    Farmer confidence has dipped from near record highs

    Farmer confidence has dipped from near record highs


    The latest Rabobank Rural confidence survey shows 40 percent of farmers expect the rural economy to improve in the next year.

    Rabobank CEO Todd Charteris says while down, it's coming off high levels of confidence throughout the year.

    He says there are other positive signs.

    Charteris says investment intentions have also increased.
