Afternoon Grain Commentary 4-25-2019 – After a weaker open, market saw some upside, likely on weather. Wheat is down a penny to 3.59 cash, milo is up a penny to 2.88 cash, corn is up a penny to 3.41 cash, and beans are up 4 cents to 7.09 cash. Some hoping for short covering in the market to add a little strength, but isn’t highly likely. Flooding in the Mississippi River has dozens of CHS fertilizer barges trapped, with no movement to get crop nutrients to corn farmers in the upper Midwest at critical times. Weather in SWKS will be warm and dry into the weekend. Have a great afternoon!

Morning Grain Comments 4-25-2019 – The grain markets were mixed again during the night session with soybeans again trying to find strength with continued selling of wheat and corn.  Cooler temperatures and possible snow are in the forecast for the upper U.S. corn belt so we will see how that develops and impacts planting.  The export sales report this morning showed 30.8 million bushels of corn sales with was within the pre-report trade estimates but still may be viewed as disappointing while the soybeans sales were at 22.7 million bushels which was also within the trade estimates, and the wheat sales showed 15.6 million bushels of old crop sales and 8.3mb of new crop sales so the report went pretty much as expected.  In the last fifteen minutes of the night session the nearby grains were lower with corn ending the session just above the low for the session.  In world grain trade news Saudi Arabia has reportedly tendered for 22 million bushels of wheat.  At the end of the night session, Kansas City May wheat was unchanged from Wednesday’s close, Chicago May corn was 2.75 cents lower, and Chicago May soybeans were 0.5 cent higher.  Have a great day.
