$13 beans, not exactly but how close we get come Nov?

 Clearly, these prices are due to the diminished prospects for South American crops, it's dry and may stay dry but you better believe that if it rains there these prices won't hold.

Clearly, the dry weather in Brazil offers a possible opportunity to at least lockin some better prices for next year's crops.

But if you look at prices next fall compared to those through early summer, the traders are betting US producers will deliver.  Maybe, maybe not.   I'm thinking that if the dry continues harvest prices will come up to current nearby prices.

If that's the case, I'll want to price some new crop beans.  The question becomes, "what's the target?"

Buy a put or contract and buy a call.  Big Al was saying the close on Thursday opened the door to $15, the Fibonacci watchers say $14 but those are old crop prices.  Old Beans have a week or 2 like they just had, they could be $15 by mid Jan.

The Brazil crop will in all likelihood be as big or bigger than last year simply because of increased acreage.

Argentina will likely be somewhat reduced because of dryness and political turmoil.

Will be interesting  to see corn acreage this coming year. 

Lots of nh 3  already applied. Iowa plants corn.

Re: Long term dry

Arlen Suderman expects to squeeze 18 months out of this demand driven rally.  And there`s talk of the Dollar crashing...but isn`t the Dollar always just about to crash?   🙂

Re: Long term dry

Farmers being sold out is absolutely key to going to $15.00 per bushel maybe even $17.00!

supply report won’t show it but we are essentially out of soybeans.
