...for Oklahoma. Kansas and nebbish can't be much better. Drought, hail, bugs, late frosts, etc.

My baby brother is crying in his beer in Wichitittay...in addition to selling Timpte grain hoppers and Wilson cattle pots, he owns a couple dozen grain hoppers he leases out to custom cutters and such. Its looking grim for the season.:(

Here's to those in the wheat biz, either directly or indirectly. They need OUr good wishes right now.

You mean winter wheat. Spring wheat is grown up North. That being said. HRW futures are at 9 year highs. However Southeast Nebraska wheat is pretty decent, so my relatives except for the ones in Texas should be fine. The wheat supply situation has been excaberbated by bad crops world wide and strong exports. The wheat situation will also pull corn higher.

I am convinced part of the reason America is turning into a nation of fat***es is because far too few people understand where and how they get their food. Plus if the oil people can get excited about oil, I can get excited about the commodities I will be making a living off of very soon.
