What are farmers really thinking right now?

The latest Purdue University/CME Group Ag Economy Barometer offers a unique look inside the minds of U.S. producers—and some of the findings may surprise you.



In this new YouTube presentation, Purdue agricultural economist Michael Langemeier explains what June's survey results reveal about:
  • How farmers view AI and data-driven decision tools
  • Why high input costs continue to weigh on profitability
  • What's behind weak equipment investment
  • Expectations for agricultural exports and free trade
  • Why farmland values remain resilient despite softer producer sentiment
Whether you're a producer, lender, agribusiness professional, or agricultural researcher, these survey results provide valuable context for understanding today's farm economy—and where producers think it's headed next.
