    Why is Cargill so concerned that we price Durum!

    Just off phone with our rep he wants us to lock in
    some Durim at 7.50 #2.
    Have to because Monday were dropping our bids.
    please have to.
    For one thing durum is hard to grow in our area
    grade is tricky with all rain. Awsome crop to much
    fuzzzz. Blah blah so will gamble with durum.

    I think $7.50 is the bottom.

              I hate grain companies as much as the
              next guy but one thing I appreciate is
              giving me a heads up when prices are
              moving down the next day on grain and
              when fertilizer is moving up the next
              day. I rarely make a move on this info
              but I like knowing about the change,
              just me though.

                The "fleece" always looks nicer if the animal(or farmer)is groomed prior to the fleecing.

                All a matter of courtesy and good PR.
