Reader comment on: House Majority Leader Warns of Inflation

Corn, Wheat, and Soybeans are far under their prices of last year, let alone 2 years ago. Today corn was 3.67 a bushel, while in 2012 it was over 7. This shows up in reduced spending on new tractors. However with the exception of pork where the virus is still killing a lot of piglets it should result in cheaper chicken, turkey, and in a year or so beef.
