Research summary
AI-generated

James Mintert studies agricultural economics with a focus on commodity markets (especially corn, soybeans, and cattle), farm price forecasting, and the adoption of precision agriculture technology and farm data software on U.S. farms. Much of the work is applied, aimed at helping farmers and industry stakeholders understand price basis, herd trends, trade policy impacts, and technology adoption. This research is largely published through extension-oriented and applied economics outlets rather than purely theoretical journals.
