A leading farm management specialist tells Western Illinois and Eastern Iowa producers that he’s cautiously optimistic about the ag economy.  Steve Johnson is with Iowa State University.  He says since last fall’s harvest, all commodity prices are up and that’s a good sign.

Johnson spoke to local producers in Muscatine earlier this month at an ag seminar hosted by CBI Bank and Trust and Lee Insurance Agency.
