Friday: We are now closed for the day.  With the weather forecast, we anticipate being closed for the weekend.

The free marketing period for corn is ending this week so you need to figure out whether you are paying the $4 in charge and letting the $3/month clock start ticking or just cash out. One of my "never sayings" is never leave corn in commercial storage. Market usually rallies just about enough to pay the storage. You can get 5.5% GICs now so figuring the value of money in addition to the costs, you need more than $5/ month rally for break even. A $30/t rally in the spring is break even. That's a significant rally. I'm not convinced the risk reward scenario makes sense. Maybe it's $20 lower in spring? Nobody knows. I would focus on the revenue not on the price. The amazing yields are making things profitable and you grew it for money so you might as well sell it and use the next rally for forward contracting new crop IMO

Under no circumstances can we take in grain that has treated seed in it. ABSOLUTELY NONE. We believe that part of the issue this year is that people are broadcasting treated seed in their soybean fields, and since we have not had rain, the seed it not growing; it's sitting on top of the leaves that are carpeting the ground, and being picked up by combines.  If you have planted wheat by broadcasting it, then you need to wait for it to rain to get the seed started growing before you combine the beans.  Also make sure your seed equipment is cleaned out properly.
