North American season?

How is the crops in North America atm? I’ve seen some really drought affected crops in Canada. Your dry times are pushing prices high here in Australia.

Hi **** ...I am wondering have the Chinese opened there market to Australian Barley ...With our Canadian canola they closed the market to us in 2019-2020 and then in in late 2020 start of 2021 they came roaring back buying almost a record of it despite there market still being technically closed ....funny bunch!

Hi ***** yes they are a funny how they operate I think it’s to try and dominate the market. No China haven’t lowered there barley tariffs. They are buying small parcels though. Thankfully it hasn’t really affected the market as feed barley prices are around the $280 a tonne.

Crops here in northeast Illinois are good. Started out a cold dry spring, but then got just enough rain. We are dry now but corn should do 230 bu, per acre, soybeans 65 bu, per acre on good ground. Will start some brand in two weeks

My farm is located in the southeast portion of the US, Alabama to be specific, and we have had a very unseasonably wet year. The corn is being harvested now and is doing above average (175) and the soybeans are still growing. We would trade for some dry weather for a month.
