The Purdue/CME Group Ag Economy Barometer rose from 123 in September to 126 in October, while its Current Conditions Index increased by 16 points. The Farm Financial Performance Index rose from 90 to 94 and the Farm Capital Investment Index climbed from 39 to 55, although high input costs remained a key concern and only 20% of respondents said it was a good time to invest in machinery and buildings.
