Its obvious that the board of trade is not designed to benefit the farmer. The problem could be easily solved by not allowing short sales without physical ownership of the product and having multiple delivery points. Positive basis all over proves the point. Much more could be said but you may as well talk to a fence post.

good points. I would love to see a rule that makes it illegal to trade for 30 days after either taking or removing a paper position on the board of trade.

Fence posts are completely covered with big yellow grasshoppers in Oklahoma. They don't say much

The only reason they think there is so much grain in the farmers hands is because the numbers are not correct from last year yeilds were lower itll show it's face soon enough.

Using the futures is very beneficial. This is not hard. Learn to hedge and follow the trend. The old saying of the trend is your friend is soo true. Relieve the stress and quit fighting the markets, learn to use them and you can farm another year.

Feels like a staring contest… Who is going to blink first, the farmer or the funds? Eventually, the insurance companies are going to send a lot of cash out to farmers if this keeps up!

If only farmers could work together and regulate their production to help make more value in their product. And or we work together and hold our product until we have a good price

The NFO called that collective bargaining... Getting farmers all on the same page is like pushing a rope to herd up a bunch of cats.lol.

from what I am seeing /hearing in the hail damage is substantial. The new storm track may do more damage than good.

Farmers have their corn planted. Seed is paid for, fuel is paid for, chemicals paid, fertilizer paid, and 1st propertytaxes and insurance is paid. So if we're holding corn, there is no urgent need to sell.

I farm in East Central Missouri. Corn overall looks really good, but beans are really struggling with too much moisture and very poor weed control at this point. Low areas in Soybean fields are drowning out. I know it's a small area, but we could have a really good corn crop and really crap beans.

Cleaning up bin floors this morning. Told crop share landlord to never plan on selling anything between the 4th of July and the first of next year. The market steals 6 months of possible sales nearly every year. A demand driven market flips to a supply driven market and here we are.

Usually July and August are about the highest...

Summer 2022, economic bubble popped, fed went to restrict ...and decline began... bear grain market since ....harvest in south, over supply, lack of demand ... fed cant control supply, but they can restrict which kills demand....until the fed pivots, there will not be any decent prices

Put options have sure paid off this year.

How can we get the funds to deliver these cheap commodities?

Blame KZread farmers.. they only grow crops for video content and don’t care what the price of commodities are, they all build more bins and store more grain so they can show themselves loading and shipping their grains… 😂 Every Farmer should be a KZread, Instagram, TikTok influencer… Blame Zack Johnson.. Doug Larson Ivers Farms .. and the rest for your failing markets …

Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn, and cauldron bubble.

Looks like it might be a repeat of 2020. There is all this corn around until there isn't. Weather will reflect it soon enough. Very dry here in PA, not drought dry, but very dry. Hopefully prices will be corrected.

I don't think this has much to do with the fundamentals here. More to do with arbitrage trading. Buying the paper here and presenting the paper for delivery elsewhere where the price is considerably higher. France is/was $1.75 over for corn. China double the price. Also it would be prudent to throw in a social affect possibility. Disney will not hire white males. And there has been other issues on this by the "woke" culture emanating through our society. The grain farmers are both predominantly white and part of the wonderful basic nuclear family unit in the country that some would like destroyed. If given some true analytical thought, the possibility of these two scenarios being a greater part, in what seems to be a very unfair and manipulated market, would be considered. Who else produces necessary products and has to sell them for a loss? Last I knew farmers had tractors, tillage tools, and lights on these for an early "harvest" could be a solution and a rebuttal to this. Sorry to some, but this needed pointed out in today's world and by no means carries any prejudicial or racial ill will.

n/w central ohio. local grain pit guys says that the june wheat contracted, was 20,000 bushels shy of the 500,000 bushels contracted. they think the guys with bins might make up the estimated /predicted harvest. but they arent taking into account all the uncontracted acres. wait till the usda has to report the wheat harvest was much smaller than fantasized about. i dont know how much smaller but its smaller, maybe 20%

Hard to say here. Corn looks the worst. Looked really good coming up,,but all that rain and standing in ponds basically. Beans are just up and started gaining, they have a chance. There has been hail damage and flooding. There will be low yields and hope everyone has insurance. Praying for us all,,, around the globe. Best to get ready for some tough times.

Don’t grow beans in Western Canada … when is the last time you started them with a “10”? Not sure how farmers expect prices to rise when the bins are locked. Slow demand, hold back product, and have a big crop coming, equals pathetic prices. Farmers hurt farmers. If you hold product back you are hoping for a drought to have prices increase The 20% you hold back isn’t going to make your yr. Grow more for less. Never heard so many farmers say “they can F themselves I’m not selling, will build bins”. Now there’s a good investment when prices are plummeting and building bins are getting ridiculously expensive. Each to their own Genetics are pushing yields to new highs … problem is no one wants it.

You hit the nail on the head there. New crop is coming soon and I’ve got neighbors sitting on canola and barley like they are hens trying to hatch a group of chicks. The demand situation doesn’t justify it I feel. Especially when you look at our abilities to ship grain on the railways when a guy may want cash flow later on.

If The Joker was a farmer, he'd be saying "These markets need an enema!"

Ever thought of manipulated markets? (I come from the silver world)

It obvious this channel has no idea just what a grain farmer IS going through. If not drought, it's flooding... WTF?... In Canada & US...

The grains have the most affordable margins on the market. If you don't believe me check WTI Crude and the S&P 500 index. Grains have been 📉 trending down for some time. I think the farmers should be selling call options against their physical inventory. 🌽
