Summary
• The United States and South Dakota economies are expected to continue to grow at a moderate pace in 2015, but at growth rates lower than before the great recession.
• Challenges remain at the federal level regarding monetary and fiscal policy. The Federal Reserve has a delicate balancing act over the next several years in terms of normalizing its balance sheet and acting on interest rates.
• The Agriculture sector has been a major boost to overall economic activity in South Dakota the past several years. However, lower crop prices are having downward pressure on farm income in 2014.
• Lower crop prices, transportation issues, and decreasing farm real estate value are concerns looking to 2015 and beyond.
