    Terminal here says current and lots of room for fall contracts.
    Can't comprehend full bins now. I've never had so much money that I could let it sit and do nothing.

          Unions have their place in negotiation, but with this should come the responsibility and respect for the needs of the industry they serve.

            I've been thinking about public sector unions, I used to think they should be completely illegal. But I have reconsidered.
            They should be mandatory, but they should represent the taxpayers, not the employees.

              Elevator I regularly deliver to is suspending deliveries until there is a resolution to the shipping problem. FML, I was hoping to turn 2 hopper bins a couple times this year and prevent having to put a low value shit yielding crop on the ground. I dunno... just keep piling it on I guess. Just keep on "Livin the Dream!™️"

                I hear you.
                But you could be legally ordered to store your grain and told to build more bins.
                How soon we forget.

                  Is this for contracted grain or something that you wanted to sell?

                    Nothing contracted yet. In about a week once I had a real good idea on what the rest of the peas looked like yield wise, I was hoping to punch these hopper bins out so I could fill them again with durum. For the time being it looks like they'll have to stay full of peas.

                      I heard the same thing. No new contracted grain until the labor dispute is settled.
