At the start of the week, the markets picked up right where they left off, but they calmed down as we approached midweek. We had a big risk-off day on Thursday, and then they went right back up to end the week.

Good afternoon. This week will be quick and to the point. The USDA dropped yields for both corn and beans in today’s reports.

Good afternoon. It's hard to believe Christmas is next week, but here we are. The grain markets sure had their ups and downs this week. The bean complex this week grabbed most of the attention.

The grain markets continued their wild ride again this week. Soybean futures are once again testing lows on weaker crushing margins and lack of export demand.

Happy November 1st – what a harvest it has been up to this point! When is the last time you’ve been finished this early? It’s amazing to see the long stretches of good weather that we’ve had to knock out this crop in a hurry.

Farmers are beginning to wrap up bean harvest fairly quickly here. We are starting to see an increase in corn, and thankfully are still not seeing any VOM. I don’t think that we will see any as harvest progresses.
