Bruce Huffaker, president of North American Potato Market News and author of Potato Country’s Market Report column, has sold his business to Ben Eborn, owner of Eborn Agribusiness LLC.
Eborn has a master’s degree in agricultural economics from the University of Idaho. His graduate studies focused on farm and ranch financial management and commodity marketing.
He spent 12 years working for the University of Idaho as the county extension agent in Teton County, Idaho. He then spent six years as an extension agricultural economist. His work focused on farm and ranch management, production economics and farm succession. Eborn has been responsible for developing the Idaho potato costs and returns estimates for the past five years.
Huffaker will work with Eborn on a consulting basis during the transition.
