* Projected 2020 Commodity Title Payments | Given increases in prices since the late summer of 2020, commodity title payments for the 2020 marketing year will be limited. Price Loss Coverage (PLC) payments are not projected for corn and soybeans.
* Seed Corn this Fall | Seed costs for corn have trended up over time. Genetic improvements and biotechnology use in hybrids have led to higher yields, contributing to the general increases in seed prices and per acre seed costs.
* Cash Rents | It is likely the better than expected grain farm income in 2020 and prospects for good profits in 2021 will cause higher cash rents in the future.
