It's a new month, and we are seeing green on the screen, even though StoneX came out with yield estimates that are higher than USDA’s numbers. There have been trouble spots in the corn belt, but their survey says that the rest of the corn belt is making up for it.

Good afternoon. Once again, another month has just absolutely flown by. Not much rain to report this week, as I believe I had a total of 3 tenths at home.

Good afternoon. Another week that has just flown by. I was a bit surprised on Monday night when crop ratings came out, and Ohio was lower for both corn and soybeans in the good to excellent category.

Good afternoon. Another week of the grain markets making new lows. The fund managers are aggressively adding to their short positions in all three of our major grain commodities.

Good afternoon. I hope everyone had a lovely July 4th holiday. Earlier in the week, we did see the bulk of the wheat harvest here in west central Ohio get wrapped up. Yields, for the most part, were good, not quite like last year, but they were good.

Good afternoon. This was a rough week for the grain markets. December corn broke to new lows as traders anticipate 90 million acres of corn plantings. They are also anticipating a big year-on-year increase in corn stocks.

Good afternoon. We have reached the summer solstice and the start of summer. It sure has felt like summer all week long, and the weekend looks hot too. The potential for a shot of rain and some cooler temperatures on Sunday sure will be welcomed.

Good afternoon. This week was yet another wild one in the grain markets. We worked our way lower for the majority of the week, and then Thursday came and we won back most of those losses.

Good afternoon. Hard to believe we are at another month's end, but here we are. Scattered rains since the weekend have kept field activity this week at a minimum.

Good afternoon. Hard to believe we are on the Memorial Day weekend. Another month has absolutely flown by. Planting progress made great strides this week.
