Then Vs. Now — An Overview of Farm Inflation from 1927 – Present

We have seen inflation take off in the last year posting a 6.2% rise in the CPI year-over-year through October 2021 – when thinking about a one-year raise, this is a large and problematic number. This prompts several questions on whether inflation has impacted farms’ profitability in the past few years — like what does this CPI number look like over the long haul (What do we mean by long haul, say about 100 years), and how does it affect farm profitability?

Luckily, RCM Ag Services recently launched a whitepaper that dives into this topic and more. In this paper, we discuss; energy prices that directly correlate to the input/fertilizer prices, the current cost of labor and machinery, understanding how inflationary pressures have changed the world in the last 100 years, a first-hand, short memoir, commentated by RCM Ag Services, Bob Miller, and more!
