Agricultural Economic Summit Highlights Growing Connection Between Agriculture and Energy

Nathan Kauffman and Ty Kreitman

Economic Bulletin, 2024, 4

Abstract: The agriculture and energy sectors have become more tightly connected as renewable energy increases demand for input crops and creates alternative income opportunities for farms. Industry experts underscored these links at the Kansas City Fed’s Agricultural Economic Summit in May. Despite some longer-run uncertainties, Summit participants expect energy investments and developments to have a significant influence on the future structure of ag and commodity markets.
