The US agricultural industry has been shaped by fluctuations in crop prices, production levels and yields. While prices for core US crops such as corn and wheat remain above historical averages, they have moderated from the peaks seen in 2021-2022. This moderation has clashed with high production costs, particularly for inputs like seeds and fertilizers, which have not decreased in line with prices and revenues. As a result, farmers are encountering tighter profit, even as industry revenue has grown overall. Despite the pressures from input costs, technological advancements such as precision agriculture are helping to offset some challenges by improving efficiency and production. Overall, revenue has grown at a CAGR of 2.7% to reach an estimated $586.5 billion after a decrease of 2.7% in 2025. In tandem with these price and production shifts, consumer preferences are exerting significant influence over the agricultural landscape. The demand for sustainable and ethically-produced livestock products is rising, prompting producers to adapt their practices to meet changing consumer expectations. This shift comes amid severe drought conditions forcing cattle herd liquidations, a move that has boosted revenues through higher prices and sales volumes but ultimately stresses long-term supplies. Meanwhile, climate change continues to introduce strong production fluctuations, as evidenced by altering pest and disease patterns and extreme weather events disrupting traditional farming cycles. Adaptation strategies, such as planting drought-resistant crops and investing in climate-smart technologies, are becoming increasingly common as farmers strive to maintain resilience. In the coming five years, the sector will struggle to maintain revenue as prices decline in key segments and climate change adds a great deal of volatility. Sector revenue is forecast to decline at a CAGR of 1.4% to reach $546.4 billion in 2030. Crop prices are projected to decline over the next decade, while yields are expected to trend upward due to ongoing technological advancements. Despite drops in overall export revenue and competition from producers such as China and Brazil, emerging markets, particularly in Asia and Africa, will present new avenues for growth as demand for diverse agricultural products increases. Additionally, the potential for income generation through participation in carbon markets and adoption of nature-positive farming practices offers promising revenue diversification. The increasing frequency of extreme seasons and weather events, however, will make production planning challenging and exaggerate farmers' dependence on agricultural services, agrochemicals, irrigation and other expenses, putting pressure on profit as farmers try to maintain yields.
