Indiana Farm Income Outlook Report, Spring 2026

The Spring 2026 Indiana Farm Income Outlook, published by the Rural and Farm Finance Policy Analysis Center (RaFF), provides updated projections for Indiana farm profitability through 2027. The report highlights a projected 28% decline in Indiana net farm income in 2026—driven primarily by lower livestock receipts and higher production costs—while increased government payments partially offset the downturn. It also examines trends in crop and livestock markets, input costs, and policy support, offering insight into the factors shaping farm financial performance and risk in the year ahead.
