Farmer says he’s pleasantly surprised with 2022 and preparing for 2023

East Central Indiana farmer Aaron Chalfant says 2022 had its bright spots despite ongoing challenges in the ag industry.

“2022 yields for us and a lot of people I talked to were pleasantly surprising,” he says. “As dry as June was, as late as this crop went in, to see the yield we saw, we were pleasantly surprised. We have a good price for this crop and it’s maintaining and it’s not falling back.”

He says that’s helping farmers combat high costs of production.
