Iowa State University economist Bob Wisner forecasts a modest 3 percent GNP growth this year with a potential 5 percent real growth and about 4 percent inflation component. He cites lower interest rates, a stimulative federal budget, rising housing starts, and stronger industrial production as signs of economic expansion that could raise meat and farm product demand while agricultural employment remains tight but easing.
