Abstract

Using this budget, rice producers may estimate their costs and returns for 2026. Table 1 presents estimates for flood-irrigated production of conventional and hybrid rice in southeast Missouri. Assumptions were based on price forecasts as of Nov2025. Detailed input and machinery assumptions are summarized in Tables 2 and 3. Use the “Your estimate” column to plan your operation’s costs and returns for 2026.
