The NC Chamber's 2026 Ag Allies Conference gathered national and state agriculture leaders to discuss North Carolina's farm economy. Speakers said ad hoc payments have not fixed underlying economics for row-crop farms facing input costs that outpace prices.
They also highlighted trade market access, with the US having signed 10 new agreements since 2025.
The discussion reflects ongoing margin pressure on row-crop farms, which can affect planting and feed demand over time. It contains no new supply or price shock for feed commodities.
