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.

Good afternoon. Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving last week. Sure was nice to take a few days and spend time with family. The corn market is having a really strong finish to end this week.

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.

Can’t believe it’s the middle of November already! Turkey day will be here before we know it. Hope everyone had a safe harvest this fall.

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.

Good afternoon. Well, we are back in the harvest swing once again. That was some much-needed precipitation though. Most needed it to get wheat planted, which hopefully there is a lot of that done this weekend.

It's been a busy few weeks in the fields! We've made a big jump on beans, and it’s crazy to think we’re not even at October 1st yet. The early beans coming in have been averaging around 50-55 bushels per acre with moisture levels right around that 10% mark.

We have seen more harvest progress this week, but some are running out of beans that are ready. From what I have gathered many folks are pleased with the yields of the early beans being in the mid 50’s.
