Farm Analysis Report

The Nebraska Farm Business, Inc. report indicates that the corn enterprise was the most profitable enterprise option for Nebaska producers studied in 2006. The farm business report can be used to benchmark to measure how your farm is performing, according to Tina Barrett, director of the Nebraska Farm Business, Inc. Their analysis shows that the average net farm income studied represented about an 11% return on equity.
