Nebraska corn farmers poised to plant 10.6 million acres in 2025

According to the March Prospective Plantings report released by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), Nebraska corn farmers are expected to plant 10.6 million acres of corn in 2025. If realized, this would translate to a significant economic investment of nearly $3.1 billion in the state’s economy over a two-month period, as calculated by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s crop budgets. This investment includes inputs such as seed, fuel and fertilizer, but excludes land costs, labor and equipment.
