Harvest is finishing up after some pretty tough growing conditions in much of eastern Kansas. Economic conditions also continue to be pretty tough. Unemployment remains high and economic growth is precarious at best. The difference between slow growth and an actual double-dip recession is probably very small. There is still a contagion threat from Europe and a worldwide economic slowdown looms over any recovery here in the United States. Politics will rule the day as the election cycle begins in earnest. Political maneuvering will affect not only economic policy for the near future but also government programs. The next Farm Bill debate will not only have a record number of stakeholders at the negotiating table, but also will be shaped by the shadow of record government deficits.
