The Omaha World Herald in the Business Section has a interesting article on the Farmland values that are up. "Farmland values in Nebraska increased 23 percent from 2007 to 2008, the largest jump in the 30 years that the University of Nebraska-Lincoln has conducted the annual survey."  "Corn demand from the rapidly growing ethanol industry in the state fueled prosperous returns across the corn-producing areas of the state,"

Great blog. Thank you for that information. We are flooded with deals for biofuel. It is great to know the corn crops grew 23%. That means we will have a great year in this arena. Thanks, Keith

Forget about the tortillas.  The real issue here is that farmers are growing more corn and less other crops.  The result is an increase in prices of soy, wheat, and most importantly hops!  Increases in the price of hops have already produced 10-20% increases in the price of beer in countries such as Belgium.  Wait til it happens here.  Talk about Depression!!

Great information!  While everything else is going down in values, its kind of weird to hear that something is going up!  Make it a great one!
