Freight costs crush Kansas farmer markets
A Rush County farmer notes shipping cattle costs rose from 35 to 100 dollars per load while prices fell from about 1 500 to 1 600 dollars. Freight and commissions often exceed returns on sheep and hay shipments. Widespread reports say freight costs range from 10 to 28 cents per bushel on grain and sorghums and have driven many to abandon shipments to terminal markets.
