Re: Floor Talk April 5, 2021

The market is clearly telling me today not to plant as much corn and to plant more soybeans.

My seed corn salesman is not gonna be happy with my phone call today and my soybean salesman is going to be happy.

Re: Old crop, new crop

The difference between old crop & new crop beans is still running about $1.46, old crop-new crop corn $0.65.  Somebody still wants new crop corn more than new crop beans.
