NAPELS, Fla. (RFD-TV) — Many growers are already making financial plans for next season. And while there is no “one size fits all” equation for supply chain trends, a new report from the Farmers Business Network (FBN) forecasts potential crop protection prices for 2026.
FBN’s John Appel joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report for a closer look at FBN’s 2026 Crop Protection Market Outlook Report.
In his interview with RFD-TV News, Appel discussed the primary factors they are monitoring amid growing uncertainty in operational business planning for 2026, as well as highlights from FBN’s report on crop protection trends.
Appel also explains how elevated input costs and supply chain risks play into those crop protection trends and the potential impacts on farmers’ decision-making for the year ahead.
