�I truly believe we're at a golden age of agriculture. Global demand is at an all-time record high, and global supplies are at all-time record lows," said Matt Rush, director of the Texas Farm Bureau. "Production costs are going to be valuable enough that younger people are going to have the opportunity to be involved in agriculture. "The Department of Agriculture has programs aimed at developing more farmers and at increasing interest in locally grown food. The National Young Farmers' Coalition has also been pushing for state and federal policy changes to make it easier for new farmers.

Does the underlined "valuable enough" mean "good value for money"?

Thanks

Honestly, it doesn't make sense at all! If you changed it to "low enough" then the rest is fine.

I would say change "production costs" to "Products�" to make sense.
