Changes in Michigan crops raise spring planting questions
Agricultural economist Mr Whitney Watkins notes growers plan modest acre changes for crops this spring. Total shifts could add 13 000 more acres of potatoes 147 000 more of corn and barley 7 000 more hay and 71 1 5 acres of potatoes depending on weather and price signals. The study highlights farmer risk from profit expectations influencing planting decisions amid nationwide variation in crop yields.
