nc ks | Above aph here, but to be fair our aph has taken a big hit the last several years. Our early dryland corn is doing what we expect it to do when planting it, but it actually backed down to these yields from much better potential so still a little disapointing. We had a lot of legit 200 bu corn at tassel, but it got backed down to the 120 to 160 range. Our june corn may still be better than average. I am sure glad we put fungicide on most everything. We can sure tell any areas we didn't.
Our beans are great. Our crop share beans are giving the landlord share more bushels than our total yield has been for several years.
There is a lot of excellent looking milo in the area.
Our basis will most likely be crap here for the foreseeable future as southern ks has a huge corn crop and that's where we send our corn. A lot more corn planted in the northern half of ks also. Filling bunkers of it here and usually they don't have enough corn to dedicate a full bunker to it.
I don't see what will help bean basis either. Hopefully we get some help on futures with some sales, but the elevators aren't sure where they are going to put all the beans. I forward contracted a fair amount just to Hopefully hold a spot. We are also hauling corn and beans out on basis push because harvest is slow and end users need product now.
While we don't matter to the futures market, there will be no need to rail any corn to southern ks for a couple years anyway, so basis up yonder may suffer even if you are under producing. Plenty of corn in the states is what I'm saying. Also, the central nebraska boys are pretty silent. Mucho bushels I'm guessing.
