It kind of makes scene that prices would go up here in the U.S.. But since we export a large portion of the worlds corn, and corn is used as animal feed, process food filler, and most recently fuel. It will price increases in many different areas. The drought has effected 88% of the corn crop (see the drought footprint HERE.). Beef is expected to go up 4-5% next year and eggs, pork and dairy to go up slightly less. To see the full article please go HERE.
Until next time....
Love, Peace, & Chicken Grease.
