DAILY NATIONAL GRAIN
SUMMARY
Upcoming crop production estimates
and gulf soybean bids getting the press in
the grain and soybean trade this week.
Prices highly mixed today in pie harvest
season trade. Wheat 3 cents lower to 6
cents higher. Com 2 to 4 cents higher.
Sorghum 5 to 9 cents higher. Soybeans 5 to
16 cents lower. A break in wheat prices and
export announcements showing some
light. Price quotes and year to date export
figures are both substantially below a year
ago. This year’s com crop made, but cooler
weather delaying drying and expansion of
harvest. There will be no frost scarce price
rally this year. No export announcements
this week. Foreign business needs to pick
up if those 9.2-9.5 billion bushel produc
tion estimates pan out, especially the high
side figure. It is amazing how many trailer
trucks one big new modem combine can
keep busy hauling com, but this crop is not
in the bam yet. Estimated bean production
guesses are not getting as much attention at
com. Most experts are just saying record
crop and bemoaning expected price breaks
by peak harvest. Gulf bids dropped 73
cents in the past three days and some
crashers are dropping basis 75 to 80 cents
in the next IS days. However, carry over
stocks at/or near record low levels. Also,
the bean is a multi faceted producing little
vegetable with numerous by-products and
usage increases each year. After pressing
financial obligations are satisfied more
than usual large numbers of farmers are
contemplating storage. At what price level
holding sets in varies in a wide range from
producer to producer depending on what
farm advisors, extension people, bankers,
tax man, neighbor and wife recommends.
