Comments: |
| Harvest has been moving along but only on early bean varieties. Some corn fields are 15-20% and are being harvested. Some stalk issues but overall decent stalk quality. Prices have dropped due to outside forces such as Greek economic problems. Supply/demand fundamentals continue to favor strong prices. Current lower prices allow buying opportunties for end users. Missouri River flood damage is substantial in some fields - sand deposits and channeling. DR |
