    Whats wrong with this pic ??

    most farmers prepriced a lot canola wheat oats etc ? took all the risk seeding this crop , now theres half month of may with frost , drought , etc who is gonna pay when the market finally has to admit its a wreck , and this shit goes through the roof ? what a joke ! what do you think this is going to cost farmers to get out of this mess ? maybe we should just tell us we will deliver it when we get it , same as they do with cars when we are trying to deliver

            agree with hopper.


            Last year was 60% priced now. this year 5%.


            I've been predicting a runup in the markets like we've never seen before. It'll happen.

            Just wait... It'll happen. :P

              If we live/farm long enough there is always an issue to spike prices....how long can you suffer? How deep are your pockets? How do you handle stress?

                  I have usually made more money with shitty crops or poorer quality.

                  The grow more for less doesn't work.

                  Grow less for more. Every other industry works that way.

                  Case john deere gm etc etc.


                  We are fools thinking growing grain for a hungry world . Let them eat the traders paper contracts for a while. See how full they get.

                    I agree Bucket. 1994 Lentils 50 cents a pound and Canaryseed 56.5 cents because the contracts couldn't be filled. The guys with bins full were laughing, but the stars only line up once in awhile.
