The Index of Future Expectations also rose, but the increase was to 132, just 6 points above its July reading.<\/p>\n<p>Before the August survey was conducted, the USDA announced intentions to provide aid to farmers impacted by importers\u2019 tariffs. When asked specifically about the relief plan\u2019s expected impact, farmers were split on whether they believed the plan addressed concerns about tariffs\u2019 impact on their farm\u2019s income with 47 percent saying \u201cnot at all\u201d and a total of 47 percent saying either \u201ccompletely\u201d (4 percent) or \u201csomewhat\u201d (43 percent).<\/p>\n<p>In August, producers were again asked how likely they thought it was that a trade war would reduce their farm\u2019s net income. While 71 percent (virtually unchanged from July) felt their farm income will be negatively impacted, respondents who expect to see an income reduction of 20 percent or more fell from 35 percent in July to 26 percent on the August survey. \u201cFarmers are still concerned trade conflicts will reduce their farm\u2019s income, but some farmers clearly scaled back the magnitude of losses they expect compared to what they told us in July,\u201d said Mintert.<\/p>\n<p>This less pessimistic view also impacted producers\u2019 expectations for the future of U.S. agriculture. In August, there was a small increase in respondents expecting good times in agriculture in the year ahead, rising to 22 percent from 19 percent in July. The improvement was reinforced by a significant downturn in those expecting bad times, which fell to 52 percent in August versus 61 percent in July. Similar readings occurred for attitudes on whether it was a good time to make large farm investments, which improved to 26 percent in August compared to 20 percent in July.\u00a0 Read the full August Ag Economy Barometer report at <a href=\"http:\/\/purdue.edu\/agbarometer\">http:\/\/purdue.edu\/agbarometer<\/a>.
