National
Grain Market
ST. JOSEPH, MO
DECEMBER 13, 1995
Lots of stamina in grain and soybean
bids, not even pausing for a breather after a
seven day steep uphill climb. Stronger bids
ran right over profit taking and farmer sell
ing. Exports supplying much of the oxy--
gen. How much further to the top of the
hill? Wheat to 1 cent lower to 1 cent high
er. Com steady to 1 cent higher. Sorghum 1
to 3 cents higher. Soybeans 6 to 7 cents
higher. No export sales reported today.
Price quotes beginning to look high to fore-
ign buyers. Further Government incentives
are in jeopardy as farm deal still not exact
ly finalized.
Some fanner selling, but this not the sea
son of the year for tax purposes and other
reasons. Rent it already paid out of early
Fall receipts and... why sell when prices
keep going up? Cold weather increased
domestic livestock feed consumption.
However, when producers get their next
feed bill, they are going to wring the roos
ter’s neck and tend the old cow and sow to
market. Calf prices are headed south and
will not pay to keep the cow another year.
Hog prices straggling to hold 45.00. Poul
try producers are not getting rich a current
feed/price ratios. Not a very bright picture
for meat lovers. We may find out how
important grains and soybeans are in out
cost of living index. No more set asides
and a record crop next year would put a
smile on everyone’s face.
