Abstract

Using this planning budget, peanut producers may estimate their costs and returns for 2026. Table 1 presents estimates for GMO furrow-irrigated peanut production in southeast Missouri. Assumptions were based on price forecasts as of October 2025. Detailed prices and practices are summarized in Tables 2 and 3. The production practices used to develop these cost estimates are common for southeast Missouri farms. Use the “Your estimate” column to plan your operation’s costs and returns for 2026.
