Average net farm income was $154,698 in 2006 for the 110 farms included in this annual report of the Southwestern Minnesota Farm Business Management Association. This is a 5% increase over the average income of $147,862 in 2005. In constant dollars, 2006 was slightly more profitable than the previous year and was again one of the most profitable years in the last 20 for association members (Figure 1). Outstanding crop prices coupled with above average crop yields more than compensated for reduced profitability of hog and beef enterprises. As in previous years, the actual profit levels experienced by individual farms vary greatly from the overall average profit. When the net farm incomes for the 110 farms in the report are ranked from lowest to highest,... |

Average net farm income was $147,862 in 2005 for the 107 farms included in this annual report of the Southwestern Minnesota Farm Business Management Association. This is a 50% increase over the average income of $98,362 in 2004. In constant dollars, 2005 was the most profitable year for association members in the past 20. Outstanding crop yields, high profits for hog operations and higher government payments were factors that combined to make 2005 a very profitable year for the average association farm. As in previous years, the actual profit levels experienced by individual farms vary greatly from the overall average profit.

Average net farm income was $98,362 in 2004 for the 125 farms included in this annual report of the Southwestern Minnesota Farm Business Management Association. This is a 2% increase over the average income of $96,404 in 2003. In constant dollars, 2004 was the third most profitable year for association members in the past 20. Higher crop prices, outstanding corn yields, and high profits for hog operations were factors that combined to make 2004 a very profitable year for the average association farm. As in previous years, the actual profit levels experienced by individual farms vary greatly from the overall average profit. When the net farm incomes for the 125 farms in the report are ranked from lowest to highest, the resulting graph shows how much... |

Average net farm income was $242,267 in 2007 for the 107 farms included in this annual report of the Southwestern Minnesota Farm Business Management Association. Average earnings increased by 57% over the average of $154,698 in 2006. In constant dollars, 2007 was the most profitable year for association members in the last 20 years (Figure 1). In fact, we have to go back to 1973 to find a more profitable year for association members. 2007 continued a steady climb in average earnings since 2001. Above average prices for corn, soybeans, and other crops more than compensated for reduced profitability of hog and beef enterprises. As in previous years, the earnings of individual farms varied greatly from the overall average. The median or middle income was... |
