SUMMARY: In 2024, U.S. farm income is expected to decrease by 4% from 2023, primarily due to lower cash receipts from commodity crops, according to the USDA. Projected net cash farm income is $158.8 billion, representing a 3.5% decline after adjusting for inflation, yet still above the 20-year average.
