China will continue to auction its corn stocks into May as the National Grain Trade Centre announced Wednesday a fourth consecutive clearance of up to 8 million mt.
this makes for about 30. mmt of that stuff going away. Will be nice to see them get current and not have a massive stockpile that traders use as an excuse to whipsaw the price.

Pruitt needs a "You're fired"
Brazil’s Agrural agricultural agency has warned that the second ‘safrinha’ corn crop is in danger as the country’s dry season arrives early, just as the crop is entering a key phase of its development.
I'm not convinced we we won't get our turn shortly...
these are my three big stories today.
Two out of three are positive for corn prices .

Bids for rail freight to take soybeans from the Midwest to the Pacific Northwest have halved in the past two days as buyers of soybeans slashed cash bids.
Someone had extra trains booked and just sitting around? The train booking system is a head scratcher to start with.

Re: TID BITS
basis bids in Sw feeding country are improving for corn old crop and new. some +35 delivered in fall.
Elevators at +5 corn
Ethanol new crop corn at +15 dec.......... corn today at +25 july or $4.21
Coop new crop MILO at -40 corn or $3.72
Ethanol plant milo--Liberal Ks..... delivered today +5 dec c or $3.92 new crop ethanol is -25 or $3.87
milo is not worthless and stop listening to those who said that...... those reports were full of lies..... like the ships truned around and came back
The bid paid by the chinese importer was $6.72 per bushel ---- SF article
Price paid by second purchaser Saudi Arabia----- $4.48 per bushel. ---SF article
US exporters came out fine whether they had to pay back or not. And the US milo Market was not hurt. Question is who picked up the additional freight? my assumption is Saudi's.... but i'm not sure.

Re: TID BITS
Corn is looking at an interesting 2 weeks ahead.......
It will attempt to run up to areas it hasn't seen since last July,,, can it establish new highs on a third attempt..... and will we get some priced in the next 10 days??
Jim will. That's my bet... and I think I will. And hope it goes higher.
Primarily it is planted acres and how timely And how dry or wet.... a good 10 days

Re: TID BITS
It began yesterday afternoon. Started on field that is almost always the last one done because it is usually the wettest. Planting several notches deeper than normal to get in moisture.
